A lot of this is actually first draft material since I was adding in stuff, so bear with me 🫣 But I didn’t want to keep y’all waiting. 😉

Ryla

Ryla stopped as she heard loud chatter. Maybe if she just stood against the wall and stared at the floor people wouldn’t notice her. Suddenly a boy shrieked and fell over her foot. Ryla started. The boy looked up at her.

“The floor… What a great place to delve in the deep depths of sorrow and ponder unanswered questions,” he…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12  Daryen, I love you.

@rae

This had better not be Baron!

I’ve been wondering this too. One of my characters is in a similar predicament. Like Whaley suggested, she wrote letters to those she loved. Some of this will depend on whether your character is at peace with their death or not. *subscribes because I’m stuck too*

@whalekeeper

But what if someone were to hide behind the corner with a spray bottle and keep the rock wet on a sunny day?

That’s what I think of every time I see that picture.

@theshadow

Ooh, okay that’s a good idea. I’ll try that, do you have any book suggestions?

Yes! Let’s see…

• Anything by Robin Jones Gunn — she’s literally my favorite author ever and I absolutely love her writing. I’ve heard mixed opinions on her books (some saying they’re cheesy or unrealistic) but it think they’re really good. If you don’t like…

@whalekeeper

That first one is soooo true. XD

Those sound good. I should learn to make something other than kraft mac n cheese.

@whalekeeper I love those XD

@rae what does purple mean again?

@whalekeeper

Pana cotta is really easy to make! It just takes a minor eternity for the gelatin to set up in the fridge. My cousin and I made a bunch in under 30 minutes. It then had to sit overnight in the fridge (although we ate some at dinner even though it was soft).

And I can’t seem to find the recipe book. =|

You can totally do that. Just…

@koshka

I was just thinking about making pana cotta! Never tried to make it before, but I had it a few days ago and enjoyed it.

Although I might swap out the rosewater for orange or lavender.

You can totally do that. Just decide what flavor combo with the spices is best in your opinion.

Although I really want to find a creme brulee recipe that doesn’t take 8-12 hours.

@whalekeeper

Ah, lovely. Tis faster than pana cotta I see. I must try this.

Although I might swap out the rosewater for orange or lavender. Rose has never been a favorite flavor of mine.

@stephie

*Sighs* *Flips hair dramatically* I have answered your irrelevant interview questions. It’s too bad I’m behind bars, or I would set your printing press on fire. And not in a good way.

Hm. I have a couple characters who go through the same thing. One has a few days, the other has a suspicion of their own death and only becomes sure of it in the last few hours.

I think it depends on how much of a communicator they are, and what kind of legacy they want to leave behind.

Character A might tell his friends immediately (or not long…[Read more]
