Yeah, I did notice that.
Signature is limited to 100 characters? That seems awfully unjust. We refuse to be bound by these ru

*suddenly gets an idea*
Does Kingdom Pen have a ghost? In the Young Writers Workshop there is a fictional ghost named Opal that haunts the Ydubs notification and tech systems. Whenever there are glitches or strange technical problems, the students blame it on Opal. One time they did a competition to see who could come up with the best origin story for Ydub’s pet ghost. Is there such a story/rumor floating around here?

October 12, 2023 at 6:00 pm #158821Hey girl!! Yes it has been forever!! I’m sorry I haven’t been on in…almost 3 weeks 😅 Life’s been crazy. Today is my baby sister’s one year birthday 😭❤😭❤ I love her sooo much, she’s literally the most precious little thing 😭❤ She’s growing up way too fast 🥺
I haven’t written in AGES 😭😅 I’ve decided that I’m going to strip my whole WIP of everything except my characters and a few vital basic plotlines…and just build from there. Soooo anything that you know abt my WIP with Dylan, Asher, Iris, Vance, etc is probably about to change drastically. Just a note 😅

How are you doing girl? How’s life? <3

it’s totally fine! In person life is generally more healthy than online life anyways XD
Woah… she’s one year now?!
She’s so lucky to have such a loving big sis 🥰

Stripping the whole plot and starting over is a pretty universal experience among writers it seems… XD
That’s fine! Sometimes it take getting rid of the old stuff to make the new plot more cohesive. If you have time to tell me what changes you’ve made, I’d love to hear about it!

I’m doing alright! Family tensions aren’t any better, and now that I have a informal diagnosis from my psychology teacher I understand it isn’t going to get better. I’m trying to understand the fact that personality alterations because of brain damage are not the persons fault? Even if everything they have done/said has been so deeply personal? I’m processing that rn.
School is extremely hard this quarter, I have two really heavy classes. My social anxiety has gotten a lot worse. It’s not like a phobia, but I get a stomach ache the day before and the day of social gatherings. It’s not fun.
Anyways, the better stuff 🤣🤣
I’ve been writing a lot! I switched to google docs awhile ago, and it’s so much more organized. I label chapters out farther than I have written, and then put a short outline instead, then latter I come back and write the chapters I’m feeling the most that day. The plot is turning out so much more concise than last time, everything happens for a reason, and there isn’t nearly as much filler. I’m actually having so much fun with it!! 😁
Because I got my drivers license recently, I can drive myself to the library. Aaaand my sister got me a dvd player for my bday, so I’ve been catching up on all the Marvel I’ve missed! I watched the first two of Captain America, and I’m 2/3rds the way through the third movie. I posted some Bucky fanart in the art forum (idk if you saw it, if you’re too busy np) and you might have noticed Freedom using my Cap fanart for her pfp XD (She asked really nice don’t worry)
(Tagging freedom here because I know she can’t miss out on a marvel conversation XD)

Honestly I don’t like Tony as much as I thought I would 🤣 he’s super witty and adds a lot but as a person I kinda don’t like him lol. I like Bucky more with each movie but I’d like to know why he keeps his backpack under the floorboards… paranoid maybe? His metal arm is just the best 🤣 sooo cooool! 🤩🤩🤩
Also the front of my bangs looks a little like the front of Bucky’s hair sometimes (He’s got some kind of fringe thing in civil war), and it makes me really happy 😊
If I wasn’t so sensitive a couple years ago, I wish I had watched these movies. I enjoy them, but I think I would’ve enjoyed them more when I was younger 😢

October 16, 2023 at 8:55 am #159061Heheh….
So last week I figured out how to use Google Sheets to keep track of my daily and weekly wordcounts for my two main writing projects and DUDE I LOVE IT!!!!
October 16, 2023 at 8:53 pm #159160it’s totally fine! In person life is generally more healthy than online life anyways XD
XD Yeah that’s true
Woah… she’s one year now?!
She is 😭😭
She’s so lucky to have such a loving big sis 🥰
Awww thank you girl 🥰

Yeah! I’m hoping it’ll help with the falling-apart-totally-unorganized feel that it had before 😭🤣 Okay!! Yes I’d love to tell you about it! I don’t really have a wholeee lot done yet but I’m thinking that I might have to take my charrie Lyla out completely bc she’s just not adding anything to the story honestly as of rn😭 But i’m not completely set on that yet so idk. Anddd I might change the genre to either fantasy or sci-fi or perhaps dystopian type setting XD That’s honestly all I’ve really thought of so far! I’ll keep you posted 😀

Oh yeah girl I understand that 🥺 I know that’s so hard. I’ll be praying for you ❤

That’s awesome girl!!!! I’m so glad!!!! I knowww Google Docs is a LIFESAVER 😍😁 I’m so glad that you’re having fun with it!!! That’s what it’s supposed to make us feel, ya know? XD Even tho we get stressed out over it usually more than we have fun with it XD #lifeofawriter

YAY MARVEL YESSSS!!!! Yes i did see it it looks ✨A M A Z I N G✨!!! Your art style is literally the most adorable thing ever, like, I love it so much 😍😍😍😍
Honestly I don’t like Tony as much as I thought I would 🤣 he’s super witty and adds a lot but as a person I kinda don’t like him lol. I like Bucky more with each movie but I’d like to know why he keeps his backpack under the floorboards… paranoid maybe? His metal arm is just the best 🤣 sooo cooool! 🤩🤩🤩
🤣🤣 Yeah I can understand that, he’s definitely…a lot 😅😅 I actually love him because of his character development and through out the movies, tho he tries to hide it, you can see that he really does care about people but he’s just afraid to show it so that they won’t get hurt..which is so sad and kinda relatable on some levels 😭
YESSSS OMG YESSSS BUCKY BOYYYY 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 I LOVE him sooooo much ❤❤❤❤ Yesss his metal arm is super cool 🤩🤩 And yeah, probably. He’s definitely paranoid, and he has cause to be😭😭
Also the front of my bangs looks a little like the front of Bucky’s hair sometimes (He’s got some kind of fringe thing in civil war), and it makes me really happy 😊
Oh my gosh really?! That’s awesome 🤩🤩 I love his hair in Civil War, I would be super happy too 😊🤩
And that’s so funny now I’m imagining the mental picture that I have of you with bangs and it’s so cool🤣🤩 Maybe I’m just weird but I’ve gotten a mental picture in my head for each of my online friends based off of their texting/writing voice, idk it’s just fun XD
If I wasn’t so sensitive a couple years ago, I wish I had watched these movies. I enjoy them, but I think I would’ve enjoyed them more when I was younger 😢
Yeah 😢 But definitely good that you didn’t scar yourself watching them when you weren’t quite ready, I have experience in that area, the nightmares aren’t fun 😅 And if they were nightmares about Bucky boi?😭😭😭
I’m glad I’m just now watching them too 😅 Now I have wonderful dreams about Bucky helping me with groceries XDXD
(Seriously, I had that dream a few nights ago, it was amazing 🤣🤩)

October 16, 2023 at 9:07 pm #159163Thanks for the prayers girl!! <3
Dystopian setting would be awesome… you know I love that lol.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you think my art style is cute!! I started out drawing people from manga and just softened it a bit, made the eyes and noses bigger… and yeah that was kinda it! I think my art is a little more proportionally accurate than manga, but it’s still super similar.
Oh lol that’s hilarious. I just realized I have a mental picture of you in my head XD It’s kinda blurry though 🤣
Yeah I get that. And tbh, Tony being the one to sacrifice is the ultimate character growth.
Ikr, Bucky is sooo cool.
LOl, wait you actually had a dream where Bucky helped you with groceries? 🤩🤩😍 Girlllll I want that dream toooo XDXD
Tbh I just like Bucky so much I could never have a nightmare about him XD even though he looks so scary as the winter soldier, I just like him too much.
I just got this really dumb dream of me live action role-playing as a politician with other people 😭 it had something to do with trump but I can’t even remember now lol
I just did another drawing of Bucky, it’s on black paper in white pencil and pen! It’s like one of my best drawings ever!! But anyways, it turned out looking kinda intense and a little unnerving XD so maybe I won’t post it on my wall. My parents aren’t marvel fans and they might be confused lol. I don’t want them to think I’m into *bad boys* 😭🤣

Hahahaha yesss!! If I do Dystopian I’ll def need some advice from the expert 😉 <3
You’re welcome!! Yes!! Ooooo that’s really cool. Yeah I love any and all cute styles of drawing XDXD Manga, anime, chibi, and anything related to any of those 😅😅 My art goals are literally ‘learn how to draw like Min’ 🤣🤩😍
Really!! Yay I’m so glad I’m not the only one 🤣😅 What would be crazy is if we look anything like the mental pics that we have of each other 🤭 I wanna meet you so bad one day 😭😭
Yes when he sacrificed for literally everyone…let’s just say I was a nine year old mess the rest of the day 😅😭😭 I still am. I can’t watch Endgame without crying over Nat and Tony 😭
Yes he isssss 🤩😍
YES I DID!!!! 😍🤩🤣 It was AMAZING 🤭 Yess!! *Sending lots of Bucky thoughts in hopes that you’ll dream abt him helping you with your groceries too*
That is glorious 🤣😭 Now that’s what most of my dreams are like 😭 Occasionally there will be a romantic one and those I freaking cherish 🤣🤭
OoOOoOoOOoo!!!!! Hahahahaha I feel you girl 🤣🤭 Can I see??

I don’t have many dreams like that lol. I did have a dream with Tauren in it once though! he was working really hard at something as he usually would be in the mines, but I don’t think I got to talk to him ;(
