@annabelle I have a younger sister, but that’s it, haha.

@annabelle Yess, plus with pen and paper it’s more transportable.

Wow, that’s a lot of siblings! Are you the oldest or…?

@annabelle Oh, nice! I was homeschooled as well. And I still hand write a lot of things, for some reason.

It sounds like you guys make a good team! How many siblings do you have?

@avacoulter Sounds like maybe you’re up for a novellette or novella, haha.

What other things are you into?

@annabelle Well, I am pretty old, so it matches up in proportion XD

Wow, does your whole family do writing-related activities?

@annabelle Nice, nice! I’ve been playing piano for almost thirteen years now, and my teacher assigns me classical music, but I like playing pretty songs I hear.

Do you have any other projects you’re working on, (or plan to work on) after Identity?

@annabelle Heyy and welcome to the Kingdom! I’m Linyang, though most here call me Lin. Nice to meet you!

Identity sounds fascinating! Are you going to be self-publishing it?

I also play piano! How long have you been playing?

@avacoulter I’ve written/am working on a ton of projects right now, short stories, web fiction, novels, novellas… I like short stories because they’re quick and you can have instant satisfaction of finishing them, but also I tend to only write short story beginnings and nothing else, which is annoying on my part, haha.

@avacoulter Yeah, I agree, there is a balance to find.

Do you write a lot of short stories or have you just been working on this main project?

@avacoulter Nice, nice! I like watching where my characters take me (since I’m a pantser too) but I think I like writing the ending most. It’s very satisfying, and also kinda bittersweet.

@kathleenramm I wish I knew that typing was more efficient than handwriting.

Thanks to choices my 12 year old self made, I am still handwriting a certain story to this day.

@avacoulter It’s probably the farthest I’ve gotten in a novel, actually, heh. I’m looking forward to writing the ending.

What do you like most about the writing process?

@avacoulter Oo, interesting! Dystopian stories are always fun.

One of my current projects is about a guy named Joey who works at an antique store, time, wings, existence, and memory. It’s a weird kind of story so I feel like a premise wouldn’t encapsulate it enough. It’s basically inspired by things and people I saw throughout summer.

@avacoulter Hm, I’ve written so many, it’s hard to choose a favorite, haha. Do you have a premise for your current WIP?

@avacoulter Fair, fair, haha. Any favorite stories you’ve written so far?

@avacoulter Hoi, welcome! I’m Lin, always dabbling in a variety genres, like crime/fantasy and other things.

It’s been so long since I’ve commented on any of the intro threads, haha. Anything in particular you wish to share?

@power That makes a tad more sense… No need to rephrase it again, people reading this thread will understand.

I suppose I am best at writing emotional snippets, usually quite sad and dreamlike. Not sure, though. Not many people have read them.

@power Bold of you to assume that I can’t both be a writer and a brontosaurus.

As for what I excel at, I can’t exactly tell you. The way your question is phrased raises a lot of questions in me. Why, what kind of writing do you excel at?

@kathleenramm Nope, only taken breaks. Because at this point I’ve invested too much time in it to stop.

@kathleenramm My second short story I was going to start. It was going to be about characters in a story who were going to be fighting these monsters at the end of the world, but they were kind of like actors in a movie setup with the Narrator as the director. The story would alternate between them inside the Story and their lives outside of the…[Read more]
