I am rereading my old poetry and past me is fucking murdering me with these lines

[writingfish @writingfish1]

Do I have skin in this game? Yes. Do I care? No. It'll grow back and I'm too old for this.

[writingfish @writingfish1]

I love people who are obsessed with something because they will draw your attention to details that you've never noticed before.

I learned how to solder at a hacking conference today. I burned my shirt sleeve though.

[writingfish @writingfish1]

Can we apply "be the change you wish to see" to real life instead of just fanfic please?

[writingfish @writingfish1]

You know I'm kinda glad that we did a php-based ctf challenge during the cyber event I went to now. 😂

[writingfish @writingfish1]

@babykeabirb Aw man, that happened to me today too,

[writingfish @writingfish1]

@QuetzalPhoenix Incense?

[writingfish @writingfish1]

@ChiralGhoul I treat A03 like an archive, so it's going up there so I can find it again. If other people like it, great! If not, that's fine. That wasn't the point of posting it.

[writingfish @writingfish1]

Is there anything in the world that doesn't take practice?

[writingfish @writingfish1]

You know what I want? An entire book talking about how a piece of media was translated. Give me the accompanying translators notes as a companion book.

[writingfish @writingfish1]

Shoutout to that one time I got constructive criticism that said I write like a 13 yr old.

1) Not helpful because it told me nothing about what was wrong or how to improve.
2)That's actually a compliment because I want my writing to be understood by people.

quick hydration check. have we consumed a single molecule of water today or are we expecting the iced latte to perform a miracle

Look at this line I wrote. I really like it.

"He took another breath and tried to close the maw; it chewed its way through him instead, spilling out as tears."

@skizyuri It's okay to tell readers something, but a good exercise might be to read something and try to see if the author is showing you something or outright telling you something.

[writingfish @writingfish1]

The fic I'm mad about was last updated in 2016 and ends on a cliffhanger...it is very much loved, but will never be finished. There is no hope of the author finishing it because the author is me. 😭

Work has temporarily killed my creativity. I will (hopefully) resurrect it at the end of October.

[writingfish @writingfish1]

@coldhotsummer Yep, but I tell myself I will only write one sentence even if it's terrible...then I end up writing a paragraph.

[writingfish @writingfish1]

@nnoctiv It might go away...give it five years or so.

[writingfish @writingfish1]

If it's for a small enough fandom or rare enough pairing/kink/whatever, I promise you people will not care. They'll just be happy you're feeding them.

if you feel like you have a good idea for a fanfic but don’t think you can write a good fic without AI, please (& I cannot stress this enough) write it badly. write a bad fic. its how you learn. its how you improve. its how you develop as a writer. write the bad fic, I’m begging.
