3) šWhat tags or warnings will your / one of your wip(s) need if you intend to share it?
Ok for my original novel series I intend for it to be I donāt know āT ratedā. I think of the TV that I like which doesnāt shy away from sensitive topics but isnāt generally gratuitous with the violence, sex or swearing. The term āfamily friendlyā has got bad connotations these days so Iām not keen on applying that label. Also if the characters need to say āfuckā then they will (I mean it is an apocalypse). Itās not about sanitising itās about not being distracting. Iām not a fan when characters say āfuckā practically every other word as (to me, in my opinion) it loses emphasis and is then just irritating. I think I can tell the story without leaning on cheap techniques for shock value. But weāll see I guess.
For tags (as opposed to warnings) then: portal fantasy, queer characters/slow burn romance, military science fiction, magic and aliens, saving the world, prejudice, fear, found family and friendship. That kind of thing.
Now with the art that would obviously depend on the piece but never any warnings. I have no interest personally in drawing sexy art or anything like that. No shade on those who do and maybe I will get the inspiration in the future but itās not on my list now. Anyway for tags so varied because it covers all the fandoms, my ships, characters. I will do canon, I will do AU.
To pick a specific art piece because aside from the Librarians exchange I am not actively tossing any ideas from my list around at the moment (and my exchange piece is supposed to be secret). Oh! Thereās the painting I want to do for the Motherās Day card. Mum and I usually once a year (though last year was the first since 2019) go to the seaside and play crazy golf. So I was thinking of painting a dog with a club in its mouth, the pirate flag fluttering behind (itās a pirate themed course) and the caption something like ācan I use my paw or tail instead?ā and then an IOU inside for a trip out when it opens in the spring/better weather. So tag for fluff, dog, bad humour lol. I donāt know.
