@seekjustice I see. 🙂 I love making up names!
Oh, wow. I love the rhythm of that poem!
Don’t worry. I’ve been going on tangents all night! 😛
Oh, that is strange. You need to try it out!! 😉 You should watch the pilot episode first, if possible, just to get the background, but then whatever order of episodes you want.
I’m leaving now. Goodnight!

@seekjustice Okay, I’m in an analyzation mood, so here’s my take on those names:
Moonaru and Mooniji have too much “moon” in them, and they make me think of moony romance or loony weirdness. (Yeah, sorry, couldn’t come up with a better phrase than “loony weirdness” which is sad, seeing as I’m a writer, but that’s life.)
Narara is too much of a…[Read more]

@alia Haha, your idea reminds me of the Studio C episode where the Narrator has a fight with the protagonist. 😛 Have you seen that?
Let’s see… (I’ll copy @seekjustice‘s style of listing 😉 )
Villain Cliches:
- Male villain has a mustache
- Female villain is either the most beautiful woman in the world, or extremely ugly
- Villain’s voice…

@seekjustice, what is it about?

@rochellaine, you were fairly close. She is in her late fifties to early sixties. A mother of five children, three died before the age of ten and the younger two were essentially kidnapped by the priests. She is clever, uses things to her advantage.
I have a character but the name isn’t set yet. She is for Decisions, a fairly major character with…[Read more]

@seekjustice @alia Forgive me, both of you. I believe I’m in a rambling mood tonight. I just totally rambled on for hours in my posts to both of you. 😛
I hope you don’t get too confused or bogged down in my mental spiderwebs. 😉
(How would you get “bogged down” in “spiderwebs?” I’ve always known I was horrible at symbolism, but this is really bad.)

@seekjustice Oh, yes. I love cliches!!! But while I enjoy cliches being made fun of, I actually like real cliches used seriously. I guess…hm, what sort of cliches did I use in my short stories? 😛 I didn’t do it on purpose. I don’t mind if I did, I just never thought of it before. Are stupid doctors cliche? Valtmy seemed to think they…[Read more]

@seekjustice, well this character is kinda a big deal in Decisions but since I just came up with her I don’t want to give anything away with context. Also, I wanted to know what the name made you think of

@seekjustice, alright, I’ll ask my mom or one of my sisters about it.
hmm, she was young at one time, but not anymore. I guess she might pass as a strong female character. Definitely not a princess. Clever I guess. Should I keep the name you think?

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
@seekjustice, I’ll have to look into it.
on a different topic, what do you think of the name Ceer? What type of person would you think she is with that name?

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
@seekjustice, Terry Pratchett…doesn’t ring a bell. What are some books by (is it a him or a her, Terry could be either way…)?
What book is that, it sounds interesting

@seekjustice, thanks! These are great

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
@seekjustice, I plan on making the narrator part of a guild of narrators but because he expects things to go according to cliches he keeps accidentally changing the story and telling the villain what to do and not to do. (e.g. the monologuing so that the protagonist knows the plan and escapes)
-
Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 9 months ago
@seekjustice, So dramatic 🙂
I have this short story idea (that might turn into a collection of short stories) where everything that happens is cliche. Not sure how it would actually turn out, but I really want to try it.

There is this short story idea I have, but the main thing about it is that it is chock full of cliches. So if y’all could list every cliche you can think about, I would really appreciate it. (particularly narrator, protagonist, and villain cliches)(but other ones as well)

@seekjustice, ooh fun. I’m writing chapter 8 of Decisions and looking for a bunch of cliches.
