@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Fullmetal Alchemist is so good! I was just thinking about it this morning, haha…

@kathleenramm Something similar to that; In Silver Spoon, by the same author as FMA, the main character Hachiken Yuugo has a pretty compelling backstory. At the start of the series we see that he’s come to farming school as an escape,…[Read more]

I personally think that Edward and Alphonse from Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood had a pretty epic backstory (it was pretty epic) one of them lost an arm and a leg, and da other lost their whooole body (it was pretty bloody and epic, if I do say so myself)

They also have blonde hair, and as a blonde hair user myself, i must say I can…[Read more]

@typewriter77

Interesting… veeery interesting.

Well, I aaam obligated to hold up my end of the bargain, well this may come as a shock to you but…

I’m actually an assassin.

(Don’t worry I haven’t killed anyone yet  ever -I’m a pacifist-)

Don’t be confused it’s normal in the assassin community.

Also, this is top secret so don’t let this get out.

@mkfairygirl Ah I should sleep now… Got 525 words so not bad, not bad. About halfway there.

@mkfairygirlThanks! Good luck to you too!

@mkfairygirl I’ll try to finish this chapter before I go to sleep!

@typewriter77 Well, are phrases like “she ran like the wind” or “the apple of one’s eye” or “it was a dark and stormy night” copyrighted? Often these things become clichés because they are so frequently used. I don’t believe that three words like so would be exactly plagiarism. However, if you were truly worried about that, I would study sentence…[Read more]

I’ll be around writing for maybe sometime if anyone wants to say anything.

Anyone on to chat? I’m just doing random author things. 🙂

@seekjustice Thanks for keeping this going! <3 I’ll be sure to hop on more often. 😉

@seekjustice Awesome! I’ll be sure to hop by often!

@seekjustice

As much as I love complex backstories, I totally understand what you mean by big-bad-powerful villains. They feel so strong and powerful like if they say they rule the world, you’d believe it.

Because they are so much more memorable. And it forces the protagonist to grow and become stronger to defeat them.

@ribbonash

I love what…[Read more]

@gracie-j

So much yes on character who don’t feel like they were solely made for the plot! Those are my favorite kind characters whether they are a villains or any other type of character.

(Oh, and your not the only one who had their day made by the Shrek joke by @not-so-secret-secret-assassin haha. XD)

People don’t talk…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Ey, thank you! I love them!

@joy-caroline Could I request two covers from you? For two story collections…

Title: Flowers Fell Like Rain

Elements: Falling flowers, fell flowers

Title: Long Live the Night

Elements: Nighttime

Thank you!

@e-k-seaver I signed up yesterday! So excited! 😀

@typewriter77 Well, I’m afraid that I’m the type of person who doesn’t know what their own theme is until someone explicitly tells them. I’m that clueless and unprepared, usually. And to me, usually in good literature themes are hard to pick out clearly, but you can feel that it’s there.

I think that each scene and character could show a facet of…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

Whoever was the villain of Shrek.

I haven’t watched it yet though but I’m sure he is preeetty epic.

@typewriter77

EPIC.

Now tell me your deepest darkest secret. (then I’ll tell you mine) 😉
