Ethryndal

  • @Jane-Maree Yeah, I think what I’m going to do is set a couple of days (or weeks, or even a month) aside to really figure out where I’m going with this thing, and clear up all the “figure it out when you get there” moments. As Elizabeth noted, I think I’ve been pressuring myself to be perfect and get this sorted right away. Now I all I want to do…[Read more]

  • @Daeus That’s actually really interesting. I don’t think I ever considered how inter-related they all were, but now that you point it out, I’m starting to see the bigger picture of my story and theme as a whole. Because it seems to me like The Depravity of Humankind really is the core, with everything else siphoning off as more individualized…[Read more]

  • @That_Writer_Girl_99 Darling, you just single-handedly sorted out my mental state. You nailed it. On both counts.

    You’re right, I am expecting myself to figure this out way faster than is probably possible. There for a while, I thought I had everything sorted, so now that I’m suddenly lost again, I feel so… frustrated. I just want to FIX THIS…[Read more]

  • Hey guys. I’ve run into a problem.

    Over the past year or so, my story has changed drastically from what I originally intended—and I’m not even done writing it yet. I started out aiming for a specific end result, but as the story progressed, different plot threads would virtually appear on my page, helping fix certain issues, but also altering…[Read more]

    THAT WOULD BE SO EPIC. *envisions all the explosions* The dragon and the elf. We wouldn’t have any gifs to throw at each other though… I suppose we’d have to improvise. And yes, I’m in Maryland. I applaud your skills of observation. Is it too much to ask what state thou makest THY residence in?

    (You have no idea how much it bugs me that…[Read more]

    *salutes* Gotcha. Sector One is officially kept under my hat.

  • I’m probably going to regret telling you that…

  • @That_Writer_Girl_99 Sadly, that is also true. 😂 Though I’m not sure if you people have realized yet that you’re actually fueling aforesaid heartlessness… There is nothing more rewarding for an INTJ than being noted for their stone-faced psychopathic heartlessness. We take immense pride in it.

    If you really want to annoy us, call us cuddly…[Read more]

    True, very true. And no matter how many names you may have, you will always be a Kid as well. 😀

    (And yes, your elvish is mostly correct. Mellon actually has two ‘L’s, but I’ll overlook it THIS ONCE… 😛 See how merciful I am?)

    • 😐 That’s me. The wonderful, wild Kid. XD If we ever meet in person (which we have to do, anyway. You’re in Maryland, right?) then I’ll call you Galadriel and you’ll call me Kid. *watches building explode in dragon fire and glitter*

      (I never claimed to be fluent… Melons are tasty though.)

      *is in awe of the mighty, merciful @ethryndal )

      • *hides beneath 10 days* Sorry it’s taken me so long to respond to this. I’ve been seriously busy.

        Anyway…
        YES I KNOW IT WOULD BE SO AMAZING!! I make my residence in the slightly more southern state of Virginia.

  • @Dekreel *buries her non-poetic head in pillow and groans* I’m working on it… 😛

  • @That_Writer_Girl_99 *contemplates all the INFPs she knows* That’s… sadly true. I don’t know how you guys survive.

  • @Dekreel Oh honey. I feel ya. I’ve been dealing with self-doubt myself over the past few months, and the conclusion I’ve basically come to is this:

    You can’t be better than your best.

    We look around at other people’s writing and beat ourselves up because we’re not as good or as ambitious as them, but we can’t even remedy the problem because[Read more]

  • @that_writer_girl_99 I’m not even going to ask why DYING was the first thing your mind came to… I’m sure it’s some strange INFP thing that I probably don’t want to know about.

  • Ethryndal posted a new activity comment 6 years, 9 months ago

    Yeah, yeah, don’t get used to it. Sometimes INTJs have an identity crisis. It takes them all of 0.05 seconds to remember who they are and that they don’t hug people.
    You do realize how strange this is for me though, right? Is this what if felt like when you learned that my real name WASN’T Ethryndal? *hyperventilates on the floor* What is life…[Read more]

    • It was pretty weird, I’ll admit. I was like… wait. Huh? Is that her real name, or is that her pen name, or is that… ??? XD

      *pats shoulder but does not dare hug you* Worry not, melon (is that the elvish word for friend??) at least I’m still a dragon.

      *melts chair*

  • Aaaaaand this is why I need to start being more active around here again. I miss stuff like this.

    WOOT FOR YOU, @That_Writer_Girl_99. I can’t believe it’s been a whole year! You’ve been a grand addition to our little circle. Thank you for letting me snark at you and beat you up for not liking Lord of the Rings. Bantering with you has been a…[Read more]

    HA! HAHAHAH!!! This is the third time someone’s told me this, and words cannot express the sheer emotion that floods my soul every time.

    I HAVE REDEFINED GALADRIEL.

    *pumps fist* My villainous master plan is already beginning to take effect.

    (And is… is that… is that your name? *hugs the dear sweet Danielle kid*)

    • @ethryndal *claps* Bravo! You redefine green elves, and I melt chairs. 😛

      (Yep, I’m Danielle. 🙂 That’s me name. *stunned* Did an INTJ just hug me? 😛

    Shucks, I’m gonna miss you around here. Ah well, God knows best. I can’t wait for you to find out where He’s taking you. So long for now, my friend. You’ve been a wonderful addition to our Keeper circle, and we’re going to be sorely lacking in bright colors and dinosaurs without you. 💕

    I’ll be keeping up to date on all your platforms. 🙂

  • Ethryndal posted a new activity comment 6 years, 9 months ago

    Aww, I was just thinking about her the other day. She was the first one who welcomed me when I came on here as a scared little elfling, and it was the warmest greeting ever. Say hello for me. We miss her.

  • @Dragon-Snapper Is this problem arising in the current story you’re working on, or all of them as a whole? Because child, I’m almost finished reading your book, and I honestly don’t know what you’re talking about. If anything, I was going to say that you need to focus more on the emotion, not less. Is this a response from beta-reader feedback, or…[Read more]

  • @Catwing Sorry for not being your friend… *apologetic glitter*
