what is one thing you absolutely need to write?
For a deadline: I need to write a short story that is respectable and good enough to send to a potential publisher.
For myself: I need to write a story about leaving and homecoming, about friends and family and love and how to find out if you have told the truth when you are not sure anymore. I need to write about the beautiful pointless passion of people. And I need to write about the gravestone with the poem etched into it, because I cannot stop thinking about it.
For Tin: If you've ever had any 'paranormal' experiences, which ones stand out the most? (Sorry if this is kinda irrelevant to the world, I'm not too familiar with your WiP yet so I don't know how prevalent paranormal occurrences are 😅)
Tin: I’ve never met a ghost, if that’s what you are asking. But I don’t see why everyone insists on hanging out in empty buildings and graveyards all the time. I prefer to not take the risk of getting into a fight with something I can’t shoot.(There is magic in my world, but this is not experienced as ‘paranormal‘ by the inhabitants. Though the paranormal does not really exist in this world, it is reffered to as ‘the occult‘ and some people do believe in it).
hello I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. The anonymity of tumblr means that I associate my idea/image of you with your icon and sometimes I look at people’s icons and I’m like ‘hmmm….what is that and why?’
so pls reblog this and comment in the tags the meaning behind your icon and why you chose it. this is a social experiment. do it for science pls.
Oh my, thank you so much!! This drawing is beautiful. You have captured him so well, he looks exactly as I imagined him. The colour scheme is lovely, those gold and green shades fit the aesthetic I had in mind. And since his last name is Sun, ‘golden boy’ is perfect! ^^. Thanks so much again for using your time and art to make this.
A golden boy for @everywriterneedsfanart!
Eleven traumatized magicians long to leave society, unknowingly start a squad war and end up trying to save said society.
Short Lesbian and overly dramatic man-child peacocking over innocent bisexual red head
Everyone is grabbing each others hands. And patting backs. And slinging arms over shoulders. Please stop touching.
At this rate, my character’s have cocked their heads so much someone’s neck is about to fucking crack.
Is it cool to send in like MBTI / Zodiac stuff for oc aesthetics?
I must admit that I know absolutely nothing about either. Though internet goes a long way, I would probably need some more info to make anything that fits your OC. That said, of course you can send this with the rest of the info, and I’ll see what I can make of it!
Hi!! I haven't been here in a while and I'm not sure how long ago you posted that "character appearances" thing, but I wanted you to know that I love all of them (especially Zinc lol) so much, and they all sound so adorable!!
Aaah, thanks so much! It hasn’t been too long, actually, and I would still be happy to read this if it had been months ^^.Zinc would be getting you a bouquet of wildflowers right now.
This blog will combine three things I love dearly: writing, talking about writing, and aesthetics. So if you have an amazing OC for which you crave an aesthetic moodboard or Instagram page - tell me all about them, and I will make you one! After all, every writer needs fanart.
