Five years ago, in the summer of 2019, with a help of a talented illustrator and my friend twt @ kinsey_jinn I’ve launched my original project “Abo Ofo” (The Eye of the Storm). Since then there’s been a prologue ready. Meet Nur and Svart:

I’ve watched hours and hours of videos on writing, building plot and characters and I want to say that western and asian plot structure is so obviously different ij the core. Mainly because audiences are different— they expect different things.
Starts as action and becomes emotional very fast
There is one, I think of it often mainly because it’s the scene from the very first piece. It’s a scene when the princeling is kidnapped by the rebel.
I really want to find an artist for it to be adapted into comics. At least 🥲
I don’t know how many years it will take me to publish my short stories (or to convert them into another media); but I realize all my shitposts are going with me into the future.
Sns is still pretty mainstream, even after all these years — that’s saying something.
I have also joined civil discord for writers, but it seems a bit more intimidating and fast-paced. People are there for less fun stuff like making your pre-existing blorbos kiss in 50 ways. The atmosphere is less casual.
Some also have their “writing diaries” where they track the progress. So this one really hepled — I’ve mentioned it before, but I’ve written nearly 58k of words on summer. Tracking your own progress works.
So I’ve joined a fic writer discord this spring and it actually helped me to write. First of all, there’s an age limit (30+), second — vast and I mean VAST amount of fandoms and I love this. Crossovers I couldn’t even imagine — this is amazing. Third — annual events with feedback.
And then a random fic finally gives me an idea and a vision was looking for.

Never underestimate fanfiction. It’s free, it’s brilliant and it’s always a labor of love (unless you use ai to generate slop).
Writing is a joke. I’m sitting here for months, trying to figure out how do I write my antagonist so that a reader would be scared of them — how to give this sense of dread and disgust. I watch hundred of videos on script, on concepts, on formulas in movies.

i constantly think about this post
No, but really, someone needs to study this: how economic recession affects themes in pop culture. Like how low birth rates affect mangakas and their hunger for money — so they start slapping shit together just to make their dead title produce money again.
Finished my crack parody shitpost fandom movie social media au fic. Yes, all of this and it’s sns.
I used real magazine articles and threads where people fight with each other about pairings and melons.
I hope they live long and happy life 🩷
Idk, seems like she didn’t read a lot of books. They’re too depressing 😐

Some people just seem to want to eliminate all potential sources of discomfort, no matter how small or innocuous, from their lives. Fiction allows you to model experiencing big emotions in a safe controlled setting, and I just don't think any good comes of avoiding that to this degree
A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.
I plan to do this “50SOG” thing and write a fic like this is my original work. And then change names back to the characters of the original.
I think my friend shamed me for not using AI? The exact phrase was “well, I don’t judge you for not using AI because you’re not making regular money with your photos”.
Like yeah, it’s not my day-to-day job, but I also don’t want to pay Adobe. Fuck them.

LOVED this episode pointing out the genuine truths along with concerns and the issue of unsustainability of gen AI: The more AI slop spammed online to poison repositories the faster it sabotages itself & implodes.

Got myself two new pretty notebooks for writing down my thoughts. Sometimes I would lost in my own plot and writing down everything on the paper helps to see the bigger picture.
That’s why it’s very important to learn how to write from the very young age — it helps the brain to learn.
Spent about an hour writing a speech. The speech is fictional for fanfiction, but it’s a public speech nonetheless.
2000 words in a day and it’s a crossover fic. And it’s after I’ve put about another 2k words of new lore for another series of short stories.
