@calidris Yess it’s always like that for me even though I dictate the outline they still do their own thing in each scene. And at this point the depressing endings are plentiful.
Yep, my characters are all their own beings now. I rarely plot them beforehand, and sometimes I’m surprised by how different than I thought they would be.

@calidris Samee I feel your pain. Usually I just make it up as I go along and don’t plot anything. It’s a ride.

@kathleenramm YO ERASED I have all the manga it’s the first manga I bought it’s so good it just brings tears to my eyes—
@calidris Oo, a mining museum! That sounds pretty cool.
Hmm okay. Then I’ll give you a variety of genres. Your lie in April is a really beautiful anime about music. I really enjoyed A Silent Voice manga as well, and the a…[Read more]

@calidris Hello and welcome to the forum! I’m Elizabeth, and it’s so very nice to meet you! Would you care for a cup of virtual tea? I would recommend the Wild Berry Zinger if that strikes your fancy. 😛
Ah yes, a fellow Tolkienite! I love Tolkien so very much (as most people who have spent any amount of time talking to me knows). I’m currently…[Read more]

@calidris Give me some genres you like, and I’ll recc you some anime, heh. There’s a lot of different stuff out there.
Yee, I have a ton of current projects. Yesterday I just started a short story about alter egos and reality. And, yeah, I totally get having everything in your head. I used to be like that too.
I love Interstellar as well! And I…[Read more]

@calidris Oh my word someone else who watches anime! I haven’t watched Haikyu before but I know a lot of people like it.
Yo, your WIP sounds so cool! I love like modern fantasy type of things. It’s what I write too. I would love to hear more about Spire!
Anyways, I’m Linyang, a lot of people here call me Lin, I like writing fantasy, crime,…[Read more]

Hey, sorry about the late welcome, but WELCOME anyway! I’m Ella, I write dystopian/thriller/suspense/mystery/post-apocalyptic/YA novels. I love myself a good mystery/thriller book on a rainy day with a cup of tea, if I’m in the mood. If I’m not, I’m most likely in the gym or playing basketball or hanging with friends. And writing is…[Read more]

Thanks! Well, i always had the idea for Hope’s character in the back of my head, but watching the Will Smith movie, I Am Legend inspired me to expand the plot. That movie, paired with Interstellar really sealed the bill for me. XD I love complex plots, high stakes, and characters searching for family/romance, so this story is b…[Read more]

@kathleenramm This is actually the sequel of a sequel of a spinoff for my original idea for Thirteen Ways, ha… It started out with me wanting to make a world where I could escape to, and gradually I just added on, and on, and on… And now, thankfully, I’ve run out of ideas for it.

Elizabeth replied to the topic What's the most recent book you've finished? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 3 months ago
@kathleenramm The characters are quite good! They definitely get more fleshed out as the series goes on (I’m thinking of one ((Fitz)) in particular), and the dynamics are all very interesting. It’s a large enough cast so that their interactions are never dull, if you know what I mean. I’m currently impatiently waiting on someone to return Book 6…[Read more]

@daisy-torres Oh man, THIS IS SO COOL!!! Like, seriously. I’m in love. 😀 What program(s) did you use to make it? It looks so cool and professional and, dare I say, #swag. (Do kids these days still say swag? I have no idea.)

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic What are the 2 (or 3) biggest stakes in your story? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 3 months ago
@kathleenramm I’m gonna use the current arc of Thirteen Ways since the stakes are the clearest. Basic premise: they need to gather ingredients for a spell to vanquish a demon. If they don’t, then some friends and family are lost forever to the demon.
In order to collect the ingredients, they must defeat the guardians of some of the ingredients.…[Read more]

Tbh, i feel like every era was just plain bad. XDÂ Maybe i’d go back to the eighties and nineties to jam out and crowdsurf XDDDÂ Not a super intelligent answer, but that’s what I’d do:)

for my WIP Spirals, the stakes are the choices between life and death. Hope, the MC, lives alone in the wild and wants a “family” more than anything: parents, friends, anyone. Every decision she makes decides if she’ll survive the next morning. The people living in the post-apocalyptic world are basically insane so she never know…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Good luck on your story! Yes, now I think I want to incorporate at least one delivery boy henchman into a future story. I love it when henchmen have distinct personalities and appearances. Makes the story much more fun.
