I HAVE NOTHING.
Also, my cabin is kind of low on activity how do I get a new one. :C

Every time I reblog something I lose at least one follower.
Maybe I should go back to only blogging once every week so you people don’t actually notice I’m here.

legendaryarmor:
The world can be a pretty dark place sometimes, and a lot of people can suffer for it.
And in suffering, perhaps someone - perhaps you - have taken on a negative image of yourself. Maybe you feel like you’re not good enough, like you’re too weak. But that’s not true. Not…
My friend is a very lovely, inspirational person who is also apparently psychic because every time I...

how to be a writer
start to write something
pause and read over what you have so far
edit
write again
Sell First World Serial Rights or equivalent to a magazine or other publisher
Repeat
This is missing one step between the “start” and “pause” steps:

rewrite
And the all-important first step:
dream

Kids:
A few hours ago, I landed in Los Angeles, turned on my phone, and confirmed what you already know. Sony Pictures Television is replacing me as showrunner on Community, with two seasoned fellows that I’m sure are quite nice - actually, I have it on good authority they’re quite nice, because…
For fuck’s sake, NBC, stop ruining all my favorite things.

I just realized that my tumblr is the most random goddamn tumblr I’ve ever seen.
Not, “oh that’s so hilarious” random, but like, where the fuck is the point?

I read a sad case today of a young writer who had had her story rewritten into illiteracy by a so-called publisher, who then abused her in email when she wrote to complain. She wsn’t getting paid for her story — instead she was actually buying copies of the anthology to show…

I really wish I could get through a day without hating everything in the universe and wanting to crawl into the corner of my room and stay there forever.

Writing?
I post a lot about writing on this blog, but very little actual writing because I’m afraid of annoying people. Gifs are fun and pretty and people like them when they show up on their dash, but some 22-year-old posting excerpts from her story about the end of the world might be irritating.
If I started posting writing and poetry here, would you guys mind?
I promise that large pieces will be...

Read this. Go forth and do likewise. Special attention to numbers 10, 11 and 12. Also #25.

Bad Creative Writing Advice →
writeworld:
The Internet is full of bad advice for creative writers. Here’s just a small sampling of the nonsense you can find if you look for it.
“Show, don’t tell.” News flash: writing is telling. It’s a completely linguistic art form. There’s no showing involved, unless you’re writing illustrated books like Dr. Seuss or graphic novels like Neil Gaiman. The real distinction to be made here is...
