nothing funnier to me than when AI does math wrong. like I get why it happens, it's a language model that's treating the numbers you feed it as words rather than integers and then giving you an answer based on how those words typically appear in a block of text instead of actually performing a calculation. but the one thing computers are genuinely incredible at. you fucked up a perfectly good calculator is what you did, look at it it's got hallucinations
sorry boss can't come in today i was on my way to work and then a gentle spring breeze kissed my cheek and reminded me it is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in this broken world
One of the greatest lies a writer can tell themselves is that they will remember the idea that they came up with while they were half asleep, so they don’t need to write it down right away.
sexual activity
how you dress
stealing my food
stealing my lemons
my cat likes you more than me
You guys, can I just... Lana Del Ray???
That heading sounds like the title of a She-Ra episode or a shitty breakup poem title, but... you guys.
She almost loved him.
It was almost enough.
They almost survived.
He almost died.
I almost gave up.

It is important for you to understand how your fantasy world runs. It would make things a whole lot easier to write a novel if you understand how things work in this world. I would recommend planning out some information before you start your writing journey. I have briefly discussed some other helpful tips for writing a fantasy book before too! 1. Think about the currency/currencies in your world, do you want it to use coins or something different? Just like the world we live in, you cannot travel to a place that doesn't need some aspect of currency, whether it is dollars, euros or something else. A very simple idea could be using buttons for a currency.
2. What are the jobs and their purposes? How respected are they in society?
3. This links to number 2, but what is the agriculture and crop growing like? How needed are the farmers? Do plants grow via magic, photosynthesis or something else?
4. How does the world work through trading, communication, travel and combat?
5. How big are the villages, cities and locations in your world?
6. Who are the Gods/deities in your world and how did they create the world. Are there any in particular who are of importance? Why, why not?
7. What could be some of the stories in your world that have been told and passed down for generations? Are they myths, truths or does no one know?
8. What is the education system like?
9. Plan your magic system! For example, it could be generated through energy, a magic crystal, a gift from a God, who may have gifted something to the living beings in order to help them exist in some way.
10. Think about the names of your locations, if needed I can do a separate post dedicated to naming a place.
11. Impacts of characters. Why is your character good for the world/bad for the world? Are they even necessary to the plot, if not, think about if they even need to be written about.
12. How is their food prepared and made?
13. What are the politics like through voting systems and laws etc? Who are the people in charge?
Just your average queer writer, obsessed with a myriad of random BS that won't give me anything but amusement and happiness in life. 19, Minors please DNI.
