@highscribeofaetherium you can totally do that! just tag me again when you’re back to doing these.

@theducktator you can go first! I need to get better references for my characters anyway.

Aaand this is not what this topic is for. I apologize for rambling, Shadow. 😅

@ellette-giselle

Oh ho ho, well…

The thing is, I can’t remember everything that’s in Castle in the Sky, but the rest of the Studio Ghibli films have a lot of Japanese mythological spirits. Beings like No-Face, Totoro, or Mononoke are all considered spiritual powers. I personally do not mind these kinds of characters in literature, as they…[Read more]

just castle in the sky! 😭😭😭😭

I really want to watch more but no one else does. I also saw War of the Rohirrim. Other than that, I haven’t seen any anime.

it’s just so beautiful and the stories are always told so well….. *sigh*

@ellette-giselle

Oh, Studio Ghibli is amazing. I have a bunch of the movies on my shelf right now. Which have you watched?

@highscribeofaetherium

It’s okay if you’re busy. If you finish a character for Keilah, I’ll come back then.

@whalekeeper

*bows dramatically*

sadly I am the only one in my family who likes anime! I guess when I move up to Idaho to go to college next year (Lord willing) I’ll barrow a bunch from the library. 😛

@ellette-giselle

Give yourself a foundation to build off of, otherwise you’re just building castles in the sky, and only Miyazaki can do that. 😉

Hehehe, I see what you did there

@highscribeofaetherium

yay!!

@ellette-giselle

If you’re worried about that, you’ll be 100% fine.

@highscribeofaetheriuM

no prob.

@rae

I will be more annoyed if you save people who need to die for character arc or story purposes.

@ellette-giselle

and Baron goes for it. 🤣🤣 that was the bluntest declaration of love I’ve seen in a while. 😆

Good section. One of your best, honestly. I’m starting to really feel your characters!

lol, yes

I’m glad you enjoyed it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t get too attached or you may hate me for ete…

@theshadow

Linus is 💯 correct. Plus, the more you pause the more you lose your flow. For me, I turn off autocorrect and grammarly, and I just write and write and don’t look back until the whole thing is on paper. Beginning to end. Then you can go back and start editing and fine-lining and rewriting. Give yourself a foundation to build off of, o…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Okay, I am caught up now.

I see you already saw some of my comments. I like where this is going and I think Sara’s reaction to the underground church makes sense. You have good attention to detail as you write.

Out of curiosity, what draft number is this? I doubt it is the first.

Looking forward to the next chapters!

@whalekeeper

👍

@theducktator

Thank you for your support! I’m still working on trying to piece everything together, but I do think I want to include that scene in some way.

@theducktator

Your welcome!

I might wait until you are 18 for Mistborn. But yeah, check with your friends as well.

@ellette-giselle

yeah…. If I wanna risk seeing porn worthy covers when I open it.

Ewww… Yup, that’s a very good reason to avoid that.

(until those were taken down for being politically offensive)

Taken down for being politically offensive? Or was there perhaps another reason. One the Librarians don’t want you to know. Hmm…

@theshadow

Ah. I thought it might be the first draft.

Can I give you some advice?

From what I can tell about the way you write, you seem to have trouble getting through your progects. My advice to you is common for first drafts. Don’t worry about rewriting anything. Just power through, and keep writing without looking back. There is going to be…[Read more]
