Yup. Sure is, and the funny thing is, if you told him he was being prideful he’d look at you like you were crazy. He thinks that he’s a failure at the moment, and he’s not realizing that this stems from his pride.

@linus-smallprint

This is a realistic reaction from Aaron. He sees himself as a failure and has suddenly had more responsibility shoved on to him than he thought he would get. He does not feel ready and hides, lest he bring down others with him.

Yes! And, (spoiler kinda) he’s unintentionally beginning to see himself as Ardenta’s savior which is…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

but she will refuse to read anything I write until I improve my grammar.

Do I know what that’s like or what! lol.

I can’t say to much about this at the moment, but for now, know that this is nec for the story.

Ok…… I trust you.

Maybe.

@keilah-h @theshadow @whalekeeper

k, here’s a new part.

@calyhuge @otherworldlyhistorian @thearcaneaxiom @linus-smallprint

Apologies for tagging y’all. Hope you don’t mind. I’ve started employing the advice y’all gave me, and I wanted to see what you fella’s think before I go any farther with it. Does Aaron still seem like a guy. I mean, would…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

This was great!!!

Suspicion: Alan’s father can control himself because he’s actually one of the Faithful. (Just a thought.)

Oh dear…… man…… I don’t know what to say. I mean, the grammar in there…… well some of it’s a little painful. lolol. I think I’m dso sensitive because I am bad at grammar so I’m always…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Ah, good. I was just about to start breathing down your neck on this. haha.

@thearcaneaxiom

This is great! You gave me a good picture here! That scene with Simon on the water and Eden in the water were my absolute favorite!! OH MY GOODNESS! They were amazing! With all the help I have gotten here and on my WIP I must say that if Aaron does not turn out there perfect character it’s because can’t write. lol.

Thank you…[Read more]

@calyhuge @otherworldlyhistorian

Oh wow, this is so helpful! Thanks so much!

(I’m curious what scene y’all read. The full battle scene, or the aftermath one? Or both?)

I will tell you it feels like it’s a real guy, and it feels like real war, and I think what you had him do so far is what a guy would do

That’s a relief! Just getting you to s…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

ok, his hair length. It’s not going to be like Aragorn because Friedrich has lived in the palace his whole life. His a strong guy though, and kinda doesn’t like all the fancy stuff. (His servants have quite a time forcing him into royal uniform. lol. His hair would be neatly cut, and a little on the shorter side, (about chin…[Read more]

@anyone

This might sound really weird, but I have no idea how to write girls. Sure, I can write emotions and stuff, but they usually become copies of each other personality wise, and even weirder, they aren’t copies of me. Estelle, Nae, Narsa and Ilsa are basically the only girls I’ve written who feel unique. Help?

@ellette-giselle

As you know, I’m not a guy, but I do like to write guys and I have two brothers (technically three, but he doesn’t count)

Just as a tip in general, it helps to think about the roles God made a man or a woman to fill. Woman are the emotionally unstable mothers, while men are the factual, rational fathers who keep the wives from…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I’m obviously not a guy, but my advice would be to find a happy medium between those two extremes. (Unless he actually would be on one end of the spectrum). Try to think of him as simply a character. Keep in mind that he’s a guy, but don’t get so caught up in that that you give him a reaction that isn’t consistent with his per…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint @ellette-giselle

This is a great topic! Maybe instead of just focusing on gender differences, it should extend to different personalities too? I for one would be interested to hear other people’s descriptions of how they process things and react to circumstances (and how it relates to their personality) even if they’re also…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

But Turin and Edwin died.

I’m just telling the story.

lol.

We’re a good two-thirds (?) through.

I’m not gonna change what happened to them. That would change the whole story!

I’ll look back and try to add some fun scenes with Turin and Aaron…. if I can find an appropriate place.

Glad he’s reacting well.

I like how all his…

btw, how does August 21 sound as a due-date. It’s two weeks from today.

@rae @theshadow @highscribeofaetherium @linus-smallprint @grcr @mineralizedwritings @keilah-h

K…….. after a long deliberation….. I think I have decided. I don’t really have any exciting fantasy characters, cause fantasy’s not my thing. I just have boring old normal people. lol. So, my character is:

Prince Friedrich!

He is the lead in…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Awesome! Thanks you! Glad this is coming off realistic.

@whalekeeper

Can I get some of those Ten guy’s tags from ya? 😀

@rae @theshadow @highscribeofaetherium @linus-smallprint @grcr @mineralizedwritings @keilah-h

Y’all ready for a character?
