Otherworldly Historian

@godlyfantasy12

Wow, the nostalgia at seeing you post really hit me (I have been feeling really nostalgic recently (probably as a result of spending realizing just how much the robotics electrical freshman have grown since the start of the year).

Yea, Welcome back. Personally, I don’t really know much of what’s happening around here since I kind…[Read more]

Docs is my personal choice for writing software but that’s probably because thats what I’m used to. Until high-school I didn’t even have access to word since you have to pay for it and my county doesn’t.

I feel like word is probably a better software, from the small amount of time I have used it, but at the same time it is more co…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom (and any other conlang fanatics)

How are you guys thinking of incorporating multiple languages into your writing? Especially in a multi narrative book where one narrator might know/speak languages other narrators don’t.

@thearcaneaxiom

Yea, Junior year has been pretty crazy this year. I’m not so sure six AP’s was as good an idea as I had originally thought 😬 (it is a lot of homework but I will probably be fine, just takes away time from other things). Currently my main novel has been on pause (I still do world building and keep notes of ideas but am not act…[Read more]

Cool topic.  I will add a few ideas:

• Growing past prejudice
• Coming to terms that your hero isn’t who you see them as
• Growing beyond indifference
• Learning to forgive

@esther-c

Cool. I was in a similar situation a couple of years ago when I took a Drama class. They are pretty fun to write but a bit different. I am pretty sure you can get some movie scripts for free on the internet (if you want references). Generally speaking I have found that if you read the lines out loud in voices it can help you with editing.

1. How many modes of transport have you operated? I have flown a single-prop plane, piloted a private boat, driven a normal car, and driven a manual transmission truck.

I have only driven a (automatic) car. I do know a guy who has a plane license though,

2. Do any of you have any interesting pets? My pastor has a lizard.

I have two…[Read more]

@euodia-vision

Yea. Me and a couple of friends are going to see it.

It’s kind of funny because when I heard about the barbie movie it was from one of my friends at quizbowl and he was like it looks really cool and I was like how is a Barbie movie going to be cool and so we all watched the trailer and now I am kind of excited to see it. I’m not…[Read more]

Hi.

I’m Otherworldly Historian (on here, not in real life). I am related to someone who posted on this forum (not you, don’t worry).

I am a avid tabletop gamer, history nerd, fantasy reader and (obviously) attempted writer.

It is cool that you have already finished your fantasy novel and it seems structurally interesting.

Also if…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I agree that I want to see into the spider verse 2. Saw the first one and it was good and everyone keeps saying the second one is really really good.

(Slightly unrelated question)

Is anyone excited for Barbie on the 21st?

@whalkeeper

I really like this topic.

One of my antagonists named Sairin is really interesting because her motivations are actually good but her methods are really evil. Sairin is the leader of this one group that is trying to free their country from the nation (which is where most of the MCs come from (the government there isn’t the best a…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

It seems like you might need to either re-do the entire first book (which sounds like something you have already tried and is also probably going to be a bunch of work) or change the series to start at another book. From stuff you have said on KP I feel like the second one is probably a better idea. You seem to have a lot of ideas…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

Congrats on the 200 pages. Thats great. How many words is that (just to help me put in perspective because the font and page size can alter stuff) (also @folith-feolin has trained my brain to imagine books by word count)?

I can’t wait till my book is around that but I am only at chapter 22 of my outline. Hoping summer can help…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

General AI seems useless and unnecessarily difficult to build?

@thearcaneaxiom ?

Oops I forgot the rules aswell?

I don’t exactly know what you mean by general ai?

@thearcaneaxiom

Are you a senior (I feel like I should know this)? Good luck with your collage aps.

Yea. I did take the Euro exam. It was fun. The DBQ was weird though. It was on the Haitin revolution which is like a very tiny part of the APEuro exam. It worked out for me though because we had just covered the Haitian revolution in depth…[Read more]

Answer is credit of Chat GPT. Forgot to add that or tag you (@thearcaneaxiom).
