Alive and gettin' my writing mojo back!
5 years ago
General
Kindness. Sometimes it can be just taking a moment to say something nice to someone--whether it's to compliment their hair or their clothing style--can make a difference if someone is having a bad day. So spread more kind words, make someone's day a little brighter~ Hey guys!
I know I keep dropping in and out like that, but honestly things have been a little on the busy side for me so creativity wise I've been running a little dry. =w=
However, just recently--a couple of days ago at least--I feel as though I've discovered that same mojo I once had back in high school when I first started writing without worrying about perfection and just...having fun! It's been a huge relief just feeling that same creative flow of energy again, and I've been doing what I can to foster that and help it grow back into that surge I used to have--and maybe turn it into something greater! ;;o;;
What does this mean? Well at the moment since I'm slowly starting back into getting into writing short stories and scenarios again, I'm fine-tuning things. BUT! This also means that I should be able to take requests again!
HOWEVER!!! These requests will come with a few rules.
Rule 1: It is not first come, first serve! Depending on the number of people requesting, you will each be given a number (it will be a completely random number since it seems like going from 1 to 10 or whatever can be seen as unfair). Then, using randomized selector (I have a couple on my phone I can use and will provide screenshots of the before and after shots so it's not seen as playing favoritism or anything). I will only be doing one person at a time, and once I am done with that request I will post it and do the request randomization again. This is so I don't overwhelm myself so I can keep going! >83
Rule 2: These requests will happen based on my time and motivation and the amount of inspiration. As much as I am working on getting my writing back up to the pace I want it to be again, please keep in mind that if I am not inspired to write the idea (either too little detail was given on the scenario or the idea does not match the personalities/behaviors of the character's I'm being requested to write for), I may end up not being able to accept the idea at all. However! I am not completely unreasonable and am willing to work with you on creating another possible scenario so long as you're willing to work with me as well. I have my limits, and I want to give you the best product I can, and I don't want to put a half-assed effort into something that I don't feel I can accomplish the way you want.
Rule 3: When you are chosen, you MUST provide a scenario that you want me to write as well as the character you want me to write with and the character from the series I'm currently writing for. This includes: basic profile (if you have a profile image available that'll help, but is not necessary if you can give a short description), personality and their little quirks (what do they do when they're nervous, angry/annoyed, happy, etc), and any other information that you feel may be relevant to the scenario area you've given me. If I require more information or ask for more details, it's because I'm trying to get a clearer picture in my head on how to make this work, so please be patient I am a very curious and detail-oriented bat! ;;w;;
Rule 4: I will be making a list of fandoms and such I will write for. The catch is, I will only list those I am willing to write for at the moment! Much like what you crave during snack time, there are certain fandoms I am just itching to write for and my motivation is at an all-time high for that fandom! That is the fandom I feel at this time I will be able to properly give the best magical experience it deserves that I want to gift to you guys! This will change based on how I'm feeling, at least to try and help gain more traction creativity wise so I can write more. I don't want to lose this steam before it's even gotten started!
Rule # Now I'm not opposed to writing for fantasy/original character stuff outside of fandoms too! This will depend on the characters I'm provided with, but it's a possibility!
Rule 5: There will be times where I will be busy handling other real life obligations, so as a result there may be delays in how fast I can finish these things. If something comes up or I have to delay my writing, I will be sure to let you know right when it happens and keep you updated as often as I can! An occasional message checking up on me and asking how things are going is okay, but if it becomes too frequent I will give you only one warning to stop. If it ends up happening again, I will drop the request entirely and you will be banned from requesting anything from me. I am a human being, not a machine that spits out words on command, so please be respectful. :/
Rule 6: Once I complete a request for you, you are allowed to post it on your own art accounts so long as you give credit! Just note that I will be posting it on my art accounts as well as my writing accounts, so please don't go claiming credit for it. That is very rude, and if I catch you doing that I will permanently block, report, and ban you. >BC
Rule 7: There are topics I will not touch whatsoever as I am either not comfortable at the thought of writing that stuff or I do not feel as though I would be able to give it the proper representation it would need. If you are not sure if I will write for this particular subject/topic/whatever and you don't see it on my list, please message me about it first before asking for a request before a drawing I will have to turn you down and reopen the requests again. I will be updating my list of will/won't do's as things come up so make sure you check or ask beforehand please!
Aaaaaaand...that's it!
That's all I have at the moment, but I will be posting another journal once I am ready to open up those requests! I've got a busy schedule over the next few days, but keep an eye out! UvU
