The last one was a year old and slightly out of date, so time for a new one. We’re a DID system that occasionally writes, you can find our writing blog below in the list and our AO3 here. We also have a ko-fi, but it is currently under construction until we figure out things.

Front rotation changes semi-often and isn’t super consistent, but a basic list of some of our current frequent fronters, along with a super simple BYF, can be found here. It also directly links to another carrd with very basic alter intros for alters that want to be known.

I'm sorry but I just have to appreciate the wordplay on that last sign. It's brilliant.

Silly little dragon rider zits au that I’m probably never gonna make anything of again after this :D

Tips on character voices when writing fic

This is written in mind for people writing fic in MCYT/QSMP/DSMP/Life series/etc kind of fandoms. But if anyone finds it useful for anything else, well then, hell yeah.

Character voice is big in all, uh, fiction, and mimicking it in any fanwork is big. But I think it’s especially big in these fandoms where the voices are so distinct – it’s usually how a Real Person Somewhere (the streamer) talks, versus something very scripted that you’d see in a TV show or novel. And it can be a big difference in your character sounding generic versus really feeling true to the original.

1. Listen to a bunch of your subject talking. If you want to write a character well, watch vods from their point of view, or episodes where they show up a bunch. Take note of what they say and how.

2. If you don’t know how to start doing that: try literally writing down what they say. Transcribe an actual exchange in fic-format. You probably won’t want to publish a literal exchange from canon, but it will give you a sense of how to physically write what they say.

3. If you do this (or just pay attention to how they talk), you will get a lot of: Stumbling, pauses, repeating words, filler words, weird sentence constructions, fragments, etc. I love em! Here’s something that comes through in improv much more than in novels or movies: Most people, even very charismatic people, are not very eloquent when they speak. Writing out conversations or sentences will give you a sense of the unique and delightful way in which your subject is not eloquent.

OP mentioned wonda-cat's dsmp post so I want to use the opportunity to quickly promo my own MCYT writing cheat sheet doc, which has notes on 80+ CCs ranging from Hermitcraft and Life Series and Empires to QSMP too! it's a constant WIP but I've been collecting this info for almost two years straight and I'd say it's a pretty good resource :D includes commonly used words/phrases, notes on sentence structure, ways they address other people, how they type in chat and move their ingame character, and more! obviously it's not perfect and some CCs have more info than others because I am just one guy but still I've been told by a lot of people that it's pretty useful so. if anyone's interested! <3
