@madelyn I enjoy it when I’m not crying, heh. Which I think can be said about anything.

@kathleenramm Yess they are extremely, extremely good.
@libby Ah, recently I’ve started to appreciate sci-fi more as well! Kinda want to start writing a sci-fi story in the future…any tips?

SeekJustice replied to the topic What's the harshest critique you've ever received about your writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 2 months ago
@kathleenramm I love this question!
This most difficult feedback I’ve ever received was on my little novel that I wrote when I was 17 and am still working on to this day. It was consistent feedback from the three people I’d picked to review the third draft and they all pretty much said the same thing, that I didn’t know my characters and that my…[Read more]

@maryg3 Microsoft forms works too if you would like.

@maryg3 Just search up “google forms” and you should be able to do that. And no, I don’t have any other ideas as of now, sorry.

@kathleenramm Probably someone said that the ending to one of my novellas was contrived. Lol. Maybe it was, since I was making it up as I went along. The person had reviewed one of my short stories favorablely, though, so probably I just need to work more on editing.

@maryg3 Hey, awesome! I’d love to read it, but unfortunately I don’t like putting my email out in public places. Could you perhaps make a Google form or something for us to input our emails into? That’s what I would do, anyways.

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Add new ideas in now or later? in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
1. To be honest whenever I come up with new ideas I just add them halfway through and then later go back and add them in the beginning. Saves a bit of time.
2. Totally! Usually my chapters are 6 and a half pages, sometimes they’re 13.

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Tense Choices in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
@sparrowhawke Yee a lot of classics use first person peripheral, actually! For another work I was debating between first and third and finally settled on first person peripheral. Pretty happy I did.

@sparrowhawke Greetings! I remember Blimey Cow vaguely from years past, but since a while ago I have not watched them. Twenty One Pilots I do love, as well as The Emporer’s New Groove.
Your name sounds familiar; are you on Story Embers as well?

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Tense Choices in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
@sparrowhawke I am a big believer and an astute follower of third person past. First person only occasionally, and always in past tense. Sometimes second. Been trying out peripheral first lately. But yeah, no, I don’t like first person present.

@madelyn Hey there! Nice to meet you!
I think a good book is something that makes me feel something (no, not cringe or anger or absolute regret or anything like that) but one that makes you think about it long after you close the pages.
Full-time career? Well, I’m currently studying computer science, so…

Doing class on Zoom means I am continually thinking up new aesthetics to do. I’m starting a new aesthetic set for some of my bounty hunters, here’s two to begin with:

@gracie-j THANK YOU I’m glad you like it! I was bored lol and I haven’t made one in a very long time.
@writerlexi1216 Thanks! It’s probably one of my favorite titles of my stories so far. And thanks! The palette I love a lot.

@kathleenramm Yes, tons! All my faves at this point are classics, haha. Probably East of Eden by Steinbeck and The Brothers Karamazov most though.

It’s been a while since I’ve made an aesthetic for anything, haha…here’s one for my latest short story.
