A perfectly understandable complication. After all, now you have to make every aspect of your world just as complicated as that porridge recipe. It’s only natural.

*Watches you scream* *Joins you by screaming into my stuffed unicorn*

The best decision I ever made for Project Lovedream was to limit the world-building to one city due to an extreme history of isolationism, plus the science fiction boundaries implemented because of it. It makes my job a whole lot easier.

Have you drawn maps for your…[Read more]

That actually reminds me of a conversation I saw on CWW before the community closed. It was about relatability and likability. A lot of people seemed to think relatability makes a character likable. I’m not sure if I agree with everything they said, but it was still interesting to read.

@jonas

Yeah, that makes total sense. He is only relatable for some people. It’s impossible to relate to every character, but you can still like them. And I’m glad Sanderson gave him several things to work through, specifically in WoR. :-]

@koshka

One of the first things I pin down are what I consider the building blocks of a culture; Cold or warm; Individualist or collectivist; Rich or poor; Military or civilian; Old or young. Then I find the cultural ideals for beauty, character, morality, nobility, justice.

This stuff is all so fuuuuuun, and all so eeendleeeeeeesssss. And just…[Read more]

I agree that he is a sorrowful sack of mope, but it does not bother me at all. XD I actually kind of understand Kaladin. It’s a little silly to say, especially because I’m not an ex-general ex-slaved turned-general-again with a pile of trauma and white knight syndrome. But the way he struggles going into RoW is pretty rel…

@stephie

The textbook format has been appreciated by several writers. According to a survey performed by a certain Stepheroni and Cheese, two out of two young writing enthusiasts used this world-building tool regularly.

Mm, I credit you with accurate scientific knowledge. Take my friendship.

@theducktator

My brother says Kaladin is a sorrowful sack of mope. HE IS NOT.😭Please people, back me up on this! I need allies!

@raxforge Whoa…that’s weird.

lol

as long as you pronounce my first name as Kayla (Keilah is the Spanish/Hebrew spelling cause I’m of Puerto Rican descent and my parents pulled it from the Bible) I don’t care how you pronounce the rest of it.

Oof the /aytch/ or /haytch/ debate.

I’ve always said it the first way but I don’t get into fights over it lol

Not sure why I had to say that. But it’s 10 at night and I’m tired and have no idea what I’m doing. So.

@raxforge So your voice is more Scout, less Sniper, got it.

(Scout’s the male new englander character of the squad. Huntress is his twin sister, and also the only character I created rather than pulling from the game series I based the world off of.)

@theducktator

Yeah, I think WoR is definitely the best.

Whenever you read WaT, I’d like to hear what you think. I think I’m the only one on here who’s done. 😞

Have you ever taken the Knights Radiant quiz? What order are you?

I have a weird attachment to Australian accents. They can be subtle or they can be the most obvious thing, but I’ve found many of my favorite characters have one, even if I don’t realize it at first.

But ehh, I mean, I don’t know you except through a screen, so I’m not disappointed.

@raxforge you sound American then?

lol

Looking at it, I can see his shoulders are wonky and his arms aren’t quite posed right, but his little smirk and the way I did his talons make up for it for some reason.

And Sniper! hehe

I think he was one of the first ones I drew. I have far better drawings of him but I still love this one, it’s just something about it.

@rae lol I don’t mind posting old drawings, but only to a point. Before 2021 most were kinda cringey. There were a few gems though.

Anything TF2 related is from 2024 though so….

but anyway, here’s Demo with his wings spread and his sword in hand!

@rae AHAHAHAHAHAHA

That’s too funny.

My parents know I love to make creatures and honestly? They don’t mind. But my dad loves sci-fi books so that’s probably why. My brother thinks some of them are weird, but he loves others. He has his own, too, and they’re really cool.

They don’t know much about Soldier as a character (I haven’t shared the…[Read more]

My first drawing of him:

These drawings weren’t perfect, and I’m thinking of re-doing them, but I’m still proud of them. Especially Sniper’s and Demo’s, which I’ll show later if you want.
