Thank u for your reply I will start the drama right now 🤗

Hey no worries! Hope you enjoy

One of my favorite phrases my Creative Writing professor had for when you’re writing fantasy is ‘giving your story a Flux Capacitor’.

Because it’s not real, it doesn’t exist. But the way it’s thrown into Back to the Future, at no point does it throw the audience off or suspend any more disbelief than time travel would. You believe Doc when he says he created the Flux Capacitor - the thing that makes time travel possible, because the universe never questions him. 

So it essentially means like, there are going to be elements to your universe that are just not gonna make any sense, even if you set up a whole system based on it. And the only way to make it work is completely own it. You cannot second-guess your system or else the reader will too. You can give it the strangest explanation, but write it like you own it.  

Weird family circumstances people I  know are actually in

divorced parents still live in the same house with their new spouses 

six half-siblings from five other mothers

inherited a fuck ton of money from their father they never even met

half-siblings with the same dad that were born three weeks apart

didn’t know their stepdad wasn’t their biological father until they were like seven

her big sister is one year older than her but two grades below her

sister 1 slept with sister 2’s boyfriend which is the reason sister 3 stopped talking to sister 1 meanwhile sister 1 and 2 stayed really close

parents had the same last name even before they got married

Write, draw, sing.

Create something that's fun. Sketch terribly, write something that doesn't make sense. Sing about something random.

Have fun creating something. Do it for yourself. We get so caught up with doing things to get better, to be the best or to make money.

Yeah them things are good. But they become a chore you're not having fun doing them. Plus when your having fun and experimenting you're learning.

You might experiment with a new art media and discover you really enjoy working with it so you do more pieces.

You might write a random sentence or paragraph that sparks another idea that you'll write later.

You might come up with a song idea or hit that note you couldn't before. You might come up with a really fun song to share with others.

Experiment. Create. Enjoy.
