And most of that you probably already knew, but there it is. You said “character arcs” and I got excited. XD Sorry.

@rae

My pages are covered in random notes about everything, from worldbuilding to plot, and then I don’t look back at them, and forget what’s going on.

@trailblazer

First off, that story sounds incredibly intriguing. Not your average story, and maybe one that you can use to deal with things most people deal with, but don’t talk about.

For developing character arcs, I would suggest you 1. Find a message, 2. Find a flaw that corresponds and fits the character uniquely 3. Determine what the…[Read more]

You have good points. I was mainly worried about him because he was my favorite and my favorites always die. XD

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

@stephie

I shall have to try the textbook method.

@stephie

Your new name and profile pick are MAGNIFICENT.🤣

@jonas

Cool, I will love to hear your thoughts then!

@stephie

@raxforge

@raxforge

🤣🤣 Does that mean you like everything about worldbuilding?

What is something each person here likes about worldbuilding?

@whalekeeper

I thanketh thee for the memes.

@raxforge

I’m a terrible role model. XD

@ellette-giselle

The Governor actually talked about splitting up households so that there were ten people each. So having small neighbor families move in together and big family split.

WHAT??? I was mostly joking with that question!

That’s when the American spirit kicked in for a lot of folks and they were like, “oh you just try.”

I’m now pictu…[Read more]

I feel I must bless this topic’s birth with memes.
