Yes, I think it works best as as scene that Chara remembers instead of putting it in the beginning. Maybe when Chara is at the “bottom of her self-reliance ability”, she can think about how stuff like this always happens to her and have her flashback to give an example. Then to make her background clear and make Chara appear as a…[Read more]

You know you’re a bookworm when you read a book in a day, and then wish you hadn’t read it so fast, because now there’s nothing else to read.

Maybe for the magic tricks you could do something like this:
<insert name>–Porta
For the second one I’d suggest Kore-Porta, but I don’t have any ideas for the other ones o_o
Could you describe the trinkets in more detail?

@epicaddie2 As much as I would love to join… I’m currently trying to save my coins for other writerly things. (laptops and conferences and retreats) So…I’m going to stick with KP. BUT HAVE A GREAT TIME YONDER!

@supermonkey42 @perfectfifths @whoever
Bonus points and my undying respect to those of you who can guess these:
Two characters on the telephone:
Character 1: “I’ll be there in an AAAAAAAAAA…!”
Character 2: “In an ‘hour?’ I can’t wait an hour!”
Second quote:
“Dynamic deduction!”

@emily-d Tell me about the characters! I love hearing about them. What kind of world do they live in? What are their personalities like? How old are they? That way I can give you a story idea based on the characters and the world they live in 🙂

Haha sorry about coming across as wanting to give stress to poor Chara. I have a habit of stressing out my own characters, especially at the beginning of my stories where I need to kickstart the plot so that was just where my mind went. 🙂
The problem I had as a reader was that I don’t particularly feel a need for Chara to change,…[Read more]

Hi. I’ve read your opening. Chara is a very relatable character (since I have height issues myself) and the part where she got blown back was very cute and funny. I think your story has a lot of potential to be a nice, relaxing and refreshing read amidst all the overdramatic and fantastical plots nowadays. A realistic “journey”…[Read more]

Medieval: Knights, tournaments, castles, swords, minstrels, chivalric romance. Not to mention serfs and primae noctis.
Dark Ages: The Plague. Lots of filth. That’s pretty much it.
OK, to be serious, I think most periods in real life history that are referred to as a “dark age” were actually preceded by rather advanced civilizations. But after…[Read more]

Hmm… Personally when I find myself writing stories which I do not like even though it starred characters which I loved, the problem was that I was taking a plot-driven approach when a character-driven one would have been more appropriate. I was too fixated on the idea of certain plot events happening (a fight, a confrontation, a…[Read more]
