SIIIIIGHH, I wish there was enough damn Nate’s in the world for all of us. D;

LOOL, WOW NATE.

You have the power. Post pictures of your favorite celebrity, band, TV show, fictional character, STILES STILINSKI; your toes, pets, FOOD. Then put it on your story. (: LOL, I’m just kidding, but I have absolutely noooo clue. I don’t snapchat often, I only snapchat-stalk our boys. Ask your friend what’d she like for you to snap and who’d she like to send it off too? Or you can do what I said and take pictures of your toes, hehehe.

WAAAH, that’s so great to hear! I’d be honored to give a fellow soon-to-be Tumblr writer some advice. (: Just keep in mind that these are only my opinions and you don’t have to follow anything you don’t like, haha.

So I know how nerve-wracking it could be to start writing on a blog because then your work will officially out there for anyone to see, but that’s okay! We’ve got a pretty great community here.

Now, don’t worry about the amount of notes you get or the number of followers you have, especially not right now in the beginning stage of writing. You’ll have some good days, you’ll have some bad days, but no matter what, don’t let anything discourage you from writing on. It’s already pretty accomplishing to have a story out anyway. However, if you do want your work to get noticed by people who you think would like it, make sure you hashtag your work with relevant hashtags that relate to what you’re writing about. It’s sort of like a nice opportunity to make your way into the writing world, like you’re popping out of a door and saying, “H-hey, hi, guys! I got a story I’d like for you all to read. (:” Then as time goes on, it’ll be more like, “I GOT ANOTHER ONE FOR Y’ALL!”

Grammar and punctuation are very important and makes a difference in how a sentence is read. Punctuation, for example:“Wait why are you saying that Ben could have it I already told you”“Wait, why are you saying that? Ben could have it, I already told you.” That wasn’t the best example, but hopefully you get what I mean. However, we’re all human and we’re bound to make some mistakes in most of what we publish. Oh, but if English isn’t your first language and that’s the language you want to write in, just do the best you can!! English can be difficult, so props to you for even going out of your way to write it. You can also ask someone else to read your work before you publish also, if you like.

Ask for feedback and take into consideration on what people say, but ultimately go what you think is best for your stories, whether that means taking their advice or doing it your own way. Writing styles vary.

Make a master list and archive them into one post. That way, you and the readers can easily navigate through your work as the list grows. Plus, people tend to ask if you have a master list so they can read more of your work, which I find is a nice compliment. :D

Distribute and space off the layout in appropriate scenes so you’re not left with this humongous chunk of writing that contains 300 lines, LOL. For instance, when you have a conversation between two people, skip a line when the convo switches off to the other person. Just in case I’m not describing it right, use a book as a reference and see the points in where they skip a line.

If there’s anything you’d like the readers to know before or after they read a story, write a little A/N, or author’s note, at the end or the top of your post. If you’re writing anything about abuse or self-harm or something scary as that, write TRIGGER WARNINGat the very top. You can write about those topics, but I really hope you don’t romanticize them.

You’re going to have tons of drafts, so write them all on a Word document first if it helps you get your mind going or on paper. Then, when you feel like a story is finished, copy and paste it onto here and publish the finished work!

Well, that’s all I could think of at the moment, but like I said, these are just my opinions. Every writing style is different, babe. Just take your time and don’t rush. Writing on here is supposed to be fun, so enjoy it. (:

Oh, no. ): Don't worry, he's still alive and kickin'! ☺️

👆👆👆 Same!!

Oh, shoot, I totally forgot about that photo, I am so sorry!!! I’ll post it tomorrow since my phone isn’t with my right now, is that alright? :D

What I did was try to flip the photo, LOL, but I still couldn’t get it.
