IM GOING TO A HOZIER CONCERT

I GOT TICKETS TO GO WITH MY BROTHER IN JULY AND IM SO FUCKING EXCITED THIS IS AMAZING

Hi everyone!! My name is Artemis, I'm an ambitious, queer, aspiring writer, and I've got a heroic epic fantasy series in the works that is going to 100% be my magnum opus. I'm planning for this blog to be a mix of random personal stuff about my life, writing things (like worldbuilding stuff and relatable writer's posts), and reblogs that will also probably be entirely random, but we'll see.

I like writing (obviously), reading, playing D&D, playing video games (particulary Assassin's Creed, The Legend of Zelda, and RDR2), shopping at independent, unique stores (bookstores!!), and watching shows such as Game of Thrones, Arcane, and Heartstopper.

Anyways, follow me if you wanna eventually read my book and get attached to my epic, D&D-style, insanely queer characters that I daydream too much about, and feel free to DM me at any time if you want to know more about me, my books, or just want to chat about your latest hyperfixation; I love chatting!

Farewell and fast travels, adventurer.

"do you want women competing against trans athletes" yes? I also want women competing against male athletes. and competing alongside them. because segregating sports by gender is extremely shitty actually?

Say what you will about David Bowie, but I don't think I've ever heard anyone besides him describe Bob Dylan's voice quite as perfectly as "a voice like sand and glue."

My spotify wrapped has only confirmed that I am gayer and more depressed than I already knew I was. Great.

"Ice, is my character a stereotype?Is my story stereotypical?"

Lesson 6: "Let's Have a Talk, First"- Stereotypes, pt 1

Lesson 6: "Is He the Threat (Or Are You?)"- Stereotypes, pt 3

Application Example: How to spot a Stereotype: An Example

Before you ask me this, I need you to read every lesson and click and search through every single link!

There are as many ways to accidentally (or purposely!) scribble up a stereotype as there are stories to tell. It takes our entire lives to learn and keep up with the ways media (fiction and nonfiction) will find ways to depict us negatively in a narrative. Why would it be any easier for you? 😅

If you actually want to develop the skill to see what and how stereotypes manifest in your media, you have to study it. It will take you time! You will have to read, and then you will have to apply what you've read! That's part of media analysis and comprehension! Because at the end of the day, I could present you with a surface level, lovely story containing a stereotypical narrative, but if you didn't know what to look for and why, you wouldn't see it.

And again, I will always tell you to engage with Black stories. Why do you want to put me in your stories, but you don't want to engage with anything created by me? Why do you want to know how to write my voice, but you're not willing to read anything spoken by my voice? How else do you plan on figuring that out? What is your intention, here? Let's ask ourselves these questions!
