@ellette-giselle Yeah that makes sense with your photographic memory.

My memory sucks. Wanna trade?

@whalekeeper @elishavet-pidyon

That’s interesting. It’s fun learning how other people’s brains work.

Can you picture your family’s faces from different perspectives?

No. I can remember basic stuff like hair and if they wear glasses, of course, but the faces are really hard. At first, I can only remember a picture I drew of my dad once, my mom’s h…[Read more]

@anyone

Here’s a weird thing I realized while reading the portals story and I need to tell someone. Do you guys actually picture your characters’ faces in your minds while you write them to the point where you could recognize them if you met them irl? Because I have no idea how to do that. I can picture details like facial expressions or…[Read more]

@esther-c

Do you have any additional feedback after having read the whole thing?

What Sara said about adding in the other siblings a bit more. Most of them I couldn’t name or differentiate. Granted, I can barely keep track of my own siblings. XD

I loved Easton and Autumn! They’re so sweet and loving, and I can totally imagine them as grandparents…[Read more]

And @hybridlore

@savannah_grace2009 @theducktator @grcr

Thoughts on Easton and Autumn as a couple and how their personalities go together? I’m doing some character work rn and I’m wondering if those two actually are a good match… like if they would make a good married couple in the future….

@loopylin

I need to think about the fear responses.

How long would your character survive the zombie apocalypse?

I’m tempted to say they’d all be fine since they don’t seem to have much in the way of brains…XD

Ryla would try to feed them baked goods instead of brains and would die.

Ardon would probably die trying to protect Ryla, but if he…[Read more]

Reading everyone’s answers to this question is really fun. I should post answers for my own characters sometime soon.

But, in the meantime, a second question: How long would your character survive the zombie apocalypse?

(The first question is still open for answers, of course)

@grcr

Their story is inspired by Chinese fantasy… so… ancient China… mixed with elements of, like, Japan and Korea… and my own crazy fascinations.

That sounds really cool!

I just finished reading a Brandon Sanderson book that was partially based off of Japan and ancient Korea and I really liked that style of world building.

@elishavet-pidyon I posted a response in my profile because this topic was glitching out really bad earlier

@esther-c Characters still attend class and do normal stuff when their authors aren’t writing for them. They just fade into the background, not freeze in place, lol. Unless you want to write that they were doing something else that whole time.

If you want, I can give you a summary of recent events if you do want to jump back in

I might RP my characters soon, idk. I think they have pretty bad attendance at this point, lol XD

Does anyone here have Facebook? We could try contacting them that way. I think KP has an Instagram too.

@esther-c @keilah-h I bet we can get there before 2026. We just have maybe twoish more class periods and lunch before the dance.

@everyone would people be ok with making classes end early today to give the students time to get ready and to make the dance come quicker? I’m thinking one more class period, lunch, and then one last class.

Honestly, Slack would be a good option, I’ve used it for other writing groups and it works super well. The only problem is that the free version keeps messages for only 90 days, which could become an issue…

Ooh interesting first question! Let’s see here… For my current WIP…

Audrey’s primary response is definitely freeze. She just needs to stop, take in the situation, and figure out what to do, although her fears and anxieties often drown out the voice of logic to begin with. And then her secondary response is flight. If she can’t control or figure…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

I can help!! Characters are my favoriteeeee

*emerges from the dust and shadows*

Has the dance even happened yet?

Actually, I think there was a point in the drafting or planning stage that lowkey forgot Brandon existed 💀🤦🏻‍♀️🤣
