Don’t mind me I’m just thinking about how Fingolfin was struck down by Morgoth three times but got back up three times and managed to cripple Morgoth when no one else could and died a hero; and how Boromir was struck by arrows three times but got back up three times and managed to save Merry and Pippin and kill hundreds of Orcs and redeem himself after he was tempted by evil and died a hero.

someone I follow on the bird app just announced they're starting a very exclusive private fic server because they and a bunch of other people want to talk about how much they love the fics they're reading, and as an author can I just say that a really great place to talk about a fic you love is in the comments for that fic

I understand that people are trying to create safe spaces, but as the number of comments that I get on my fics dwindles with each passing year, knowing these spaces exist where my fics are being discussed, places that I am excluded from, makes me want to write fic LESS

I mean I guess who cares, right, because if I stop writing, there's 10,000 other people that will continue...but if you participate in a fic "book club" server and you say nice things there about a fic you loved, maybe copy and paste that into a comment on AO3?

the only thing fanfic writers are asking for in return for hours of hard work is attention. please don't rob us of the one thing that we hope for when we hit "post"

Office shenanigans - Fingon x f!reader (NSFW)

Minors proceed at your own risk.

After some consideration, you decide to indulge in one of Fingon's newly discovered fantasies.

A/N: soooo, yeah. Have some finno smut, that’s rly all I have to say.

You watched FindekΓ‘no fondly as he stood on the other side of the room, next to his father and grandfather, talking in his usual animated way and drawing laughter even from people not directly involved in the conversation. His open-minded personality and ability to strike up friendly conversation with just about anyone (naturally, that was exactly how you had first met him) were some of the things that had drawn you to him initially and even after being with him for some time now, you never tired of watching him in his element.

I AM GOING TO BE THINKING ABOUT THIS ALL DAY FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK AND MONTH AND YEAR

Thank you for this πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ«ΆπŸ«ΆπŸ«Ά

Shit to edit OUT of the Novel

When editing a novel, it's essential to be ruthless in cutting out anything that doesn't serve the story or enhance the reader's experience.

  • Excessive Exposition, Cut lengthy explanations or info dumps that slow down the pacing or feel unnatural in the narrative flow. Show, don't tell whenever possible.
  • Redundant Scenes, Remove scenes that repeat information or don't advance the plot, characters, or themes in a meaningful way.
  • Unnecessary Characters, Streamline your cast by removing minor characters who don't contribute significantly to the story's development or conflict resolution.
  • Overused ClichΓ©s, Eliminate clichΓ©d phrases, descriptions, or plot devices that feel tired or predictable. Aim for fresh and original storytelling.
  • Weak Dialogue, Trim dialogue that doesn't reveal character insights, move the plot forward, or contribute to the story's atmosphere or tension.
  • Verbose Descriptions, Pare down lengthy descriptions of settings, characters, or actions that don't add depth or relevance to the scene.
  • Unfocused Subplots. Cut subplots that distract from the main storyline or fail to connect thematically or emotionally with the central narrative.
  • Unresolved Threads, Tie up loose ends and resolve unanswered questions to provide a satisfying conclusion for readers.
  • Telling Instead of Showing, Replace telling passages with scenes that allow readers to experience the story through action, dialogue, and sensory details.
  • Inconsistent Tone or Voice, Ensure consistency in the narrative voice and tone throughout the novel, removing any passages that feel out of place or jarring.
  • Irrelevant Backstory, Limit backstory to what's essential for understanding character motivations or plot developments, cutting unnecessary details or flashbacks.
  • Extraneous Details, Trim unnecessary details or digressions that don't contribute to the story's emotional resonance or thematic depth.
  • Unrealistic Dialogue Tags, Replace overly embellished dialogue tags (e.g., "he exclaimed," "she pontificated") with simple, clear attributions (e.g., "he said," "she asked") to maintain clarity and flow.
  • Overly Padded Scenes, Condense scenes that drag on without adding significant value to the narrative, maintaining a tight focus on key story beats.
  • Inconsistent Characterization, Ensure characters' actions, dialogue, and motivations remain consistent throughout the novel, removing any instances of behavior that feel out of character or forced.

When it became clear at last that MΓ­riel would never of her own will return to life in the body within any span of time that could give him hope, FinwΓ«'s sorrow became embittered. He forsook his long vigils by her sleeping body and sought to take up his own life again; but he wandered far and wide in loneliness and found no joy in anything that he did. - The Peoples of Middle-Earth, "The Shibboleth of FΓ«anor"
