@daisy-torres Aye, I’ve heard both good and bad things about Wattpad, and I feel like the stuff I write doesn’t fit into the romance vibe of it, so for now I’m hopefully going to be sticking with Webnovel and Tapas. I’m glad you had a good experience with it though.

@elanor Let whoever imprisoned them “let” them out.

@kathleenramm Lemme see if I can find the premise again…

There are 13 worlds. There are Magic Users. There is a question: “Why is there no happy ending for a Magic User?”

13 different installments, following so many different storylines that somehow entwine together.

This is the story of the Magic Users, and their search for a happy…

@kathleenramm Yesss the main trio is so well done! My sister loves them all, which is a big win, haha.

@devastate-lasting

Phil is great. My favorite character would probably Rei, but Norman is just a thread behind. I really like both smart and complex characters who are a lot more than what they appear. I kinda expected Rei in the beginning to be the typical emo kid with black hair and Norman to be the typical smart kid who never breaks the rules.…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Oh wow. Thirteen Ways to Infinity sounds crazy in the best way possible. What is the premise?

@devastate-lasting

All I can say is…wow.

That is…quite a lot of words.

@kathleenramm

The quickest I ever wrote a full length novel was in Camp NaNoWriMo one year, 2018 i think, when I finished my 90k novel in three weeks. I have never done that again 😛 I think the longest I’ve been actively working on a project is about eighteen months,…[Read more]

@daisy-torres Ah thank you so much! Unfortunately, no, I wouldn’t recommend it. The readerbase is very small already and without signing a contract it is hard to garner any attention for your work. Plus, the site caters much more to genres like LGBT.

@kathleenramm

I’m a huge rereader, so if there’s something I read in my youth and I can remember what it was called, I’ll probably reread it.

The ones that don’t stand up for me now are usually older books, like Pollyanna (while I like that Pollyanna is cheerful through a lot of bad things, personally I think she’s way too cheerful and the…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver

Ooohh, Elsie Dinsmore…you’ve just brought up quite a lot of repressed memories. And you’re right, Elsie is the epitome of legalistic Christianity, and if that was an accurate representation of Christianity…well, I wouldn’t want to have anything to do with it.

But like you, it’s also one of the reasons I’m committed to writing…[Read more]

I don’t have a whole lot to contribute currently because this is an issue I’ve been trying to figure out myself, but I’m very interested to read the discussion and I might weigh in later!

@daisy-torres Ay, I have an urban fantasy series on Tapas called Those Who Were Given Another Yesterday! Feel free to read with the link below.

@sparrowhawke Oh, if you’re 18, I’m sure it’ll be fine. I read Monster when I was fifteen. It’s not too gory, and the most sexual stuff is all implied, nothing really explicit on screen. There’s a lot of murder (crime genre for a lot of it) and a lot of very heavy themes, but it’s all very good, so I highly recommend.

@sparrowhawke Ah, ’tis my time to shine.

I’ve read so much manga in the last few years I’m not sure if I should be ashamed or not. At this point I’ve been desensitised to most things so I’m going to watch myself when recommending stuff.

When people ask for reccs usually the first one I recommend is Fullmetal Alchemist! It’s absolutely perfect,…[Read more]

@daisy-torres *distant coughing* My stuff.

@kathleenramm

Shortest was a quick three page short called “Delusionary” that was based off of a quick two line conversation someone and I had during rehearsal one day. But short stories aside, I can write 50-80k work in 40 days. But that doesn’t count, actually. Which perfectly segues me into…

Longest: “Thirteen Ways to Infinity” is an…[Read more]

Shortest: Not counting short stories, since I can write at least one of those in a single day, the project that took the least time for me was the novel I wrote the first time I officially participated in NaNoWriMo. I wrote around 53k in 23 days. I have no plans to do anything with that novel because it’s kind of terrible and there are very few…[Read more]

How exciting! Congratulations!

@abigail-m

you didn’t have to cross the “better than a comedian” part out. I’ll take that compliment proudly.

Thanks for the story, the yoda quote, and tips. But honestly, time isn’t my problem. I have several hours of free time a day where I just lay down and stare up at the sky and contemplate my life and daydream about what could have…[Read more]
