@godlyfantasy12 Yayy! I’ve been copying down the entire school rp into a google doc, and reading your old writing is making me miss your characters so much.

I’m glad you got to take a break, but I’m also glad you’re getting back into it :]

@whalekeeper

What if I said everything 

Hm, I guess I would like to get better at writing more interesting, distinct sentences and showing more than telling. I think I’ve gotten a smidge better at writing okay sentences, but nowhere near as using excellent word choices or stuff like that.

I would also like to show my themes better instead of…[Read more]

@hybridlore

I think so, although if she doesn’t I can send it to her again.

@keilah-h

I really like them, they’re good!! Nice job!!

@hybridlore

The story is looking really good so far, although I’m a little confused by Cole. Is he meant to be really smart, but doesn’t necessarily care about school? Sorry, I just need a little clarification. Each character is good though, I particularly find Alec interesting.

@the_lost-journal

ugh, I am so bored.

Same. I should probably do Latin, but then I’ll be more bored.

WE’RE IN THE AFTERWORD PEOPLE! WE’RE FAMOUS!

@linus-smallprint

I’m going to try and look at all of this when possible.

@esther-c

The only place I rant about my characters or my writing is really on here or any other writing community.

I do tend to share a lot of mine with my siblings, but other than them, and here, no one gets to know about it.

I’m sorry for replying to everyone and possibly being annoying, but you all are making sense of something I wasn’t able to make sense of myself…..

so yeah that’s a thing.

@linus-smallprint Measuring how long one arm is and using that as a baseline for the other one helps me. Also, the arms tend to end toward the bottom of the hip, with the hands extending a little farther than that.

@linus-smallprint

Thanks for the extra ideas. I bet I can make a list of things to focus on with line thickness.

Nice drawing!! I always like how dedicated you are with the textures, such as the wood and brick floor. that takes more patience than I have at this time.
I agree with Keilah on both those points. Another thing – Alan’s left arm might…[Read more]

@theducktator

but having parents read my cringey emotional or romantic scenes…*shudders*

YES. THIS.

@savannah_grace2009

This is sooo good! Your writing is so beautiful.

I never show my parents anything other than funny short stories. I don’t think they’d dislike it or not approve…but having parents read my cringey emotional or romantic scenes…*shudders*

@esther-c

Tbh, I don’t share my writing with my parents until it’s in a final or almost final draft stage. The only place I rant about my characters or my writing is really on here or any other writing community. My family knows I write, and I actually used to share a lot of it with my siblings, but now I like giving them the best, not nec…

@linus-smallprint

Oh, definitely. I was just curious about the rights of Canada’s government compared to ours. They seem to be very close.

@savannah_grace2009

Awww! Esther!!! That means literally so so SO much to me!!

I appreciate you so much, you’re amazing 🥺🥺💜💜💜💜

💕💕💕

So for a while I stopped writing altogether, because even when I would try to write happy things that didn’t include violence or too much evil or darkness, somehow the topic would always shift. And my heart was…

I want to use was and were less. I’ve noticed this mostly in my essays. I’ll write sentences like he was, or this was, and in my last essay I eliminated a lot of those, and it sounded a lot better.

I want to get better at worldbuilding. That’s something that always gets neglected in my stories. I generally just make stuff up as I go along, but…[Read more]

And I’m sure that won’t be the case, but there’s a TON of stuff I’d have to explain before I gave them, say, the 215-page fanfic I finished last year, and I don’t really feel like I want to have to do that.
