7. Wait. I don't know how much better it's going to get. :\ Unfortunately, for every fandom tard that grows up, there are ten more. Lurk and wait to spot the cool ones?
9. The cosplayers seem to get better the more time goes on, so just give 'em time to create that obscene filigree everyone seems to be sporting. (I hope.)
10. People play pretend a lot. None of the stuff that even gets close to "muse" sort of things shows up until you've been writing for YEARS with the same character. (And that's not your character being like, "omg i think ur best freind is hawt u shuld draw them!" or some dumb shit like that; it's more something like you plan a situation and then it just turns out that your character wouldn't react the way you thought they would. That's the closest your character gets to "talking" to you, at least in my experiences.) You're not the weird one. ^^
16. This is such a cool photograph.

10. I'd also like to say...(thought I haven't written for that long and am no expert)
Often when I'm writing a character (doing something or talking with others or whatever) it feels very difficult and stilted and awful...and other times it's quite easy and fluid. It's not like they're telling me what to write, but in some rare cases the writing is going easily enough to almost feel like that. So if I was talking about muses "telling me what to do",(which I haven't done often, I think, and gotten less inclined to use the word after having read here how much it annoys some people) I wouldn't be meaning it seriously...it would just be an excuse for the crazy stuff people I write, is all. >///>
And all this is just how writing feels for me, personally, and I suspect it different for other people.

That's pretty similar to how it feels to me too, and I'd also like to add your disclaimer to mine. ^^
