Links to Writing Meta
Thought I'd compile these which I saved in my bookmarks and Dreamwidth memories. Great discussion in the comments for most of these.
On AO3:
"How to Write Fiction When the Planet is Falling Apart": For getting into the mindset to write what seems no more than silly stories. The essay was written during the pandemic but remains always relevant especially for hobbyist authors sharing their writing for free.
On Dreamwidth:
synecdochic's index of writing meta: These are pretty well-known even if I haven't heard a mention of them in a while. The index is very thorough and organised, and covers the different phases of writing -- writing the story itself, editing it and interacting with readers via the story.
Meta bysilveradept:
- "Take Care Of Yourself"
- "Constructive Criticism Often Isn't"
- "There's Always Someone Better"
- "When Do You Start Creating Fanworks?"
- "No Comments, No Kudos, No Good? No way."
- "Commenting Is A Learned Skill"
Meta bypoppyseedheart: "Who's on First (How to Pick a POV Character)"
Meta byelf: "Writer resources online (and not just theyfightcrime.org)" -- Discussion about finding suitable and useful tools for writing stories with extensive worldbuilding.
