And how’d your writing sprint go? (I would’ve joined you but I was busy eating dinner. XD)

@savannah_grace2009

I’ll be praying for you!! I totally understand not having motivation. 😅 Right now, I have a lot of momentum, but about the last two months, I didn’t get much writing done because I just kept procrastinating. 😬 I wish I could give you advice, but I don’t think I really have anything expect make yourself write. XD Because that’…[Read more]

Sooo… I wanna share the first two chapters of my NaNo WIP, because, in my opinion, they turned out pretty well for a first draft. 😂 So here ya go! (Don’t mind any grammatical errors. 😁)

Chapter 1

“Amir!”

   “I’m coming, Maman!” Amir’s little feet padded into the room. He jumped onto his bed and ferreted under the covers. “Story time!”

Hedieh

Hedieh’s eyes lit up as she watched the two men begin to fight. Wow, this escalated quickly. Fighting didn’t bother her much, but with these two, it could be much worse than a good-hearted duel.

She glanced down at an old sword lying in the corner. Just in case, she reminded herself, trying to igno…[Read more]

AAAAA YOU MADE MY DUMB DOODLE YOUR PFP

That makes me so happy 😊😊😊

Felicity

Felicity had lived most of her life in a big city, but it had never been anything like this. The streets were clean, the buildings were colorful, and crowds of people chattered and laughed, unafraid of each other. Felicity spun in a slow circle as they walked, smiling up at the clear sky.

“Are you going to the dance with L…[Read more]

@rae

Ooooh, I’m going to have to read all these charrie backstories you posted and post some of my own later. Looks fun. 😏 And I have a character who has some dark backstory, just have fleshed out all the details yet.

@jonas @rae @highscribeofatherium @acancello @savannah_grace2009 @trailblazer

Ok, so I think I’ve caught up with everything now. XD

(I’m most active during the afternoons, so I think I miss it when y’all are most active. (: )

Oh boy, Hedieh’s at the forge. 🫢 That could be dangerous.

And for swords/weapons and such, in Amir’s actually story, he…[Read more]

Lol I love that Calligrapho is mistaking Dante’s impulsiveness for intelligence hehe

Dante

Shopping? That’s what this was all about? He truly didn’t understand why anyone bothered going to school if this was what it was like.

“By the way, however did you know that fire unstuck pixie glue? And how did you not get burned?…[Read more]

Nice! Would this actually count as a full short story? I couldn’t detect any full plot, but maybe it’s there. One piece of advice my writing teacher gave us for our short story assignment was ‘make sure you write a short story and not just a scene.’ Putting aside whether it counts as a short story, it’s a really good snapshot/scene at least.

Dante

“How do you know I’m not enrolled here?”

Calligrapho raised an eyebrow. “No offense, but you don’t exactly look like a student.”

Dante looked down at himself. His clothes were dirty, his feet were bare, and his shoulder was scratched up and slightly bloody from the night before.

He chuckled. “Fair enough. Yeah, I’ll stay wit…[Read more]

@janellebelovedpig @hybridlore @acancello

Thank you all so much!! I’ll definitely keep it all in mind. (:

@whalekeeper

This is a really neat idea!!

Here’s a few of mine: (some of them are kinda similar to each other or are from the same character)

• Accepting the fact that you’re not perfect and you don’t have to be
• Learning that you don’t have to please everyone
• Standing firm in what you know to be true and right, even when those around…

Dance party turned dragon-slaying quest I love it

@rae

Lol that’s awesome! Thanks for the summary! Wasn’t this originally supposed to be a dance party thing?

@jonas

Alright, how many people are spying on us lol?

We’re always watching…

XD

Yeah, I was just commenting, but I definitely appreciated the recap. It sounds like you guys are having fun.

@whalekeeper

I have been wondering the same thing.

O_O

They’re over 100 pages already!

@whalekeeper

Cool topic idea! (Again)

I really struggle with simplifying my characters’ arcs/development into a single phrase or sentence, but here’s some attempts. (I wont say which characters they belong to)

• overcoming guilt/living like someone who is forgiven
• letting go of anger and bitterness
• overcoming fear of the future/ the…

Dante

“Uh, Dante. Tucker,” he said, unsure if he was supposed to add more, or if his name was sufficient enough.

He glanced around the crowd once again, but only met strangers’ suspicious stares. He turned back to Calligrapho and gave him back his jar.

“That’s a bit of a long name. Mind if I call you Cal?”

I needed to contribute to the memes…
