this is!!!! so intriguing! the cover is brilliant. revealing a hidden image with thematically relevant “rips” is one of my favourite things (probably not explaining that quite right, but basically what you did)

the recklessness of both characters?? imaculate. i can’t wait to see the shenanigans they get up to

i’ve been doing okay - fleeting concepts have been plaguing me, especially since having come to terms with my original, big scope wip not going anywhere (i’m keeping all the characters to do fun things with tho) namely, some set of four characters with thematically matching powers, and/or a narrative following the best friend of a typical “chosen one” who is thrown into an intensely magical world to help their friend

oh! and stuff with @pagesofcursive​ including revamping old (gay, very gay) wips and collabs with literally all our character

okay i just saw your reblog and,, queer beauty and the beast?? yes please, rant about it, I want to know everything you have

(also how have you been? we haven't interacted in ages)

Hiii Eve! I'm doing quite well, thank you! Plagued by WIPs as always and perphaps a bit more deranged, but feeling good and having fun >:)

How are youu? I miss interacting with you terribly, I seem to have fallen quite out of loop ;-;

The Thing Plaguing My Mind(TM):

The Beauty and the Beat retelling is currently sporting the working title And All the Lovely Beasts, and it's yet another self-indulgent fairytale retelling of mine (*pretends Cinders doesn't exist*)

The Beast, Leofel, is living a quiet life being plagued by his past and is weirdly reluctant to break his curse. He is kind and quiet in the way of someone who worked hard on not being otherwise.

Bo is a "castle thief", or rather a person who attempted to lock Leofel out of his own castle during his reckless attempt to pretend to be human and acquire some books in a nearby town. They are not at all eager to return to human society, and Leofel is happy to have a guest. But why does their face look somewhat familiar? And why does a certain wanted poster spring to mind?

*drops bookcover mockup and runs*

Okay I Just Saw Your Reblog And,, Queer Beauty And The Beast?? Yes Please, Rant About It, I Want To Know

That's about it for the new thing :3

Anything plaguing your mind? Pls, I am dying for a ramble

(also ppst @euphoniouspandemonium you also sent an ask about this (I love you))

Eli Writes Sometimes - Updated Intro/Masterpost

Eli Writes Sometimes - Updated Intro/Masterpost

Hey! I've been here for a while, but my old intro post isn't amazing, so I've decided to make an updated one, especially as I've got better at using Tumblr since I made that post.

About me

My name is Elias, but I go by Eli most of the time

My pronouns are he/it, and I prefer to be referred to using masculine terms

I'm a trans demiboy, asexual and demiromantic

I'm a minor, so please be respectful of that

Where to find me

My Wattpad (I haven't got a lot posted there, but I'm going to post more there)

I have a shitpost/fandom blog at @eli-is-an-idiot

My NaNoWriMo profile

I'm currently sorting out Ao3, but when I do, I'll post a link to that

About this blog

As you might have guessed, this is a writblr!

I've been reblogging things about writing more than actual writing, but I'm hoping to change that and post more of my own writing

My WIPs are under the cut

I write a mix of things, but my current main WIP is a fantasy story

Not ok with:

Any kind of hate speech or prejudice

TERFS, transphobes, homophobes, ableists, racists or anyone that doesn't respect other people's existence

Bullying

Ok with:

Being tagged in tag games - I love these, and I want to try and interact with other people in this community more, so if you want to tag me in anything, please do!

On a similar note, feel free to send me asks or DMs about your WIPs or OCs, or just anything you want to talk about, I'm always happy to listen!

On the other hand, if you want to ask questions about my WIPs, I'd love that :)

Also, if you want to be mutuals, I'd love that and just follow me, and I'll check you out, I'd love to be more active in the community :)

WIPs and navigation under the cut:

The Remnants of Shadows

My main WIP, and the one I'm doing for NaNoWriMo

Intro post HERE

Masterpost HERE

Genre - Fantasy, LGBTQ+

Status - First draft

Specific WIP tag - #wip - tros

Content warnings - heavy themes of death

Alya MacNamara has always been a pillar of their community, helping any kids who needed it with any of the problems life threw at them, so when he disappears, there isn't a soul that isn't devastated - but there's nothing they can do, right? But four of Alya's old kids don't accept this, and swear to find her - separately. The story follows these four as they realise that they aren't alone on the search, and as they try and get along with three others who they have nothing in common with except one person.

For All In-Tents and Purposes

Working title

Intro post HERE

Genre - Coming-of-age, LGBTQ+

Status - First draft

Specific WIP tag - #wip - aitap

Based on my experiences as a closeted transmasc person at a scout camp

One of my favourite things that I'm working on

A young trans boy, Elliot, is forced to go on a week-long scout, being forced to live around girls thinking he's one of them, boys who surely won't accept him, and judging adults watching him all hours of the day. The story follows him as he tries to navigate this harsh environment, and survive until Sunday with his sanity.

Stories 7 Year Old Me Would Have Wanted

On hiatus, I want to return to it after NaNoWriMo

Genre - Short story collection

Status - One story posted, second one being drafted

Specific WIP tag - #S7YOMWHW

Chapter One posted on Wattpad HERE

About 25% of it is me judging my younger self

I recently found a book from when I was about 7 full of prompts and story ideas. I had tried to start writing in it but had always lost motivation, or stopped writing and forgotten the "great idea" that I had. So I'm going to share the prompt, what I wrote then, and what I'd write now.

Enjoy, I guess, and have fun laughing at me as a small child.

Jason King's Guide to the Supernatural

Intro post HERE

Genre - Comedic horror

Status - First draft

Specific WIP tag - #JKGTTS

When Jason King takes a job at a sketchy-looking paranormal investigation company, he’s just looking for anywhere that didn’t ask any questions about why his passport doesn’t match the name that he applied with, not somewhere to make any lifelong connections. He doesn’t know what to expect from being the newbie at Simon Warren’s P.I.S.S (Paranormal Investigation and Sightings Service) Hotline, but it isn’t two bored teenagers who are completely over the seemingly-commonplace supernatural happenings all around them. The story follows Jason as he tries to adjust to his new life as a paranormal investigator and tries to stay alive while combatting ghosts, demons and insane clients.

Follow the Light

On hiatus

Genre - Fantasy, LGBTQ+

Specific WIP tag - #WIP - FTL

I'm probably not going to go back to this, I might, but it's been a long time

There's an author's note and a love letter posted on Wattpad HERE

This is a world of magic - everyone born with strange and dangerous abilities. When Caoimhe and Nyx meet, they are both hiding something. But will their friendship help them overcome the challenges presented by society, their families and, most of all, themselves?

That's all for now, thanks for bothering to read this far :)

I want you to remember something. Writing is not an innate talent that people are born with. I've read /so many/ things where people who are old enough to know better, decide to "write a book" because they felt like it, without any knowledge on how to actually write a book, then think they're shit is the best and doesn't need a rewrite or edits.

And I'm not talking about aspiring writers, either. Aspiring writers are people who actually want to learn how to write. We all start somewhere. It takes time and practice. I'm talking about the idiots who think they can wake up one day and write Shakespeare without any kind of preamble work up to actually making that first draft and think it's publishable.

Writing takes Time, Effort, Dedication, and Practice. It's like any other profession: you can't learn it over night. But people drive me insane thinking they could 'do my job' without any kind of experience in it.

Next time you writers - actual writers that day dream about your stories, write fan fiction, make original stories in your head as you go to sleep, anything that's any sort of preamble to actually writing - think that your writing sucks? Stop and remember this. Writing is a skill you learn. You've just gotta work that muscle until it's strong.

Some of you are stronger than you think.
