Friday Post: Creating Characters
Rather than lore, this week I figured I’d share my process for creating the characters of How Best to Use a Sword.
Category: Other writing
Sometimes I write things that aren’t How Best to Use a Sword, and I’ll put them all in here! I also have another website that stores some of my other collected works!
From Someone’s Father, If Not Mine
And rounding out my fanfiction tonight is a work based on The Soul Snatchers’ Saga by my friend Nikkie2571, featuring a sad preteen, his abusive dad, and a magic illusion that doesn’t cure dysphoria.
Dance Class
More fanfiction, this time of my friend Monetarilydizzy’s awesome Here and Then series, which just celebrated its second anniversary on Thursday! For this one I wrote about a fairly minor character who I adore, mostly because I didn’t trust myself to write about a major character whose mysteries I haven’t unraveled yet. Enjoy!
On the Island of Happiness
What we have here is the first of three pieces of fanfiction! It is based on the Forevermore series by my friend Lationgamer123, and is about one of my favourite of his characters having a bit of an off day. Enjoy!
5. On Adult Content
Tumblr, what the fuck is adult content?
I’m asking you in this format, because once you navigate through the wasp’s nest of pages that you link to one another to disorient your user who wants information about what your new policy entails, you finally come at a link that says if you have additional questions, you can fill out a support request and someone will get back to you soon.
4. On Complacency
Tumblr, what you’re doing is going to work and we both know it.
3. On Hierarchies of Art
Tumblr, I’m frustrated.
2. On Censorship
Tumblr, I’m angry.
1. On Lying
Tumblr, I’m disappointed.

Dear Lila,
It’s okay now, everything is okay.
