What if Henry has a friend who’s a Redcoat? You could bring out the strife and yet friendship on the two sides of war.

Ooh that’s an interesting idea! I’ll have to think about that.

@rae so sad, now that I know the context….

@rae

Oh, it’s even better!

And it’s the tears on my face,

Trying to call you from some faraway place,

Ah, this part is very sad…

@rae

Ohhhhh! Yeah, I’ve peaked into that RP, but it’s not my type of thing. I do remember that name.

@rae

Also, who’s Cole and what RP is he in?

@rae

Yeah, like I said to Sara, I do get that, but Nedan is so so SO underdeveloped. I would be RPing with little more than a name, a job, and a power. Sure he might develop, but he could become basically anything, and he needs to become a character that’s right for this story. So maybe I will do it some time, (I have considered adding him to sch…[Read more]

@rae

Oh wait, I just read your most recent draft and I like it even better!! I think it could stay as it is if you like it. 🙃

@rae

I like it how it is, tbh. I think it sounds great!

I’m dreaming of a time, when I was broken,

When you comforted me, many a time.

This part though doesn’t flow as smoothly as the rest of it. Um… I wish I could offer a suggestion… Maybe it could go something like this…?

I’m dreaming of a time, when I am hurting,

And you comfort my aching h…

Anyway, you also said you don’t put Nedan in RP’s because he’s underdeveloped. I actually think the purpose of role plays is actually to develop your character. I have put many characters that aren’t developed in role plays and it helps me to hear their voice and learn more about them, just from writing them outside…

Wow. You (and your sister) are amazing at building worlds! I feel like mine is so cliche! I really can’t help you much on worldbuilding, because I’m really new to that and it would be like trying to teach a professional artist how to draw, XD

But I will gladly try to help you with characters!!!

@loopylin @rae @otherpeopleI’mstrugglingtonamebecauseIdontwanttobotherpeople (Tags are so useful, eh? XD)

Character name needed!

Okay, so I have a cute side character. He is from Project Chrysanthemum/Baztet, and he is basically Babs and Marcel’s little brother. He is super scrawny and weak, has fluffy white hair with orange speckles und…[Read more]

@jonas @rae

I find myself actually pretty good at getting just the basic melody notes from just hearing a tune (I do need a piano to do it, though). I can help with that, if you need.

@rae

Okay, great! I will warn you that transcribing from sound to written music is probably my biggest weakness as a composer, but if you do post it, I will do my very best. I should be able to figure it out given enough time.

@rae

I’m not very good at coming up with lyrics, but I like what you have. I also write music, so if you happened to need help with that part of the process (assuming you are writing music to go with the words), I would be happy to give advice. It might help if you arranged the words in lines. That would at least help me see it clearly, because i…[Read more]

@rae

I don’t know much about writing songs XD But I still write poetry, so maybe I can help! Do you have a melody in mind, or are you letting the reader imagine it and are instead writing an almost-melodic poem?

@rae

It is really good!! and sad…

I’m not sure that I can really help… so sorry…
