writing tips - building rapport

rapport is a relationship between two characters, the pattern that their interactions usually follow and how they consider each other. sometimes this changes over the course of a relationship, but it can be hard to figure out where to start. Here are some tips to help with dialogue and relationships!!

Write fanfiction for your story. sounds stupid, hear me out. take your characters out of the context of your plot and plop them in an AU. don't worry about keeping it consistent with your story, just focus on their conversation. how would they react stuck in an elevator? would they get along as coworkers? use it like a writing exercise.

don't let them shut up. more dialogue is good, it can be trimmed out of the final product, but that information and knowledge will be in your brain! practicing the different elements of these relationships helps conflict and resolution be written easier.

switch POVS. sometimes it's hard to write dialogue because the worldview isn't right. If the character narrating the scene has no connection to it, it'll sound boring and disengaged. hop around, find one that really resonates.

love you hope this helps xo

so there is a fic on AO3 that had me in a CHOKEHOLD ISTG. It's a Javier Pena fic, basic premise is an enemies to lovers where reader gives him a kiss for every pill he has to take after he gets shot, and by the end...!!!! has all the best tropes guys seriously I love it. it's called 'Ten days" just search javier pena and the title, you'll find it.

well.

I decided that a great lil spinoff will be bestowed on our other favorite emotionally constipated himbo.....Miguel O'hara!

yay

so...stay tuned for that, ig, probably will start posting soon? (I'll link it in this post later)

writing tips pt. 2- angst

angst is all about the sad, heart wrenching stuff. usually, there's quite a bit of internal narrative because its the best way to truly experience the pain. well, when writing a train of thought, write it like the thought appears. this might mean breaking the grammar rules. that's ok! it might give grammarly hemorrhoids but whatever. a break in the system, so to speak, draws the reader's attention. Shakespeare does this when he breaks the meter. the stutter in the pattern makes the audience go 'hey, that's important,' and the context directs the new feeling. same thing!

Anxiety - typically spiralling, out of control thoughts. formatting might look like: a lack of commas, cut off sentences, repeated words, unpredictable sentences ->

"no no no no couldn't be happening this isn't real please no god don't let it be them-"

anxious vocab (behavior description)

tremble

unsteady

stutter

cower

whimper

quake

fret

keen

Anger - similar to anxiety, racing thoughts that get angrier and angrier. builds up, add more expletives, italics, language gets more intense. Anger is be more verbal, so add some actual dialogue in the middle ->

how could they. unbelievable. one fucking job, and they screwed it up. it was all so perfect, so fucking precisely planned and they couldn't get their head out of their motherfucking ass long enough to-

"DAWSON! GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE!"

tip - italics are a little better than caps lock. idk why but we've all equated italics to intense emotion. caps is kind of jarring and more like a shout. 'shout' is different than 'bellow'. which sounds angrier? bellow, right? like in my previous fluff post, vocabulary and dialogue description is a biggie.

running out of angry vocab, try:

bellow - shout, but with more of a roar

seethe

stew

growl

rage

furious

venomous

bristle/bristled

spat

spew

hope this helps! xo

IF I SEE THIS ONE MORE FKING TIME UGGGH

the phrase:

" (xyz) left little to the imagination" DOES NOT REFER TO MODEST OR NON REVEALING CLOTHING

IT IS THE OPPOSITE.

IT MEANS. LITTLE TO IMAGINE, BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE

ALLLLL OF IT

LINGERIE LEAVES LITTLE TO THE IMAGINATION

A SWEATER DOES NOT.

STOP MIXING THEM UP 😤

thanks xo
