Thank you! <3
Lol yeah… I’m taking college chemistry and I’ve never had a in depth chemistry course before. I mean I knew what electrons were…?

Lol he’s embarrassed by your immaturity? 😂😂
XD yes! I listen to the lofigirl synthwave radio 🤩 I used to listen to the normal one too, but I like the synthwave better. But tbh, I can’t listen to it for more than 2 hours a day because it’s a little too much.
I still do not have a phone, and everyone else in the homeschool group does…

yeah let’s make up a villain!Or maybe we just throw them into a mind games labyrinth they have to escape together? XD maybe it needs a key but you have to find the bad guy who will give you the key?

@trailblazor
Yeah that makes sense! When I’m by myself, I’m a lot more attentive to safety/my surroundings than when I’m with somebody else, and that takes a lot of mental energy, so yeah the busier the store the more overstimulating would make sense.

*Shrug* 😅 I have five younger siblings, a sick mum, and late high school anxiety, so… yeah.
Oh wow XD You’re the oldest? That’s a full house lol
I just feel frustrated with my place in life, where I know I could do more if I was in a different environment. Don’t get me wrong, I love my family, but we’re not a naturally academic lot,…

That is such a Tauren joke, oh my goodness 🤣🤣 Sweet child, he definitely needs that line in your final draft!
XD I’m glad you like it!
Right 😊 Lots of writing only sounds good if it connects to your inner turmoil (for lack of a better description 😂). I did not cry, but I could relate to that unsteady feeling of life changing, and a…

I might change this chapter I’m not sure…. but it’s just some of the writing I’ve been doing this November!

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic Naming Chapters! in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year, 2 months ago
I tend to name chapters based on the lesson learned or progress to character arcs. For instance, instead of naming a chapter on the physical things that happened (visiting the bakery) I would rather name it based on the conversation the characters had at the bakery (Such as… “If you only understood”)
Hope that helps 🙂

That’s so cool! It obviously makes sense to happen, but it must be strange looking back and reading into yourself like that. In a good way, of course! 😂 So much to learn from.
yeah, really strange!
It’s also fun when your younger self surprises you with something really well written, or a good joke 😂 Because now that you’re in the f…

I just realized something so interesting about my wip and I have to share it XD
Ok so I was rereading my first draft for fun, and weirdly enough the emotional descriptions are better than most of my current writing, but the plot is a total mess with no direction.
What’s weird is that the whole vibe of my first draft is…[Read more]

Yes Bucky def needs more fun 🥺🥺
Yw. XD
Sarah does seem a lot more stable than Yelena 😭

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic Talking about are Fanfics in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year, 2 months ago
I actually agree Bucky and Sarah is cuter XD
Yelena has such a strong personality compared to Bucky I’m not sure it would really work.

<3 yw!
I would try doing a black outline on another layer, then selecting the little checkerboard box (idk what it looks like in your program, it’s usually a checkerboard. It’s the one that makes it so you can only color on what’s already there) If you have that selected, you can use a brush too change the color of the outline,…[Read more]

Hmm… the overcoming problems too easily really could be a problem. Something that I think would help is making the problems in general take up more space. A characters struggle should snowball as a result of their own bad choices, which reflect their major flaw they hope to overcome. The general problem should not come up quickly…[Read more]

I love your coloring style! It’s kinda… ethereal?
I think the lineart is fine for your style, but if you wanted to change it I would recommend using a pen and trying to make the whole thing one continues line, instead of having the sketchy kinda “feathery” lines. There’s nothing wrong with the way you’re doing it though!
I would…[Read more]

Current wip word count is just over 20k! I’m a lot more organized this time, and I’m confident it won’t just turn into another do over 🙂

Oh, good for you!!!!!! I had 23K on mine…but then I decided to rework the plot and change some things…sooo…now I only have 16K 🙁 but just give me a week and I should have it back to 20K, lol
Thanks!
Nice! Yeah… I get it. My first draft was like 48k I think but it just wasn’t going anywhere and I didn’t plan well so I ended up scraping the whole thing 🙁
I know the feeling, I’ve done that so many times! And then one of my friends read my first draft and said it was like a published novel…and I was like….um….no….
XD sometimes a short body of work could seem published… while the bigger picture is a total mess 😳

Thank you!! 😁😁
