hi, barbie!
i firmly believe that the best piece of writing advice i could ever give someone is “you can’t have everything you want in your story.” if you implement ALL your ideas into one story, you risk losing good writing. because a lot of the time, the “lore” or whatever doesn’t match up with each idea, or it becomes too clustered. a good example of this is everything vivziepop writes. she tries to get all her cool ideas into one story, and so it comes off feeling like a bad fanfiction of a better story (pacing issues, continuity errors, too many characters, etc). this isn’t me hating on viv, it’s me trying to get you to learn from her mistakes. i believe her stories have genuinely decent qualities that get overshadowed by the bad stuff.
tldr; you need to sacrifice some of your ideas in order to make a story good (but you can always reuse them in other stories!).
(they’re censored cause i posted them to tiktok earlier)

could i get a link to the stobotnik discord server perchance..?👉🏻👈🏻 i need to add fuel to the fire (the fire being me hyperfixating on gay people ONCE AGAIN)
one time i wrote a short story with my ocs. one of the lines was “the point is, you care about the guy. no homo. but also maybe totally yes homo. schrödingers sexuality. does the cat fuck dudes? who knows, but if he did, you’d support him 100%. and in this case, the cat is charlie. the cat that you’re maybe totally super in love with. maybe you should stop comparing him to cats if you’re going to say that.” i don’t know which davekat fanfic author i channeled while writing it but i’m not complaining
