it's your turn to share!!!
original characters make the world go round, but it can be hard to get people excited about them. but we're building a space to celebrate your love and hard work!
you can send in/link a post you already made or just make a brand new introduction to your OC and their lore, as in depth or simple as you like! and we will share it so more people can have a chance to see. we want to be your microphone to spread the news of your characters, new or old, serious or silly, dramatic or simple, elaborate or otherwise. we can also share links to things like webcomics, games, or other amazing things you've made or started making that star those ocs!
this blog is a curated gallery of your creative excitement. it is not a place to take other people's ideas or art, of course. let's share with the intention of also making others feel seen and heard, and make it a positive space for finding new creators to hype up. none of these characters belong to this blog, which should be clear. all art and ideas will be clearly sourced, and if you want more, you can follow the creator that is linked. for that reason, we will not take anonymous submissions of characters-- however, the ask box will be open for your thoughts. it would be lovely to connect people looking for collaborators! to be clear, fan characters are allowed (ie a character that you created, but that goes with an existing property)
we will tag content as appropriately as possible. if you would like to add on to your post or share that you have commissions open, we would be happy to spread that as well.
if your character has been reblogged and you would prefer the post be removed, please message and it will be addressed ASAP, but of course there will be no reposting or otherwise falsely claiming ownership of any content. we are spotlighting you! we are absolutely not taking or claiming anything.
feel free to use your own art, art that was made for you (with permission and credit, please), or art made with a tool like picrew. we will also share picrew makers that help us with the creative process! your post does not have to have art, either, but it may help in getting others excited for your ideas.
you deserve to share your OCs with a broader audience and have your hard work recognized! we would love to help you out. and if you love finding new characters to fall in love with, and new creators to adore, please follow this blog for more.
need a place to start? consider this template! make a picrew! or just tell us your favorite parts!

Okay, so. I’m going No Non-Blacks November this year
Nothing extreme. I just want the space to be showcasing only Black characters. I know - it’s already a space exclusively to show Black female/femme characters, and it will continue to be. But, the thing is that I go searching for characters to reblog, outside of my own fandoms and interests, and one thing that I have found and learned is that so many of these characters are typically either surrounded by or paired up with nonblack characters. 
Outside of the Unholy Trinity of Nigga Creators (IYKYK), I rarely find black characters interacting much with other Black characters. So, I want to set aside some time for those types of characters and interactions. A lot of us come from communities with Black people everywhere, and yet, whenever TV gets to gettin, you see one every few episodes or a few in the background or whatever. That’s not how I grew up and that’s not neighborhoods that I’ve lived in. Even when I’m in an area that’s predominantly nonblack (like I’ve lived in Mexican neighborhoods and live in a mostly South Asian neighborhood now) - and whenever I see Black people, they’re usually interacting with other Black people, still. 
So, November, I am gonna have BFCD be like a neighborhood where you see Black people everyday, whether they’re family, in a relationship, simply friends or work associates. 
You might think that’s simple to find, but it is not, actually. And I’m probably not gonna try to do this again, but I’m currently curious... So, if you know of Black characters that have content with other Black characters (hoping for things other than family, as that’s usually what you find (somebody and a parent or somebody and a sibling... like... them characters do not associate outside of their house with NO Black people? Ever?? That sounds sad and traumatic. Friendships. Couples. Shoot, I’ll take enemies and rivals, even. Just. Give a bih some to work with. 
So far, I will have characters from this tag: Black Love You may notice that its like... the same dozen or so couples, if that. Gonna have more All American couples, and stuff. I just... need gifsets and whatnots that have Black people loving/liking/fw other Black people. Because ISTG we do in real life. 
So, if you have ideas and faves and things, the inbox is open (not to anons), or you can reblog this with suggestions, or reply. (I respond in replies from neshatriumphs)

Calling all Queer writers and artists!
I am in the process of developing a web-based literary magazine exclusively publishing Queer (LGBTQ+) creators. This magazine is themed around the juxtaposition of Queerness and Cannibalism; for more information / if you or someone you know are interested, please continue reading! :)
HOME | From Heart To Stomac (al332219.wixsite.com)
About From Heart to Stomach:
From Heart to Stomach is an online literary journal that aims to contradict social and cultural taboo perceptions of the Queer community through a juxtaposition of Queerness and cannibalism. To do this, we publish work that expresses topics like Queer craving, consuming love, bodily worship, wholesome home-cooked meals, and desires. From Heart to Stomach publishes work exclusively done by Queer persons; we accept poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and (scans/images of) artwork. We love discovering new writers and artists, and aim to accept unpublished pieces first and foremost.
Historically and contemporarily, Queer love and identity are often seen as a taboo that is ‘grotesque’, ‘vulgar’, ‘unnatural’, and ‘predatory’. This language is additionally associated with another taboo: cannibalism. From Heart to Stomach uses this language and these taboo perceptions against themselves, by merging and blurring the lines between Queerness and cannibalism; both emphasizing and challenging their connotations.
From Heart to Stomach wishes to welcome readers into the intimate realities of Queer love by platforming Queer work that reframes language and perception, and ultimately reclaims Queer connotations of love and desire.
From Heart to Stomach is open for submissions!
The deadline for submissions to be featured in our first issue is:
April 10th 2023 by 11:59 PM
From Heart to Stomach publishes work exclusively done by Queer persons; we accept poetry, fiction, nonfiction, photography, and other artwork. To be accepted, submissions must align with our theme of juxtaposing Queerness and cannibalism; pieces should include language and/or imagery representative of such. This work can express topics like Queer craving, consuming love, bodily worship, wholesome home-cooked meals, and desires. We accept work by established and emerging writers from all over the world. We love discovering new writers and artists, and aim to accept unpublished pieces first and foremost.
If you have questions and/or wish to submit your work, contact Editor Austin Lawrence through our ‘Submissions’ page on our website. Please include a brief bio with your submissions, and please only submit up to 3 pieces for each genre of writing and 5 pieces for any artwork. There are no fees for submissions.

Fiction & Nonfiction work - up to 6,000 words

Fix It February
My friends know that I intended to do special focuses on Fix It Fics and AUs where Black femme characters got what they deserved instead of what the media gave them (including survival), but between the two jobs, the weather, and my health, it did not happen this year. :( 
However, if I’m still with y’all next year, I’ll have that be an event. Until then, if anybody HAS any fix it things that center Black femme characters, I do accept submissions on this blog. 😭

Also if you are a gif maker who don’t hate me and make gifs with Black female characters, feel free to tag the blog.

Oooo, can i plz hear all your jealousy HC for the bayverse boys? :3 hope ur week is going well!
oh my god yes
jealous turtles from most to least ◡̈
(all turtles + reader are adults ♡)
1. raph
c’mon, did you expect anyone else?
being a middle child with three brothers, raph grew up sharing everything he had—his food, his clothes, his personal space. so when he finds someone he has feelings for, he makes a point that he’s not going to share with anyone.
his brothers prefer to take more subtle, graceful methods of claiming their s/os when they feel threatened. raphael does not have a subtle bone in his body.
if someone tries to hit on you while he’s there, he will physically put himself in between the two of you, glaring down at his prey target until they take the hint (and probably flexing his crossed arms as he does so. he doesnt do all of that lifting for nothing).
vern tried to chat you up, once, when you first met. raph swiftly handled it, and you’re not exactly sure what was said, but vern now makes a point to keep a very conservative amount of space between you and him at all times.
a lot of his jealousy comes from insecurity—he definitely thinks you could do better, find someone you could actually walk around with, show off to your friends and go on vacations with.
so how does he cope? by proving his indispensability to you. when you date raph, you don’t lift a finger. need something from the top cabinet? he’s got it in his hands before you even have to ask. want to see a sold out concert? how convenient, he just managed to find some floor seats for you and your friends
don’t ask how he got them, it’s really best for everyone if you don’t actually know (both legally and ethically speaking).
asking someone else for help (god forbid you ask vern or one of his brothers, especially leo) will probably end up in some icy silent treatment and very short yes/no answers to questions that can only be cured by insistent apologies and lots of kisses
2. mikey
oh, our beloved little mikey
mikey spouts confidence, but much like raphael, he is deeply afraid that you’ll leave him for someone whose complexion is a little less green
while raph’s jealousy is defensive, mikey’s is pleading. he needs a lot of verbal reassurance that you’re his, nobody else’s
even when he’s not feeling jealous or insecure about the relationship, he just likes to hear you say it—and once you do, he’ll believe it wholeheartedly, all doubts and anxieties set aside (for the time being, at least)
when you’re around others (and even when you’re not) mikey is extremely physically affectionate, and probably will mention to anyone who will listen in a very unsubtle manner that the two of you are dating and really, really happy together, thank you very much
if you’re sitting, you’re sitting on his lap (or so close that you might as well be). if you’re standing, you can bet that he’s got an arm slung around your waist or your shoulder—just so everyone in the room is clear who you came with and who you’re leaving with
3. donnie
donnie’s jealousy is quiet. he’s much less outward about his feelings of jealousy than raph or mikey, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
when you mention a creepy guy from one of your classes getting a little too close for your comfort, he’ll nod and empathize; little do you know, he’s got the guy’s social security number, address, and name of his childhood pet pulled up on his laptop within seconds.
mysteriously, he doesn’t really show up for class anymore. rumours float around about some pretty shady things hes done being sent to the dean, president, and every RA on campus.
you confront donnie, and he just shrugs innocently. huh, weird, guess it’s a good thing you guys don’t hang out anymore then right? and then he’ll change the subject, but the triumphant gleam in his eye doesn’t go unnoticed
if someone starts to get flirtatious with you while donnie’s around though? all bets are off.
standing at 6’8 and made of pure lean muscle, donnie is fully aware of how intimidating he is, and it radiates off of him.
all it takes is one glare, leering from over your shoulder, and suddenly the person trying to flirt with you has some very important business to handle on the opposite side of the room for the rest of the night.
when you turn around to see donnie standing behind you, one hand on the small of your back, he’s back to his relaxed, smiley self
4. leo
leo is definitely the least jealous of his brothers. he’s confident, bordering on arrogant, and knows what he brings to the table.
i mean, c’mon. the barista who wrote their number on your coffee cup may be cute and share your taste in music, but how many times have they saved new york from an alien invasion? can they do anything to protect you in the event of a foot clan takeover?
didn’t think so.
communicating and trust are monumental to leonardo. right off the bat, he’s very straightforward about his intentions with you, and expects the same level of loyalty from his partner
leo’s trust isn’t easily earned so if he trusts you, then he does so completely and wholeheartedly. if you say that you and someone else are just friends, then he won’t think twice about it
that’s not to say he never gets jealous though. he’s just much more lowkey about it than the others
if you mention offhand being catcalled on your way to the lair one night, you’ll have a private escort for the foreseeable future
hes not big on pda, but you can bet that if he catches someone else’s scent on you, especially another guy, he’ll be extra cuddly when he sees you
he’ll for sure try to play it off though and subtly give you something that smells like him. oh, you seem cold, here’s one of his hoodies that he conveniently had on hand. go ahead and put it on. he’s just looking out for you, no ulterior motives here.
you see right through him, but you’re willing to look the other way for some extra snuggles.
