Hooray! It’s so much fun to do this.
Do you like collecting theme songs for your characters?
Yes, absolutely. I started a while ago, although some projects collect songs easier than others. There’s so much a song can express! Did you ever share any lists on the list threads?

@whalekeeper @elishavet-pidyon
That’s interesting. It’s fun learning how other people’s brains work.
Can you picture your family’s faces from different perspectives?
No. I can remember basic stuff like hair and if they wear glasses, of course, but the faces are really hard. At first, I can only remember a picture I drew of my dad once, my mom’s h…[Read more]

Yes! Share drawings and make a picture book. I’d buy it. 😉

Jaybird replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year, 1 month ago
That’s a very good question.
It depends. Some characters I see in flashes of movement/emotion, so their exact features can be unclear. Others I see so clearly it’s irritating because finding face claims becomes twice as hard.
Part of it depends on if I’ve drawn them before, and part of it just on how connected their personality is to…[Read more]

Oh, and I’d love to see your story! (Motivation problems understood though. Lol. I’ve got some projects like that.)

Jaybird replied to the topic Portals: When My Story Ate Me in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year, 1 month ago
Thanks! We’re thinking of getting it printed, although we’re not certain about publishing. LotR has a vicious copyright gang.
Hehe. It’s been fun. I don’t know how clear this is, but it’s a satire on multiple aspects from authors to tendencies in fantasy tropes. The fanfic side is part of that, so we’re definitely twisting the…[Read more]

Enid replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year, 1 month ago
My characters tend to be blurry, yeah. Some more than others. If I’ve drawn the character before, then I’ll picture an version of the drawing, just in motion. A lot of the time I just picture the motion itself, abstract, or a roughly scratched drawing. Just realized I see 70% of my charries as animated, not real life. XD
Also because…[Read more]

HighScribe replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year, 1 month ago
I do not. I can see vague impressions and shapes, and I can know what their individual physical attributes are, but I can’t put them together into a face in my mind. It’s weird. Idk if it’s normal either.
I can picture the faces of people I know, though.

@anyone
Here’s a weird thing I realized while reading the portals story and I need to tell someone. Do you guys actually picture your characters’ faces in your minds while you write them to the point where you could recognize them if you met them irl? Because I have no idea how to do that. I can picture details like facial expressions or…[Read more]

@whalekeeper YOU SHOULD! That would be so cute!

No one will know those characters cause I haven’t talked much about them yet but they’re awesome.

Keilah H. replied to the topic Portals: When My Story Ate Me in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year, 1 month ago
@elishavet-pidyon That was really good!
The funniest thing is, you are writing a LotR fanfic but in a way that no one would actually say, “Oh, it’s fanfic!” It’s a complete twist of the rules! Quite brilliant really.
Funny enough I always kinda assumed it was a LOTR fanfic that turned into its own thing, because the names o…[Read more]

FIREQUACKER replied to the topic Worth All the World in the forum Novel Critique Requests 1 year, 1 month ago
Do you have any additional feedback after having read the whole thing?
What Sara said about adding in the other siblings a bit more. Most of them I couldn’t name or differentiate. Granted, I can barely keep track of my own siblings. XD
I loved Easton and Autumn! They’re so sweet and loving, and I can totally imagine them as grandparents…[Read more]

hybridlore replied to the topic Worth All the World in the forum Novel Critique Requests 1 year, 1 month ago
To be honest I loved them together. Autumn is so sweet and godly and her and Easton’s relationship was so … sweet. (For lack of a better word. 😂) I loved how he was willing to see past her disabilities and treat her like a princess—wheel her chair around, dance for her, carry her on his back, etc. And she was such a wise voice and encou…[Read more]

FIREQUACKER replied to the topic Character questions in the forum Characters 1 year, 1 month ago
I need to think about the fear responses.
How long would your character survive the zombie apocalypse?
I’m tempted to say they’d all be fine since they don’t seem to have much in the way of brains…XD
Ryla would try to feed them baked goods instead of brains and would die.
Ardon would probably die trying to protect Ryla, but if he…[Read more]

Well thanks so much for skimming it! I’ll take a look at the comments. May email you a few things after I do! Yes, I have a playlist. I’ll email that too.

Honestly! You two need this published!

That had been fun. Viktor helped Hugo order their samples into the box the teacher had given them, listening with a distant smile to the conversations around him. It was nice to listen to the other two boys talk and know he could join…[Read more]

Eekers! Well, I’ll head over there then. I should have checked, considering you were on the RP thread. *taps nose* *poofs*
