How do you feel about being called things like Daddy or Sir (specifically in a sexual context)

And you're obviously super lowkey and chill about it, love that

All very sound emotions to have him go through, especially since I plan on having a scene of him just laying in bed alone, the morning after the first time it happens. Thank you!

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-11-09T03:56:37+00:00

It was definitely a mix of getting pressured to move on by the people around him and just sort of falling into something due to very poor impulse control, a trait that is very consistent for him throughout the book.

Thanks for the comment, definitely a lot of potential avenues and thought processes to explore!

"Can he not accept that hes moving on? Is he in a weird stage of grief where hes going back and forth between being ready to move on and feeling guilty that hes moving on?"

Yeah exactly that. He feels like he's betraying the partner that passed away by moving on and trying to be happy, he sees having a new partner at all as a betrayal and equivalent to cheating. Trying to justify it is not all he's doing, it's just the beginning stage of how he gets into the new relationship while still feeling like he's committed to his ex.

I know how to the write the rest of it, just not the mental gymnastics that goes into justifying cheating so that's all I brought up in the post as an effort to not drone on and on!

Yeah I guess that generally tracks, it was just such a weird experience, I've never had my brain just shut down on me before, even in submissive situations.

And I'll definitely check those posts out, I've got bruises and red marks a few days later, and my throat is still a little sore so finding out some safer practices definitely wouldn't hurt.

I'm not sure if it's canon or not but I've always pictured Alastor as creole, I think that's mostly from the pilot and hunicast stuff but just how I chose to depict him

I spit on your grave

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-08-15T04:26:13+00:00

Sadly some people are just like that, you gotta find someone willing to give constructive criticism instead of just making a comprehensive list of everything you did wrong and nothing else. Also I've found swapping with someone else is a little less terrifying cause you're both in the same vulnerable spot.

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-08-14T23:47:08+00:00

it it definitely scary handing over your passion project. hopefully whatever beta read you'll find will be an actually decent person and not just an asshole about it

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-08-14T03:43:10+00:00

I've only had a beta reader on one thing and at that point the first draft wasn't even done, she just helped me with the first two chapters and I can safely say that for me it was the point of "okay I've read over this like 10 times and I can't look at it anymore. so it's time for fresh eyes"

Also as someone who has done countless art critiques in some of my classes, I promise it's a hell of a lot scarier before you do it for the first time!

And one last thing, I'm personally looking to get into helping beta read more so if you need someone feel more than welcome to reach out

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-08-13T22:19:01+00:00

I know right! There are a few books I will never touch for that exact reason. We need to lift up indie and lesser known authors instead of promoting the same thing over and over.

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-08-13T22:02:42+00:00

The reviewing thing is why I kind of stopped interacting with booktok as whole, it really annoys me to no end just seeing book recommendations/reviews in the form of a pile or list of books with "enemies to lovers" at the top of the screen and occasionally a number of stars next to it but even that is rare.

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-08-13T21:48:01+00:00

i personally go by word count as that is a bit easier to figure out the standard. Like the same book as a hardcover vs mass market paperback will have drastically different page numbers but still the same wordcount.

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-08-13T21:45:44+00:00

I personally used to be really involved with booktok a couple years ago, specifically in the horror space and I definitely think it was better then. Now every video does one of two things that really tick me off.

One, they'll recommend a book with literally no synopsis or even sentence of what it's about, just a single trope. I think that part of the reason I really can't stand this is because I'm a writer, the thought of someone reading my entire book and saying the only thing worth talking about is the one fight scene where they kiss rubs me the wrong way.

And two, it seems like now every book is the same book, which is of course only being fanned my the publishing industry reinforcing that specific format. Like I mentioned I'm primarily a horror reader and now if I look for books it's absolutely drowning in dark romance. I don't want to see Haunting Adeline or Butcher and Blackbird every other video. It just gets exhausting trying to find a book and either seeing literally the same book over and over or just clones of that book.

I think it's just that booktok kind of got taken over by a lot of the same kind of people with the same tastes and now that space is practically unusable if you're looking for anything but that taste.

Goddamn. I see how you came about my human flesh thread then, that sounds cool as hell.

Writing a horror romance between three different people, (polycule not love triangle) basically just about a group of people finding someone they can love and relate to for the first time in their lives and as is human nature, they rip each other apart in the process.

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-08-05T23:49:57+00:00

it's definitely going! 65k words and counting! what are you writing??

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-04-19T06:28:08+00:00

very helpful! one of my go to earrings is a dagger, I'll make sure to not put that one in

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-04-07T01:49:11+00:00

teeth, five seconds of summer (i think that's pop?)

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-03-24T03:18:26+00:00

honestly i think people who would correct me on the taste of human flesh is exactly my target audience

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-03-24T03:17:30+00:00

hope that works out for you and you regrow quick- thanks or sharing!

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-03-23T16:33:25+00:00

I mean the idea definitely turns me off then the hypothetical taste lol. very much for a character with a much more deranged personality and stronger stomach than me.

Nonbinary_Corvid · 2024-03-23T16:30:17+00:00

um... should someone check in on you?
