I’m still struggling to get through an outline, but it’s not working out well. I keep on getting to judgmental with myself, trying to write the perfect outline. I keep thinking, ‘ is this really what Alan would do? Is he unlearning what he learned in book I here? Is that a bad thing for his character…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

ah! Okay.

@whalekeeper

well then, I’ll keep it in mind.

I looked it up and it seems like it might be…. claymation? Something like that.

@whalekeeper

I like dramatic dark things as long as it’s there for a purpose beyond making me scream or feel creeped out. It has to be there for a reason, and the reason needs to be highlighting the light!

Mateo

The figure kept his arms on his guitar. “Do these guys who blow stuff up bother you often?” The figure like the winged muchacho, and for some reason he felt inclined to help him if these others were a problem to him.

@whalekeeper

yeah, i’m not into those.

@raxforge

K, well if it keeps acting glitchy I may shift it. I didn’t get your notif when you tagged me.

@whalekeeper

I subscribed and nothing happened, and nothing happens when they’re tagging me……..

@ellette-giselle

I did respond, but I didn’t get a notification either.

@whalekeeper

I’m not subscribed, and I didn’t get any notification when Ellette tagged me.

@whalekeeper

Mateo

The figure smiled, a devilish creepy smile. He admired the guy who seemed to have no fear of him. He starred at him for a while, finishing his melody with one last chilling chord. “I blow stuff up. You are curious, muchacho.”

@whalekeeper

horror story?

oh.

idk if I’ve ever seen one of those. I watch The Village and A Quiet Place but idk of those are horror. My friend said they are. *shrug*

@whalekeeper

My friend says the same thing! I like the movie better because while the story is intact, it goes the extra mile with the stop-motion. It’s so gorgeous. <3 One of the most aesthetically pleasing movies I’ve ever watched.

which movie is this?!

@whalekeeper

Mateo

The figure stopped walking, but never stopped playing his guitar in its minor key. He lifted his head slightly to meet the gaze of the fellow who was asking him questions. The figure’s face wasn’t even a face, but it was a skull, with two blue eyes in the center, looking dead into the interrogator’s eyes. He began to speak in…[Read more]

@hybridlore

I don’t think you are going overboard with different aspects of Sara’s character. The different aspects of her character aren’t distracting from each other. Her synesthesia gives he a unique perspective on the world. Her depression is a flaw she is seeking to overcome. Her love of facts interests her, and as my editor says,…[Read more]

@whalekeeper I’ve never counted HTTYD, cause the books and movies are completely different and only really share their titles and character names.

@whalekeeper

lol.

I was told the writing style wasn’t great either.

Have you read the original Rapunzel? Like, the 100 page narrative? Old, old, old.

@the_lost-journal  @keilah-h   @theducktator

@whalekeeper

Never read the HTYD books because someone told me not to and just stick with the movies.

Never read Princess Bride but I really want to!

There are two movies that were better than the book that I can think of off the top of my head……. but I forgot the second. XD

The bi…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Wait… you posted in the spring channel here, I think. Are you joining KDWC?

Lolol! Yeah, senior year is kind of crazy.

Normally everyone’s trying to kill each other with jokes.

🤣🤪

Oh wow. I’ve never really thought about that before, but it must be really weird and interesting. What’s the coolest thing you’ve learned so far?

Yea…[Read more]

@hybridlore

First off,  @whalekeeper had an amazing suggestion for Cole and Sara! Love that!

Second, I like the synesthesia. It’s interesting and I don’t really know much about it so I feel like i’m uncovering something new as I read. I may be the odd number on this, but I personally enjoy it.

how about you, @linus-smallprint ?

@whalekeeper

You’re good! XD

Oh, this is unrelated, but by the way, how is Challenge 4 going? What are you planning to do for your senior thesis? (I saw you were sprinting to work on it.)

I think I understand what you were trying to say, and I love that idea! A scene is starting to form in my head already 😅 The only problem is, I’ll have to…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I think for me, the most obvious way I can think of that one of my hobbies has bled into my writing life is my Boardgaming hobby. In my main WIP the political mastermind character is also a really big tabletop gamer and uses that as a metaphor for his political machinations.
