I am a 21 year old bi female Dom. Yes, we are real. Yes we can be dominat if we are women. Most of my content is 18+ if you aren't of this age I'm sorry, just close your eyes and scroll until you find something SWF. I do have a little.

Commenting fanfiction is the easiest thing in the world once you start doing it. 

I leave a comment on every single fic I read. Sometimes when I read published books I go and leave a comment somewhere the author can find it. Granted, I literally majored in ‘leaving comments on fics’ (English Education), but once you start doing it it just becomes second nature. Now you’re gonna go to the Ozymandias school of leaving comments: 

Problem: I can’t leave kudos again.

Beginner: This is a second/third/fourth Kudos
Advanced: This is my second/third/fortieth time reading this, I still love it so much. Here are a few new things I noticed. I like the way you personally do x, y, z compared to other authors I’ve read (in this ship/genre/fandom).

Problem: I don’t know what to say :(

Beginner: Just list what you did to read this fic. “I stayed up late reading this”, “I read this on a crowded train”, “this kept me company while sick”. 
Advanced: X,Y,Z parts made me get butterflies, and I had a physical reaction to this part of the story, I squealed outloud when characters did x,y,z. I blushed at this part. I laughed out loud here. Whatever. 

Problem: I’m embarrassed to leave a comment (what if I annoy the author?)

Beginner: Short answer: you won’t EVER annoy the author (unless you’re needlessly mean) But to start, be generic, you don’t have to spill your soul in the comments section. “I liked this” “I enjoyed reading this” “nice fic”.
Advanced: This really meant a lot to me that you wrote this. This is something I feel like I’ve always wanted to read. This fic hit me in all the right places. Etc. 

Problem: I don’t know how to express myself/my experience 

Beginner: My beginners go to is to highlight a line, put that in your comment and say “i liked this” or to identify basic emotions you had while reading and comment those “this made me happy” “this part made me sad” “i almost cried” “you made me laugh”  Advanced: “Highlighted line” This line made me smile because it has to do with character development/it’s really romantic/it’s so unique/it’s moving. Sometimes I don’t highlight a line at all, I just talk about the stuff I’ve noticed were unique to the fic. “I love the way you did this particular thing with this character”.

This? This is an amazing post. This is the Captain Awkward of commenting posts—it addresses all your fears directly and gives you actionable scripts for each one.

Hey! Some of this can apply to responding to works on writeblr, too! Wonderful advice for if you’re stuck on a comment but you really want to leave one (and you should, if you can!).

if u dont acknowledge the fanfics u read, the writer won’t think anyone is actually taking the time to read their stuff, which makes our effort feel wasted and our passions feel worthless

Tell. The. Fanfic. Writers. How. You. Feel.

I will always reblog this. It’s important.

Me, as a fanfic writer, will love nothing more than for people to comment.

“May I please draw your OC?”

Reblog this message if you encourage anyone that wants to draw your OC to do so.  No need to ask for permission in advance.

Go for it.  Draw my OC.  If you want, I’ll even give you reference posts.  Go to town on it.

You are welcome to draw my OC and surprise me with the result.  Seriously.  In fact, I encourage it.  I will proudly display whatever it is you submit to me regarding my OC.  There is a chance that I will squeal about it for several days.

Even if you feel you aren’t good at whatever artistic adventure it is you do, please feel free to submit it to me.  I want to see what you have done.

NORMALIZING COMMENTING EVERY TIME YOU KUDOS BECAUSE FANFIC WRITERS CANT READ YOUR MIND TO KNOW WHAT YOUR FAVE PARTS WERE PLEASE

Even if you don’t leave specific compliments, comments are so motivating for writers!

The fact that no one leaves a comment rule.

Never related more to a tweet

Putting this on main because it was relevant recently

Writing Prompt #82

And it was with you I wished I could spend forever.

But it was with you I realized that forever is just a beautiful lie…

I’m beyond speechless at how talented and creative you all are. I love seeing things like this, because not only does it brighten my day, it inspires me as well.

"And it was with you I I wished I could spend forever," She eyed her best friend, her crush, the love of her life, tears starting to brim. Life isn't fair. Never has been. Rejection hurts like a bitch. "But it was with you I realized forever is nothing more than a beautiful, false, reality."

so in honor of scott summers dying (he’ll be fine) here’s what happens when x men “"kills”“ emma frost who will, in this case, also be fine, as dying is to x men as breathing is to the rest of us

emma as she’s dying: ororo. ororo listen to me. i have dinner reservations at that one place in paris. you have to make them two years in advance. do NOT cancel my reservation. i will be FINE. whatever happens, the reservation STAYS

scott was genuinely upset as emma was dying and he was crying over her and was like no emma dont leave me and emma, in a mocking voice, like “no emma dont leave me listen to yourself i’ll be back in six months shut up idiot”

ororo: her last words were “is jean also dead? good.” and then she died

emma’s funeral, which is just held at the hellfire club, is just all portraits of emma. especially the nudes. its nothing but nudes. it’s how she wanted to be remembered ororo reading the pre-written eulogy emma wrote for her: emma grace frost was the most kind, beautiful, charming soul on this planet.  pietro: raises hand  ororo: she wrote this pietro: lowers hand

she wanted me to tell you all she died doing something interesting, like riding an extremely expensive and rare horse, and not doing, in her words, “something stupid like saving the entire team.” which is, of course, what she did. that being said, here is the picture of the very expensive horse she wanted to show all of you, to remind everyone that she was rich, so very rich, and you are not

emma returning from the dead 7 months later strolling into the mansion and announcing I HAVE NOTES ON HOW WE CAN IMPROVE MY FUNERAL

logan: how was hell emma: boring and overrated logan: satan kicked you out didnt he emma: that’s not the point

Gotta reblog this again

Simple Tricks to Improve Writing

I get many young writers begging for writing tips. Put these five basics into play, and your story will grow in maturity right before your eyes.

  1. Destroy the Was Where logical, replace “to be” verbs with action verbs. Use the “Find” feature to seek out is, was, are, were, and other “to be” conjugated verbs. (”Whole words only” option if you’ve got it.) See if that was can be more exciting. Example: a) The sun was hot. / The sun blazed. b) His eyes were bright. / His eyes gleamed. c) There are many examples. / Examples abound.
  2. There, Here, It If your sentence begins with one of these three, watch out! My bet is they are followed by a “to be” verb. Seek these out as well, while you’re at it. Oh, you’ll find them all over the place, definitely. Sometimes they’re needed. Sometimes … no. Seeking those three “grammar expletives“ (if we want to get technical) will make your writing cleaner and mature. Example: a) There are some writers who struggle. / Some writers struggle. b) Here is something to consider. / Consider this. c) It takes time to write. / Writing takes time.
  3. Adverbs = EVIL! Adjectives = …Maybe Evil For a moment, forget what your middle school English teacher said about filling your writing with adverbs and adjectives. Adverbs are band-aids for poor verb choice. Adjectives can be strong or weak. Don’t hide weakness with flowery descriptives. Don’t feel everything must be described. Really, it doesn’t. a) Adverbs are plain evil. “She spoke loudly” can be “She shouted.” You don’t need to say “She shouted loudly.” I’ve never seen someone shout any other way. Better yet: “She bellowed, she roared, she howled.” Oooh, look at that! If you use good verbs to start, no embellishments are needed. b) Adjectives are trickier. Sometimes we really do need those descriptions. However, only go into detail on items that are important to your story. Maybe a door is blue, but if we’re never going to see that door again and it’s not blue for a damn good reason, we honestly don’t need to know its color. c) Very and Really are often added to this rule. Common advice is to eliminate “very” or “really” from writing and replace whatever it’s supporting with something better. Mark Twain said to replace “very” with “damn” so the editor cuts it out for you, but you’re smart; you can do that job yourself.
  4. Watch Out for Commonly Confused Words You know the ones. You’re/your, accept/except, advice/advise, hoard/horde, lay/lie, it’s/its, past/passed, fast/quick, less/fewer. There are lists. You probably know which ones cause trouble. I sure do! When you know that word is coming up, just take a moment to make sure you got it write … I mean right.
  5. JUST SAY IT! Most of this falls under the same umbrella: be concise! Precision writing beats florid mega-sentences-from-hell. Break the habit those middle school English teachers introduced into your writing. There are moments when lengthy paragraphs filled with description might be important, but if you can say something with fewer words, do so. Less is more.
