This Is A Very Personal Take, But I Absolutely Hate The Words "muscles" And "rippling" Put Next To Each

Kirby is a star!!!

really hilarious and unsexy when hetero romantasy authors refer to love interests as males and females. you sound like david attenborough narrating a special documentary on two turtles humping in the mud

I’m taking a stand and I refuse to sit back down

Reblog if you're okay with receiving asks for backstory info on any/all of your fics.

If not all, specify which ones in the tags.

“jesus died for you” well i didn’t ask him to do that and my therapist says i am not responsible for other peoples actions

Hey fanfiction writers: If no one's ever told you this before, it's not just fanfiction.

It's something you spent hours, days, maybe even months on, pouring your heart out onto a page because you were so full of passion and thoughts about a story or characters, you felt like you were going to explode if you didn't get it out. Maybe you lost sleep because your mind was racing with ideas or you forgot to eat or drink water because you were so focused. Maybe your back aches from being hunched over for so long, unmoving. Maybe you even felt like you were going a little feral because you were so excited about what you were creating, or were frustrated when you got stuck. Either way, you put your heart, mind, soul, and body into making something.

It's okay to want people to read it, and it's okay if you're disappointed that they don't or it doesn't get as much of a reaction as you were hoping for. Humans are social creatures. Sure, we write for ourselves, but we also share because the joy of doing so is just as powerful as the joy of the process. Of having created something.

We all experience that joy and that disappointment, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

So it's okay. It's not just fanfiction.

The cast of the Original Trilogy had cliched, boring character concepts that were executed wonderfully enough for it not to matter. 

 The cast of the Prequel Trilogy had interesting concepts that were executed poorly enough to make them seem utterly stupid. 

The cast of the Sequel Trilogy had amazing, thought-provoking concepts that were executed in the town square and put up on pikes as a warning to others.

Thought I'd try reblogging this, since Tumblr is being dumb about my posts not showing up in tags. If you've seen this already, please ignore, lol

Hello and Welcome

SJ | late 20s | ao3 | 18+ blog

Glad to see you've found my little pocket of Tumblr. I thought it'd be nice to have a 'get to know me' post. I decided to create my blog so that I could connect to the communities I write for, share and appreciate art, and maybe throw out my thoughts from time to time. You can call me SJ or Vulpine, or if you point and say "hey, you", that works, too. I go by sapphirejournalist on ao3.

Works in Progress

o Oh God, What the F*ck, and Other Tales - Inuyasha | Sesshōmaru/OC

o They Who Hunt - Baldur's Gate 3 | AU | Astarion/Tav (not yet posted)

o Currently working on a hate/fix-it fic for the series House of Night, because good gods, those books cause me rage

Completed

o To Walk the Path of Death - Dragon Age: Veilguard | Solavellan

o Dragon Age: Rise of the Dread Wolf - Dragon Age | AU | Solavellan (written several years ago while waiting for what became Veilguard)

Unfortunately, while I write a lot, I tend to only focus on one story at a time. I really try not to start works I won't finish. I'm looking forward to posting more in the future, but I find it overwhelming to try and juggle posting multiple stories at once.

If you're interested, please always feel free to ask me about my works and characters! I'd to talk to any readers who have thoughts they'd like to share. In the meantime, thanks for dropping by, and have a lovely day/night
