#yooooooo. I haven't gotten to use the #storytime sexcapades #tag in a hot while. but we finally back in it. #tag talk #I've said it before and I'll say it again. claiming old men are creepy for liking younger partners infringes on my right to like older guys #you can't penalize the old men without also depriving younger folk of their gilfs. #anyway. I finally got to sink my teeth into someone last night. was very good. I left a full teeth pattern on his shoulder. #also got to hear him talk about living in Washington DC back in the 1970s which was really neat. #talked about religion and coming out and his past relationships. was really fun. #felt a bit love-bomb-y at times but hard to distinguish between genuine verbose enthusiasm and emotional pressure. #but I'm a big girl I know how to set my boundaries. #he was definitely into men not women and kept calling me a man but weirdly enough it didn't bother me. #doesn't matter how he viewed me. I felt like myself. and that means more than what he sees me as #wait wait I forgot the beginning of the story. got stood up by a guy at the park and I was chilling out of my car in the darkness #and this couple shows up and she immediately bends over and he pulls down her pants and starts fucking her. #which means that unless I want to disturb and spook them.. I am stuck because my car is close to theirs and it'll make noise #honestly funniest situation I've been in. and then the old guy hit me up and I accepted that I would have to interrupt them #so I coughed very loudly first and then went to my car and left #I stayed the night and the next morning (today) he shows me his apartment and I think he's republican??? #he has a framed picture of Ronald Reagan. A FRAMED PICTURE OF RONALD REAGAN. #also the novelty Biden toilet paper. #am I a bad person now? #have I accidentally betrayed my people and my cause?

Since we both like analysing, I'm having an issue. Why is it that I'm finding it harder to write about my bias in a group than about other members?? Shouldn't it be the other way around? TXT being the most recent example, I've already written 2 things for Yeonjun, 1 for Beomgyu and 1 for Soobin (not yet posted). I really wanted to make something for my main boo Tae Tae but all i seem to be able to do is drool over aesthetic edits. It's not like I haven't got thoughts in my brain, they just don't want to to come out! What do you think?

yooooooo, my roommate and i have talked about this a little, actually!! we realized that when we watched reactors, they were more likely to be really vocal about their bias wreckers and it was really hard to tell who their actual bias was until they said it outright, and then we looked at our own conversations and like—you'd never be able to tell she was Hobi-biased with the way Joon makes her loudly and frequently wish for death. in the same vein, if you show me unfair selcas from my wreckers (lookin at YOU JK, Soobin, Changbin 😤), you'll get a good twenty-minute diatribe of anguish and fury, whereas if you show me how beefy Yoongi has gotten or Yeonjun being... Yeonjun, i'll just. sigh a sigh that comes from deep in my old, brittle bones and go lay face down in the dark for half an hour.

and that's just in terms of general fannish behavior, but i think it can definitely apply to writing, too—Soobin isn't actually my bias, but you'd NEVER be able to tell from skimming my blog, and as much as i love to yell about my inbox being full of Soobin-fuckers, i am definitely a part of the problem 😔😭😂

i feel like there's a lot of factors that go into it—for me personally, the stuff i want to write for biases tends to be more ambitious (please don't ask me about my multi-chapter genderfucky Yoonji epic, i'll cry if i think about it too hard 💀), and when you're writing about your bias you're also gonna hold yourself to a higher standard than usual, and that combo of big goals/perfectionism definitely makes ME a less productive writer.

i think it's also a lot easier to get caught up in little details when you're writing/thinking about your bias, just because those details are so enjoyable to linger on—watch me spending half an hour going through pretty pictures of Wonwoo because how am i gonna write my secret werewolf romance if i don't know the exact color and style of his hair???? 😭 or me watching the wolfgang stage five times in a row as """inspiration""" for my 80k werewolf Bang Chan epic and then being too horny and distracted to actually write the damn thing 💀

if you want like, actual writing advice, tho

i think this has been the single most helpful thing i've read, re: actually getting stuff written

stop giving a fuck about stuff like quality and coherency, and just worry about getting stuff down, on paper or on a screen. if you have a lot of ideas running through your head throughout the day, but they all seem to disappear when you actually sit down to write, then don't wait for that time to sit down to get them down. pop open the notes app on your phone or a lil notebook to keep on hand to jot them down as they come to you; i know other people use voice notes, and those people are braver than any fuckin marine. figure out what works for you, and don't be afraid to change things up and try new methods! i have folders upon folders in scrivener because i'm a slut for organization, but i'll also sometimes write in already-queued tumblr posts to put pressure on myself.

when i'm writing anything longer than a few paragraphs, the easiest way for me to make it happen is to outline it in bullet points, just the bare bones X happens, then Y happens, then Z happens. when i get to the parts where i'm more ~inspired~ it definitely turns into some real ass writing shoved into a bulleted list format, but there's also points where it's like "oh no fight gets real ugly and cutting, actual feelings getting hurt??? ;(" or "somehow they go from yelling on opposite sides of the room to uhhhhhhh fucking on the desk, idk we'll figure it out later." it's clunky and rough, but it's a skeleton that i can start to build off of, and fleshing out and dressing up a full page of mediocre outlining is a lot easier than just trying to shit out a full page of brilliance on your first try.

idk, a lot of the stuff that's made me a more productive writer is just making myself let go perfectionism and reminding myself that the point of writing (for me, at least) is for fun and for other people to read, and neither of those things happen when i spend days agonizing over two sentences. i think the real trick is figuring out what is keeping you from writing, and working from there to make writing an easier process for yourself.💕 i know you've got the words in you, boo, you just need to figure out how to get the faucet unstuck so they can flow.💕💕💕

I'm 14 and I'm a artist and was wondering how you can get people to follow you?? I've been posting for probably 2 months? Maybe 3 or 4 actually but still haven't gotten much out of anything- any advice? (P.s I love your art and personality it's so amazing thank you for drawing and showing us your talent!)

Yooooooo thank you! This is so sweet and I’m so glad you like my art, I find it really hard to express how grateful I am through text but this really made my day and I’m honestly honored you asked for advice from me! I’ll do my best to help! (also your art is really good like woah).

Well I don’t have a lot of followers myself, and tbh I have no idea what I’m doing, but now that I think about it maybe the way I personally got people to see my work is by being pretty active? because the more you post the bigger the chance is more people will see it, but you shouldn’t force yourself to be active and draw something only because you need something to post, And also I just want to add that even tho there’s nothing wrong with wanting to grow and to get recognition, you shouldn’t be too hard on yourself if it takes time! remember to let yourself have fun!

#i hope this helped! #ok and i wanna say thx again because what you said was so nice i screeched like wtf #ask
