@hybridlore so sorry for taking over your forum. Those boards are awesome.

@whalekeeper

“snipercore” lol

idk if that’s a word but IT’S A WORD NOW

CROSSHAIR AND MUNDY FOREVER BABY

(gonna regret saying that in a decade when this shows up on some old internet log and I have a chance, however small, of being like ‘who do those names belong to again?’ But whatever)

Yes to reptiles and sci-fi, every time. Lol

and he…[Read more]

And Everett’s . . .

This is Juliet’s.

@ellette-giselle

Does Everette have a board??? I want an Everette board!!!

I can post his and Juliet’s in a minute . . .

I hope one of them dies in the end.

Really? 🙄🤣

I’m also hoping Everette and Sara get married in the future. So… maybe he shouldn’t die.

I will reveal nothing . . . 🤭

@keilah-h

What exactly does that entail?

Snipercore, reptiles, sci-fi, things like that. Also, I’ve never tried to use a 3D animation engine, but now that you’ve started playing with that, I associate you with the vibe of minimal-effect 3D models. I know that’s very specific and doesn’t make a lot of sense, but it’s in my brain now. Lol.

There’s n…

@ellette-giselle

Yayyy!! They’re back! 🥰

This was a good section too.

The one that seems to be their leader is extremely bold, and he doesn’t seem to care what anyone says— or throws at him.”

Leon smirked, having a hard time stifling a laugh. He could guess who that was

Lol 🤣

Hi Julian, we’re back.”

This did seem a little out of place. I’m…[Read more]

I want somebody to digitally smack/spam me if I haven’t updated Marcel or Barnes within 24 hours.

*Extremely embarrassed at the length of the post* Also Sara, just because I yapped a lot does not mean you have to ‘fix’ anything. I’ve explained how I would edit, but those are my opinions and this is your project. 😊

@savannah_grace2009

no I haven’t!!!

Oki, I’m going to explain this structure because it seems to work for a looot of stories! 🙃 It’s very broad/all-encompassing, except for some Eastern cultures and the like.

I did not invent all of this. I listened to Brandon Sanderson’s writing lectures and explained them in my own words. So just to clarify, I…[Read more]

Also I can’t disagree that trauma doesn’t automatically make characters deep. Nothing does. We have to work to make our characters, same as anything else. There’s not just a switch we can flip to automatically make a good character.

Unless you’re like me, then you can just borrow them from other people’s stories, but even that takes wor…[Read more]

@whalekeeper lol “the Keilah genre”

What exactly does that entail?

@keilah-h

I don’t like being super graphic/body horror about it, I just make sure my favorite characters come out of it with a tangible reminder of the incident.

Tangible reminder is a fun trope. I haven’t used it too often. I can’t remember the last time I gave a character a dramatic scar. It feels like something that belongs in the Keilah genre. :p

To be faaiir I do not even know who Alec and Everette are. Yet. I’m getting there. 🤣

@ellette-giselle @keilah-h

But it’s so sad when the favorite character dies!!! And I love crying over books!!

If they don’t die she at least needs to make life miserable for them for a few chapters.

But trauma doesn’t automatically make characters deeeeep… 😫 Actually side note, I’ve been thinking about this topic and we should make a thread for…[Read more]

And not all in the same book too. It’s better if the main characters all go through different things.

@ellette-giselle

Maybe all our writing has come to life and our characters are walking around in different places!! (sounds like a movie or something)

It could be kinda scary if some of my villains got loose. 😂

Lol that would be weird….but also kinda cool. Except for the scary villains haha, I have my share of those.

Now where are my t…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle You’re crazy girl! Lol

okay but I do agree with you, making the main character miserable is fun. Not so much killing them all the time in my book, but brutally scarring them is what I tend to do.

you lose an eye and YOU lose BOTH eyes and this one get his arm slashed off and this one gets her wings shredded

lol
