#rip me
there is NOTHING like the rage of searching for a post you KNOW is on your blog with a highly specific phrase and then not only can this website not find it but tumblr says something fucking stupid like ‘please don’t be mad. please’
Real mood rn
The Lore-ist
- has detailed if not meticulous notes on the universe they’ve created, down to the food eaten and language quirks, they use mythos and setting to bring it all together
- most of the character’s backstories are already loving laid out, though may not be all connected yet.
- Has yet to write a full chapter. (But they’re getting there!)
The Bae
- Story is centered around a complex and engaging OC that they’ve spent years developing
- said OC has been through A Lot, the love is real, so is the pain
- OC may sort of be a loser? ie the story is a character-driven piece where the plot is moved ahead by said character’s bad decisions and questionable habits
The Researcher
- akin to the lore-ist but spends more of their time on wikipedia articles jotting down notes and things like how much a watermelon weighs
- Everything from knowing Too Much about child-care to how a body decomposes or flapper chest-binding is on the table, their breadth is large and Should Be Feared
- takes a long time to start but make the most of their words, from spot-on sci-fi to history to murder, readers will learn something on the way
The Lemon Flavored Factory
- alright take it back now y’all, this writer has written enough smut to make a tom cat blush, they can write other things too, and often well, but there will inevitably be bed-rattling at some point (or car or shower)
- either unusually creative or just sticks to classics like Aliens Made Them Do It, neither is necessarily bad but there is oddly little in between
- their author’s notes tend to be hilarious or at least very self-aware
The Word Vomit Canoe
- action oriented writer who spews out the words before they know what is happening, no plans, no outlines, 10k of the first thing that comes to mind, sometimes things like ‘maybe dragons?’ & they go with it
- their strengths are productivity, weaknesses are not knowing what the hell is going on
- style is marked by fast-paced tone and downright impressive word count
The Muse
- their inspiration doesn’t come as often, but they are always listening for her & redy 2 go
- update schedule is…sporadic at best, but makes up for it with long chapters and clean editing
- Will write 30 pages in a day and then take a few months off, enjoys one-shots but can do longer works
- doesn’t have the best sense of time and when they are in The Zone may forget to eat or shower
I 100% need all of my writing followers/mutuals to reblog this with what kind of writer they are.
I’m definitely The Lore-ist and lil Researcher/Muse.
I think I’m a mash of the word vomit canoe and the muse.
@writingonesdreams I am some kind of horrifying mash up of the bae, the researcher and the muse.
wow the boys aged nicely
My paranoia and insecurities hold me close
BABY I’M A BEAMER BOY I NEED A BEAMER BOY
PS, Fuck you cunt
Everyone hates me
finals r finally coming!!im so dead!!
A friend asked for me to post this eerie old art and here we are
Me, staring at the 300 different plot ideas materializing from the ether as my brain digests this new fandom into which I was yanked, as a black hole yanks in light: it’s too late now but clicking that first episode probably constituted as a bad idea.
Okay, I plan to update tonight but whether I’m successful or not is entirely down to whether or not I clear the mess of a room that I created when I decided to go through my clothes over the weekend and consequently left all over my room ♀️
Scrap that. It’s almost 8pm here and I’ve literally only just sat down to start sorting my room so there is no way I’ll be able to get an update out tonight. Sorry!
