I Was Enamoured By "tropes" In Storytelling When I Was 13 But I Got Over It By My Late Teens Because

I was enamoured by "tropes" in storytelling when I was 13 but I got over it by my late teens because I'm able to analyse narratives as their own entity and through more complex lenses as ppposed to pointing at something and blurting out "enemies to lovers" and patting myself on the back for it because I recognised an incredibly basic character dynamic and refused to think further about what function the character dynamic serves the narrative. And yes my nuts are huge I'm smarter than you and if you took this personally it's your problem :)

One-Time OC Ask Event Official Announcement

Hello, everyone!

I am pleased to announce that I have come with yet another event. :) this one is open to all and every writer. You do not have to follow my blog.

But before I get into the meat of explaining the event, I wish to give a shoutout to @the-writers-bookshelf, who runs a fabulous ask event EVERY OTHER Friday! This week is one such week. :) Fab Friday is a marvelous event where she accepts asks to let you gush about what you've been working on as a writer.

I have personally submitted for this event many times. One of my favorite parts of any week is when it's Fab Friday and getting her excited responses. She is so heartfelt and enthusiastic and will make you feel wonderful about your writing, so if you need a place to gush and feel appreciated, or if you just want to tell someone about a project you're working on, consider submitted for Fab Friday tomorrow, 9/2/22, and every other week thereafter.

Alright, so now to my one-time event!

This is inspired by my current really big project I've been working on. It has a huuuuge cast (20+ MCs, plus whatever minor characters there end up being).

So, the event is this: you reblog this post with a list of all of your characters and I pick a favorite name and ask that character directly, as though I'm interviewing them, a question. Heck, I might even do whole interviews, who knows?

Then you'll respond as though you are whatever character I said. It helps not only to get to know your characters, but your writing style and their voices. :)

In order to participate you have to post a list of your characters in a reblog of this post. You also have to have asks turned on.

If you don't know how to turn on asks, go to your settings for your specific blog you want to reblog this post to and go down toward the bottom. It'll ask if you want to accept asks and you need to make sure it's ticked to the right. :)

If you're on mobile, the option is in the little gear at the top right of your profile, scroll to the bottom and tick "let people ask questions" to the right.

I will only be accepting submissions/entries for this event the rest of tonight and all of tomorrow. Once Saturday (9/3) hits in my timezone, I'll stop accepting asks. I live in Pacific Time in America. :)

Have fun, guys, and if you want to ask people questions too that submit, you are welcome to!!

My list, in case you want to ask questions back (this list is not exhaustive): Jasmine, Kyle, Lucille, Phyllis, Elliott, Marcus, Belinda, Ikuisuus, Victoria, Maxie, Wahr, Betruger, Vanessa and Luka. :)

hi guys do you wanna see some drawings

Wh

When you want to progress on your own projects but you could be playing games but you could be drawing OCS but you want to make Fanart but you

so fond of characters who haunt their stories, who exist without actually existing at all. when a character is long gone, but persists in the actions and words of all the characters they have left behind. when everything to come unfolds because of them. when they are both dead and the beating heart at the very center of the narrative... that’s the stuff 💗__💗
