Otherworldly Historian

@esther-c

Oooh, I love romantic side plots XD

XD Sammmeeee, I’m a total sucker

You could also toss in some conflict and have the guy meet her with bad intentions, like to figure out how to make Vital or steal it, etc. But then he ends up liking her. I feel like that trope is kinda overused, but if it’s done well, it doesn’t bother me.

I like Loo…

@anyone

Okay I had one idea that is kinda random but it’s there.

He could be this Gladiator who fights for entertainment, who looks all fierce in the ring, but then in reality is this perfect gentleman and all sweet and always apologizes to his opponents after he fights them. And he and the MC meet before one of his matches and then she’s like”…[Read more]

@loopylin

Thanks! No that’s great!

He could possibly be from outside the city, but it would be difficult

But I definitely like the idea of him not knowing or caring about her making Vital! And it could be something she worry’s about or has dealt with in the past. A ‘you only care about the money’ situation.

@magicalstories0611

Oooohhh love it Ry!!

I haven’t read through the whole thing yet but I will come back later, because I wanna know more!

(actually we’ve spent more time on the characters and world than the actual writing).

Think you’ve just summed up the entirety of an aspiring author’s process  😂. But figuring that stuff out befo…[Read more]

Wow, kp looks super weird rn

@esther-c @keilah-h

XD I always love Ev

You know your a writer when someone sneezes, and you naturally start to contemplate the implications of a world in which the mechanics of sneezing is a magic system.

@esther-c @keilah-h

Do y’all need physical descriptions?

Apologies if this is long

SERIN

“Argh.” Serin groaned, prowling through the endless halls. “Why can’t we get out of this Depths forsaken castle?”

“Don’t look at me.” Kun’en said, raising his burly arms in a shrug. “This place is downright odd.”

Can’t disagree with that, Serin thought.…[Read more]

@esther-c @keilah-h

Okay! I’ll do it for reals this time!!

@jonas

Yes!! My friend literally just told me about it today, but he didn’t give enough details!

@jonas

Do you mean Long Chills and Case Dough? Or something else?

@theducktator

I will probably read The Sunlit Man first, since that one is available at my library. I had Yumi, but alas, it was returned before I read it. ☹️

Ah, that makes sense. I’ll be reading Sunlit soon. I heard you need a lot of background for it though, but it’s mostly Stormlight stuff, so you should be ok.

I didn’t know there were two. I…

@theducktator

I’ve read Skyward, Tress of the Emerald Sea, A Frugal Wizard’s Guide to Surviving Medieval England, and all of the Stormlight Archive except Dawnshard, which I think I have from the library, but is missing. Alas.

Awesome! I’ve read all of those except Stormlight 4, which I’m in the middle of. Are you about to read Yumi then, sin…[Read more]

@theducktator

Thanks! A few tips would be nice, but I’m mostly focusing on my other WIPs right now.

Alright:)

Oh yes. Especially at the end when Alcatraz and Bastille were arguing over who broke the balcony. And I’m so glad Grandpa Smedry is still arriving late for his death. I love him.

Yep, Grandpa Smedry is the best! So you’ve read Alc…[Read more]

@theducktator

Hi! I generally lean more towards soft worldbuilding, though I am trying to create a world with harder worldbuilding. (I haven’t actually come up with any good ideas yet though.) My duck world has a very soft magic system, in which pretty much every weird magic idea I’ve had exists. Including a singing pineapple.

Cool! A singing pin…[Read more]

@esther-c @keilah-h

I know I said I would RP! I’m so sorryyyy I’ve been busier than expected 😅😭

@theducktator

Greetings your Duckiness!

I’m the Arcane Axiom. I love math, searching for divine fundamental truth, and exploring that in my writing. I read/write sci-fi/fantasy, and I’m currently working on a universe with my sister called the Sceptrum.

Questions!

Do you lean towards hard or soft worldbuilding? (I heard your into Sanderson, so…[Read more]

@esther-c @keilah-hOkay awesome! I can probably RP tomorrow, but not tonight

@esther-c @keilah-h

Yeah totally!

We can just have them be in random parts of the castle and meet up somewhere perhaps?
