I do bullet points and make sure I know the key points, the beginning, climax, and end. Then I graph out my characters. Other then that, I don’t do too much planning as long as I have a solid plot idea in my head.

My older sister used to raise rabbits!

we raise silver fox rabbits!

I had an allergy to beef for a while, so we started raising rabbits for meat. Though, now they’re basically pets.

@ellette-giselle

YESSSSSS!!! We convinced you!!! 🙌🙌

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I can’t wait to see the new scene! 😁

having hybridlore on the protection squad is scary! Why did I ever tell her about it?

Because you wanted me to kidnap all your characters. MWAHAHAH.

@hybridlore   @koshka

okay!! Fine!! I give in.

I’ll rewrite that whole scene tomorrow.

y’all win.

*slams down pencil in despair.*

it actually won’t hurt the plot much, and you are actually making sense.

fine. I’ll do it.

they go free. Both of them.

I can’t believe I’m doing this.

@koshka

*graciously accepts confetti and medal* Thank you, thank you very much.

@koshka YES. Thank you.

@ellette-giselle

Good 😂 Sounds like a lot of fun. I don’t do as many aesthetics as plotting boards, I think pretty much everyone on here makes aesthetics and it seems to be a huge motivator.

I’m cleaning because my aunt and her boyfriend are coming over, and my room is the guest space. Last week my truck driver grandpa slept in my pastel themed…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I’m the dangerous one? You’re the one with like, a 50% character mortality rate. 🤪 I feel sorry for your characters.

@hybridlore

Yes you are you little…. little…… I don’t know what you are.

Dangerous person.

@whalekeeper

Lol. I’m having a great day. Having a lot of fun plotting my next book and building character boards and aesthetics.

@ellette-giselle

WHOOHOO!!!!! 🥳🎉

@hybridlore

Oh good grief.

I’m gonna do it.

I’m gonna save him.

Eric’s gonna live.

How on earth did you get me to do that?

I can’t believe I’m going to do this.

You are dangerous.

@ellette-giselle

Haha

I vote give the character whichever ending highlights their unique story/perspective the most. For some characters, that’s a dramatic sacrifice. But there are lots of differences in characters, so I try to give each character their own ending, lol.

Ignoring that discussion (since I’m guessing you’re over your head in the…[Read more]

@whalekeeper Glad you’re enjoying it. (I’m this close! 🤏)

@ellette-giselle

Lol. I am? 🥲

@ellette-giselle

Yeah. That makes sense.

Like the Imperial officers would just stand by and let him.

I know, but he could at least try. I think it would make his death more meaningful and give a bigger impact. But it’s up to you.

@whalekeeper

She’s the first person to ever get me to reconsider killing a character.

Also @ellette-giselle @hybridlore I just saw your character death intervention and I’m quite entertained by it. 😂 Y’all are feeding the #savethecharrie movement. People on here never change.

@hybridlore

True. I’m not denying that he isn’t young. He’s just not shockingly young. Especially in that age and culture, he’s considered a man and could have a family and kids.

Eric is still a kid in there eyes.

And no, i can’t change the age because i’d have to do rewrites in the first book and I don’t want to. lol. plus, that makies him…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yeah, good point. Is there a way you could adjust his age, or is that set in stone?

Hmm… yeah, it could still work as a wake-up call, even if Asher’s not that young. To be honest, nineteen is pretty young to be executed though, especially if he (a.) wasn’t a soldier that betrayed their country, like Adrian, and (b.) has a young…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Hmm. I guess I was trying to cross over the LTBL goal into this without clearly stating that. It’s hard, because Joseph has a tendency to lean toward a survival mindset (no one can really blame him) and the story is his POV.

UGH, I can see the Eric thing both ways. I could still use his almost death as a “wakeup call” and it…[Read more]
