I haven’t read any backstory snippets for Fel. 🤨
Nah you’re okay, I love teasing too. Take one more snowball, madam. 😜

I know at least one person hit me with snow, so I wrote this just to cover all my debts.
Bast set the basket of cookies next to the old man’s armchair. There were surely more chores to do, but there wasn’t…

…Stuff…
You’ve read snippets of it before I think.
Sorry for giving you a hard time about keeping secrets and then turning around and doing the same thing, lol. You’re just very fun to tease 😛

Ah, but what happened to Fel?

Loopy replied to the topic Snowball Fight! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 weeks, 4 days ago
I second this. Don’t.
Yeah, actually, sorry I brought it up at all. It’s super dark. I just find government conspiracies interesting. But I forget there are younger people on here sometimes so please just ignore that.

But I’m happy with that
And that’s exactly why some of my characters are just chill and happy. There’s nothing less deep about having an average backstory. I can think of some characters who are super shallow because the writer thought trauma equals character depth.

Felicity probably has the worst backstory of my characters, but it comes no where near as bad as those. But I’m happy with that

Sounds like an interesting story. Reminds me of MK ultra stuff (pls no one research that if you’re sensitive)

Honestly I don’t know XD I told someone I wasn’t going to post the words I wrote because they were too depressing, and it kind of escalated from there.

I would prove that the Lovedream children have darker pasts, but it’s not worth spoiling the whole thing unfortunately. XD My apologies. You’ll just have to take my word for it.

I like it! A little Ender’s Game, a little something else. It’s giving dystopian. 💁♀️ I’m usually not sure how to react when people explain backstories since it’s out of context, but it sounds like pretty solid trauma, especially for a whole group of protagonists.

@anybody
I created a mock cover my Christmas short story! I’m not 100% in love with the title, so it might change. Once I have some alpha readers give me their feedback, I’mma share it on here for y’all to read! But before then, here’s the cover to intrigue you. 😋

@hybridlore
I added my second draft of the short story to the document! I’m mainly looking for feedback on character, plot, pacing, and prose. Especially parts that seem preachy, repetitive, or seem like I’m info-dumping. I’m open to any feedback and thoughts you have on it, feel free to tear into it and be nit-picky! XD If you catch a gramm…[Read more] -

That’s pretty much how I picture Baron too. Powerful, but not the best teammate, at least for now.

@rae
Alpha need a lot of perspective reorientation. Actually I have a close friend who once reacted to a puppy in a very similar way, haha 😝 He even used the word scrawny.
@ellette-giselle*Sticks out my tongue at you* What is your most traumatized backstory then?

whaley replied to the topic Snowball Fight! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Okay, now it’s a challenge. Post what you wrote, and I can almost certainly top it.
Honestly, even writing down the bare facts of the backstory might be too graphic for people. It’s necessary because the end of the story is a reversal of the beginning, kind of like that flash fiction I posted a couple pages back.

Okay, thank you so much!! I am so sorry I completely forgot about it after KDWC shut down 🤦. I will try to check it out later today!
No worries at all! I only added the draft into the doc today, so you aren’t really forgetting about anything. 😝
