Hi guys. Unfortunately I think I have to step out. I really enjoyed this and I’d love to continue, but I don’t have the time I wish I had to give to this. So I’m officially leaving this project.

@dakota I know we were in the middle of a collaboration, and if I could…[Read more]

Here’s the map, with the new forest. Thanks for being so patient. (sorry about the fingers, it was either that of a huge shadow over it.)

Romance is fine with me so long as I don’t have to write it. I have no problem if someone else wants to do it, I just don’t enjoy writing it.

Everyone else: @urwen-starial @esmeralda-gramilton @naiya-dyani @mayacat

The precinct had seen better days. When the building had first been built the walls had stood proudly at attention, but now they seemed to…[Read more]

@emberynus-the-dragonslayer and @esmeralda-gramilton Great job. That was really long. Is it still okay if my character, Altan, investigates the murder?

——–

Pasha stared at the door.

It didn’t move.

The large dog sighed, chest lifting of the ground before settling back in a new spot. Stay. Wait. That was what his boy had– his master had said. Yes, his master had t…[Read more]

Lonan: I… would… rather… have a muddy Christmas with friends. But… I’ve never seen snow and I don’t have any friends, so I’m not sure I’m qualified to answer.

Altan: I have seen snow, buddy, and I’d rather spend a holiday with…[Read more]

@urwen-starial Where is Era? If you don’t mind I was going to have Pasha meet up with…[Read more]

Thanks, I found it.

I think that your plan for Dither sounds great. Go ahead.

Yes, I would like Era and Pasha to meet again.

What role are you hoping to give Dither? Who’s Dither?

@literatureforlight Awesome. Thank you for clarifying.

@zee I’ve been writing down all my ideas and the details of the story, I just want to wait before actually writing it. But you’re right. this is likely the best idea I’ve ever had, and I don’t want to waste it.

@josiah Thank you.

Okay everyone. I’ve…[Read more]

Great job.

@dakota

Awesome. Can’t wait.

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. I’ll probable try that.

@literatureforthelight

Thank you, I do struggle with plot especially in larger works. I’ll use that.

@arindown

That view does help, I’ll keep that in mind. But… What’s a Panster?

@daeus-lamb

Yeah, I’m more like a kid ready to order off the adult menu than a five-year…[Read more]

So I have this great story I’ve been working on. It is fantasy, has many characters, multiple view points, new magic system, and is generally awesome.

Problem is, I can’t write it… yet. I’m not a bad writer, but I’m honestly not even ready to write a novel yet much less one of this magnitude.

So my question is, what do I do…[Read more]

Perfidy: deceitfulness, untrustworthiness

I remember learning this word for the first time reading Tale of Despereaux and falling in love with it there.

Sorry, I missed some of the notifications. I think skipping ahead will work just fine, but if you want to write more that’s also good.

@emberynus-the-dragonslayer

That was sad, but beautiful. Love the violin.

Lonan: Hm… Well, if I didn’t know my birthday I could just make one up. But if I didn’t know my best friend’s birthday they might be offended. I’ll forget mine.

Tawny: I don’t want to forget anymore of my history. I’ll keep mine.

Lonan: *clears throat*…[Read more]

Okay I’m back. I was visiting my grandma.

Great job guys. I loved reading all that.

I’ll be disappearing for two weeks, but then I’ll be back. Just figured I should mention that if anyone tried to contact me.

TTFN

Great work you guys. Great work with Pasha too. If you need me to write a part for Pasha just let me know, but till then I think your characters have got it.

1) Do you enjoy the outdoors? Why do you/do you not?

I love the outdoors. Out in the wild I have space to run. (Lonan was also raised in a place where you only went inside if there was some reason you couldn’t be outside.)

2) In your opinion, what is the most beautiful place on earth?

The Void is magnificent. Grass as far as the eyes…[Read more]

Thanks Dakota, for bringing this back to attention.

I have not forgotten this for a moment, however I accidentally got all my characters stuck at red lights. I have a part prepared, but I can’t post anything at this point in the story unless I try to do a flashback…[Read more]

1. I’ve had my fair share of desperate situations, I’m seziure prone (not in the usual way) and I recently moved to a gang ruled city. I’m also able to keep a fairly cool head.
2. On my own I have no combat skills, but I do have super-human reflexes and other things that would help if someone tried to teach me some combat skills. My…

Great job. I really liked those ones.

I’ll be answering as Aeronwen

1. Um… I don’t really care about fashion, or know anything about it. But tunics should never have fallen out of style.
2. I’d be a ferret. They have so much fun and they…

Okay, answering as Rhoda

1. The biggest lie I tell myself is that I don’t belong anywhere.

2. My favorite quote is: Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they…[Read more]

@naiya-dyani Don’t sweat it.

This is for my character Rhoda.

1. Usually doesn’t smile. Speaks in a way that is logically determined not socially determined.
2. She does this because she was raised in something kind of like a science…

Hey guys! Been a while. I thought I’d just post an update.

I haven’t posted anything on here in the last month because all my writing time has been for my short story for the contest. However I’m almost ready to enter that…[Read more]

Okay here’s Pasha’s part.

—

There was a hand in front of his face, and it smelled of blood and fear. It was rank with the pain of far too many people. A low growl escaped from Pasha’s throat and the hand jerked back. His hackles rose and the young woman shrank…[Read more]

Great job to both of you.  Should I do a part for Pasha? In this situation he’d be most likely to not trust Megyn and try to keep her away from Kedori, but he’d mostly just wait for Kedori to make a move.

Just let me know.

I haven’t had a lot of time to write these last few weeks, but I’m back on track now. I’m working on Altan’s next part like we planned, but I can’t release it until Wes is actually dead. So, I am waiting. But no one needs to feel rushed. I only have two sentences written.

My family is doing just fine. Summer is coming…[Read more]

Yeah, that sounds great. If no one has any problems I’ll work with that.

Hello again. So… I’ve run into a dead end. I know that I want Altan to find some case to investigate with Tawny, but I’m not sure what that is. If you have an idea for that or something else that my characters could do that would be great. I really love doing this.

Thanks

So, I absolutely love to talk about MBTI and my family can attest to that fact. I’ve not delved into the functions yet, but I do have some experience with the personality types you’re talking about.

I am an INTJ so not what you’re looking for, however both my mother and sister are ISFJs, so that’s where I spend a lot of time looking.…[Read more]

Thanks, I like your characters too.

Altan: Um… well embarrassing would be that I’m really jealous of Lonan’s hair.

Me: Altan, you really shouldn’t be. It’s practically a curse.

Altan: But it’s so shiny.

Tawny: Well, I guess the most surprising thing is that Lonan and I are t…[Read more]

Great job.

For everyone else:

I’m still here, but I don’t have a new part this week.

Altan: She got distracted writing something else

Tawny: And it wasn’t even the story we came from which she’s supposed to be writing.

Goodbye.

Tawny: Farewell and may your hair ever be free of rats.

Altan: *grabs Tawny and drags her away* I’m soooo sorry. She can’t help but make weird comments about hair, it’s how she was raised.

Citrine: This is not where I express my opinions.

Altan: Please ignore all of them. They don’t know what they’re saying.

Pasha:…[Read more]

I had intended it to be a coast, but it could be a river instead.

Altan shifted his gun to his back. The weapon was large and awkward, but it was also what set him apart and identified him as what he was, an officer of the law. No, he didn’t serve the government, at…[Read more]

I don’t have anything super big planed for any of my characters at the moment. Citrine is just background for now and most likely won’t pop up again for a while. Pasha is…[Read more]

Both names are good, but I prefer Outopian Wings.

Esmeralda, how about Citrine handles long boring speeches and your characters handle the actual news? That seems to be what’s going on, but I’m just looking for some clarity. Good job on your entry too.

@naiya-dyani @emberynus-the-dragonslayer @urwen-starial @esmeralda-gramilton @dakota @mayacat @kari-karast
