I agree that you should make sure that your sources are reputable. You can use Wikipedia but you have to be a little more active in your reading to tell if things are reputable or not also you should check in the talk section. Overall Wikipedia works better as a…[Read more]

@theloonyone @mineralizedwritings @lightoverdarkness6 here’s a drawing I made from a while back ago showing something of what they look like.

@loopylin Yeah, don’t use Wikipedia if you can help it. The “wiki” part means it is maintained and edited by ordinary people rather than some admin or a knowledgeable source, which means misinformation can get spread really easily on places like that.

@loopylin

I don’t really know much . . . I’ve driven through some reservations I think but never actually seen/met anyone. And like @keilah-h said, they do have their own government. I also believe they still carry on many of their tribal/religious practices.

I guess I would say the most important thing is to make it as accurate as possible so…[Read more]

Lyla

Before Julius could reply, a door leading into the hall opened quickly and two people stepped in. (@keilah-h what do they look like?)
The man had a rifle pointed at us. We all jumped up as he asked loudly, “Who are you?!”

I glanced over at Matthew. His eyes were wid…[Read more]

@loopylin

Oh cool! He’s trying to find the, uh… thing to the… place.

Good guess, it’s not what you’re thinking though. You’re close. 😀

hahahah I confuse people XD

@keliah-h @felicity (srry I cant remember if you’re in our group, I’m confused now lol) @lightoverdarkness6 @theloonyone @loopylin

I’m going to swap Tauren and Lesli in for Kaine and Everly, I’m not currently writing those two so they are a bit less fun to rp. So yeah, Kaine and Everly mysteriously disappear.

Tauren: 6’2″, 16 years old. Brown…[Read more]

@loopylin @freedomwriter76 @theloonyone @mineralizedwritings @lightoverdarkness6 Here we go. Correct group.

Feather and Crosshair

“We’ve been wandering for a while…the room didn’t stretch this long before….” Feather looked around warily. “An Icehunter tried to kill us last time Rinzler and I were here. I don’t see it…it must’ve froze…[Read more]

@loopylin @freedomwriter76 @theloonyone @mineralizedwritings @lightoverdarkness6 You were the ones with the group that I was going to join, right?

@theloonyone @loopylin @felicity @arien @starofthenorth @whalekeeper @lightoverdarkness6  sorry if I forgot anyone!

@esther-c

If you feel like reading, I suggest you go back into the forum and find the other chapters first 🙂

Keiryn stares into his empty cup.

“What now?” He glances at his watch. “I’ve got 3 hours to burn.”

“I’m going to head…[Read more]

@loopylin I’ve been in a modern reservation, but didn’t actually meet anyone while I was there. They have their own rules there while still under the US government, I think….?

@loopylin I did, don’t worry!

@loopylin

Yeah!

I thought most of it was teenage angst too, which tbh, I was tired of. It’s all over the place in public school. So I figured I’d ask people about it, and I’m glad I did! Not to say none of it is teenage ansgt, I don’t know if it is, but I’m glad to get to see some of the deeper reasons people write the way they do.

@loopylin yea, there will be quite a couple dream scenes in my series due to the fact that Ara has an ability relating to dreams/visions

@loopylin totally understand, and backslashes can definitely be overused!! I tend to enjoy using them in the castle as ways to show/write scenes that might appear in my actual books but in the actual books themselves, I agree, but they can be powerful when used in the right way.

Love what you said about the quirks and showing the abuse and…[Read more]

If you are ever traveling to Washington D.C. There is a Native American Museum there that I found really helpful/interesting.

@mineralizedwritings @koshka @godlyfantasy12 @loopylin @esther-c @felicity @lightoverdarkness6 @starofthenorth @anyone else

I agree with what you’ve been saying, so I’ll try not to be redundant . . . I would say, definitely don’t write explicit descriptions of the “real” magic in this world, the kind of demon-possession and occult witchcraft that…[Read more]

Great topic! Let me go check my playlist real quick . . .

Okay, for Elinor, I think Metamorphosis II, a sad Scottish fiddle tune called My Nanny O, and “Life” by Ludovico Einaudi fit really well. I know, they’re all instrumental, but I find…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings @koshka @godlyfantasy12 @loopylin @esther-c @felicity @lightoverdarkness6 @anyone else I forgot

I think the content of what you write really depends on your maturity level more than what’s right/wrong. Also the things that you as an individual are tempted by. And I think it’s a good principle to only write what you are…[Read more]

@loopylin

I totally get you, girl. But you don’t have to apologize to me 😊! Lol, yeah! Well, now you’re not held back! 😂
