i hate when ppl act like the only reason to not like a "sad" ending is because you can't take it or whatever. personally as a tragedy enjoyer, i hate a poorly written ending. i hate an ending that is just kind of a bummer. i hate an ending that feels mean-spirited to the audience. i hate an ending that's redundant. i love a sad ending that is thematically consistent, poignant, and bespoke to the rest of its narrative.

Reblog if you’re 30 or older
This is an experiment to see if there really are as few of us as people think.You can also use this to freak out your followers who think you’re 25 or something. Yay!

Funniest thing in the whole wide world is opening a completed fic and seeing the author’s note for the first chapter say something like “unlike my other fics, this will be a shorter one! Expect it to be complete within three months or so” and then you look at the stats and the fic is 100k+ words and took two years to finish

I feel guilty wanting people to comment.I feel like if my work was good enough, they would :(
This is definitely a common feeling amongst authors, and I think part of it stems from our cultural view of artists/creators.
We often hear writers say things like “I just had to write this” or “the characters were screaming at me” and that gives off the impression that writing is going to happen no matter what. Writers have to write. Artists have to draw. If creative people can’t let their creativity out, they go a bit nuts.
The dissonant part of this is that, while creative people do have an innate drive for creation, they don’t have an innate drive to share that creativity. Needing to make something and needing to share it are two different things, serving two different purposes. Creating the work satisfies a part of you that has a story to tell or a vision to make real. Sharing that work is done in the hopes of satisfying a need for making a connection with people about that work.
Wanting people to comment is a natural part of sharing your work with them, and nothing for you to feel guilty about.
What readers don’t understand is that desire for a connection to them. For them, the connection is made by reading your work. From their perspective, you have made a connection. The problem is, from your perspective nothing has happened. You’ve posted your work and received nothing in response. It’s like walking up to someone with a big smile on your face and saying, “Hi! How’s it going?” and having them just stand there with no change in facial expression or body language, saying absolutely nothing. The connection only went one way.
There are lots of reasons why people don’t comment on artistic works, and only 1 of them is not liking the work itself.
You aren’t being needy, you’re being human.

Anyone else totally bewildered by their Spotify Unwrapped? I know I listen to some random stuff while writing but honestly don't remember half of these songs/artists. How can one of my top artists be the Moana composer???
#spotify unwrapped#think it's because i tend to replay songs before they've completely ended to avoid the ads#my top song only had 31 listens#I listened to just one song at least 50 times yesterday alone
