Vale-She/They, Fantasy author in progress Fanfic is my training arc Art. Ink. Obsession. Also nonsense. @knifeandink on tiktok, Ao3 https://archiveofourown.org/users/KnifeandInk/profile

TikTok will advertise AI slop and barely-censored fetish content, but my Astarion "A Hole for Gale, Dekarios" shirt got shadowbanned even after I censored "hole." I've had videos buried over swearing too. The double standard is wild. #tiktok #fuckthis

I love when authors include the music they were listening to while writing a fic.Unfortunately, the second I slip into my writing flow state, the music stops existing. It's just background noise. I genuinely could not tell you what was playing while I wrote a scene. #ficwriter #fanfic #music

This is a bit outside my comfort zone, but are there any Discord servers for BG3 fanfic writers and artists? I'm pretty shy and usually end up lurking more than talking, but I'd really love to connect with other creators, bounce ideas around, get feedback, and maybe even find some beta readers. #bg3

The fact that my Ascended Astarion fanfic is now over 100k words is absolutely insane to me.Thats.. a whole ass novel. I wrote a freaking novel. Granted, I've only published about 30k words so far because I'm still revising and editing the rest, but still..Wow. Don't doubt yourself folks. #astarion

PSA: Virtual photographers, you are artists. Before joining the BG3 fandom, I didn’t even know virtual photography existed. Now I’m constantly blown away by your work. Art comes in countless mediums, and yours is one of them. Don’t be afraid to call yourself an artist. ❤️ #virtualphotography #vp

Apparently, I have to take a little break from drawing. I think I pinched a nerve in my neck or something, and now I can’t look down without being in a ridiculous amount of pain... probably because I’ve been drawing too much. Ugh. #artistproblems

Feeling a little sad today. I grew up spending so much time at the beach and around the water. Unfortunately, because of my health, I can't tolerate the sun or heat anymore... so beach days just aren't an option for me now. #bigsad
