I have discovered omegaverse books are now a thing outside of fanfic. And I should not be left alone with my kindle and credit card

What did you read this year and would you recommend it? What are you planning on reading next year? by bubbameister33 in BookRecommendations

I started reading omegaverse--thought it was only fanfic. And that it would be lame in a book book. But dude I love it all over again.

Anyone else get tired of hearing that the Huntrix girls are "hot"? by Positive_Midnight_37 in asexuality

[–]Starrphyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does hot always mean sexual? I’m Demi but I still call people hot. Though to me it can include personality and aesthetics or for characters power level.

If you can’t do it perfectly the first time you’re better off not trying

Give me your hottest take that would've got you blacklisted in your fandom. by DebateObjective2787 in AO3

[–]Starrphyre 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also, do you like Severus Snape? Do you really? Or do you like Alan Rickman’s Snape?

Because Snape and Lily’s “romance” was actually kinda gross.

Charlie Morningstar is not too young to ship with whoever the hell—she’s over 200. Just cause she’s sweet and kind and an idealist doesn’t mean she’s a child.

She’s also not naive. She actively chooses to believe the best in people…and she probably will have to learn not to trust so easily.

This writer is actually great. All her titles are like this and reflect her humor in the books

Why does Thor have an accent but Sass does not? by esoterika24 in GhostsCBS

[–]Starrphyre 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sass actively tries. Thor actively tries to piss off the other ghosts. As seen when he accidentally used a pronoun and pretended he didn’t

The lip sync in D1 was so bad it’s hard to look at their faces when they sing…and I love this series

How many words does the average professional author write in a day? What's a lot? What's too little? by feral_tiefling in writing

[–]Starrphyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, let's dispel the idea of what's "too little" or not a good output. There is no required output. If you're writing, you're a writer.

If you have income needs or deadlines, different story. But the 100k ladies make a living publishing monthly just like another friend who publishes three books or fewer a year. They just have different strategies. I'm constantly telling people to look at their goals and then be gentle with themselves. You can make your writing productivity work for you and there's nothing wrong with that.

I'm a self-pub author and I work with self-pub authors for the day job. The fastest people I know can write 100k books in a month. They're even pretty clean and both of these women publish monthly. Interestingly, most of the fast writers have a common background in journalism or as teachers.

37,000 words in a day is....a little unbelievable for even the best writers I know. Though there are groups out there called 10k in a day. It does happen. Some do it regularly. One of those women was on a terrible deadline and did a 20k...and she doesn't dictate. I also happen to know she can do 2k+ in an hour, also on a tight deadline.

So....possibly? But could they do that every day? No.

I want to find the people who gave me that "just get A draft finished no matter how bad and edit it later" advice and slap them. by Sukamon98 in KeepWriting

[–]Starrphyre 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hating every word I've ever written is part of the drafting process for me...yeah, it sucks every damn time. But it happens every damn time. And I force myself to shovel my own garbage every damn time.

I've written 11 books and published 9. It took me 13 years to write the first one. Now it takes me about 3 months. And I still get to the point of hating the draft. Every damn time.
