@devastate-lasting Okay so it varies depending on the world. That’s cool!

Yeah, I’ve studied at an American school all my life, so even though some would call me fluent in Chinese I am definitely not comfortable talking in it haha. When I move to America in the near future it’s going to be even worse…

Yes, I think a lot of fictional drama…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting I played the violin for many years, but recently stopped playing/practicing. Now, I’m trying to teach myself the guitar. How about you?

@devastate-lasting *looks up genre of urban fantasy* That’s super cool! Would your entire Magic User World be classified as urban fantasy/contemporary fantasy then?

I think that writing in Chinese definitely would be fitting for a setting in Beijing. There’s a book called Want by Cindy Pon which is set in Taipei, and although she does a great j…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting Hey there! That’s good to know. Hopefully I can stay on here for quite a while then 🙂

@leon-fleming That’s right! I remember you joining just as the guilds kind of… died. There’s a thread called “New Wessex Worldbuilding and History” in the Announcements part, though, which is pretty cool and you can write yourself into the…[Read more]

@leon-fleming I’m thinking about becoming a speech therapist so wow your post was informative 🙂 To digress a little bit, what drew you into learning linguistics, and what sources did you learn from?

I don’t know what sounds I would vote for, but maybe we could exclude Z (since you mentioned you don’t like it) and maybe X because they are s…[Read more]

Oooh hey, I’m actually a Loyal Sidekick! I get why SE removed the post count (it bugged me too for a while) but it really does give us (introverts) an incentive to post more 😛

@devastate-lasting 你好! 我真的很高兴发现这个地方有另外一个华人! 😀

I’m hailing from Taiwan, so about 20% of the simplified Chinese above is impossible for me to read… but thanks Google Translate 😛

Anyways, even though I’m about 11 pages late, it’s great to meet you! I’m an INFJ and also a student. I think it’s super cool that you’re writing some in Chinese, and…[Read more]

@leon-fleming

. . . Can you come up with a different quest?? Tallest tower + mountain dew doesn’t really fit the job description. XD *at least I hope it doesn’t*

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin My apologies. Spy just seems to fit well with assassin.

@leon-fleming YES food! Once, long ago, raspberries and ice cream were the most important and precious commodities of this kingdom (besides writings).

Indeed! Justice for the Bumbling Henchmen! *stares into the setting sun* you are destined for greatness. *nods sagely*

Now if I recall correctly, Chosen Ones like Anakin Skywalker, Frodo Baggins, Harry Potter, Katniss Everdeen…. and many more …well, we don’t have the easiest time of it. Enjoy being Henchmen while you can. o . o

*pursues…[Read more]

lol no problem. I’ve had my share of hijacking threads. 😉

Hi there!
So, you like Tøp? SAMEEEE which is your favorite song?? Mine is probably Trees. 😛

@not-so-secret-assassin

Well, then not-so-secret-assin XDD Welcome to the kingdom!! Hopefully you’ll enjoy the snacks and won’t feel the need to spy on us too much. 😀 We have lots of ice cream and raspberries around here.

Hi @kathleenramm !!

Sushi. Yes, that. (except not the raw stuff). What do you like to write?? Personally, I like writing sci-fi. 😀

Huh, even tho you all tagged me my email refused to tell me. :///

@josiahdeboerofficial Hey I remember you too! XDDD Good to see you again!

@dekreel HELLOOOO!! Nope, not an ENFJ anymore. I’m joining the ENFP club. 😉

@leon-fleming Hey! See you were close with Educated Natural Flipping Pancake. But look at what you’ve done. Now I want a pancake.…[Read more]

@selah-chelyah @seekjustice

Hey there! 😀

I think I heard my name. 😉

What are we talking about, and how’s everyone doing?

. . .why are there two “z’s” on top of Sam? Why must you be like this, photo-editor? *facepalm*

@shannoncv  Glad to be of service. 😉

He’s got you. <3

That’s pretty sad. But I understand too; I haven’t been doing much writing either. But I do blog, and I still like writing; so even if I don’t, like, publish anything, it’s still a fun thing to do. Hope she’s doing okay!

Like I said, I’ve barely done any writing at all besides blogging. I…[Read more]
