Internet dipshit, full time complainer, not to be taken seriously. If I'm on here I'm probably procrastinating.

This place will be an ungodly disorganized mashup of writing and Wheel of Time

i know i should've edited this first (im aware the first paragraph makes no sense, for the biggest issue) but i didn't

beanies wip snip for the word high: Genevieve sunk deep into the tub, until nothing existed of Ophelia but her shoulder and a face, burning with fury. "Sorry." "Are you?" Ophelia snapped. She pulled her hair over one shoulder, and water - Urine. Sweat. Vomit. - dampened the ends, stripping it of its former sheen. Strands tickled Genevieve's kneecap, sending shudders up her thighs. "If you want me to be." The cloth went back in the water, now high enough to fully submerge Genevieve's outstretched legs. Ophelia, leaning inches away, began wiping between Genevieve's thighs, just enough to tickle.

not thrilled about this but whatever

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip for the word blanket, reading: A bitter wind rushed into the car when Mattias stepped out. After leaning the drivers’ seat forward to get into the back, he flipped through the keychain, stealing the odd glimpse back toward the cabin. Genevieve pulled her blanket tighter. “You’ve been here before.” “Once, as a kid,” he admitted, to her surprise. “Maddoc needed to get out of the city a few days.” Having apparently found the right key, he plucked it free. “Grabbed me at school during lunch, and Arin decided he was coming, too.”

unedited first draft snip again today sorry all im lazy

#wipsnips
Take care of it. Just like how the Family always took care of its problems. “So you. Hills. The Soldets. Fuck, Matt, have you–“ “Family protects each other.” When Mattias nodded, a thin line, from his chin, through his lip, toward his nose glistened. Fifteen years, he would’ve had to forget the scar. The torn flesh. The howl. The stitches he would’ve gotten, and gods knew how many more he’d added over the years. But that scar? That belonged to a stupid kid that died their last fall together. “It was an accident,” Arin whispered, his body, finally, having remembered the freezing air.

found one

later in the comment they said that omni is the only way to get thoughts in third and i have questions
Well, there is third person limited, where you don't. All thoughts are inferred by actions, like you are following one person with cameras and microphones.

preach it

this post was like 30% prompted by remembering the time someone deadass told me "free indirect in third feels wrong" and someone in the chat agreed

like motherfuckers are you dumb
Free indirect speech is the literary technique of writing a character's first-person thoughts in the voice of the third-person narrator

gonna have to be from the novella today 🤷‍♀️

even though specifically the part about "control" is getting cut from this monologue lmao

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip for the word control, reading: “And then… and then when Dad died, well…” Arin paused. “Fuck. You’re well aware why I missed that shit, so don’t you fucking dare tell me I’m not the reason Ophi had to go through that alone. Again. Because I’m the fuckup of the family, the one who just… can’t control myself no matter how much I try, who keeps going to prison for stupid, stupid shit, and I’m the reason everyone Ophi’s ever loved has died and nobody’s been there for her and it’s gonna—”

redacting as if anyones actually ever going to read this / cares lmao

feel free to talk shit behind my back about how this is an edited snip and still absolute shit. three times, by the way. three fucking times because i kept fucking up and i still fucked it up probably

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip, reading: Arin overturned the urn, spilling [REDACTED’s] ashes among dust, rock, and bone. He kicked it around, until he could no longer tell what was [REDACTED], what was [REDACTED], and what was someone’s long-dead unloved grandma. It took five good smashes against the shelves and twice as many profanities, cursing the dead bastard who insisted on remaining intact, before the ceramic shattered — without warning, slicing two of his fingers. He hissed on instinct, though he, burning with anger and numb from winter, didn’t feel a thing. The bleeding, he tried to slow with the sleeve of his sweater, red quickly seeping into white wool.

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip for the word full, reading: One thud. Another. Genevieve spat into the sink. The inside of her cheek stung. Raw. Pink saliva clung to white ceramic, inching its way too slowly toward the drain. Downstairs, a closet door closed. It would have been the one with the broom. The mop. The chemicals. Nothing in this house could scrub away the full extent of her sin.

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip for the word pipe, reading: No - he'd been careful. He had. Right down to the last blonde curl. But that neck, that shredded windpipe. The fire he'd known wouldn't have a chance to burn so hot.

Design -> Plan (my one "design" is a spoiler and I'm also too embarrassed of that bit anyway) (I guess I should be embarrassed of this bit too)

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip for the word design, switched to "plan" reading: “Don’t look at me like that.” Genevieve kicked away the corner of the blanket that had remained on the couch. “Remember last time?” “This isn’t like last time.” Toni leaned forward, and she twisted away. When she hid her arms as much as she could, he touched her boot, instead. “This was murder. Planned, carried out murder. Are you on a mission to get yourself killed?” His thumb pressed her toes through the leather of her shoes – and deeper, when she tensed. “I could argue confession, cooperation in your favour, provided–”

It's gonna have to be "four" today because I only have fourth once across the novel & novella and it's not good

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip for the word fourth, reading: “Are you ready to talk about it today?” Toni asked, closing his binder. Genevieve squeezed her dress until her nails pinched her palms through the fabric. “I’ve said my piece.” Four times with him, twice to the police officers at the station, and half of once before a judge before Toni put her to a stop. Genevieve was a murderer. And everyone around her insisted on complicating the situation with nuance.

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip for the word empty, reading: Respite, he found at last in the kitchen, in air slightly more clean, with just a small scattering of empty liquor bottles, nary a single pipe or speck of powder to be found. Nobody but himself. He sunk into the counter and opened the window, just a crack, and welcomed the chills down his skin, underneath the dark suit he’d donned when he’d still intended to watch his father die.

ok, to explain my "i'm paralyzed by writing so i can't anymore" issue

i was cleaning my camera roll and found this from forever ago

if i wrote this i would highlight that SO FAST with "no fucking shit, this is obvious, show don't tell, make this dialogue, we KNOW he cares for cersei"
a photo of a website with writing advice reading: Let's take a look at an example of a scene from A Storm of Swords by George R. R. Martin. This scene is from Jamie Lannister's point of view, and he has just been taken (along with Brienne of Tarth) by Vargo Hoat (who also just cut off Jamie's hand): "The wench had the right of it. He could not die. Cersei was waiting for him. She would have need of him. And Tyrion, his little brother who loved him for a lie. And his enemies were waiting too; the Young Wolf who had beaten him in the Whispering Wood and killed his men around him, Edmure Tully who had kept him in darkness and chains, these Brave Companions. When morning came, he made himself eat. They fed him a mush of oats, horse food, but he forced down every spoon. He ate again at evenfall, and the next day. Live, he told himself harshly, when the mush was like to gag him, live for Cersei, live for Tyrion. Live for vengeance. A Lannister always pays his debts. His missing hand throbbed and burned and stank. When I reach King's Landing I'll have a new hand forged, a golden hand, and one day I use it to rip out Vargo Hoat's throat." In this example, you can see that, although bound, abused, and missing a hand, Jamie is anything but internally passive. In this bit of text, he's remembering what's important and plotting out his next steps Internally, he is active.

Behold: the only line in my WIP I like

#wipsnips
beanies wip snip for the word monster, reading: "Who in her position would cry? None but a monster would commit a vile deed and render herself the victim. Weak legs threw her to the floor. Thick snot packed her nose and trickled down her face. Spit pooled in her mouth. Heavy arms refused to budge and wipe away the filth. One hand hung limp at her side. The other channelled all her rage into sweat-drenched fingers that still white-knuckled the fire iron."

I survived my third watch of #TheWheelOfTime 2x8 and realized my most used show meme has never made it on here

Debate me at your own peril
milhouse from the simpsons meme, asking "remember the time rand's sword had a heron on the hilt and you lied to me and said there was never a heron on the hilt? but why was it in the turak scene, rafe? why was it in the turak scene?"

Wheel of Time season 1 is by far and away better than season 2

Hand to god I fully believe if WoT S1 was remastered with S2's colour grading and visual effects, that wouldn't even be a controversial opinion

S1 at least has a vision and sticks with it. It's character driven. It's consistent.

He is definitely over-correcting for forgetting about Selene because his latest theory is that Berelain is Lanfear

Leaked image of #TheWheelOfTime season 4 episode 1
an edited meme of norm macdonald's coverage of the OJ simpson trial from saturday night live, in which perrin is photoshopped over OJ the meme reads "Perrin Aybara's lawyers say they don't want the colleagues of Geofram Bornhald in the courtroom during the trial. They're afraid the presence of the other whitecloaks will just remind Perrin of how much more killing he still has to do."
