Vibrant Colors Crystal Sale - June 7th 2024 Rules & Procedures
Hello friends! Everyone planning to participate in the sale today, please read. This is how everything will work. For tonightโs sale, Iโve curated a collection of crystals with a vibrant, rainbow theme in mind! ๐
I will start posting items for sale directly here on Tumblr. To claim an item and place your order, do the following:
Reply to the post (those who are unable to reply for whatever reason can reblog) saying โsoldโ or โmine" with the quantity youโd like to claim. Itโs important you do this so we can see who claimed something first in case something sells out.
Keep a list of everything you claim (with the item number for each item). Once youโre done claiming, please message me over the instant messenger.
Include the following information in your message:
Your email address for the invoice, the country you live in (for shipping purposes - we are shipping from Austria), and the list of what you claimed (with the item numbers). Also please let me know if you want your order to be *open box* or *ready to ship*. โOpen boxโ simply means you want us to hang onto your items after you pay so that you can continue to add things from future sales so everything can be shipped together for convenience ๐
Shipping to Europe is $12
Shipping elsewhere is $15
For extra-large packages, shipping is $20
Be sure to send your info at the end of the sale or whenever youโre sure youโre done claiming.
Invoices will be sent tomorrow (Saturday), but in most cases take 2 days to finish sending. Invoicing will be done through my online shop โBekkathystโ - the invoice gets sent to your email and you get the option to pay with a PayPal account or with a credit or debit card. You donโt need to have a PayPal account to pay.
Payment is due by the end of Monday (June 10th). Please pay as soon as possible.
Unfortunately due to problems we have encountered before - if you claim items and then at the end of the sale and either donโt respond to your invoice or never message, you will be blocked.
If you decide youโre backing out of a claim before the sale is over, message me so that I can delete your comment. Please try to avoid doing this. Thank you!
We now offer an โopen boxโ option in which you can continue to keep your order open (aka have us not ship it yet) for future sales so everything can be shipped together once youโre ready. When you send your info please donโt forget to let me know if youโd like your order to be *open box* or *ready to ship*. Thank you!! ๐
For all items that are marked random selection, you may make a request for a specific piece and we will do our best to honor your request, but it is not always possible. Please keep that in mind :)
Any questions? Feel free to ask! I hope youโll join us and have lots of fun!

Rules
Hey everyone,
I thought it would be a good idea to establish some ground rules to guide interactions on here so without further ado:
1) I get to change and or ignore my own rules as and when I like. It's my blog so tough.
2) I won't even consider answering an ask unless it meets the following criteria:
a) I haven't been asked it before on Tumblr.
b) It is worded as a question.
c) It does not ask me to rule on canon for content I make.
d) It does not ask for takes on real people.
e) It has a positive tone (seeking to become positive counts)
f) It is not a callout (e.g. why are you so rubbish etc.)
g) It is not asking for confidential information on business and/or Intellectual property
h) It is not just rephrasing a previous question because people didn't like the answer.
i) It's respectful.
j) It is not just a veiled story request (e.g. why don't you make these characters kiss etc.)
3) This is not a press conference or an interrogation. If you want to ask serious questions about Rusty Quill and other proper topics send them to
[email protected]
4) If you DM me I will ignore it on principal. Not because I don't like you but because I am receiving so many that I can't be fair with it and it's just generally unwise anyway.
5) Remember we are all human. That means we can make mistakes, change our minds, be flippant, have a bad day and give bad advice. Please show a little grace rather than trying to catch people out. I do not support dogpiling in any situation.
6) Be kind. The fastest way to get yourself blocked by me is being unkind even if you are in the right. Some of the cruellest and regrettable actions I have ever seen have been fuelled by righteous indignation.
7) Be wise. Internet culture moves fast. Not everyone knows everything you know and not everyone needs to know everything you know. You aren't helping me if you appoint yourself "chief brainbox educator supreme" and try to school people on how things should be. Let's just all keep it chill yeah?
8) Be patient. This is not my job. This is barely even counts as a good idea! I run my social media when I can but I don't have deadlines and I don't have sociability quotas. I might do a flurry of activity when I have time then go quiet for months. Just go ahead and assume if I am not posting it's for a good reason.
This is hardly a complete or exhaustive list and no doubt I have made some tragic tumblr newb error but it'll have to do for now. I am happy to take constructive feedback on these but don't expect quick turnaround on anything.

I WRITE STRICTLY FOR BLACK READERS AND MOSTLY PLUS SIZE BLACK WOMEN! THIS IS NOT INTERCHANGEABLE OR UP FOR DEBATE! RESPECT THIS OR KICK ROCKS! IF YOU ARE NB, YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO ENGAGE WITH MY WORKS BUT PLEASE BE MINDFUL OF THIS.
I normally only do AUโs unless requested or commissioned otherwise.
I try my hardest to reply to all ask requests (if I have the motivation to) but I may either miss something or not feel inclined to. Itโs not an invite to send it multiple times or spam me because Iโll just block.
I donโt do character x character. (unless itโs relevant to the fic) Point blank, end of. Black women are already grossly underrepresented as is. Iโm not writing for a hetero NB ship who already gets tons of love. Stop asking me that shit!
this should go without saying but please donโt trauma dump in my inbox/messages. Obv, Iโm fine with listening to folks vent (WHEN IM UP TO IT), but I deal with depression + bad anxiety quite often and Iโm not in the headspace to take on othersโ problems. On top of trying to churn out fics. If I post about having a bad day, your response shouldnโt be to ignore it and proceed to tell me about your shit. Have some common fucking courtesy.
explicit content including smut, kinks, mature themes such as drug/alcohol use, violence, self harm, suicide, mental health and weapons are talked about on this blog. Refrain from interacting if these topics make you uncomfortable. DO NOT REPORT BECAUSE YOU DONโT LIKE IT.
this blog is 18+, I do not condone or allow minors on my page. Understand, I can not single-handedly check every blog that follows me but if you are caught, I will block you. I implore you to use common sense and respect my boundaries.
this blog is also kink-friendly and nsfw for the most part. However, I will NOT write about or even entertain topics such as race or age play, minors, SCAT, r!pe fetishes or anything of the sort. It is an automatic block and report.
anons have been turned back on for the time being but this is a privilege and in the words of Ru Paulโฆ.DONโT fuck it up. Come into my inbox as if you have some sense or donโt come at all because if you act dumb, Iโll act straight stupid so letโs be nice :)

Morally Questionable Anime Milfs Submission Form
No mommy's perfect.
Welcome to the morally questionable anime milfs competition, where we pit hot moms who have made controversial choices against one another.
Fictional characters only please.
The term โanimeโ is used loosely for simplicityโs sake. Manga, visual novels, manhua, manhwa, donghua, etc. are also allowed. If you have a question about a specific character, just ask. Or go ahead and submit them anyway, and if I donโt feel they fit, I just wonโt include them.
Y'all know what milf means. I don't think I need to explain that one. Do feel free to tell me about your milf's sexiest qualities though.
Not limited to biological mothersโas long as the character fills a maternal role, it's fine.
This is NOT the place to submit outright abusive mothers (towards children, at least). The mom must genuinely care about their kid(s)/charge(s) and be someone who is not intentionally malicious. I would say it is alright to submit a 'bad mom with good intentions' who is trying their best, but still messing up, or a character that is a very good mother, but who's moral ambiguity arises from reasons Beyond their parenting. Example being the 'villain who's an excellent parent' trope. Just explain your reasoning to me, and I'll use my own discretion if I feel the character crosses a line.
I have not yet decided the bracket size, and will do so once I see the final submission count.
Some level of horniness in the propaganda is expected, but I will urge you guys try and keep things at a PG-13 level. Here's everyone's advisory notice now: Don't follow this particular competition if this type of content makes you uncomfortable.
Poll propaganda can be submitted through the ask box, replied directly on poll posts, or made as separate posts and then tagged with the blog name. Just be sure to keep things civil.
I'll keep the form open until June 15th. Have at it!

20 Rules of Social Etiquette my Father was adamant about:
1. Donโt call someone more than twice continuously. If they donโt pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to.
2. Return money that you have borrowed before the person that loaned it to you remembers to ask for it. It shows integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes.
3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is buying you a meal.
4. Donโt ask awkward questions like โOh so you arenโt married yet?โ Or โDonโt you have kidsโ or โWhy didnโt you buy a house?โ Or why don't you buy a car? Those are personal matters to be discussed at their discretion.
5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesnโt matter if it is a man or a woman, senior or junior. You donโt grow small by treating someone well in public.
6. If you take a taxi with a friend and he/she pays now, you are paying next time.
7. Respect different opinions. Remember what's 6 to you will appear 9 to someone facing you. Besides, a second opinion is good for an alternative.
8. Never interrupt people talking. Allow them to pour it out. As they say, hear them all and filter them all.
9. If you tease someone, and they donโt seem to enjoy it, stop it and never do it again. It encourages one to do more and it shows appreciation and understanding.
10. Say โthank youโ when someone is helping you.
11. Praise publicly. Criticize privately.
12. There is never a reason to comment on someoneโs weight. Just say, โYou look fantastic.โ If they want to talk about losing weight, they will.
13. If a colleague tells you they have a doctors' appointment, donโt ask what itโs for, just say "I hope youโre okay". Donโt put them in the uncomfortable position of having to tell you their personal illness. If they want you to know, they'll do so without your inquisitiveness.
14. Treat the janitor with the same respect as the CEO. Nobody is impressed at how rude you can treat someone below you but people will notice if you treat them with respect.
15. If a person is speaking directly to you, give them your full attention.
16. Never give advice that wasn't asked for.
18. Never ask a person's age or salary. It is in bad taste.
19. Always stand to shake someone's hand.
20. Never talk about your riches in the midst of the poor.

I just wanted to tell you, I came across your name in a book group - someone suggested your young wizard series as something to check out if one had enjoyed Harry Potter. I didn't have any expectations going in aside from the general 'kid discovers magic is real', and I started to read last night before bed. I woke up 3 hours ago and immediately grabbed the book, and mainlined it like a junkie. I'm going to the library today to get the rest of the series. I am 43 years old, I've never written a letter to an author before, but I just had to tell you - I think your story is amazing. I loved everything about it - you followed the rules of the universe that you built, and because of that, I was able to stay in the story right alongside Nita and Kit. It is *rare* that I don't get bumped out of a book when it breaks its own universal rules - the only other ones I can think of are the Fellowship of the Ring series and the Broken Earth trilogy. Anyway, I'll stop rambling, but I just wanted you to know that your writing is incredible, and you are now on my 'recommend this author' list. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
And thank you so much for letting me know! It's always good to hear I'm getting the job done. :)
As for the "rules" thing: I belong to one of the schools of (fantasy) writing that leans hard into the idea of limitation being key in both making things seem feel more real for your reader, and assisting them in fully grounding themselves in the story you're trying to tell them. (I just typoed that as "sell them", but that works too.)
Life is full of limitations: things you want but can't have, conditions there's no way to change but you wish you could. Without the ubiquitous reality of gravity underlying them, dreams of flying aren't worth much. So to feel realโat least from where I'm sittingโmagic, to fit in, needs rules: things it can do, things it can't. The tension between those two states (and on the characters caught between them) will be a potent driver of both plot and character development. And with my eye on the drama both of those rely on, I have zero time for the "wave your wand and shit happens" approach to magic in fantasy worldbuilding. That generally strikes me as both lazy and boring.
Then once the rules have been set up, it seems to me, the writer needs to stay in them and not casually screw around with the structure... any more than gravity will let (nonwizardly) people screw around with it, no matter how much trouble they're in. Here, consistency really matters. To break the rules on a whim is to betray the reader... which is not a nice thing to do.
Anyway: I'm glad this approach is working for you so far. That said: the underlying magic system in the Young Wizards universe reveals more of its complexities as the series goes on. I'm hoping those books will work for you too.
