"Kill your darlings" means "if something is holding you back, get rid of it, even if it sounds pretty."
That's it! That's all it means! It means if you're stuck and stalled out on your story and you could fix the whole block by removing something but you're avoiding removing that thing because it's good, you remove that thing. That's the darling.
It does NOT mean
That you have to get rid of your self-indulgent writing
That you should delete something just because you like it (?wtf?)
That you need to kill off characters (??? what)
That you have to pare your story down to the absolute bare bones
That you have to delete anything whatsoever if you don't want to
The POINT is that you STOP FEELING GUILTY for throwing out good writing that isn't SERVING THE STORY.
The POINT is that you don't get so HUNG UP on the details that you lose sight of the BIG PICTURE.
I call upon the fan fic writing gods to bless you with the perseverance to finish one of your unfinished drafts.
May your fingers dance along the letters upon your device with ease, may the devil of distraction stay far from you, and may your work not need much editing.
I pass this blessing upon every fan fic writer out there.
unsung benefit i think a lot of ppl are sleeping on with using the public library is that i think its a great replacement for the dopamine hit some ppl get from online shopping. it kind of fills that niche of reserving something that you then get to anticipate the arrival of and enjoy when it arrives, but without like, the waste and the money.
I mean. Salaì wants everyone to be fair. He's willing to smooch anyone. But it's going to get sexual.
If you just want to hang out in a library and vibe Elyas wouldn't mind having you around. He will start using big words tho and try to have an educated conversation with you about some random topic he just learned about.
Gorgeous gorgeous woman who has gone though a divorce and got everything and kind of doesn’t know what to do with herself anymore because she’s run out of drama but will never ever run out of money
Missing my cats……………. Tell Kiki I love her very very much
Kǎi-ěr is not only the youngest physician in the imperial court, but also the best one they have to offer. However, he is not too tightly bind by royal ties and instead, occasionally travels the whole country to treat the ill in need and to practice medicine. People who had received his care refer to him as the “Medicine Buddha”. Unbeknownst to them, Kǎi-ěr is an alcoholic who always carries around a big flagon of booze and is often seen in an endless state of hangover.
