I literally can hear ari saying this to reader!

ahhhh YES i can too! and woah your vibes must be good cause i just wrote a scene where they fight over something along these lines...

i have all these ideas in my head but how do i make it into a coherent plot

Hi all! This is going to be a quick introduction because this whole thing is a massive work in progress, but welcome to the Writers of Color Archive, a project meant to set up and run a searchable database for writers of color in the writeblr community.

To put it simply, what we especially wanted to do is take the responses to @jezifster's post (see here) and make it easy to find new writers and content to support. Are you a [genre] writer who wants to interact more with other [genre] writers? Do you want to find Ko-Fis to donate to or Patreons to subscribe to? You should be able to do that and more once this project is running.

Right now, we're working on a Google Form attached to a Google Sheet. (There's an entry on the form to give you an idea of this might look like at the end.) Please note that if the form is what people want to stick with, it'll be another option to getting your info in the archive, rather than a complete replacement to the post itself. One of the many purposes of this sideblog is to keep up with the post and reblog new entries when we find them. Please feel free to continue reblogging the post.

Another purpose of this sideblog: To give you an opportunity to let us know what you need. And first and foremost, the form and the sheet aren't final just yet. Please feel free to test both out and let us know what you think! Is it easy to navigate? Is there information we can add? Something else we need to change? Please don't hesitate to let us know! Our anon asks are on, and we'll also be keeping an eye on replies and reblogs.

That's about all for now. Once we're sure we've got a system that works for everyone and the right info this sort of database needs, we'll be able to start the migration process. Thanks so much for reading, and thanks in advance for everything!

Tumblr won't let me reply to your trick or treat ask, but here it is your treat!

It's a quick dumb little playlist I made for the enemies to lovers trope! I hope you enjoy it.

*rings doorbell* Trick or treat! (@writingbyricochet)

@writingbyricochet here's a treat! lately, i've been working on the origin story of bari/the memories she has of colonization when she's younger (will there even be colonization in this novel i don't even know anymore) but here's a small snippet:

“Get down and submit to the new king.”

I remember the confusion on the villagers’ faces. The murmured whispers among one another. The linked fingers. The wariness.

Then the men in front of us sheathed their swords.

The kill happened in an instant. In a second, the blade drove through our village leader. Blood gurgled out of his mouth, a choked scream ringing through the air. No one even dared to gasp, women slapping their hands over their children who began to cry.

We all took a collective step back as the corpse—now reduced to an entity—fell on his knees, head banging against the ground. Sand fluttered through the air and created a misted wall—one that wouldn’t be strong enough to stop these soldiers.

“Kneel.”

The death’s effects lasted for weeks.

The first: our name changed into something more fitting, essentially cutting our ties with our past selves.

The second: our language changed. We could no longer communicate the way we used to.

The third: we had a collective understanding that we were being oppressed, but nobody commented on it.

As far as the rest of the world knew, we enjoyed colonization.

The irony.
