Hey writeblr I have a question!

So I often see posts in the same vein as this one here:

Things along the lines of "oh my characters are always changing the story, they're the ones that are really in charge."

#writeblr #writers of tumblr #..... i feel like you can tell by the fact that i'm asking this question #that this is something i find really funny but it's not something i... relate to? #so i'm just really curious how common of an experience this is #i'm excited to see! #polls #writeblr poll #writing

Just a little poll for anyone who wants to answer!

If you say your answers in the tags please don't be weirded out if I sneak over to your blog, like a hundred posts, and eat all your stories 🙏

Example of a "true AU" would be something like "Star Wars, but set in a high-fantasy setting." (For example, all the lightsaber duels have been replaced with sword fights or magic duels, and the space fights with magic-powered airships.) So the plot and characters remain the same, but the story is transposed to a new setting or genre.

An example of a "what if" AU would be "Star Wars but Luke and Leia were raised together." So it's the same setting, but some key plot elements (character dynamics or roles, events, etc.) have been changed.

Btw, when I exclude fanfic from this, I don't do it because of pretentiousness or anything. Fanfic is fucking awesome. I just exclude it because AUs are already such a defined part of fanfic and fanfic culture. I'm curious to see if people who don't write fanfic (though there is a lot of overlap, I know) also come up with AUs for their characters, and to what extent.

Hey, writeblr! Who's ready for another silly poll?

#writing #writeblr #writers on tumblr #writing community #writing poll #writeblr poll #zac's polls #polls

[halfbit]

random poll because i am a curious little lad

by creator, i am referring to anyone who is making/wants to make something based on an idea or goal. so you could be a writer, a musician, a worldbuilder, cosplayer, etc. it does not necessarily have to be original.

limited answer options but i tried :( feel free to expand on this with more specific polls. i didn't include a "multiple of these" option, since while i know that would be the majority, i want to know what is the most reoccurring sources of inspiration.

also for clarity.

real life - includes things like, scientific phenomena, animals/animal behaviours, or recent/current events that are happening but may not necessarily be directly happening to you.

feel free to specify what kind of projects you usually make as well in the tags!

Ooooooh

I just got a fun idea from a website that I just visited on a "community-building" activity I could host that would be incredibly fun, for my "bring the writing community closer" project I've undertaken...

A writeblr trivia night. :) writers submit information about their blogs or things about their writing they've posted about (the latter being preferred) and make a trivia night out of it.

I think this would be really fun!

Would anyone be interested in this? I could possibly make it a semi-regular thing so that there could be several writers featured...

And I would announce ahead of time what writers are part of the trivia questions so people can go to their blogs and study up on them (encouraging people to engage with writers' blogs and possibly find writers they would otherwise never know about) before trivia night so it isn't like only writers' followers/friends they previously had would know the answers.

And if you've got any tips or tricks for managing these (especially as we go into nano month!), please add your best advice!

What's Your Average Word Count When You Write?

NaNoWriMo can make us feel like we're never writing enough, especially if we're falling behind the word counts we set for ourselves.

The reality is that everyone has different writing speeds, especially when they change between story themes and genres. Some of your stories will make you feel fired up more than others.

Let's pull the curtain back on the average word count we all write in our writing sessions (specifically outside of NaNoWriMo).

Be gentle with yourself when you sit down to write! We all have our productive days and our more challenging writing sessions.

Ask yourself what you have the energy for, then sit down and do what feels best for your physical and mental energy.

Psst—I typically write between 100-800 words or two pages (maybe 15-30 minutes on average) per session. But if I'm low energy, I'm happy just adding a few sentences!

Hey, writeblr people, I'm just curious about something.

#writers of tumblr #writeblr #writeblr poll

[bardicbeetle]

There has been a longing since you were a child to be of and only of the forest. To lose yourself in tangled roots and deep soft moss and upended trees. To wrap yourself in thick red clay and come back something wholly unhuman. To find the words and symbols that would shed for you the soft skin you carry for something furred or feathered or even cut from the bark-like flesh of the wood itself. The things in the woods don't need to carry the same fears you do. Their inevitabilities are not the same as yours. But you have always thought rotting here amongst the thick sweetness of a north woods swamp might feel better than suffering another moment in a body that has to someday do taxes, pay rent, buy gas--is it not enough to let your hair become the leaves?

Were you to erupt someday, the words found, the song sung:

[space-writes]

this question has been rolling around in my head, so writeblr:

bc i always think of it as the latter but if the former counts then i have written. a lot more books than i ever say i have...

#writeblr #writing #writblr #writing poll #writers on tumblr #writeblr community #writeblr poll #writers #writer things #my drafts don't count as books to me. those're drafts! #i wrote them and im proud of how many i've done but i never count them as 'books what i've written' #if they are books then im well into double digits of 'books written' lol
