Oh, like with the Peanuts?

XD  No. It’s a Disney cartoon that has just two seasons. It has fun characters and a really well planned out story with a good ending.

It’s about two siblings, Dipper and Mabel, who go to their great uncle’s (gruncle’s) house for the summer. Their gruncle lives in Gravity Falls, a tiny town in Oregon where…[Read more]

I meant hypothetically, if a girl was open to dating, those things wouldn’t push her away.

ok, yeah, you’re right.
I remember being confused when my old school friends had crushes on very annoying, trouble making boys in our class.

@whalekeeper

YES, this. I’ve tried to explain this to some people and they don’t get it for some reason.

I think people tend to forget that humans are irrational. We don’t always do things that make sense. So writers try to rationalize their characters’ bad behavior by giving them tragic backstories.

(Maybe? Idk, just a theory)

@whalekeeper

Like Gravity Falls! (Have you seen it? It’s the best) You never even see the parents’ faces.

I’ve always liked your characters, and I never knew anything about their past. They’re interesting enough without that 😉

Awww thanks :]

I also like emphasizing in my stories the fact that people don’t need trauma or terrible tragedy in their lives in order to struggle with sin. Everyone has problems to overcome, even Average Joe with his calm, happy, suburban childhood.

@jonas

Yes, that does make sense, thanks!

So when they they don’t have backstories, that just means they’ve led a normal, unremarkable life up until the start of the story, right?

@whalekeeper

Yay! That’s great! I took a nap yesterday and I remember hoping that you were resting too.

@rae @whaley

Ngl, I think you should be asking, what girl would not want to date him?

Uh, not me. Though he does have cool knives and a cute dog dragon so I guess that’s a plus…

I have a question @anyone

Do characters actually need backstories?

I mean, I love writing them. Tragic backstories of course (in small doses), cheerful backstories with fun family dynamics… but I’ve realized that very few of my characters actually have backstories.

Eddie and Ellie, for example, the MCs of my Paper Stars story, have literally…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

I love these so much!!

And Marcurious is officially the favorite of mine of your charries now. 😆

@whalekeeper

Oh no!! Strep is horrible! I’ll be praying for you! ❤️

Fynn

He laughed. “You got it! What we were doing didn’t make him happy. Him, as in the Reprimor of the people. There’s not much to the government besides him and his soldiers. But we’ve made it so far. We might be fugitives of the law but… who’s really keeping track?” He flashed her a playful smile, tilting his head.

@savannah_grace2009 @freedomwriter76

Wow, y’all, my charries have it made compared to y’all’s.

…

😂😂 jkjk, they just have different struggles I guess. XDD

@jonas

Yeah, I think that would help, thanks!

I get most what is going on with the stones and the dragon I think, I suppose it’s mainly the setting that I’m unclear on. It’s one of the characters worlds right?

@savannah_grace2009

Ok XD

Actually, now that I think about it, I think I’d rather read it through Reedsy or another platform. Because the only Google account I could use to comment would have my last name with it, and I’m not comfortable sharing that. 😊 I’ll still tell you my thoughts, just through KP. 😉

@rae

Praying that your symptoms won’t get worse and that the measures you’ll taking will do what they’re supposed to do. 🙏
