My Eyes Are Cloud In Ink

My eyes are cloud in ink

My face buried in soil

My mouth coughs up blood

I can no longer think

I can only toil

As I fall again with a thud

I can no longer see

I can no longer breathe

I can no longer try

My death should be assured

The reaper at my door

Why then,can I not die

AHHHHHH GUYS I GET ANONYMOUS POETRY NOW

Rip out my heart its yours anyway 😭

This is absolutely beautiful. Whoever you are you should post your poems (if you don't already), if they're anything like this one people should see them.

Hello my friends,

🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸❤🤍💚🖤

I am Mohammed Ayyad from Gaza Al-Shuja'iyya

,

I have sought refuge with you because of the devastating war that caused me to lose my home and my mother and we were displaced from one place to another and lost my children's future and there is a severe shortage of basic materials,

I have sought refuge with you so that I can provide a decent and safe life for me and my family consisting of my wife and my children Yasser, Omar, Maryam, Jana and Sarah, each of them has dreams but unfortunately they have lost hope and despair is controlling them,

I hope that you will stand by us either by donating if possible or sharing widely,

Thank you very much

🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸❤🤍💚🖤

noting that my son Omar has a Tumblr account under the name @m430235341 and it was checked and I had an account under the name @mohammadayyad and it was also checked but I was surprised today that it was banned so today I created a new account under the name @mohammadyaser1980, please check it and thank you 5, @mohammadayyad’s fundraiser.

DO NOT SCROLL

This is Haneen and Mohammed. They have been married for 6 years. Their dream was to have a baby together.

But their dream went with the destruction of the fertility bank and the gynecology clinic in northern Gaza along with the collapse of the healthcare system.

The supermarket near them was bombed.

Their only source of income was bombed.

They are also caring for Mohammed's (80-year-old) father. That supermarket was the only source that get them to survive and hope for having another baby someday when the war finished.

There is still a chance for them. Help them leave Gaza and find a better future.

DO NOT SCROLL

Please help with whatever you can, it could save lives.

How to Give Your Character Unique Dialogue: A Guide for Writers

Hey there, fellow writers!

Crafting memorable characters isn’t just about their backstory or physical traits—it’s also about how they speak. Unique dialogue can make your characters stand out and feel more real. Here’s a quick guide on how to give your characters a voice that’s all their own:

1. Know Your Character Inside Out

• Background: Where did they grow up? What’s their education level?

• Personality: Are they sarcastic, formal, shy, or bubbly?

• Motivations: What drives them? How does this affect their speech?

2. Use Distinctive Speech Patterns

• Catchphrases & Slang: Does your character have a favorite saying or unique slang?

• Rhythm & Pace: Do they speak quickly when excited or slowly when thinking?

• Filler Words: Um, like, you know—these can reveal a lot about a character’s confidence and background.

3. Reflect Their Environment

• Regional Dialects: Incorporate local idioms or accents.

• Professional Jargon: Use specific terms related to their job or hobbies.

4. Show Their Emotions

• Tension & Relaxation: How does their speech change under stress or when they’re relaxed?

• Subtext: What are they not saying? Use pauses and interruptions to show this.

5. Keep it Consistent

• Consistency is Key: Ensure their dialogue remains true to their character throughout your story.

6. Read Aloud

• Test it Out: Read your dialogue out loud. Does it sound natural? Does it fit the character?

7. Edit Ruthlessly

• Trim the Fat: Remove unnecessary words. Make every line count.

• Avoid Info-Dumping: Let dialogue reveal character and plot naturally, not as an exposition dump.

Example Time!

Here’s a snippet showing how distinct dialogue can differentiate characters:

Aloof Scientist:

“The quantum flux anomaly is, frankly, quite perplexing. However, if we calibrate the resonator to precisely 9.42 terahertz, we might just mitigate the interference.”

Street-Smart Rebel:

“Look, I don’t know shit about your fancy science talk, but if it’s gonna help us bust outta here, I’m all in. Just tell me where to hit.”

Happy writing, and may your characters’ voices ring true!
