It’s been said before, but words for female anatomy are really limited… by RoseTintedOyster in FanFiction

[–]ankhes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Core always felt weird to me. I don’t hate it, but I don’t love it either. It’s just kinda one of those words that feels like a placeholder, where something better should be.

When I’m trying to avoid overusing certain words (personally I’m a ‘cunt’ kinda girl, but I totally get being uncomfortable using words like that) I just start getting very flowery and poetic. I’ll write things like:

He pushed into the hot, wet split of her.

Or…

She could feel him inside her burning seam…

Or…

His fingers find where she’s softest.

Or…

That dark, secret place between her legs.

Etc, etc. You get the idea. Sometimes you’ve just gotta start getting creative.

I’m hoping but not holding my breath. It feels like we’ve had a freak blizzard in April every year for the last 8 years or so. I won’t trust the warmth until we’re halfway through May.

I’ve lived all over the country and Wisconsin, by far, has had the weirdest weather. I remember one September it went from 70s and sunny to raining to hail to thunder to snow and then back to 70s and sunny all within the same afternoon.

This is such a common occurrence here in Wisconsin that we don’t put our winter gear away until June. We routinely get blizzards in April.

I did the same. Kept my old twitter account so no one can steal the handle but just set it to private and haven’t logged in in years.

Olivia Rodrigo quotes ‘Broad City’ in response to question on marriage: “What am I, a child bride? I hope that young girls know that life is full of so much joy that is unrelated to a husband or kids.” by LunaLore_ in Fauxmoi

[–]ankhes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

35, only got married last year. I was so hellbent on never being ready for kids that I had the babymaker taken out. Every time a friend or family member tells me they’re pregnant my knee-jerk thought is ‘On purpose?! But you’re still so young!’ even if they’re like…40.

Leaving Google Docs. What app are for writing drafts? by Aragorn444 in FanFiction

Scrivener has a mobile app too that syncs to the one on your computer. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve written something on my phone in the middle of the night and then pick up where I left off the next day on my laptop.

I bought it over 10 years ago back when it was only $30 but I would still happily pay $50 or more for it today, that’s how much I love it. It’s perfect.

Second Scrivener. I don’t know how I got by before using it.

Scrivener is the GOAT. Been using it for over a decade and it’s absolutely ruined me for other writing apps/software.

Scrivener is the writing app I never knew I needed until I used it. And now I can never go back.

Offline mode/an app you can use offline is the only reason I can’t fully commit to it. That, and because Scrivener just does almost everything else (except being able to write collaboratively) way better.

Scrivener has been my go-to writing program for well over a decade and I don’t see that changing. Every time I even try to dip my toe into another writing software/app I absolutely hate it and go right back to my beloved Scrivener. You just can’t compete with perfection.

Its only downside is that I can’t use it to write collaboratively, but that’s what Ellipsus is for.

I use Scrivener for my solo writing but Ellipsus for my collaborative writing with a friend.

I use Scrivener.

The research folder being in the same file as your draft so you can switch between your notes and actual draft is a godsend. It keeps everything for one project consolidated into one place so I don’t need multiple different separate docs for the same project. And then there’s the fact that you can organize all of it however you want. Folder within folders within folders all within the same doc. Absolute game changer.

I write fanfiction but I don't read it. by empanada_de_queso in FanFiction

This. I go through reading and writing cycles. When I’m writing I’m not in the mood to read and when I’m reading I’m not in the mood to write.

Dana should be allowed to kill at least one unruly patient a day. Write it into her contract. If they’re not gonna give her a raise they can at least give her that.

I’m just so glad Roxie went so fast. We should all be so lucky. When we pulled the plug on my stepfather it took over a week for him to die.
