You are an immortal, having to deal with the rather troublesome rumour that your blood grants immortal life. However, what those after your blood don't know is that since you can't die, you are an excellent host to several deadly bacteria and viruses-all existing peacefully in your blood.

Can you give tips for slow burn/developing romance? I’m good at writing couples once they’re already in love, but when they have a crush on each other or them slowly developing feelings I don’t really know how to do
How to Write a Slow Burn Romance
-> writersdigest.com
-> reddit.com
The Growing Relationship
Make sure the reasons your characters don't get together right away makes sense. It doesn't need to be realistic, but it needs to be believable.
Focus on how their relationship grows. Spend time on the meeting, the getting to know each other, the subtle moments and big moments that draw them to each other. There will be obstacles, arguments, and conflicts to solve.
Make the development of the relationship natural for the characters.
Start as far back in their relationship as you can. This will allow the longest amount of time for their relationship to be exploired in the story. If it fits, you can start when they first meet. Of course, if it doesn't fit your story, you can start later in their relationship.
Build the Tension
You want your readers to be on the edge of their seats when it comes to your character's relationship. They should be screaming "just kiss already!"
Add near-miss moments. An almost kiss interrupted by a phone call. A hug that lasts just a moment too long.
Add little indications of feelings. Soft Smiles. Winking. The brush of a finger. Lingering glances.
Pining. Give insights into your character's thoughts. Constant thoughts about the other person. Butterflies when they think about them. The anticipation.
Slow Burn, Not Slow Pace
There needs to be other plot points happening while the romantic tension is building. Your characters should be dealing with other situations while they are also pining after each other.
Outside Forces
Slowburns are not always endless pining and dancing around one another. Sometimes, there are outside forces that are keeping characters apart when they already realize that the feelings are mutual.
Examples: Distance between the characters, health/mental health reasons, job/work complications, family dynamics, character goals, characters are on two different sides of a conflict, etc.

Lately on my dash, I have been seeing lots of wonderful mutuals get too hard on their beautiful minds.
Lovelies, your stories and art are beautiful because they are from you, and FOR you. Stats do not determine the quality of a product. Again, some of the BEST stories on the archive I have ever read were around 100 hits, and 0-10 kudos. Some of the BEST ART I’ve seen has 0 notes.
You know how I can tell? Because the authors and artists poured their heart and soul into their craft. As long as it can inspire ONE person, you should be proud. You just radically changed the life and perspective of ONE person. That’s amazing.
Sure, you might think your art or story is “cringe” or “bad”…OR, it can be someone’s comfort piece that they go back to after a long day. You may see your stats and think, “man, nobody enjoys this,” not knowing that maybe, juuuust maybe, you have that ONE person who you’ve inspired, who loves your work, and lurks your socials awaiting for your next project. Your art, your music, YOUR story has the potential to do that, but you have to love what YOU do.
And yes, your love WILL show. Maybe not with stats, or kudos, or notes, or comments. But you may be someone’s favorite without even knowing. As long as your art is out there, it WILL reach somebody. I will try to be that somebody for a lot of you, but there is indeed A LOT of you.
In a world where media is being “consumed” for “content,” remember that ART comes from the heART (sorry not sorry for being cheesy). Artists, Writers, Poets, Musicians, Sculptors, HUMANS: Get your hearts out there for the world to see. The world needs more motivated minds. 💫

AO3 is wild because it’s the only place where you’ll see an author’s note that reads, “sorry, guys 🥺 English isn’t my first language” and the fic they wrote is a 100k-word-long of the most professionally written slow burn enemies-to-lovers with intense angst, heartbreaking tragedy, heartwarming humor, incredibly drama, shocking plot twists and the most beautiful dynamics with depth and complexity between the characters that made you laugh, cry, blush, kick your feet, hold your breath, dig your nails into the pillow, cry some more and smile to yourself like an idiot, and you’ll think about how insane it is that the author wrote the whole thing in their free time. for free. out of pure love and passion they have for these characters. and how it’s not only better than canon — how the author doesn’t just understand the characters better than what they’re given in the piece of media they’re originally from — but also better than some of the best selling novels you’ve read. just wild.

every time a stranger comes to my inbox and screams at me “HOW CAN YOU LIKE THIS CHARACTER?😡” followed by list of reasons why it’s wrong for me to like said fictional character, god just makes me love that character even more.
and it inspires me to write more fics about said character too 🥰 thanks for the motivation bestie! I love when a stranger thinks they can hide behind anon and tell me what I can and can’t enjoy. more fics about said character is coming your way! 😮‍💨🥂🤭✨✨

Putting together a class for beginning writers. Are you more of a pantser or a plotter? Here are some highlights I put together after asking more experienced writers what the process is like for them. I’m definitely more of a plotter. I’m hoping my beginners can use this to help identify which direction they lean. 😊

Aight I just remembered what I was gonna ask. I think It'll be my second ask because I do remember I submitted the same question I wanna ask months ago HAHA
Okay so, I'm writing a story that explores a lot of subjects, one of them is morality
So... How do you make a fictional religion feel "real" in a sense? Like I know there'll be shrines, temples, and stuff but I need to know more than just that.
Take your time and thank you! ✨
Writing Realistic Fictional Religion
Hi! Thank you for the question :)
Please refer to my posts about writing hateful gods and writing deities for stuff about writing gods! I'll talk more about writing religion in general here.
Religious Hierarchy
Think about how you'd want your religion to be structured:
Polytheism: the belief in many gods.
Monotheism: the belief in a single, all-powerful god.
Atheism: the belief in no gods. A belief in nothing is stil a belief.
Are there tiers of gods? (Gods above Gods)?
Is there a "Mother God" or "Father God" that must be worshipped over everything else?
How are religious leaders selected and trained?
What kind of actions (celibacy, vegetarianism) do the believers need to do in order to be a faithful person? Is there a consequence when they don't do this?
Religious Texts
The most important question a religious text should aim to answer is: where did the world (and therefore, us) come from?
Here are some story patterns you can use:
Creatio Ex Nihilo: God creates the world from nothing
Creation from Chaos: God introduced order into a chaotic world
Primal Couple: The first "couple" gives birth to the world
World Parent: A god sacrifices (a part) of their body to construct the world's elements.
Emergence: Before the current world, there existed another world. After a period of time is over, a new world emerges.
Earth-Diver: A deity sends over a person/animal, etc. to construct a world out of the barren land they've created.
This "Origin Story" will dicate the basic values that your religion thinks is the most important.
Religious Practices
You have the freedom to invent your own religious practices. When you are trying to invent one, consider:
The weather. Is the Sun in your world so blazing that all religious festivals are only held during the night?
What can you not do in the name of religion? Are you not allowed to have stuffed animals in your bed? Not eat blue stuff?
Who are the people that work the most during festivals/worship ceremonies? Are slaves exploited to prepare the feast? Are the women the only ones that works while the men sing? Are animals tortured or exploited in the process?
Sacrifices. What/when/how do you offer sacrifices?
You can also think about:
Who determines the kind of religious practices the other people have to follow?
Are the reliigous practice discriminatory and if yes, who do they benefit?
Religious Locations
Historically, religious lands have had the power to have its own rules and be protected. which will provide a good
One Location vs. Many: Is there a shrine in every home/street, or is everyone required to report to the city square every Saturday?
The Ruler's Castle: Sometimes, the king is considered to be the "son of god" and the palace is therefore the most sacred place.
One Unreachable Location: It can also be that in order to be ruly faithful, you need to visit a place that is so unreachable that people die trying.
A Moving Location: Does the god choose their new home every year?
A Constructable Location: If you draw a circle in bone ash, does the patch of land inside it become holy and no ghost can enter it? What if you lack faith and the circle construction doesn't work at a time you need it the most?
Question of Morality and Religion
While many religions preach equality and kindnes, it has been used to justify conflict and discriminate those who do not believe in it.
Does the deity promote such violence? Or is it the bad leaders?
Is the deity uncritical towards such behavior? Or do they actively step in?
Is the God falliable? Like the modern-day presidents, is the god's survival/power somehow dependent on the believers? Is that why they stay silent even when bad things are being done in their name?
Does the god favor rich people?

The villain towered over the hero's head with a laugh. "I didn't realize how short you were! Wow."
"Shut up." the hero huffed.
"What? I think it's cute."
