That was so sweet! I love sibling relationships. And I tell one of my brothers he needs to take a shower all the time. 😂

Yeah, ofc, to everything you said 😂
I don’t personally relate to Riker’s abuse, or Leon’s anger against God, but I do understand them.
I second Koshka’s point! That’s how I would summarize my opinion.

I honestly don’t think I can answer that, lol.
For me, the two have very similarly structured POVs and voices – which is totally a stylistic thing since they are supposed to parallel each other. But that makes it harder for me to choose XD
The main difference is their internal struggles. I also can’t say I enjoy one con…[Read more]

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 6 months ago
Oh, interesting question…
Well my kneejerk reaction is Riker because I feel so bad for him but honestly it’s got to be Leon.
Here’s a couple reasons why:
Leon feels realistic. He’s lost his spouse, been in the concentration camp, and now has to start over. It makes sense he might become a alcoholic.
Leon’s character arc…[Read more]

Hello! I have never had lemon juice on pancakes before. I do love maple syrup on lemon yoghurt pancakes though. I am definitely a night owl. I am regularly up past midnight reading. I have a lot of favorite authors, including L. M. Montgomery, Louisa May Alcott, Walter R. Brooks, Brandon Sanderson, Nadine Brandes, Jill Williamson,…[Read more]

Hmm. Maybe she could have the power to heal people, but also to hurt people? Like she could take away their pain/illness by putting it in a jar or something, but than be able to easily infect/hurt people with it? Or maybe she could create food from nothing, but because of this she could also poison people really easily? Or if…[Read more]

I would love some plotting help from you guys if you have the time! I’m thinking about starting one of my stories as a webtoon and I’m wanting to work out the kinks first.
I’m tagging you guys because it’s a lot darker than my other story and I didn’t think you would mind lol.
Basically, there’s a point that could be a…[Read more]

It’s so funny that I (and Loops now?) have a reputation of being fine with darkness 😂 Am I darker than the average person?
Ooh, okay, so is this female scientist going to have a redemption arc? Either I would assume that by reading from her POV, or I would assume she is only going to be an initial POV character as an intro to the world and s…[Read more] -
Ooo I love this story idea.
So you’re asking if the scientist lady should be forced into the experiment in the first episode or in a later episode, right?
I agree it’s a great hook, but I guess it depends on how much world building and stuff you want to fit in before that happens to her. Maybe you want some time to show what her normal life loo…[Read more]-
@loopylin
Thanks 🙂
@whalekeeper @loopyThank you guys so much for your feedback! Showing a bit of her normal life before could be a good idea…. hmmm I’ll think about it.

Oh I’m sorry I didn’t know it would bug you! I just tagged you and loopy because I knew it wouldn’t disturb you, everyone has different tolerance levels. I didn’t mean to say you are a dark person 😂
Thanks!
And thank you for the prayers! <3
Lol are you infj too?
Btw how are you doing?

It’s okay 🤪 I think there are specific types of dark, and I lean into a different type than others do on here. Like for some reason a lot of people here don’t write or read dark humor? But tragic/tortured/abusive backstories are common and detailed. It’s a weird combination of preferences, and I have to admit I don’t identify with those prefere…[Read more]

Also I’m sorry if I sounded pushy over the whole darkness topic! 😖

I get that, maybe it does seem odd to other people. Dark humor is pretty much fine to me, Ig just depending on context like anything else.
I think on kp where the *line* stands seems odd because it’s largely dependent on religious beliefs vs some standard. Like, most of us here are not comfortable with ‘creepy’ stuff. For example,…[Read more]

That’s interesting. I analyze other people, but I also analyze myself to a further extent. I want to understand all the things my subconscious is hiding from me so I know exactly how I work XD

Riiight, so it’s a distinction between objectively bad things/creepy/bordering on dark magic. I’ve understood the magic issue to some extent, it’s just a lot of the in-between stuff that bothers me.
Side note, I was into Veggie Tales and Pixar 🙃

Ah, yes, the elusive subconscious 🤣
I’m almost definitely taking a gap year. Whenever I tell a well-to-do mom I’m not going to college right away, they’ll pause, and their eyes go glassy… it’s funny but intimidating because I’m not living up to expectations.

Ah, I see where some of the confusion is. I think the best way I can explain it is that for the majority of the people here, creepy isn’t a shade of dark, it’s an entirely other animal that isn’t ok. I’m not trying to say your doing something wrong, just some people won’t be on board. It’s something that for me changes with exposure.…[Read more]

Lol, that’s interesting. Well you should be proud for picking what works best for you, instead of doing the popular thing. You’re living up to your expectations, not theirs. Isn’t that important? 🙂

Ooh, trauma! XD Anyway. Do you have a pattern for your character’s magic, or is it more like everyone just gets random powers because it fits them? And what kind of magic are you looking for for her?

Pretty much. It’s kinda like a screen, so it simulates what the outside should look like, but it’s not very good. So it can start pouring rain and lighting and thunder, but it may take a minute for the Orb to adjust and look like a cloudy sky.
That sounds very inconvenient to live under. No wonder your characters want to get out. Doe…[Read more]

You know you’re a writer when you meet rude or weird people and you decide to use them as a template for your next villain.
There is a boy at my co-op who ridiculed one of my characters, so he is one of the main villains now. 😝So there!
