my mutuals are the best writers !!!! they write the prettiest poetry and rhe prettiest stories and they OWN their craft and their styles !!! are so unique and enchanting i want to DROWN in them

“I’m your rival. I’m inconvenient even in death.” rivals to lovers my favourite!!

and the banter and the very end is amazing

i think the best thing about their dynamic in this scene is the mutual love for the others opposite approach to the world. playful vs serious, acting vs watching, energetic vs serene

they’re just amazing and so is your writing

a rival most vial excerpt: the boys are floating

It’s been a while since I’ve posted a longer snippet on here! again, not fully edited. just stuff I’m updating as I go through draft 2.

Synopsis: The boys are testing out their joint commission- a levitation potion with a purple wing illusion. (It’s a birthday present for the governor’s daughter.) They get into some shenanigans.

Word Count: 843

TW/CW: romance

Eli moved his arms, deftly turning himself into another tilted, slow-motion spin. Even his sun earrings floated as if he were swimming. “This is so cool—here, we need to try the dragon wings, while we’re still levitating.”

Ambrose plucked his glass from his hand and placed their cups on the cleaning table. The cleaning gemstones flashed, whisking away the last drops of potion at the bottom of the glasses. As he picked up the glasses and turned, he over-corrected and bumped into the sharp edge of his worktable. “Ow.”

“Hey, there.” Eli grabbed Ambrose’s waist, reeled him back, and turned him around to face him. A flush immediately crept up Ambrose’s neck, and despite the clothing between them, he felt every inch of Eli’s fingers as they slipped away to pour the yellow potion.

“This one might taste sharp,” Eli warned, and knocked it back much the same as the first potion. Ambrose imitated him once more, and scrunched his nose when the predicted sharpness hit the back of his tongue.

“You weren’t wrong,” he started, then paused. His shoulders suddenly felt a little heavy, and he twisted around to see what it was. 

Two dragon wings, wispy, ephemeral, and most of all purple, glimmered at his shoulders.

I love when I reblog something and immediately a mutual or follower likes it. It’s like yeah we ARE on tumblr at the same exact moment we ARE sitting next to each other in the library showing each other memes

Your first draft is not terrible.

It is not any sort of insulting name you call it.

It is a baby.  A young, inexperienced baby that might throw up on your shirt and cause you to lose sleep at night but you love it all the same and will patiently feed it and tuck it into bed at night with a kiss no matter what happens.

You do not call a baby stupid or awful because they are new to the world and do not have the ability or knowledge to function on their own.  Instead, you nurture and teach them so they grow up smart and strong and capable.

Such it is with a first draft.  A first draft is not bad because it needs care and attention. Don’t insult it because it is newly written down with ideas that are not yet fully formed.  In fact, that is the reason why it is AMAZING.  It’s a DRAFT!  The FIRST one for the story!  LOOK at it!  It exists!  It is ALIVE!  And it is YOURS, this story you made.  

So be proud of your first draft baby and, most importantly, be proud of yourself. 

hi eve !! kimchi and egg drop soup pls :)

hey rose! thanks for the ask!!

Kimchi Soup: Do you write best in first, second, or third POV? 3rd person. sometimes I struggle to get into characters heads with first, and it makes it harder to switch between povs. also I write mostly in that so practice makes it easier

Egg Drop Soup: Do you have any author/writeblr recommendations? tagging makes me nervous but here we go

@feywhisper @pens-swords-stuff @cloverfieldsforever @dumbbookshit @sleepyowlwrites @ellierenae @enchanted-lightning-aes @strangerays @vampire-with-a-pen @justapotatowriter @amberskywrites @ashen-crest @writing-is-a-martial-art @did-i-do-this-write @pagesofcursive and you ofc

this is mostly based on vibes as I don't read nearly as much of all their writing as I should, but they are all cool and amazing people

also angie sage is a classic for me with septimus heap, as is rick riordan, and I recently read legendborn by tracy deonn
