One-off Beta Reader Needed! [Rewards!]

Okay so I have been horrendously absent from here and my stories are feeling abandoned, but this links to why. I have applied to five different universities to do English Literature and Creative Writing. Four of five have responded so far, thanking me for my application etc. etc. and saying that they'll get back to me soon....one of those four emailed me the other night, asking for a sample of...

Halloween Makeup Test Run [With Photos!]

So I'm going to a party on Halloween (for the first time ever - it's not really a big thing in England, just an excuse to get drunk whilst looking weird) and I decided to go as Heidi from Lords of Salem mostly because I'm on a massive Rob Zombie kick lately and it's fairly easy in terms of clothes, but fun in terms of make-up. I've never dressed up for Halloween so I got all of my stuff super...

The Time Theo Rossi Followed Me on Instagram

It's true! I freaked out...a lot. My Instagram is eriathiel.I didn't think he would - I just tagged a lot of stuff with #SOAloyalist including comments on his page and then before I was gonna go to bed, I checked and...well I screamed and started shaking and my dad freaked out wondering what was wrong with me. So yes. I am quite content.I'm enrolling into college tomorrow, for my second year, and...

Life + Responsibilities

I got my AS level results - an A in English Literature, which delights me, an A in General Studies, a B in History, a C in Photography and a D in Psychology. I was seriously upset about the D in Psychology - my first choice university requires AAB but I'll be applying with an ABD. This just means I'll get a conditional offer and resit those exams to bring my grade up, though.Okay so getting a D in...

Mindless Self Promotion + Camp NaNoWriMo [Including Questions and a Selfie]

So for Camp NaNoWriMo (my camper profile can be found here) I'm just going to tally up the total word count of my fanfic updates rather than beginning a new story - I haven't got any fully fleshed out ideas and I don't want to neglect my stories. When I haven't got any ideas for my fics, I'm going to write one-shots based on prompts, I already have an idea for an original fic.My current stories...

A Teacher Wants to Read Some of My Stuff [Questions at End]

Basically I'm in my final year of college and so I need to begin my UCAS form to apply to universities and so my tutor needs to write me a reference while I work on my personal statement. My tutor is basically a teacher who makes sure I'm okay at college, that I'm not facing any problems and is there to give me advice. He's lovely and knows I'm big on writing (I mentioned NaNoWriMo on my form...

What Kind of Stories Would You Guys Like to See More Of? [I Goth'd up the Other Week]

By that I mean stuff like what actors/band members/fictional characters and stuff? Just I have a bunch of one-shot ideas and prompts that need filling and I'm not overly fussed about who I write them about - plus I want to challenge myself and not just write them about the same person time and time again...that and I may as well write stuff that people want to read. I do also have an original fic...

Writing Around Others [Questions at End]

I can't write around others. Well. If I'm at one side of the living room on my laptop and my brother is at the other and we're facing eachother, I can...But that's probably only because he can't see what I'm writing at all. If there's any possibility of someone seeing what I'm writing, I can't. For example, I always get my best ideas and motivation when I have a free period in the common room in...

Tumblr Blog Dedicated to Writing Tips

I've always been reluctant to link sites I post writing to to my personal Tumblr because I worry about my friends and family finding my fics, but I wanted a place where I could have them all linked and my followers could see my writing if they wish to. Because of this I just made a sideblog:eriathiel-writesI'm also going to be reblogging any writing tips or masterposts etc. that I come across....

Trying to Write + Blog More Often [Parts Are Relevant to My Readers]

I really want to begin writing a lot more than I currently do. Right now, pretty much all of my stories except one (To Wed a Princess, which I work on at the weekends) are on an unofficial hiatus. I just either lost interest for them or don't know where to go from where they are now. I'm considering rewriting a lot of them.I just want to write more in general, to be honest. I lost a lot of my...

I'd Love Some Advice [Including Selfie]

Okay so a very old friend of mine (as in we've been friends for a while, she's not particularly old) just invited me to a party. This party is her big sister's friend's party, so I'll be surrounded by people I don't know too well (I've met some of them a few times years and years ago) who are all older than me (in their twenties) - the exception being my friend and her big sister, who I used to go...

Question About Story Revamps + Talk About Social Anxiety

I want to revamp one of my older stories. It just kind of spiraled to a place that I'm not happy with and my writing has improved since then, but it's still a plot that I'm interested in writing. I was just wondering if it would be okay to delete the story, but repost the first chapter without any changes as I'm happy with that one as it is? I don't see why it wouldn't be okay, but I just want to...
