  • Any funny fuckups that happen to you while writing

Please don't post:

  • Serious questions, research and discussion. There are other subs for that.

What are your thoughts on regular human characters with unnatural hair colors?

And I’m talking about that hair being fully genetic, not just hair dye.

I cannot make conversations between even just 2 characters. I spread my curse.

I'm more used to someone else writing with me, where we each respond to eachother's characters or scenes in turn.

You have to assert dominance early otherwise they'll walk all over you

I'm Just a Writer With Weird Ideas! I swear!

You know. I really hate getting story ideas where I CANT. ASK. QUESTIONS. ABOUT. THE. IDEA. because people might think I'm being a creeper with a weird kink when really, I'm just a writer trying to figure out this very specific thing to be as accurate as possible. Doesn't help that the idea technically does have a kink and I'm too autistic sometimes to realize my questions might be inappropriate.

(Maybe I'm just too nervous because I keep seeing how people take innocent things, like Poufs of dresses [yes, the ruffles under big dresses] or corsets, and make it sexual with people who haven't consented)

Edit: the worry isn't about clothing.
