@denali-christianson I’m glad I’m a relatable person! 😀 Sometimes I think I’m just in the corner doing wack and setting things on fire while all the other writers have their lives together.

@denali-christianson Heh I haven’t had this much stimulation on the forum for ages. For years. I can tell we’re going to have a fun time! In a non-threatening way, of course. *added exclamation mark to sound less threatening*

Oof haha sometimes I get lazy over things but never enough to like, stop doing it. I’m usually overcommited and will stick…[Read more]

@denali-christianson Yes.

UhhhhhhhHHHHHHHH I know @e-k-seaver and @daisy-torres have made book trailers before. If I were you, and had zero budget and wanted to make live action, then I would use like a free stock video site like this one: https://mazwai.com/#/grid (I’ve seen one of my favorite artists make a lot of beautiful music videos using…[Read more]

@denali-christianson *yeets off to Story Embers forum to do some stalking*

*yeets back*

Yep.

Called it.

@denali-christianson I think I’ve given up on worldbuilding at this stage in life, for all my projects now it’s either like, “What generally fits the vibe of this story” if it’s something short or casual, or, “What would make sense in the story and help me achieve the goals of my plot/character arcs/themes” if I’m being serious and hardworking, or…[Read more]

@unsung

Same for the photoshoot, and the fact that I don’t think I look very good.

(I think my little sisters have those!) Well, usually I procrastinate on what I should be doing, then school and duties take up most of my time. I don’t have a lot of irl friends, tbh, so I will usually spend real free time writing or planning things for writing…[Read more]

@unsung, me too. It’s actually the result of an association I have with a girl names Melina and my saying “cool lima beans” then having it changed to “cool Lina beans” by a mutual friend.

Ohh, fun! I have ideas for pictures/photoshoots/artwork, but none of the skills to actually bring them to the light of day.

What is your favorite pastime…[Read more]

@unsung, ok, cool Lina beans. (You can if you want. I’ve it set so I get an email, even without the tag. 😉)

It is a pretty great plot idea. I have lots more that I don’t have enough writing time for, haha. 😅 I’d share them, but I might use them if I try write an article for Kingdom Pen or something.

@unsung (do you want me to stop tagging you?)

I do to! I’m just pretty bad at learning them, and I don’t really have any way to.

Haha, yeah, definitely. Yeah, cool. I kinda like the idea of intentionally using a cliche but making it super interesting. For example, I have an idea for a pretty cliche villain, but there’re good reasons for why he…[Read more]

@unsung

Thank you! 🙂

I do, and I think if I did, I would start with learning Dutch, then move to French or Spanish or both, and after that I’d try to learn Italian and/or Elvish.

Have you ever intentionally used cliches? I’ve been thinking about how to use cliches but use them really well, and not have them be bad things.
It’s actually fun, and…[Read more]

@unsung, I will admit, it is pretty fun. 🙃 To just imagine and make up in my head and to write. Aww, heh, thank you. I do try. 😊

Fun! (That’s still cool, and very nice of your brother.) lol

@Denali-christianson You don’t have to add other skin tones etc. if, say, all of the characters in the story come from the same place. Look at how the world is separated. Yes, in America and a bunch of other places there’s mixed ethnicity all over the place, but for the longest time the light-skinned people were mostly concentrated in Europe,…[Read more]

@denali-christianson Trust me, he doesn’t deserve it. I mean, if he becomes a good guy later in the show (which is extremely unlikely) I’ll be like “That guy? Really?” but maybe I’ll forgive him a little. He’s just…Selfish. And he left his most loyal follower/lackey to die, and then NOT AN HOUR AFTERWARD destroyed the city the aforementioned…[Read more]

@denali-christianson All righty then! Also, sad for who? Him or me?

Is it ok if the characters on here are from fanfics–like characters I created for a specific world that wasn’t mine? Or do only original characters count?

Also, the thing about the outer ramparts…. Funny story, there’s a villain in one of my favorite TV shows whose last name is Rampart (I have no idea why), and whenever I hear the word in…[Read more]

@denali-christianson Lolol precisely why I write, so I can put some new things out onto the market.

Heh it’s okay I stopped because I graduated :3 You should savor your high school activities while you can

Haha this is the first time I’ve like met people who’ve enjoyed my writing online. And now I’m resisting the urge to plug a self-promo.…[Read more]

@denali-christianson

LOL YOU’RE WELCOME XD Haha I literally felt that XD I’m only good at fantasy language  and LATIN I’VE LEARNED LATIN AND I LOVE IT lol I should try to learn some others…

Eh.

I’ll stick to Elvish.

I’m not good at anything besides English and Latin, and the language I’m trying to make up but is unfortunately for a different…[Read more]

@denali-christianson

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! That is actually pretty amazing. (I WISH I HAD THE SKILL TO MATCH MY LANGUAGE OBSESSION, but I’m the sort of person who’d love to learn all the languages in the world, but can’t because I just can’t learn any languages. 😭 I have learned Latin, and I know English, but besides that what I know is…[Read more]

(Is this like a line by line role play, or a scene by scene role play sort of thing?)

My character named Sofia enters. (She could use some development, everywhere, lol)
