A collection of some of the best writing tips I’ve seen. The one thing I’d add is that you shouldn’t let the last one get in the way of the first one.

I figured I don’t have enough of little marauders, so here they are, on their very first year in Hogwarts. 

James is totally talking about something really scary like him sneaking into the girl’s bathroom or whatever and freaking them out
look at this face, isn’t it terrifying?:D





everything about this kills me.

“They’ve been very disorienting, these last few weeks. I see now that dismissing YA books because you’re not a young adult is a bit like refusing to watch thrillers on the grounds that you’re not a policeman or a dangerous criminal, and as a consequence I’ve discovered a previously ignored room at the back of the bookstore that’s filled with masterpieces I’ve never heard of.”

- Nick Hornby, in Shakespeare Wrote for Money (via literatebitch)

I was listening to Katy Perry's "E.T" today and couldn't stop thinking of Alina and the Darkling, lol. Having them as an OTP is painful, just so you know. Hits you right in the feels.

Okay, I’ve fought my growing affection for Katy Perry, but I can do so no longer. I had a reader rec “Wide Awake” because the video looked so much like the cover of the UK version of Shadow and Bone (The Gathering Dark) and now THIS. Love it.


And I’m sorry for the pain. But not really. *capers away, laughing maniacally*

oh ya, will we ever get the Darkling's true name? kinda want a name to call him :/ also is it bad that I wanna hug him? wanted to hug him from the start :P

Hmm, Darkling hugs can be a perilous undertaking.


And yes, by the end of the trilogy, you will know the Darkling’s true name.
