Not a fan of AI personally, and it doesn’t help that scientists are trying to make AI more and more like humans (guess they didn’t learn the lesson about playing God in Frankenstein or Jurassic Park). AI feels fake to me, especially the pictures, they just look so uncanny and off. Maybe it’s the lack of creativity or effort…[Read more]

Oh my goodness I love Experience!! My mom plays it quietly on her phone whenever she’s trying to get sick kiddos to sleep XD Do you play Hollow Knight?
Aww, that’s really sweet about your mom! And yep, I do play Hollow Knight.
1. This character has a flamboyant attitude at times, which is how others primarily perceive them. May be g…

Shadow, your journal idea sounds interesting. That would be a good way to get into the mindset of the character, especially for those writing the actual story in the third person. Could you explain some more, please? Do you write down the events from the story in these journals, or do they also feature days that the story does not cover? How many…

TheShadow replied to the topic Hello, there! in the forum Start HERE 1 week, 4 days ago
I agree, Christmas is the best holiday. My family has quite a few traditions. We open gifts on Christmas Eve as a family, then get up early the next day, open stockings, and head out to my grandparent’s church for a Christmas morning service.
That sounds like fun!
Also, we listen to Christmas songs all December long. My dad has an iPod with a t…

Lol, I do the exact same thing. And one time my brother did read something, but thankfully he didn’t understand it.
As mentioned before, I keep notebooks to record any ideas for writing later, but I also have a fellow writer friend and we both help each other to remember what’s going on and organizing plots and…[Read more]

Hello!!
Ok, I’m not the best at romance, but here’s a few tips I can think of right now:
- Establish why the two dislike or hate each other so much. This will add more tension for when the two are forced to work together.
- Build up to the friendship first, because that might take at least few chapters depending on how much they…

I really like what Ducky said (can I use that nickname @ducktator ? XD) about having a cultist influence the king within his closer circles. Another idea – since you want to preserve the concept of the land being rich and probably settled and populated – is to create a special communications system, then cut it off somehow before the…

Those are all really good ideas, I do have a character mention the rumor about a cult, so maybe I’ll go with that idea. Thank you so much!
