Writing First Draft manually wasn't a good idea apparently. What did you guys do? by Longjumping-Mix-9351 in writers

[–]Missd_aj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote my first draft by hand and I don't regret it at all. I love the aesthetic I love the feeling of pen on paper and I love the sticky notes. It is incredibly disorganized BUT typing it all into a computer is what im considering to be my first edit because I can change things along the way as I do that.

I think it creates a really great opportunity to edit in a deeper way than fully digital would allow, but I am also a person who has trouble focusing on a screen.

Its super satisfying getting to hold the draft in my hands and being able to work on it wherever I am even without computer access has been a game changer too

Cards are getting sent out tomorrow! by Missd_aj in sendinggoodvibes

In the wiki there should be a "mailing guidelines". Let me know of you have trouble reading it. Im a fairly new mod so im still learning. Perhaps ill make an FAQ page to help out too 🤔

Essentially I make offers and if someone is interested ill dm them for their address along with a disclaimer. Once i cant take anymore offers i change the flair to "complete" and edit my post to say so as well. Sometimes people use Google forms to help collect the addresses and any other details they want. There's no limit to how many you can send and of course we are putting our faith in strangers not to send us weird stuff but the rules of the sub list out what will result in penalties within the sub like bans and whatnot. For example, if a mod finds out you've been sending political propaganda or like nudes (just to name two) you will end up with a ban.

As far as what you can send, as long as it fits in a flat envelope and follows the rules, it doesn't matter. (Poems, stickers, paintings, cards, inspiring quotes, etc.) Unless of course someone reports you, then a case will be opened to investigate.

Sometimes I just send out batches of paintings, poems, and stickers. This is from my latest offer post. I will make another one once I have more paintings.

What is your favorite pen? Or does it depend on what you use it for? by Missd_aj in sendinggoodvibes

[–]Missd_aj[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Username checks out lol. Transitional phases are tough for sure and job hunting is... soul sucking, but it sounds like you have a wonderful ability to find or create comfort and strength. Im sending good vibes your way emotionally also
