also I hope this all made sense)

I think it did.

Fanart is either: “WOW! This is so cool and I made it my Lock Screen!” Or… “Ew. Why did someone make this?”

IKR????

It falls into four categories for me. 1, “This is cool.” 2, “This is really not in character but I’ll accept it anyway cause it works.” 3, “This looks….…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

That’s when you can say they’ve got a bad idea of who the character is. They’ll hyperfixate on one aspect of a character and make it everything, whether it’s good or bad. Draco Malfoy hesitates to do one bad thing, and everybody thinks he’s the hottest antihero alive. A character gets upset for a moment, and suddenly they are the h…

I’m sorry to take the discussion off theremins, but I got a rant.

It’s about characters, and how their fandom treats them. As you guys now, many of the fandoms I’m into have fighter characters as the focus. Soldiers. Mercenaries. Rebels. Warriors. All that kinda thing. Which makes this aspect of fandom more annoying: some have the tendency to…[Read more]

@whalekeeper oh I just saw a picture of a robot playing it lol

Random facts about theremins that I yoinked off Wikipedia (I think one is playing in the music I’m listening to right now! LOL, what a coincidence.):

• It’s named after its inventor, Leon Theremin.
• They used to be called Aetherphones.
• They were actually the result of research to make proximity sensors.
• The sound was once described as “a…

@whalekeeper You have a theremin???? That’s so cool!!!

ngl I used to be really scared of its noise, it’s so weird. But now I kinda like it. It’s used a bunch in the Loki soundtrack, which I think adds to the temporal thrill kinda aspect of the show.

@elishavet-pidyon awwww! She’s cute!

The branch looks okay in my eyes.

Impressive that you did that with watercolors!! I might show off my watercolor paintings later. My brother and I are doing a weekly watercolor class.

@ellette-giselle those are great quotes!!

Chapter 24

Hallie walked into school, gripping onto the straps of her backpack. Because of all that had gone on recently, she hadn’t gone to school for the past few days. But by Thursday, Mom declared it time to get back into the normal rhythm of life.

How can anything go b…[Read more]

@theshadow

Okay, I’m all caught up (also was gone for a while), and this is a really engaging story. I did feel sad when Tyler was gone, so good job there, and I like how everything is going.

Thank you so much!!

A few things, I’ve noticed you used something along the lines of “(Character’s name) hated…” to describe what they were feeling, so…

@theshadow

Lol, five might be a little generous XD

HAHAHA

one of them was likely stolen from Scout.

@ellette-giselle ok thanks!

@ellette-giselle I was just about to tell you I haven’t caught up in a while. Which chapter was the last one I commented on? I should be able to get to it today or tomorrow.

@ellette-giselle thank you!!

I always try to ask before doing that kind of thing these days.

@ellette-giselle you’re welcome. Mind if I take the meme to post on my youtube channel on the 4th? They might find it funny.

@ellette-giselle PEAK MEME LOLLLLLLL

I love that.

now, to prevent Soldier from deciding the cookies are for him and eating them all (and getting sick afterward)

Also on the first person thing, it might work, but it also might throw everyone off, y’know? It really depends.

@rae

I think his passion is what made him the best fantasy author. If Tolkien didn’t love writing, and didn’t love the story, then it wouldn’t have been a classic. It wouldn’t have been published at all.

That’s exactly what I’m saying. He wrote great stories because he loved writing so much, not because his ability was somehow greater than other writers.

@rae

I’m one of those perfectionists who wants to throw their stuff in the trash everytime they read it just cuz it isn’t as good as Lord of the Rings

I know you’re joking, but has nobody thought about the fact that it must’ve either taken Tolkien like 5 drafts to get it perfect, or he was just the exception to the rule and had everything str…[Read more]

@rae @ellette-giselle I’m glad you guys were able to work something out!! I’ve just self-published every time I finished a book, but I have a book on writing and it talks about how to get a publisher, and I was like “wow, this is…..really complicated. Do we really need to do all this?”
