@keilah-h @theshadow @whalekeeper @linus-smallprint
here we go. Again, love feedback on Aaron here. I’m feeling pretty confidant, so it might all come crashing down. XD
The next evening found Aaron on his knees again. He found he was spending a lot of time that way, and he wasn’t finding any peace. Every night he cried out questions, and never o…

@calyhuge @otherworldlyhistorian @thearcaneaxiom @linus-smallprint
Apologies for tagging y’all. Hope you don’t mind. I’ve started employing the advice y’all gave me, and I wanted to see what you fella’s think before I go any farther with it. Does Aaron still seem like a guy. I mean, would…[Read more]

Otherworldly Historian replied to the topic Writing Characters of the Opposite Gender in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 1 month ago
I think what @whalekeeper and what @mineralizedwritings has said is really good.
For me a lot of my characters draw inspiration from either A.) Historical figures/real people or B.) other fictional charcers or C.) Specific theoretical archetypes. Often times when I struggle with character personalities I return to the scraps of others which make…[Read more]

Ah yes I’m a mess but I’m here lol XD I’m going kinda insane, my mom is out of town helping my sister who has started having small seizures, so I’m trying to manage my chronic illness alone. It’s a little scary, but I’m keeping on top of everything. I’m kinda sad because it looks like I won’t be able to go to college this next year,…[Read more]

I would approach any character as an androgynous person first, and build up a semblance of personality before developing them with gender in mind. Because otherwise you might fall into your default female tropes.
Yes this

But Turin and Edwin died.
I’m just telling the story.
lol.
We’re a good two-thirds (?) through.
I’m not gonna change what happened to them. That would change the whole story!
I’ll look back and try to add some fun scenes with Turin and Aaron…. if I can find an appropriate place.
Glad he’s reacting well.
I like how all his…

Ok, I have the next section, but before I go on I would like some feedback on the beginning stages of Aaron’s reaction to his grief.
That night, men and boys slowly trickled back to the large building. The Imperial…

Linus Smallprint started the topic Writing Characters of the Opposite Gender in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 1 month ago
As authors, we have characters who are both male and female, but sometimes it is hard to get into the heads of our characters who are the opposite gender from us. These characters sometimes turn out in very strange ways and we get Mary Sues or overly emotional guys – characters no one really likes. This forum is for guys and girls to ask each…[Read more]

I will go start a form for this discussion and tag you both, along with some other people. Feel free to tag anyone I miss to it.
Whaley:
So yeah XD In conclusion I think girls and guys are different mentally, but the line can be blurred depending on the individual.
And that is why answering this question is hard.

Ooh boy that’s a lot of stress 😖 *Passes you a warm cup of creamed coconut oolong tea*
I literally understand the chronic illness disrupting college, like, so much right now. My mum couldn’t teach me through high school because she’s been physically and mentally exhausted since I can remember. I am taking a gap year to catch up on lost time.…[Read more]
Yeah… thanks. Idk what coconut oolong tea is but I’ll take it lol XD
Oof yeah it’s like a different end of the same problem. Oh gap year? What’re your plans for that?
Yep, grief and frustration is a good description. I feel like I have to work multiple times as hard as other for the same accomplishment, and people can’t tell by looking,…[Read more]
I have no plans for my gap year XD Which is… concerning, to say the least. I might find a some programs which will give me a broader perspective on writing, art, etc. so I can choose what I want to do. Honestly if you have any suggestions for a new artist (if I got into art) finding the smoothest education route, do share on the art c…[Read more]
@whalekeeper
That sounds cool!
Hmm… I’m trying to figure it out myself XD
That’s so cool! I haven’t really watched a lot of cartoons, unless anime counts.
