Nah fam, reverse it. Before you write your brain is chaos and you have no idea what's about to go down. Afterwards you reread your stuff and feel like a badass for writing the coolest shit ever.

Okay I'm down
There should be a fanfic writing game called the showrunners challenge where someone writes a story and partway through someone else can play things like "actor leaves after 4000 more words" or "topic now too politically sensitive due to unforeseen world events" or "lost rights to that reference"

1. "You know, most people say 'thank you' when someone saves their life."
"And most people don't throw others into danger just to play the hero."
2. "Is there a reason you're following me, or have you mistaken me for someone who cares?"
"Actually, I'm just ensuring my favorite disaster stays out of trouble."
3. "Ever heard of knocking?"
"Ever heard of locking? Seems we both have much to learn."

Now might be a good time to mention I have an active ao3 account as geetsjitters!
I will reply to any comment you post on ao3 because each and every one makes my day :)
I saw a comment by someone on reddit who said they no longer comment on any fanfiction because of the risk of it being AI and ... that just seems like such a cop out to me, not to mention incredibly cruel to authors.
Please please please do not stop commenting on all fics or interacting with authors because you are worried about things being AI. The risk is slim, and the damage you do to authors by doing this is awful.
Writers put so much effort into their fics. For people to openly admit they still read and consume these fics, but choose not to comment on anything because of the possibility of someone using AI for their writing is incredibly selfish. You're punishing authors by doing this. You're not being moral or helpful or crusading for any useful cause - you're just hurting authors.
Ironically, by doing this, you're actually more likely to cause authors to stop writing (silence does this), and people who can't write will fill the gaps left by creating AI writing - so you're making the problem worse, not helping anyone.
If you want to support authors and writers, then SUPPORT them! Reblog work and send authors asks, leave comments and kudos, and above all don't punish people with silence.

prompt #101
"How the mighty have fallen." The villain approached the bloodied hero with a victorious sneer. "I look forward to killing you."
The hero looked past the villain, grinning at the sight. "I may have fallen, but I brought something with me."
The villain froze in confusion. And then the monster descended on them.

"Permission to speak freely, my lord?"
"Of course. You can always speak your mind with me."
"Then you won't mind it when I tell you to get your head out of your ass and accept the damn quest."
"...I may have to amend my previous statement."

"Cecilia?"
I turn at the sound of my name, mildly annoyed that my ravioli versus penne debate in the pasta aisle was being put on pause.
Seeing his face instantly takes me back 200 years.
"You bastard," I say. "You never told me."
He scoffs indignantly and crosses his arms. "Me? You're the one that kept secrets."
I roll my eyes. "You're still on that."
"Well it's difficult to forget," he replies. "I'd had that pocket watch since the seventeenth century. You didn't even tell me that you broke it!"
"Please," I huff, crossing my arms. "It was basically brand new."
His face softens. "I can't believe it's really you. It's good to see you, Cece."
"It's good to see you too Teddy."
You are immortal. You didn’t realize your ex from 200 years ago was also immortal until you run into each other while grocery shopping.

I worry about how short the chapters of my most recent WIP are, but in times like these I like to remember the Maximum Ride series by James Patterson. If Jimmy can make itty bitty chapters, then by golly so can I.
Chapters: Are They Too Big?
It’s quite common when writing a novel to realize that your chapters have very different sizes. You may wonder: is this okay? Is there some standard length for a chapter? Not at all.
Chapters are actually not as important as they might seem in the finished book. They are huge bags where you put some scenes, so the reader can give himself small goals while reading your book. The scenes are the…
