Me, Writing A Couple Chapters So I Can Be On Top Of My Updating Schedule: This Is Good

writing for Star Wars is just constantly trying to convince your autocorrect that, no, really, transperisteel is totally a word. trust me on this buddy

crazy how fanfic authors drop the most beautiful and gorgeous pieces of work ever, leaving you speechless and sobbing at three in the morning as you quietly contemplate the masterpiece you just read

and they don’t get paid for it they just do it because they’re having fun and they want to share their joy with you

like I would literally die for all of you fanfic authors out there reblog to swear your allegiance to fanfic authors

May I offer you a tiny Ahsoka in these trying times

i never mind questions from random online strangers

REBLOG IF YOU ARE HELLA BORED AND WOULDN’T MIND SOME CURIOUS ANONS.

apparently, having the wip document open on my computer while making tumblr posts about writing does not make words appear on the screen. interesting.

Things I, as a fantasy writer, want to see more of in fantasy stories:

- Natural disasters other than A Big Storm (seriously man, why do we almost never see tsunamis, tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, and forest fires in fantasy? Maybe you'll get an avalanche in a cold setting but there's way more natural disasters to play with than just storms.)

- Radiation (think about it, uranium as a spell component and lead as an armor against the Dark Power That Unravels Your Body Over Time, mages who specialize in radioactive magic being mutilated and sickened by their own craft)

- Picky eaters (in a genre often defined by the food, what happens if you aren't much of an eater? You might see a picky eater as a Particularly Spoiled Royal Who Only Eats The Finest Wine And Cheese, but what do you do if you're a peasant who can barely afford a few potatoes, but your kids don't like potatoes and won't eat them? What if you're an adventurer and you're all out of pre-packed rations and the only thing you have to eat is giant bug meat, but that's too revolting to consider?)

- Animal companions that are farm animals (especially when most fantasy is based on agrarian Medieval Europe, it makes way more sense for the Peasant Child Turned Chosen Hero to have a pig or chicken or hound as a companion than a falcon or wolf or lion)

- Disabilities that can't be healed by magic, but can be adapted by it (maybe a wizard can't restore your failing vision, but they can give you enchanted glasses that never get dirty and let you see in the dark. Or maybe your traumatic memories can't be erased with a spell, but an alchemist can make you a potion that prevents nightmares. A mage can't regrow your arm, but they can transfigure your suit of armor into a new one.)

- "Feminine" jobs/crafts that are important to the plot (such as weaving/embroidery being used to create spells, a dressmaker who has to create all the disguises for a group of adventurers sneaking into an enemy castle, a florist/herbalist making powerful potions with the flowers they grow, The Power Of A Mother's Love, and such)

Bird Patton because why not?

I need a funny crack fic where it’s just a collection of times that clones where picked up by bounty hunters thinking it was boba fett. Or imagine for a moment that Din gets thrown back in time. Just him every time he sees a clone

“Fett?”

*confused clone noises*

“okay not fett.” Points to next clone “Fett?” And cycle

I found trough a friend that some people in a community for my fandom were talking about my fic and praising it

It felt nice, but at the same time I kept thinking, why don't they leave a comment? I have not been getting any comments recently and if I hadn't accidentally found those posts I wouldn't know that people are actually enjoying it.

Pls if you really like a fic, let an author know!

Let your authors know! 💕
