I just think people write out of obligation too often.

"How do I motivate myself to write through the boring part of my story?"

"How do I make this boring scene not boring?"

Don't write it.

Don't write boring things just because you think the structure of the story demands it. I promise it doesn't need to be there.

If your characters need to have gone shopping for a later part of the story to make sense you can just have a sentence about how they went shopping and move on.

You are not obligated to write the boring parts. No matter what those parts are.

You are not obligated to make the parts of your story that you're not excited to write interesting somehow.

You can just write the fun and interesting parts and gloss over and summarize boring things.

Your audience will thank you and you will thank yourself.

Yeah, but how can I call myself a writer if I never write anything?

I mean I don't want to write anything.

But how am I a writer if I just stop writing

the-bar-sinister

Pal I hate to break this to you but I think "not wanting to write anything" is probably the one thing that could actually make you not a writer.

i-dont-know-one-bit

Yeah fair...

I know...

I've written a lot and I have so many projects I've just abandoned for no real reasons

And I'm scared of losing the few projects I've got left... but I guess you can't be an artist without the passion

Idk what to call myself now... a what-if I guess

Lol

the-bar-sinister

I hope you can take some time and find that passion again, and dive into something that grips you, whether that’s writing or something else <3

Anonymous asked:

Which vice-admirals do you think are the most interesting?

Aside from Smoker, Tashigi, Hina, and Rosinante, I hate every single marine in One Piece. Yes, this includes Koby.

The vice admiral who’s the most *interesting* is Garp, because he’s a piece of shit abuser who can cognitive dissonance his way into taking in a child he claims to care for and breaking down their self esteem and leaving them to be raised in the woods by bandits and literally standing by while they’re executed in front of him, and still believing he upholds goodness and justice.

I actually don’t think there’s a character in One Piece that I hate more than him.

(In the future, these kinds of questions would probably be better aimed at @savage-sinister were I do most of my actual blogging now)

Fanfiction literally cannot "normalize" anything. Fanfiction is a weird little niche and fics are not something with massive cultural impact.

. . . Dipper Goes To Taco Bell?—

the-bar-sinister

What did it normalize?

What taboo or controversial idea that was portrayed in Dipper Goes to Taco Bell is now considered normal and healthy by society that wasn't before?

arandomao3user

Ah, nothing mate, I was just joking around and forgot the /j tag.


My bad entirely. I agree with you completely as someone who worships Ao3 and writes fanfic 24/7 (working on it as we speak) and thank you for making the post to begin with. ♥︎

the-bar-sinister

Pal. Pal I am so relieved to hear you say this was a joke, thank you, you made my night XD

arandomao3user

Oh, no worries, mate. I honestly didn't think people have a stick that far up there rears that this wasn't like??? Common knowledge that reading fanfic wasn't gonna alter your entire existence and inspire people to start world war three or normalize cannibalism??? I thought that was TikTok non sense ToT


Sorry if I make no sense, I am sleep deprived from. Writing Batman fanfiction... Again.


Summary: I agree with you OP and am so so so so so so so so sorry for the misunderstanding ❤💛💚💙💜🙏

the-bar-sinister

😭😭😭😭😭🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

I wish it was common knowledge! I’d have so many fewer arguments on my posts! TYSM and get some rest– after you finish your batman fic!

Hi,how are yiu doing? Please,do you make fanfic requests? If yes: for what fandoms do you write? What you do or do not write? Thanks!

Brother, I’m an unhinged rarepair writing motherfucker who writes fanfiction in manic spurts of 500k over a span of 6 months in order to pay tribute to the insane visions in my head that tell me I was an anime character in a past life.

I don’t take requests. Thank you for your interest.

“Dipper Goes to Taco Bell is a force of cultural normalization.”

You people don’t even know what words mean, do you? you’ll just say anything.

ETA: they were joking! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
