When I say it’s a good horror story, I mean that. There are a lot of thought-provoking horrors out there, usually to represent things gone too far, like dystopias. I think most good horrors are functionally dystopias.

Coraline is about home, courage, and the horrors of wishful thinking. It takes a ‘what if’ and digs into exactly…[Read more]

Aw maaan 😂 I’ve never seen you back down on dramatic ‘dark’ stuff before… *Gives you a side-eye*

@ellette-giselle

This one notified me.

@ellette-giselle do you want me to repost mine?

@ellette-giselle

Hmmmmmm

I’m outta ideas

@ellette-giselle

I did respond, but I didn’t get a notification either.

@whalekeeper

I’m not subscribed, and I didn’t get any notification when Ellette tagged me.

@ellette-giselle

No I didn’t. I’ve just been stalking that forum so I know what’s going on.

@ellette-giselle

Are y’all subscribed to the topic? I think it can glitch sometimes and remove your subscription.

@ellette-giselle

horror story?

oh.

You deflated very fast. XD

@ellette-giselle

Coraline! It’s a classic children’s horror story. The book reads like a fairy tale, and I could gush about the movie for a long time, but I won’t. XD

@ellette-giselle

I was told the writing style wasn’t great either.

It’s crass, in a funny way. XD I’ve only read the first book.

Have you read the original Rapunzel? Like, the 100 page narrative? Old, old, old.

I don’t think so. Then again, I know a lot of variations, so I’ve probably read an abridged version at some point.

I’m glad you enjoyed it! Definitely a new feel.

Well, thank you for venturing into new grounds! This does help freshen up this story from the others.

“When I read the gospels, it was clear that they were written by four different men, and that being so, those four different men record what they saw, how they saw it, and what details they believe were most important,” Heinrich explained. “Matthew, for instance, has a long genealogy in the beginning of his account and write…

lol, I think I’m going to keep him on the main floor to try creep out as many people as possible 😁

@ellette-giselle

…Where is Rory?

@koshka @loopylin

Rax and Ben

Rax didn’t like Syph’s answer and wanted to make amends, “I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings, I just thought you were confused, so I thought it would be best if you just came and watched. I’m sorry if I hurt you.”

@ellette-giselle I know, Rax is weird

@ellette-giselle

Never read the HTYD books because someone told me not to and just stick with the movies.

Haha, I know why. Some of the differences are night and day. Toothless is tiny and green, Fishlegs is thin… Makes me laugh to even think about it.

Oh, War Horse reminds me of another one! 101 Dalmatians is better than the book in some ways.…[Read more]

Big news! I just completed my first-ever mood board!!!! I’m so excited to hear what you all think! Do you all have any tips for making them?

Guy is my MC from my wip, Refuge Rangers. I’m planning to make boards for his men…and write a short story to go along with each…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Great! Yeah, I thought it was a really cool way to detail the narrative and make Sara’s voice distinct. I’m glad it doesn’t feel too distracting. Now to be more consistent with it 🤔😂

@whalekeeper

Awesome!! Sorry I stopped tagging you, I didn’t know if you were still reading.

Thank you so much for the feedback! Making the world relatable was one of my big focuses, because I didn’t want it to just be this unrealistic cliche dystopian. I wanted the reader to be able to see why the government was this way, and for the gra…[Read more]
