A Writing Competition I Was Going To Participate In Again This Year Has Announced That They Now Allow

i aint walking under that thing..

no you have to contribute to your fandom if you don't want it to die. most fandoms die because people say 'it's so sad watching the fandom die when the hype dies' without doing anything about it. I'm not saying you have to push out 100k word slow-burn fic, I'm not saying you have to make fan art or gif sets or edits or anything. I'm just saying we as a community should contribute to our fandom if we don't want it to die, and by contributing, I'm talking about giving kudos, commenting on your favorite fics, reblogging your favorite art and just talking about your favorite characters. that's enough to keep a fandom alive. that's the most effective way to keep a fandom alive in my humble opinion.

fandoms die because people stop talking about it, fandoms die because people stop engaging with fan content once the hype is gone. what I'm saying is, mainstream media's hype may be gone, but our fandom can stay alive and thriving if us as a community don't let it die.

doing this cuz why not, also im coming to the realisation that my fandom might actually be kind of dead-

Reblog if you’d love for people to ask you about your current WIPs

lions are very mean and like jellyfish

heyhey, for those who don't know, i plan on being an author. the only problem is.. i never got my vision.

yk.. j.k.rowling got hers when she was on a train (a boy in a cupboard i think) and soman chainini got his when he was visiting london (he saw two castles, one for witches and one for princesses, and a witch falling into the good castle and a princess falling into the witch castle)

untill now ofc. I GOT MY VISION. after a year of waiting, i finally know what my story is going to be about.

this is what i imagined:

Sword and dagger gleamed in the air.

The two danced, stabbing and slashing at each other in the moonlight.

One male. One female.

The man wore a black suit, his face hidden in the shadows.

The woman's hair had come loose, and it flowed freely alongside her haunting gown.

Only the sounds of their weapons could be heard, slicing through the soft wind.

Not a single word was spoken as they glided through the night, each in sync as they lunged at one another.

i plan on making on making this a fantasy book that takes place at a school (the male is the school master, the woman is the evil queen that is corrupting the world) and a girl sneaks out with her friends to stop this queen.

the only catch.. evil wins in this book.

#justiceforladylessoandalltheotherhotfemalevillainbossesoutthere edit: is anyone even gonna like this book-

I love how these are from an Unreality subreddit but to my eye they just read like regular Tumblr shitposts. Did we cross-pollinate or something

me, not rlly caring about religion: MUM WHY CANT WE STAY AT HOME

Me, Catholic, walking into a Protestant church with no depictions of Mary: where’s my mom

this is too true

me, struggling to write: hmm, this part is a little difficult. maybe i should check my planning document, which i created as a helpful tool for my writing process!

the planning document:

if I could meet one character, I think a would pick Lady Lesso from the school for good and evil (movie & book) because well.. its Lesso. Not only can she mentor me to be better at evil and whatever, I can also learn about what she likes, her passions, arics father, dovesso, etc. and just like- spying on her. studying her breathing. her movements. all that stuff.

not the animated table back there 😭

I do love the phrase executive dysfunction bc the image it conjures is of a bunch of people wearing business suits around a long oval conference table  arguing with each other to the point where they’re getting into physical fights, but in the background there’s just a big empty whiteboard with a To Do list with one item on it and that item is “take shower”
