After ghosting the internet for another month, I returned and found this! Hurrah!
I need a short story to clear my mind, so I would love to join 🙂 I’ll try to have my story in in a couple of weeks!
(Glad you extended the deadline to the 30th, or I would be kinda screwed lol)

I’d love to help out, but I’m afraid I wouldn’t be very consistent… I might accidentally ghost you… pretty often…
That being said, if you want casual beta readers, I’d be up for it!
Also yes I am still alive, summer happened and I was without wifi for a very long time my apologies to everyone I’ve ghosted this past month-and-a-halfI can't think of anything witty at the moment.
Wow… I absolutely love the second idea. When you write it sign me up for a beta read XD
I’m not joking though literally doBut honestly, that sounds amazing.
I have a few ideas that I’ll share about later, but those ideas deserve some recognition in their own post, and godspeed in writing them!

@issawriter7 Yeah, I’ll get on that! What sort of clothes would she be wearing?
@e-k-seaver I’ve drawn the face of Ly, if you could lemme know the type of outfit she’d be wearing I can finish it soon!- This reply was modified 3 years, 5 months ago by relia. Reason: clarity

@gracie-j
There you go! I’m really sad I started drawing too far down the page, cuz now she just ends at her knees 🙁
Despite it taking long, I had to do color, cuz I mean… she’s a pirate… XD

As a member of a big outdoorsy family, I loved drawing this XD Your characters are so fun!

There ya go! Dunno if the clothes are at all accurate…?
Should have just looked at a picture bibleI can't think of anything witty at the moment.
I think that a lot of themes are hidden. Some stories, such as, say, aesop’s fables, have themes and meanings that are very evident. In other stories, the themes can be harder to concretely put words to. Take LOTR. I would say that a huge theme in that story is heroism. The book doesn’t state “that’s what it means to be a hero!”, it just uses characters, who are good, evil, and some a mixture of both, to show us this in a more subtle way. When we see Sam carrying Frodo on his back up Mount Doom, we see sacrifice and selflessness, we see what heroism looks like. And with dystopia, which (I think?) is your genre, we often see hope in the face of evil, perseverance in the face of adversity, joy in the face of pain.
Basically, what I’m saying, is that your books will always have themes, even if they’re hidden. Even with secular books, there are always themes that have some good in them, if we look hard enough. So you don’t have to be preachy! Write about genuine characters and genuine struggles, and themes will emerge, even if it’s hard to see them at first.

@e-k-seaver how long is Ly’s hair, and what sort of outfit do you envision her wearing?

I don’t know what happened with her body butshe was really fun to draw 🙂My old camera really sucks at taking pics so this looks a little odd… oh well
maybe I should switch to digital art so I won’t have to deal with this problem :\- This reply was modified 3 years, 5 months ago by relia.
