I've been so busy between vacation, coming back from vacation, recovering from vacation, then also simultaneously getting ready tocmove (and moving) I'm so tired and demotivated. I feel like I haven't written or done anything creative in so long

This isn’t commonly known but one of the rings of hell is actually being in a fandom wherein the popular bloggers have the worst opinions known to man that everyone else parrots

#not literally the worst but my most detested megop dynamic i'm like 90% sure came from one particular writer #that became really popular and got lots of ppl into megop who then copied that same dynamic

i don’t know how to tell people that deriving pleasure - sexual pleasure included! - from art* is good actually, and that creating specific kind of art “just” because you find it hot or whatever is just as good a reason as any, and you don’t actually need some “deep and meaningful” reason to create art about things. pleasure - sexual pleasure included - is not the devil, it is not Bad and shameful, and it’s not any less valid of a reason to create something than because you want to, idk, explore the depths of the human consciousness or something

* art here includes writing

#not only is it okay to make art just for horny reasons #horny is in fact part of the depth of human consciousness #like it's so dumb when ppl write off porn/erotica/etc as just for getting off #like dude eroticism and sexuality can come in so many flavors and emotions

I’m also interested hearing what exactly the ship is that you based your answer on, if you’d like to share!

(This was meant to be fandom specific but doesn’t have to be. Be free!)

#something very common; megop lol #even if idw megop is less popular. megop is still one of the top 5 lol

I LOVE it when characters are awful actually! I LOVE it when characters cause conflict! I LOVE it when characters are horrible to everyone INCLUDING THEMSELVES!!! I LOVE it when a character turns themself into a bomb, slowly ticking down before taking everything with them! I LOVE it when characters hurt people and then when confronted by this DOUBLE DOWN ON THEIR BEHAVIOR!!!!

Hey, writeblr? 

I know a lot of us love and relate to the, “omg, I’m a gremlin who never writes and only produces weird trash” memes. But remember that you’re allowed to like your writing. 

You’re allowed to love your writing. You’re allowed to be unabashedly excited to work, and share, and come up with new ideas. You’re allowed to be proud of your work and your craft.

It doesn’t always have to be memes about how much writing sucks and, “ugh, why do I even do this?”

You’re allowed to be proud of yourself.

“May I please draw your OC?”

Reblog this message if you encourage anyone that wants to draw your OC to do so.  No need to ask for permission in advance.

Go for it.  Draw my OC.  If you want, I’ll even give you reference posts.  Go to town on it.

You are welcome to draw my OC and surprise me with the result.  Seriously.  In fact, I encourage it.  I will proudly display whatever it is you submit to me regarding my OC.  There is a chance that I will squeal about it for several days.

Even if you feel you aren’t good at whatever artistic adventure it is you do, please feel free to submit it to me.  I want to see what you have done.

#only have like 3 tf ocs only one of which ive posted drawings of ksjdjsnd

I know I'm in the minority here but I only have so much sympathy for complaints about "fanonization." It's totally fine if you hate to read OOC fic, but at a certain point I'm like, look, these characters are just concepts, man, they're just our neurons firing. Fanonization just feels like a nonissue to me. So someone wants to write Leon Kennedy as a uke femboy bottom getting railed by big daddy Chris Redfield cause it gets their rocks off. There's bigger issues out there. "Why not just write an OC if you're gonna write the character totally OOC" cause named canon character gets more clicks than OC! And there's an audience for uke femboy bottom Leon Kennedy getting railed by big daddy Chris Redfield. No one's committing a sin by grabbing someone else's character and going "mine now." That's the point of fandom. Even if they make the dolls kiss in a way that annoys you, we're ALL making the dolls kiss.

#so like ppl understand that you should tag your fics right #bc it lets users filter for what they do/don't want to see #well when you tag a fic with a franchise/character #that means the reader expects to read content about that thing #which is kinda why when a fic is OOC it's really really annoying #sure ppl are entitled to write what they want but like #when ppl come onto a fic about a certain thing and the fic writes The Thing badly #of course ppl will complain about it #discourse
