It’s really great to have someone’s support before you accomplish something big because that’s when you need it the most, so here’s some friendly ghost support for the times before people recognize your greatness!
Less magic schools. More magic universities. Unlearn the simplified models of your secondary education. Discover how to reference scrolls written by a wizard possessed by a different wizard. Identify bias in the voices that whisper from beyond the veil. Have your institution be accused of promoting a Merlinist agenda. Become addicted to energy potions.
From chrisfox:
In case you need some inspiration while you write… Here is “Written? Kitten! “
Basically, it gives you a place to type your words. Then in increments of several hundred words, you get a picture of kitten. I completely forgot about this… but it’s a thing of beauty.
We’ve featured Written? Kitten! on Yeah Write before but we should probably feature it basically every day because it is the greatest invention ever and the combination of my two favorite things.
Lol 😂

What is "dreampunk"? I've head of it recently...& how would one go about writing a dreampunk novel?
It’s like if you took the plot of Inception, the logic of Alice in Wonderland, the setting of Bladerunner or Suckerpunch or any of the Bioshock games or Dune or whatever, and then put them all into one story.
This genre is extremely specific and there isn’t much out there in terms of literature, so I can’t really give examples of what’s been done and what tropes are necessary. At this point it’s kind of a hit or miss when entering the genre. The main requirement is that you include something relating to dreams/nightmares, but that doesn’t automatically make your story dreampunk.
Anonymous asked: One piece of advice I hear given is to read books to learn how to write. How do I do that?
