yea u right
that’s why I said they aren’t conceptually bad, they aren’t guaranteed to be poorly written even if it’s really easy to do so.
probably should’ve mentioned that in the post lol. thank you for adding to my lil discussion :)
if you think about it. the best written characters are, at their core, self inserts
they say write what you know. y’know, using personal experience to understand what a character would do or feel. so the best writing for a character you can do will essentially always be based off personal experience or qualities.
why do you think Saint is the way he is. he is just an idealized version of my current worldview and moral values, wanting to always be helpful and respectful. Arti is an extension of my experiences with self-hatred, overthinking and conflicting emotions, wrapped in an angry exterior. Aven is just… me in freshman year of highschool, with a little less depression.
in short. I don’t understand why self inserts are considered conceptually bad. bcuz the best written characters are just well-disguised extensions of yourself.
or maybe I need some sleep. eh. could go either way
To assert writers are, at the very least, people with a subjectively adequate WIP devolves our status as writers into something quite arbitrary.
Writers are those that use text to communicate ideas, entertain, or generate discussion via a range of styles and genres. A writer can also be any person that authors a singular story, an entire book, an article or even a blog.
If you find yourself expressing thoughts and ideas through written words you're a writer. Don't heed the takes of petty people— one compelled to so easily, and unconstructively, question the worth of other's merely seeks to project their own shortcomings and fears.
a little discussion....
So recently (the past couple weeks) I have been receiving a couple asks from a few people.
I'm not going to name names because I don't want to be that person. I'm not sure what I did to aggrivate this person and frankly I do not care.
All this person has said to me are crule things, stuff concerning my life and we'll being and stuff concerning how I can't be a real writer without a solid WIP.
Of course these words have affected me, which is why I've decided to put my whole "writing blog" on hold for a while.
Im not sure when I'll come back, but I know it won't be for a while, I need to take sometime for myself and reboost my mental health a little.
to my mutuals and followers you guys are amazing and I love you all dearly and I hope to come back. Take care now ❤️
Me when my friends ask if the Delefaye are gods or not, and if they aren't, how have they gotten away with being considered gods? And if they are gods, why don't they do more? With time, they shall find out, but I want to share my master plan right now 😔
