Felicity

@the_lost-journal I heard that word and could only think of a quote from a character I used for a fanfic. This is him introducing himself in his canon work:

Hey look, buddy, I’m an Engineer. That means I solve problems. Not problems like “What is beauty?”, because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve…

(if you were reading something like Fifty Shades of Grey or Twilight we would be having a totally different conversation)

OOOF NOOOOO NOT TWILIGHT

There was one good thing about it, and that was the fact that even my trashiest works look like masterpieces next to it. And they’re at least pretty much…[Read more]

“What are you doing here?”

“Catching bullets, apparently.”

This is why Jayson is so awesome. (Did you just shoot my boy?)

“Filthy German!”

My character Dr. Humboldt would take offense to that. If he were here, of course, which he’s not because I don’t let him anywhere near the computer.

lol but if anyone can be described as “filthy German” it’s him. He’s nice enough sometimes, but he’s also a mad scientist and has done some nasty things to…[Read more]

@power

Oh. Oh my. That’s kind of concerning in a “I definitely don’t need one of those” way.

@ellette-giselle

Eeeeeeepers. Yeah no. I’m with Helmer on hights; they’re tolerable, but I’ll die with my feet on the ground, thank you very much.

XD

@ellette-giselle

True, true. I think I can claim my paralysis gloves though (although that was inspired by some medical stuff).

(No? But I was cringing inside and wide-eyed)

@ellette-giselle

Oh my. No, I’ve never seen that.

I stole the idea from my brother, who has also never seen that.

@rae lol was the dog’s tail whirling like a fan?

@linus-smallprint

I need to read Little House on the Prairie again. –you

First off, why? –Ellette

yeah that is a little random. It’s somebody’s memoirs and doesn’t seem to have anything to do with your story……

thank you for posting and thus distracting me from wasting time on random TF2 art blogs and gawking at how cool other people’s tenth class ideas are

but yeah, anyway. I recently decided having ten classes kinda throws off the divisible by three thing the original nine had, so I was like “WELP, TIME TO MAKE TWO MORE FANCLASSES” lol

I…[Read more]

@theshadow I knowwwww

@esther-c yeah same. That happened to me once. The main character of my current WIP has the same name pronunciation as one of my cousins (different spelling though)

Fortunately I haven’t interacted with this cousin in like a decade so I don’t think she’ll be too offended about a name similar to hers being used for a character if she ever finds out.

@linus-smallprint wow!!

also, I’m not sure if you’re referring to Alan or Rour, but I think neither of them went too far. They both are wrong about something and think they’re right, and as such it’s messing with their minds.

@mineralizedwritings Just something I pulled off Planet Minecraft (a pretty reputable mod website)

It’s got the nine characters from a shooter game I like, and they hunt mobs for me. (They also have a penchant for randomly insulting them……lol)

I also have the Halo texture pack on.

ahaha the bundle update? I haven’t used them yet! Gonna…[Read more]

Leo

“I know.” Footsteps in the distance clicked faintly in his ears. A buzzing radio signal flared nearby. The security team no doubt. Leo looked at Rory, eyes narrowing. “You ever climbed a brick wall?”

He took the Kid’s wide eyes as an answer. Leo leaning against a classroom door as he fished around for the master key. Two…[Read more]

For all you ladies on here, there’s an online camp that runs every few months, set up sort of like our little kingdom here to help encourage writers and help them reach a goal. Before camp you’ll set a goal for yourself (writing ## chapters/scenes/blog posts/words/etc.) and try to reach it in that month. You’re a part of a tent of about 10 or so…[Read more]

Yayayayayayyyy!

I’ll definitely be posting on here this weekend!!

@ellette-giselle

Oooh, I like it!! I could definitely feel and experience what Jonathan was feeling and going through.

The only suggestion I would have would be to eliminate some of the passive voice (“The floor was sinking…” “…his brother was on his hands and knees…”). It will tighten up the prose and draw the reader in more.

But that’…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Thanks for reaching out, Kefa!! I’d love to chat some more!! 🤗

Hmm… my WIP…

Well, I have a few, but a couple of those have been put on the back burner for now. They were mostly ones written while I was trying to figure out my genre. Which, I’ve decided, is probably gonna be contemporary young adult fiction and histori…[Read more]
