Just so you know, it seems that you have that google doc set up as view only. It would probably be more useful if you had it so that we can make comments, but that’s up to you.

Marcurious is between 16 and 18. I haven’t really figured that out yet haha!

Interesting chapter!! I like it!
oh, and I really loved this:
“Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t kill you right now,” the Pythonos pressed the bloody knife to Marcurious’ throat.
Marcurious coughed. “Because I am just so amazing,” he flashed the Pythonos a smile.
One question… how old is Marcurious?

It’s completely fine, no rush on how fast you give me feedback! (: I understand we all have lives outside of writing and KP xD
I can get started on giving you my opinion on the excerpt I saw introducing Marcurious tomorrow perhaps.
Actually, I would prefer if you gave your opinion on the first few chapters of my WIP and kind of go…[Read more]

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Magic Systems!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 8 months ago
Yeah, that could definitely have some unique impacts. That being said, I feel like changing the mass kind of defeats the idea of the mass shifting. It definitely could be a related ability, but perhaps those would could use the two powers in tandem would be a more rare bunch.
I guess it would probably make the most sense to have…[Read more]

Gahh!! I was experimenting and playing around with present tense and now my brain gears are jamming now that I’m trying to do past tense again! It looks so wrong GAAHHHHH!!! XD

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Hello, Humans! in the forum Start HERE 2 years, 8 months ago
My problem with reading epic fantasy is when I start, I can’t stop, and my sleep schedule becomes thoroughly messed up. Last time I read an epic fantasy book, I read six hundred pages in a span of less than 24 hours and got about 4 hours of sleep…
Lol. I can’t stop either. I got all four books of the Stormlight Archive for my bir…[Read more]

(he coined the terms hard and soft btw).
Really? Huh. I didn’t know that. I feel like I’ve been aware of those terms for a super long time, but I didn’t read any of his books until last summer.

Jonas volunteered Riina first, obviously, but if that doesn’t work out, Saoirse might be able to get him to dance. She’s still skulking around.

You and I are the only ones who have RPed recently. Idk what to have happen. If this RP us to get back on its feet, we can’t be the only ones trying. Someone, help!
You haven’t gone in a long time.

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Magic Systems!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 8 months ago
That’s fair! I think the system has potential, though I do think it needs more of a mechanic to it. A version of telekinesis is cool, but what really sets it apart from normal telekinetic power? There’s the restriction to only cinders, and there’s some specific rules, but I think there could be more of a unique mechanic overa…

It’s possible Riina could do it, but he did throw a knife at her head, so…
It’s possible that that could motivate her to humiliate him, but only if she had reason to think it would work. I’ll try to come up with something. We’ll see…

IS THERE ANY WAY ONE OF YOUR CHARRIES CAN GET OL’ JUNIOR TO ACTUALLY DANCE?!
Idk, I think being awkwardly pulled into a dance would humble him a little XD -

I discovered Alpha’s greatest fear (I’m very proud of myself).
At first, Alpha, to me and to my charries, seems fearless. Sometimes he also seems heartless (like the time he almost murdered a doctor because the doctor obeyed orders…[Read more]

Okay…someone invent a time machine so I can go back to when Riker was a boy and take him away before all that happened, then I’ll do it to Fin too, and Hans…
Then you’ll do it to Chase, and we’ll be good!

Just…don’t do present tense.
Y?
Cause it usu Sounds weird.
Typos ignore
Cause it sounds weird? Was that what you were saying? After a bit, your brain shifts, and you dont even notice it. I like it with first person, as long as it isn’t just for no reason.
@jonas I personally LOVE doing first person present tense, but not third person present. Because I switch both tenses and person, I often have no problem with my brain gears.
Yeah third person present tense is bad. I personally don’t care for present tense at all. I think of it similarly to second person narration.
@jonas @rae
I’m just gonna jump in on this conversation lol…
I also LOVE first person present tense…but I HATE…I mean HATE third person present…unless of course I’m writing a certain depressing short story about my life a couple months ago heh…heh….OH! I cannot STAND second person…*retches over the side of the bed* Like WHO in their…[Read more]
@savannah_grace2009
The thing with second person is that it implies that the reader is the main character, which means you can’t design your own character. One week in my creative writing class, we did have a 2nd person assignment, but it was a choose your own adventure story.
@jonas
I know! That’s the sad part…no fun characters ):
Yeah that’s true…haha!
This is the technical side to present tense. Present tense adde immediacy—it feels like it’s happening *right now.* This is really good in some specific scenarios, but there’s one major problem. It is hard to maintain, it’s exhausting to read something long in present tense. Second person should almost always be present tense, and first person…[Read more]
@freedomwriter76 I’m not saying it’s bad to read, but when it comes to writing…I like the big picture. Besides, I write from the POV of Ru Eis most the time, and since she researches the events, they can’t really work well for Present Tense. It’d be like Laura Hillenbrand doing present tense for Unbroken.
