what people think writing is: worldbuilding, churning out entire chapters in one sitting, metaphors, character building, finishing novels, flawless plotlines

what writing actually is: random 1 am thoughts, zoning out into fictional worlds, associating songs with characters, writer’s block for six weeks at a time, coming up with plot twists at the most inconvenient times

A beautifully done interpretation of the Slytherin dorms.

The pool of water/ceiling light is based on the idea of an aristocratic Roman impluvium/compluvium. Gryffindor has a furnace in the center of the dorm rooms, so it seemed like an nice yin-yang effect as Gryffindor=fire and Slytherin=water. I’m not sure if the compluvium would magically let rainwater (and snow, and hail!?) in from the lake above, or not. I think it should.

Writing hurt/comfort: this is the most cringeworthy thing to ever be put into words and I’ll need at least a 3 hour break to ponder how much my family, friends and future employers will make fun of me when they inevitably find it

Reading hurt/comfort: hee hee tough man cry hee hee hoo hee hoo

it’s a problem

I love doing greyscale shading practices

Weekly Roundup 19/8/18

Every Drarry fic I’ve read and enjoyed this week…..

For The Price of a Cup of Tea by GoldenTruth813 (Explicit, 20 K)

Summary: When Draco Malfoy returns to England, he doesn’t know what he is looking for. Meanwhile, Harry’s spent the last few years trying to make the magical world a better place, but he’s unable to escape the nagging feeling something will always be missing. Years later, when they reconnect and find in each other an equal match, the missing pieces of their lives begin to fall into place.

Every Me and Every You by bixgirl1 (Explicit, 69 K)

This fic is amazing but it also gets bonus points for being named after a Placebo song because they are my favourite band ever. Summary: Harry liked his life just fine, thankyouverymuch — so it was bad enough when a sly fairy cursed him to leap into alternate realities. But seeing Malfoy in all of them? Definitely way too much. And worse yet: needing the bastard’s help to figure out how to get out of of it.It was a disaster waiting to happen, really.Well… probably.

What are you talking about i don't even like this webtoon that much what haha what wh

but they did go to specsavers

When customers walked into Edeka supermarket in Hamburg recently, they were surprised to find that the shelves were almost empty, and the small handful of products that remained were all made in Germany. It seemed like the supermarket had simply forgotten to restock their produce until customers saw the mysterious signs left around the shop. “So empty is a shelf without foreigners,” read one sign at the cheese counter. “This shelf is quite boring without variety,” read another.

It turns out that Edeka, in a rather controversial move, had opted to solely sell German food for a day in order to make a powerful statement about racism and ethnic diversity. As a result, there were no Greek olives, no Spanish tomatoes, and very little of anything else that can normally be found in a typical modern household. “Edeka stands for diversity, and we produce a wide range of food in our assortment, which is produced in the different regions of Germany,” said an Edeka spokesman. “But it is together with products from other countries that we create the unique diversity that our customers value.” (Source)
