Day Seventy-Seven

Day fifty-two (52/100)

of @the-wip-project‘s #100daysofwriting challenge.

Q52: Pick an idea and write a short "shopping list" of what will happen in the story.

A52: I did this but did not feel like sharing with you. Hope your ideas and shopping list are delicious!

Thinkin about how as kids parents told us to clean our rooms without having ever shown us how to themselves, taught us any organizational skills, spatial management, or any other knowledge necessary to know how to efficiently tackle a mess without getting overwhelmed and then got exasperated when we as ten year olds didn’t just……figure it out

The main character in my current wip has two motivations, the one they know about and the other they really need to do: rescue their friends from bad things and not settle for a job they hate so much they numb themselves with booze and other vices.

Day sixty-six (66/100)

of @the-wip-project‘s challenge!

Q66: What's the thing that you find super annoying about writing?

A66: Here are the top things that annoy me: 1. That my writing isn’t always able to capture what was/ is in my mind’s eye. 2. That the best ideas and wording often come to me when I’m driving and can’t pull over to write them down. When I do try to write them down, the words on the page never seem as good as how I imagined it in my head. 3. Being interrupted by life. 4. Pain in my hands after writing too much.

moleskine = bad

i’m mentally ill too but fucking listen to me here. you need to take responsibility for your actions regardless of whether or not they’re a product of your mental illness. you don’t get to manipulate, gaslight, take advantage of, or straight up abuse people because you’re mentally ill! you don’t! what the fuck! why are some of you still thinking it’s okay to say things like “manipulation is okay because i have _____ and need attention from my significant other” oh my god. Don’t fucking do that

Beautiful

A song from Lexa to Clarke!

I haven’t slept at night, I should have stayed to fight, Stayed with you. I know you’re not the enemy You seen the good that’s left in me I should have stayed with you.   You said we deserve better than this, I guess we do. But how can the leader of the ground, Love the leader of the sky crew.   May We Meet Again, When I can trust my heart and not my brain, Be safe and rescue your friends, Then maybe we can meet again.   So if you go to the Capitol, Maybe we can forget it all, And you’ll stay with me. We won’t have to be warriors, We can let down our barriors,   And you can stay with me.   You said we deserve better than this I guess we do, But how can the leader of the ground Love the leader of the sky crew.   May We Meet Again, When I can trust my heart and not my brain, Be safe and rescue your friends, And may we meet again. May we meet again.

Beautiful image and great story by @aphrodites-law

do you think Lexa ever wore those skull masks that other Trikru warriors seemed to favor? who’s skull would it be? Full illustration here.

The network group gave me the hostname I asked for. Hopefully it won’t kill any of my programs ...
