I’m sorry to take the discussion off theremins, but I got a rant.

You’re fine, carry on lol.

some have the tendency to baby the characters, to dumb them down, especially the ones who have some kind of issues with some aspect of themselves.

I think there’s a difference between literally thinking the character is like that, and just m…[Read more]

Aw, what a fine little gray lady <3 The colors look very natural.

@keilah-h

I didn’t know about the robots. I’ll have to look that up.

ngl I used to be really scared of its noise, it’s so weird. But now I kinda like it.

The moment I heard the noise, I was obsessed. I knew I had to incorporate the music and technology into some kind of magic system. 🤣 So here I am, spending much of my writing time looking for a…[Read more]

Yeah, it is pretty cool!! Almost nobody I talk to knows what it is, so I’m always explaining. XD Thank you for the names, by the way, Ruth and Kefa!

So how did they accidentally invent it?

Leon was a Russian inventor who was actually trying to invent devices for wartime. The instrument was…[Read more]

Happy Fourth!!!

@whalekeeper

Wow, I just watched a video of someone playing one and that is so cool.

@ellette-giselle

Yes, I sympathized with him. Poor guy.

Yeah, I emailed you. 😅

@ellette-giselle

So does everyone else at the base know… you know.

@ellette-giselle

I love Michael. His explanation was believable and so sweet. 😢

Chapter 24

Hallie walked into school, gripping onto the straps of her backpack. Because of all that had gone on recently, she hadn’t gone to school for the past few days. But by Thursday, Mom declared it time to get back into the normal rhythm of life.

How can anything go b…[Read more]

@theshadow

Okay, I’m all caught up (also was gone for a while), and this is a really engaging story. I did feel sad when Tyler was gone, so good job there, and I like how everything is going.

Thank you so much!!

A few things, I’ve noticed you used something along the lines of “(Character’s name) hated…” to describe what they were feeling, so…

@ellette-giselle

I have read them. 🙂 I’ve just been gone at a friend’s for the past couple days and haven’t given myself time to respond.

I want to rant about theremins. >:3

A theremin is an electric instrument invented accidentally in the 1920s. It is played without any physical contact by the performer. Two antennas create electromagnetic fields, and the performer waves their hand around the antennas to manipulate pitch and volume.

Finding a theremin is hard because there…[Read more]

I’m reawakening this topic because I’m putting together a list of magic system questions for myself. (Felt like updating my world bible.) They will be posted here when I’m done!

@theshadow

Nice to see you back! (Ha, I know I’ve already talked to you, but still. ;))

I’m not sure I’ll be able to commit to another full project right now, but I might pop in occasionally. So glad you were able to figure out some more stuff this time around, though!

@ellette-giselle

Of course! XD

Also, you hit 4,000 posts!!

@theducktator

Oh no. Praying!!

@rae

You’re not alone when it comes to getting easily distracted.

Should I write Farewell in first person?

Hmmm, can’t say. It seemed straightforward enough in third person from what I remember.

I finished all the short stories, but I didn’t give you feedback for all of them I’m afraid. 😅

@rae

How’s the editing going so far? I bet you’re super tired by now. XD
