Asking for directions

Oh… - zooms in - Ohh…

That puts a whole different spin on it. It’s amazing either way, but now I need a moment.

Hi, OP. Your art inspired me to write a story; I hope you enjoy it.

The Earth rises in pieces over the curve of the moon.

So the astronaut unfurls their map -- because there's always a map, and always a plan, preflight checklists and safety protocols, each variable lovingly, fearfully calculated. The paper makes no sound. There's only white-noise in their suit, like a sigh escaping. Dust that will never move again settles at their boots.

It’s cold. So very cold, and lonely.

The astronaut traces a gloved finger along a trajectory they do not recognize. Up, past inky orbits and soft, graphite nebulae, spirals and columns and the infinite black. They look away. Past the cyan mosaic of home, and into the void.

There stands the angel. 

“im just a writer” no you’re not just a writer, you and your words mean a lot for some people. <3

Hey. Why isn’t the moon landing a national holiday in the US. Isn’t that fucked up? Does anyone else think that’s absurd?

It was a huge milestone of scientific and technological advancement. (Plus, at the time, politically significant). Humanity went to space! We set foot on a celestial body that was not earth for the first time in human history! That’s a big deal! I’ve never thought about it before but now that I have, it’s ridiculous to me that that’s not part of our everyday lives and the public consciousness anymore. Why don’t we have a public holiday and a family barbecue about it. Why have I never seen the original broadcast of the moon landing? It should be all over the news every year!

It’s July 20th. That’s the day of the moon landing. Next year is going to be the 54th anniversary. I’m ordering astronaut shaped cookie cutters on Etsy and I’m going to have a goddamn potluck. You’re all invited.

Hey. Hey. Tumblr. Ides of March ppl. We can do this

MOON LANDING DAY IS THURSDAY!

HAPPY MOON DAY EVERYONE!!! 🌙

I just heard the mighty bellow of a beast outside. Great. Just what I need.

You are allowed to like your own writing. You wrote it, it's tailored to yourself, you should enjoy it. You took plain words and put them in a beautiful order to create an awesome story. Beat that imposter syndrome and be proud.

This isnt a joke my favorite piece of writing advice that I’ve ever seen is someone that said if you were stuck with a fic and couldn’t figure out why or what was wrong, your problem is actually usually about ten sentences back. Maybe there was something wonky about the tone or the dialogue or you added something that didn’t fit but it’s usually ten sentences back. And every single time I get stuck in a fic I count back ten sentences and it’s always fucking there

If you write yourself into a corner, back out of the corner.

Receiving feedback on your writing:

people asking what my writing process is as if i even know. i just blackout and hope something good comes out of it

*reading my own writing* wow this really does cater to all my specific needs
