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.”

The biggest warmongering race of Aliens declare war on the local Galaxy cluster. The opposing group of peace-loving Aliens, who had befriended most Alien races, are finally forced to reveal their secret weapon, a ‘classified’ species called Humans, and their tenacity as persistence predators.

Science fiction is full of first contact stories, but is there a such thing as LAST contact?  Decide exactly what that means, and write about it.

Prompt 41

Hear me out, DP and DC crossover where Scarecrow is cousins with the Fentons. 

 His mother was siblings with Jack’s father, and both Jazz and Danny met ‘Uncle Jonathan’ during one of the many Fenton-Nightingale family reunions that happens every few years. Honestly, perhaps it’s what gets Jazz interested in psychology, hearing from her ‘uncle’ about fear and its effects.

 And honestly once they start having to deal with ghosts and having had to deal with their parents for years it’s not really hard to talk with their uncle. Crane still doesn’t know how he became these kids’ favorite uncle, or even all of the family kids’ favorite uncle-cousin, but that’s just how the family is. 

 Really he’s not even the only villain of the family, with both Jack and Maddie being close but not quite, even if they’re definitely mad scientists. Their son becoming a local hero, even if they’re not aware of that fact, is just ironic. 

 John knows. The two kids told him when they found out that Danny may or may not need to feed on fear now that he’s half ghost, and well he’s the specialist about the emotion so…

 At least they have someone to stay with when Jazz goes to Gotham university and brings Danny with her, even if the local vigilantes are concerned as to why Scarecrow attacks have suddenly took a nosedive…

I feel confident enough to post these now. A collection of all the existing posters after some edits from the other post that got 13k notes! These are full size/quality. Go nuts.

You may use them for wallpapers, tabletop campaigns, whatever. Consider tipping me (do people use kofi for that or tumblr's built in system? Let me know what you prefer) or buying a print or sticker here! If you do use them, let me know what for, or send pictures!

Very brave of me to make a set of illustrations that's 90% hands

Anyway. This is about my personal theories/headcanons about the vision requirements

EDIT: I made a post elaborating on my theories/headcanons! Check it out if you wanna know a bit more :D

EDIT (again): Just so you know (bc ppl keep mentioning it in the tags), I am well aware Archons don't personally give out visions😅 The Archons' hands are supposed to be more symbolic, since it IS heavily implied they have a subconcious affect on who gets one, even if they don't actually have any active say in it

sorry dude

reasons.

If it sounds like the composer is trying to blast you with the orchestra until you're as deaf as he is, it's Beethoven.

If it sounds like the composer might be a vampire, it's Bach.

If it sounds like the composer is trying to set the violins on fire, it's Vivaldi.

how it feels finding a cool base location in minecraft

My favourite thing about Link is that you play as him and he's the most important guy ever so there's so many different ideas of what his personality is like because you can just make him do whatever the fuck you want. He's a lover boy, a soldier, a chef, a photographer, a pyromaniac, a dirty little unemployed child, a femboy, a tough as guts macho man, autistic, anxious, outgoing, outrageously confident, reckless, idiotic, strategic genius and that's all because he's everyone who's ever played tloz because Link is whoever you decide to be when you play him Everyone is some variation of Link and I love it

i feel like this is the kind of poster that will be up all over the waverider. while there's no name, everyone knows who this is for.

Raine is not the type to let a kid bleed out and die, too bad Hunter is generally too anxious and paranoid to let anyone touch him (nervermind letting them help him.)

SWW’s Elements Masterpost:

Primary Elements:

-The Touchables- 

The Elements that I consider make up the Primary Elements are Earth Wind Fire and Water. Typical right? Books taught these as the basics and it clicked with me that these were elements that i could interact with while I casted my magic. Fire from the candles, dirt from the garden, Water from the ocean, smoke from my favorite incense. This is why I consider them to be the Touchable Elements

Secondary Elements:

-The Untouchables-

Secondary Elements are things that still interact with us but in a less tangible way. Time, Space, Light and Dark make up my second tier of elements. But Storm how can you even classify those as elements? It’s just Light and Dark, and i’m pretty sure Time/space is science NOT magic. But they are still there and they interact with us on the daily. Light for day, Light to help the plants grow, Darkness for rest, Darkness for solitude, Time for each moment you cherish, Time for every bitter-sweet memory, Space for where you vacation to, space for the cosmos and galaxies. They still don’t necessarily physically touch us, but they still interact with our lives and act as a bridge between The last group. Personally i think that the secondary elements are a mesh between both Primary and Tertiary elements.

Tertiary Elements:

-The Effectors- 

The easiest way to define these four elements is by the definition of Effect: a change that is a result or consequence of an action or other cause. The Elements i consider to be effectors are Luck, Fate, Order and Chaos.  “A Stroke of Luck” “A Twist of Fate”  “Put in Order” “Chaos and confusion” These elements are the ones that help shape and define our overall lives. Ever carry around a lucky pencil to try and boost your chances on that test you didn’t study for? That would fall under the Luck element. Do you ever just find that thing that just CLICKS with you and you feel extremely drawn to it? That would fall under Fate as it is subconsciously calling out to you. Chaos is spontaneous, Chaos is being able to make a spell from random things you find in your junk drawer. It doesn’t make sense why a post it note and a DD battery would make for a good charging station for your crystals but it’s what you’ve got and you make it work. Order is methodical, Order is waiting until 3 am on the night of the full moon to begin your Year and a Day in Witchcraft. Order is doing things the way they have always been done. So the effectors all play a part in shaping our lives both magically and mundane.

first day as a second century warlord i have my men tie branches to their horses’ tails to stir up dust and make it look like there’s a lot of us but i forget it just rained so there isn’t any dust and the enemy can clearly see there’s like twenty of us all spread out in a line

Also hey btw

The term “masterpiece” originally and traditionally meant a piece of work that an apprentice or other aspiring craftsman created to show off to his master or the town’s guild. So naturally, it was intended to be the best fucking thing that you could make, demonstrating just how fucking good you are at what you’re making - 100% to flex your skills. And if it was approved, the applicant was accepted as a member of the guild and could now call himself a master, and work in this craft in this city.

So the next time you’re looking at The One Great Thing you made and think “this is it, my masterpiece, I have peaked, it’s all downhill from here”, consider looking it the other way: Making your masterpiece means you’re only getting started.

Someone reminded me in THTS's comments that I had yet to produce a map regarding the territories of each race in Hyrule, so- here we are!

I do genuinely believe that the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (and arguably the Zelda franchise as a whole, though i myself have played literally none of these games) is closer to fitting the description of ‘Tolkien-esque Fantasy’ than most other movies/shows/games/books etc that claim that label

Like, compare this post by tumblr user wufflesvetinari, which makes an important point about Tolkien’s worldbuilding, and also lives in my head rent free:

and then these quotes from Jacob Geller’s “Every Zelda is the Darkest Zelda”

and his conclusions about the messages in Zelda games are thematically very similar to the through-lines about friendship and love in LOTR, and what a lot of authors miss about what makes a fantasy story personal and memorable:

“A world without joy and humor isn’t a compelling world to fight for” is exactly why there are so many pieces of fantasy media out there that just feel like carbon copies of each other (i’ve seen many posts that explain this better than I can though I can’t find any specific ones at the moment, just know that I didn’t invent this thesis). You’ve got the cool swords, you’ve got the wizards and the spells and the battles, but first and foremost you need the LOVE.
