writing is so much more fun when you realise there’s literally no rules and you can do whatever you want

this is getting notes and i didn’t expect that so i’m just gonna reiterate the point i made in the tags really quick: this is about writing craft - you can write in whatever funky structure you like, invent a quirky pov, have as many flashbacks as you want, write the cheesiest romance you want, you can use cliches and you don’t have to follow every trope. this is about how you can completely pants and discovery write a story or you can write a 10k+ word outline. write fanfiction. write 50 coffee shop stories. write a fantasy world. write as a way to vent your emotions or as a way to distract yourself from them. your writing is yours

“there’s literally no rules and you can do whatever you want” does not apply to bigotry. it doesn’t mean “freedom of speech” or whatever bullshit people say to justify a hurtful story. it also doesn’t mean that people can’t call you out if you write something bigoted - even if you didn’t mean any harm. “there are no real rules to writing” does not justify harmful writing

There's this one customer who comes into the store pretty regularly, a very short and muscle-y and dressed very punk, who speaks like the most smooth southern gentleman you ever did see, and I instantly feel better everytime I talk to them.

They invariably ask me to get something down off a top shelf for them, and it's always like, "Pardon me, but would you kindly get me that box of lasagna there? See, my mama wouldn't let me grow higher than this, so I have to find some good hearted folks to let me borrow their height for a mo'ent. Ah, thank ya, thank ya kindly." I love them.

I'm glad this beautiful soul is getting the appreciation they deserve.

my brother just asked me "why do you like music?" and let me tell you there is absolutely no way to respond to that without sounding severely fucked up and he knew it. he fucking got me.

update: i said "i like the noises and sounds" and he turned to look at me and was like "you're still on tumblr aren't you". devastating diagnosis.
