Hi! I also struggle with turning off my inner editor when free writing, it’s one of the reasons I’m finding it so hard to write my sequel now that I’ve finished my first book. Swapping back to creative writing from conscientious editing can be really hard.

That being said, I’ve found that when I get new ideas for the story, they’re…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Nice😁

Hi @elanor !

I love your name😊.

As to your questions:

1. Definitely skydiving, cause I think it’d kinda feel like flying, and you’d have such a beautiful view, and then get to glide down with a parachute … without a jerk at the bottom that’d probably make me feel sick.

2. Absolutely, why not?

also, @keileh-h, I love seeing your drawing…[Read more]

Oh boy, I knew the name of his planet as well😂 I just didn’t think about it until you pointed it out

I know right? @keilah-h

Hunter’s relationship with Omega🥰.

I really wanted Crosshair to join them again at the end, though. Was kinda sad when he didn’t 🥲

Where did you gain a love of dragons from?

Are you a fan of that Wings of Fire series (the one that has dragons on the cover and is all about dragons?) I keep seeing it in bookstores, but…[Read more]

I absolutely love all you art! @keilah-h

And that picture of Rex you drew without tracing is soo good! And I love the dynamic colours on the Clonewing Rex!😄😄

We all need the Obi-wan Kenobi Dragon Legend!

I think my favourite clone from Bad Batch is maybe Echo. Or Tech. I enjoy the two as a duo😁

I love long answers. I always write them myself😅😂 @jodi-maile

Out of interest, how old are you? I’m 18

@keilah-h

YOU’VE READ THE WINGFEATHER SAGA TOO?!😁😁😁

*ahem.*

I love your drawing though, it’s gorgeous! There’s no shame in tracing things, my sister does it all the time and her drawing are lovely too! And I like how you made him a dragon-human-clone. A Dhrone?

And I got so attached to the clone troopers too!🥲😊 That scene in the season final…[Read more]

Hi @issawriter7 😁

Hi, Issabelle!
I’ve also read the False Prince! (Though I haven’t got round to rest of the series yet) It gave me some ideas for my novel!😊 There’s a huge question in my WIP about who’s the ‘True Prince’ and who’s the ‘False Prince,’ both sides believing opposite things, obviously.

Thanks for compliments about the art and piano…[Read more]

Adverbs. Like happily, cheerfully, sarcastically — especially on dialogue tags. I thought this made my writing more beautiful and descriptive, but then I learnt that you should use string verbs and nouns instead of adverb and adjectives, where you can.

Like, for example: “I can’t believe you betrayed me!” Tom said angrily. If he’s saying tho…[Read more]

Hi @jodi-maile 😁! It’s great to meet you!

My ocarina is also a Zelda-themed Ocarina of Time. It’s dark blue with the Triforce emblem on the mouthpiece guard. I think it’s epic you have a whole collection of them! Don’t you just love all the ocarina tunes from Ocarina of Time? My favourite tune to play is Song of Time, and my favourite tune to…[Read more]

Thanks, @kathleenramm 😊

I taught myself to draw when I was little, it was my greatest passion before I got into writing. I watched a lot of YouTube tutorials by a guy called Mark Crilley to get me started, and then gradually practiced more and more, using how to draw books and stuff. I used reference pictures to create the Arslan image, obviously…[Read more]

Hi, Jodi! Nice to meet you! XD

Yes, I do have a WIP! It’s a medieval fantasy story that I’m about 8K through. If you want a synopsis, I could probably dig it up. 😂

Um, I’m not sure. XD I guess because I LOVE reading and when I was 8 or 9 I was like: I have my own ideas, I need to write them!

@scripter-of-kingdoms Here’s some more of my art😊

Hi, @sarah-anson

I love your idea of making clean manga! I would also love to do this with my WIP novel series too!

And your drawings are soooo good! I love the mask on the first guy (or is it a tattoo?) And the pose of the third one with the girl makes me feel so wistful and mysterious! And the coloured one is just downright gorgeous! Love how…[Read more]

And second:

This is a design for one of my characters that I’m working on. He’s nowhere near finished, though😅. I’m hoping to have a whole section on my website (when I manage to finally crack down and get it web worthy to put up) devoted to art of my characters. I think that’d be fun! Have you guys ever done stuff like that on your websites?

Hi there everyone! I’m a new manga/anime artist on the forum, and I thought I’d share a couple of my pieces.😊 I have a lot of trouble staying on track as an artist, because I’m always writing instead, but these are a couple of my works:

First:

This is fanart from the Heroic Legend of Arslan.
