Not-So-Secret Secret Assassin started the topic I Have Returned in the forum Announcements 1 year, 8 months ago
A fortnight ago, by happenstance, I stumbled back upon my old, abandoned village here in the Kingdom of Pen. As I gazed upon the empty landscape, run-down buildings, and the sun sinking into the horizon, something wasn’t quite right. In fact, there was something terribly wrong. The same feeling you get when you go on a roadtrip, and then wonder…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76 Lol wait till you learn about Linear Algebra (though you probably won’t, that’s my cross to bear).
Aww, thank you for the prayers! Yeah, nah, my friends are like that to me as well, except even more harsh, though I know it’s cuz they care about me.
Yeah, can’t wait to talk to you more too!

@felicity That sounds really good! I’d love to try it someday!
@lewilliams Eyyyyyyy there’s that familiar platypus profile picture! Good to see you too! Life is. Kind of a roller-coaster, I have a really busy semester ahead of me and I’m not sure how I’m going to balance writing with it, but we’ll see. How are you?

@power Eyy love to see that you’re still here! One of the core tenets of the forum.
@booksandbeakers Oo that’d be exciting!
@folith-feolin Eyyy Lovecraft is definitely something else! He has beautiful prose!
@felicity Nice to meet you! What are some of the desserts you make?

@sarafini Yes! Stories definitely get easier the more you do. Hey, novelettes and novellas are impressive! I’ve done very few of those.

@loopylin I believe horror has supernatural elements whereas thriller is more of a crime thing, like the difference between a ghost and a killer. The premise of your story sounds a lot like Bendy and the Ink Machine, but I would totally read it!
Aye, I believe you can also finish a book one day!

@loopylin Hey there! Another Lin! Yeah, Alice in Wonderland is definitely on the surreal side and is One of The Books Of All Time. Oo, you do horror too? I have some half-written short stories that try to be a bit on the horror side, but I feel like a lot of mine edge on thriller instead.
I do have several finished books, but nothing published…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings Lol yeah it’s something similar to Alice in Wonderland or something like that, where nothing makes sense.

@esther-c Whoa, that’s really long! I really struggle with writing long works, lol. I always barely meet whatever word count I want them to be.

@esther-c I’m pretty sure it’s a word, lol. Yeah, the family drama was always really emotional for me.

@mineralizedwritings Absurd comedy is basically a type of surrealism where the comedic part comes from the ridiculousness or unlikeliness of the situation. I’ve seen some great shows that are like that, but I’m not too sure how to implement it in writing yet, fufu.
@booksandbeakers Nice to meet you! Your WIP sounds quite interesting! Does it have…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 She’s tearing apart the WIP, haha. Looks like I’ll need to rework a lot of it.

@gracie-j I love the vibes from it! (Currently my sister is tearing it apart so I could use some encouragement…lol 🥲)

@mineralizedwritings Wow! You’re good at drawing! And your WIP sounds quite interesting, though I don’t think I want to live in that world, haha. I prefer giving critiques in Google Docs, so if you ever send it in that format, I’d be glad to look at it!
To be honest, I feel like most of my “slice-of-life” plots are full of just drama and sadness,…[Read more]

@esther-c Whoa, I love that aesthetic! The life of Jonah would be really cool to see, since it’s so vague what is given in the Bible! I’d love to see someone’s interpretation of it.
I’m not really one to write Biblical fiction, but the only one I’ve ever really wanted to write was the story of David and Absalom. Every time I read it in the Bible,…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings Heya! Nice to meet you! Did you draw your profile picture? It looks very cute. I’d also love to hear more about your WIP at some point; I don’t meet many dystopian writers.
I have been writing for maybe around seven years? I write a lot of different things, usually fantasy, but also crime, slice-of-life, sometimes sci-fi… I…[Read more]

@sarafini Nice! I’ll most likely be working on my current crime novel, because right now I only have like 2k words and I really need to jumpstart it (or at least get more of it done than I have now if I wanna finish it on time) and probably some short stories here or there. How many books is your series going to be?
