I know people who love that trope as well as people who hate it! Haha.

But it can be really good if it’s written well.

Is there a book or movie that you read/watched that pulled this trope off particularly well?

@mayajoelle

@leon-fleming

It’s been a while, but is this still an issue?

If it is, I can look into why it isn’t working and try to fix it.

And if there are any other technical difficulties you are having, feel free to let me know and I’ll get ’em fixed as soon as possible!

@leon-fleming

Alright! What’s been going on with the language? Did I miss anything? Anything I can do to help? I’m tired of speaking English. 🙁

@leon-fleming

Okay, what about this? The main character creates two different universes. In one universe, the love interest helps him become a better person. In the other one, the love interest dies, and then he just continues down a downward spiral into evilness. Evil James goes to the other parallel universe and commits a crime (preferably a…[Read more]

Not sure why I’m only finding this forum page now, but better late than never!

Okay, so here’s the first thing that popped into my head after reading your premise.

I really like the idea that every time he time travels, he is making an alternate universe, and not really changing the past.

But I think a cool way to take advantage…[Read more]

@merieshenanigans

I usually draw new characters, but my goal is to be able to draw characters from my novel. The reason why I haven’t yet is because when I start, they don’t look like what they imagine them in my head, and give up. XD

*grabs a pencil and shakes it with determination*

But one day I’ll draw sketches of the characters in my novels…[Read more]

@michelle

But that’s what writers do! Notice the small but fascinating things in the world that most people overlook.

Being strange is what writers do best.XD

@leon-fleming

Funny enough yes! I was able to dream about my fictional worlds.

Only occasionally and after many efforts, but when I did the world ended up being a lot more…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

I loved to make up worlds when I was younger as well. (Still do to this day actually).

But when I was little I would envision worlds with as much detail as possible as I fell asleep hoping that I would go there in my dreams. The world was almost always a fantasy world where I was a princess about to go on a perilous journey.…[Read more]

@leon-fleming

*blinks* Woah. That is quite the process.

@merieshenanigans

I will join everyone in saying, WELCOME TO THE FORUM!

Sorry if that was too loud, I always get excited when someone new joins. XD

You like to draw as well! What kind of things do you like to draw? For me I love drawing characters from movies, dramas, tv shows, etc. but I also like to make up my own characters from time to…[Read more]

@michelle

What do you think makes Jack especially realistic?

I really want to figure out the reason why some characters feel like they’re alive and others feel as real my pet unicorn.XD

@leon-fleming

Yes, characters can be both realistic and UNrealistic in two different ways.

A character can have supernatural powers that make them unrealistic but also have a well-written character full of depth and heart that makes them realistic.

Some books I’ve read the characters feel like they’re just puppets being controlled by the…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

I didn’t even think of those kinds of scenes, but I can definitely see why it’s your favorite to write!

It kinda sounds psychopathic but, for some reason, high emotion, and panicking scenes can be really fun to write. XD

Plus, I also like how you learn a lot more about the characters and see a side of them you didn’t see…[Read more]

@corissa-maiden-of-praise

Yes! I’m glad someone gave plot twists the appreciation they deserve! I love stories that keep you on your toes. I mean, if you already know how the story is going to play out from the beginning, then what’s the point of reading it?

What story has your favorite plot twist?

I too have the same struggle of not knowing…[Read more]

@allisongrace

It’s hard to say what my favorite SW saga is because it’s been forever since I watched the originals, and the only prequel I was able to sit through was The Phantom Menace. (Sorry if any of you love the prequels, I just couldn’t stand the cringy dialogue and the CGI blinded my eyes.)

That being said, I guess my rankings from least…[Read more]

@leon-fleming

It makes a lot of sense that the poet in you is the part of you that takes pleasure in writing descriptions. Poetry can take seemingly simple things like the environment around us and put it through a new lens and make it into artwork.

I have so much respect for people who can do that well.

You can’t talk about great descriptions…[Read more]

@leon-fleming

Who doesn’t love a good plot twist!

I don’t know a lot of people who really enjoy the description of stories. Is there a particular reason it’s one of your favorites? And which authors do you think do description the best?

I haven’t read the book Pride and Prejudice, but I have watched two film adaptations. Why do you ask?
