madamovary asked: The Amazon also-bought code isn't always the greatest. The last time I was shopping for a cheap apartment vacuum, the most prominent also-bought was "Male Chastity: A Guide for Keyholders" by Lucy Fairbourne.

copperbadge:

Well. I mean.

I can tell you how those are related, I see a causality, but I’m not sure you wanna know.

Put two fanfic tropes in my ask and I tell which I’d rather read.

YES.

I once saw someone point out something I hadn’t really considered before- libraries are one of the only places that are warm and dry where you can stay for long periods of time if you have no money. If you’re someone with nowhere to go during the daytime, they provide a safe environment in which to keep a roof over your head for a while- and all while you can access information.

So yes. This.

At my college library we have a computer area that’s reserved for the homeless only so they don’t have to wait for a computer. There’s a lot of resources that the librarians have behind the desk if someone needs it like where the shelters are and more.

Resource: Wound Types and How to Treat Them

Violence, fights, tension–three words that often carry a story a long, especially anything in the fantasy, sci-fi, or action-adventure realm. Whether it’s hand-to-hand combat (see older resource posts), or weapon usage, fights should be as realistic as possible: the focus should be on the fiction, the characters, and story, not your reader scratching their head saying “that could never really happen.” Here are some resources I hope will help as you embark on your more “wound-based” scenes:

Writing About Wounds:

The Basics:

Gunshot Wounds:

Knife/Stab Wounds:

Healing is just as important as the fight when it comes to story believability. If your character was shot one day ago and is now running aroun the Olympics, it’s likely your reader will close the book and forget about all the important story-telling you had engaged them in prior. Facts count, so don’t let the small stuff derail your next big hit.
