I can’t say I can totally relate, but I think I understand what you’re talking about.

Maybe one idea is to create characters that are similar to a charrie in your main cast in one way. Just something small. Maybe only noticeable to you. I don’t know your story well enough to make a real example, but maybe a new side character could…[Read more]

NO WAYYYY!!! THAT’S SO EXCITING!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! 🥳🎉❤️

So glad all of us could be a part of your journey! 🥰

@freedomwriter76

Congrats on finishing your book! That’s super awesome!

Actually, I might not add Dante. Idk, should I?

Anyway, here are a couple other characters:

Felicity Frost: female, mischievous bright gray eyes, pale skin, long white hair braided down to her waist, very tall, wears plain old-looking clothes, always barefoot, spellcaster (I’ll explain that later)

Lois (last name tbd): male (yes, Lois can be a…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Ok! Is it only the second day?

I’ll add Dante cuz he’s easier to write, and maybe I’ll also add someone else later.

How far into the school are you guys? Is it too late for me to add a few characters?

@FREEDOMWRITER76

@freedomwriter76

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! THAT IS SO EXCITING!!!!! I”M SO HAPPY FOR YOU AND THAT”S AWESOME!!!!! YAY!!

Being able to write a book all the way through is hard! but you did it!! Congrats!!!!

@whalekeeper

Yeah, that’s the thing with mechanics, you can force it, so sometimes you need to take a break and come back to it. This doesn’t only apply to things like worldbuilding, but really everything. Math problems I struggle with for example seem to suddenly fit together rather simply if I take a week off from it.

@whalekeeper

Lol! Yes, I would greatly advocate templates if they weren’t abused as much as they are.

That’s awesome you had the same thought, it’s still a rather simple what if, because it is a simple inversion of a binary concept we encounter daily, but that alone can still lead to incredible worlds of a completely different nature, with…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Cool! Yeah, that’s pretty much what I meant, just what your plans were, and how you would approach it.

@whalekeeper

Yeah, if an iterative process like that works for you, then that’s an excellent way of doing it. It would help with refinement, allowing you to perfect the writing, as long as it isn’t too much revision that no progress is made.

If you want to make a strong cast, and your not worried of over attachment, then I would say it works…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yes! You’ve worded it perfectly Whale! It’s definitely not something you can control, I personally find it fruitful to just talk about it, and think openly with others, but my best ideas just kind of come to me randomly.

There’s ideas that could never be on a template, like: What if there was a world where light and dark switched…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Congratulations Freedom!!!!!!!

That’s amazing! Any completion of a book is a victory well earned, and you deserve it!

What’s your intent on publishing?

Hello anyone who sees this XD just wanted to let you know I’m going on a family trip today through Friday but then Saturday and Sunday I have a booth at an art festival so I probably won’t be on much. (I’ve been gone a lot recently, after this I should be able to be on more consistently) hope y’all are doing well!
 

@whalekeeper

This is a good point… multiple good points 😂 I would have to adjust any charrie in order to move them in, because I just have to stylize a charrie to that particular WIP, so they can’t belong anywhere else. But the thought would be worth it.

Aww thanks! Lol yes 😂

Ohh yeah that is a hard decision…honestly I’m struggling with the sam…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

This is something I’ve wondered myself for a while. Because any character I develop enough to be interesting, I suddenly want to follow as a lead character. For characters important to a story, I would once again go to the idea of mechanics. I’m not sure if you’ve seen that forum I started (I can link you if you want), but I go into…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I’ve been experiencing the same thing the past few weeks. Also for the past few days, the pages have been formatted weird again.

@whalekeeper

Could you tell me a bit about the characters that are already made and maybe the general story?
