So peak...
nole design breakdown
So apparently Barns and Nobles just…let you print out your own books for little cost? I had always wondered of those who make their fanfiction into physical things to read rather than through a screen, but I didn't think it would be this easy.
The idea of printing my own fic into a physical book just sounds nice for some reason.
Actually, printing anyone's fic into a physical book to re-read just sounds awesome. As long as you aren't planning to sell it, it's a nice way of solidifying it, making it easy to re-read, and being easier on the eyes!
That said, asking the author would be a nice gesture at the minimum, since sure they can't do much to stop you (especially if it's with copyrighted material), but I suppose it would be a dick move.
Like, seriously go look for yourself it's like less then $10 for 200 pages or less it's amazing.
So, I enjoy stuff that is Out Of Context from within fanfiction. So I request people quote their favorites!
Make it a post or just say it in the comments! Double points for sharing the fic title.
I’ll start.
Toshinori nodded. “The Room of Enlightenment.” Tsukauchi shuddered. “That’s not what I would have called it. I would have called it the room of I-think-that’s-probably-a-war-crime.”

Writing Tips
Punctuating Dialogue
✧
➸ “This is a sentence.”
➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.
➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”
➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”
➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”
➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”
➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.
“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.
“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”
➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”
➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”
However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!
➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.
If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)
➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“
“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.
➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.
➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”
➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.
“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”
➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.
“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”
So true beastie X3
Have another O.O.C moment. I’l try sharing one every so often :)
This one’s early into the fic.
Not from the first however.
A few days ago my partner proposed the idea of Ginger and Jimmy Pesto's ex wife (Jimmy Jr, Andy, and Ollie's mom), being the same person.
And listen, I have been FIXATED ever since.
Have we ever seen Jimmy in the restaurant at the same time as Linda being on the phone to Ginger?
What if that's why Jimmy's such a dick to Bob, because Linda's still in Ginger's life but he isn't?
Ginger's hair and shirt colours are almost identical to Jimmy Junior and Andy, respectively.
Ginger has a partner and Jimmy Jr's museoem says "my mom's new friend Allen, is okay!"
Andy and Ollie's personalities overlap with Linda's so much, that comes from somewhere!
Linda's mystery red-headed friend in the Dreamatorium episode has an almost identical face to Andy and Ollie too! And as J-Ju looks exactly like his dad, it stands to reason that the twins would look like their mom.
Let me know what YOU think!
Reblogs greatly appreciated!
True.
Support all creations, big or small.

Fandom: God there’s like NO content anymore. I wish we could get more art and fanfics :(((
Someone: Hey, I can’t draw anything digitally, because I can’t afford a tablet, but here’s a pen on paper drawing that I spent a lot of time and hard work on. Also, I took a shot at my first fanfic and I’d really like some feedback or at least some kudos if you enjoyed it :)
Fandom: Oh... yeah sorry no... not you. We actually meant writers that are already well known and popular to produce MORE content... I mean, if a popular blog shares your work then maybe. And we don’t really like pen to paper art. We just don’t think it’s professional or even looks good :/
