Thank you for the tip!  That would work a lot better than what i currently wrote. I know Jake is technically waking up in a strange scenario, but it would probably be better if he didn’t struggle and waited to see what would happen.

Again, thank you for the fighting tips! They are certainly one of my many weak spots…[Read more]

THAT’S THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!! I literally laughed out loud that’s hysterical

*bows*

We need character castle memes, so much memeable stuff happens here XD

Hahahahah, yesssss! 😆

oh I know it lol!! Professional procrastinating and constant redrafting.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh a lot…? (nix almost cried, I did cry, a lot…😭😭😭)

Lol, I figured out that my MC’s scar symbolizes choice, and I learned the story behind that aaaaaaaand the story behind why he compulsively tells the truth in every situation even though he’s very very…[Read more]

KHALON

Tall Girl gave me one last withering glare before turning her back on Khalon.

“Don’t worry about Liorah, she has a big mouth and a sharp tongue,” Sleeping Guy said apologetically. “I’m Aydin, what’s your name?”

“I’m Khalon,” Khalon answered shortly. Sleeping-Aydin seemed friendly enough. He wasn’t threatening…[Read more]

Aydin

I was so done with Liorah. I was so completely done with her, she just insisted on being as difficult as possible in every given situation.

“Could you at least try to be nice?” I asked, trying to keep my voice down but rather failing. People were staring and I hated being stared at.

“It’s not just him that’s asking you that. We’re all…[Read more]

@calidris

that was actually completely unintentional!  I wasn’t even thinking about that when I wrote it, but oh my gosh it actually makes sense

You’re still responsible for breaking my heart 😭😭

Huh.  When I was first thinking about it, I thought he and Skia would both feel awful about it, because they’re no longer “useful.”  But that’s act…

“Maybe.”

Maybe what? That I won’t sink as low?

The young man squinted up at me. “Why are you so ashamed? It’s not your fault your village is immoral and crime-ridden, is it? So you’ve really got nothing to be embarrassed about. Unless it is your fault, and in tha…[Read more]

@rose-colored-fancy

Khalon can make the first move if that’s fine with you. If what I post is not going to spark an interaction with Aydin, just let me know. Oh, and by the way, Khalon is no longer blowing his trumpet and has cautiously inched around Qatar.

Khalon breathed deeply. He had not ten minutes in this place and was already b…[Read more]

@inkhorn

That’s hilarious that you names one of your characters Khalon. And I would love to have Khalon interact with Aydin. I would like to see how he would react to a traumatized ex-assassin.

Awesome! I’d love to see their reactions too XD Do you want me to make Aydin make the first move or do you have any ideas? (It’s out of character for A…[Read more]

@noah-cochran

They did eventually salt the roads, but left the house at like 6:50 in the morning, so they didn’t have much time to do it before we were driving.

Huh, that’s odd! With us they usually salt it the night before. I’m glad it was cleared up though!

Technically, you write faster than I do, I just force myself to get up early and put in t…

@inkhorn

Okay so something really funny happened XD I was naming a minor side character (He’s just there to fill a background role, he’s barely a character XD) and I was running through a list of names and picked Khalon because it sounded cool.

I had the faint idea that it sounded familiar but didn’t remember about your character until a while…[Read more]

Same!  I wrote in third person a lot, and I don’t think I started trying out first person until I wrote Saskia’s first POV.  It’s way easier to get into your character’s heads, but descriptions are harder, at least for me.  But that’s one of the beautiful things about this game!  It’s all about experimentation and learning 🙂

Yikes!  Are you…[Read more]

@mamaauthoress growth is growth, even if it occurs at the rate of a redwood tree lol

Aww man!  Well if SE ever lets you, I would love to see some!

Idk Ruan, are you sure about that?

Ruan’s quite physically intimidating, right?  At least, that’s the impression I have!  Something tells me he’s kind of oblivious though…

Really?  I’m gla…[Read more]

Basil:

“I … come from a den of thieves,” the man mumbled, eyes downcast. “I was raised in a village full of immorality and crime, the son of a single mother.”

I narrow my eyes up at him.  He sounds embarrassed, no, ashamed.  But of what?  I thought all areas of human habitation are full of immorality and crime.  And isn’t it normal to be the chi…[Read more]

So, if two guards have Jake between them, and at the beginning of the scene, Jake is unconscious, his body would be hanging slack between them, lower than their waistline.  Any striking to be done would be below the guard’s waistline with Jake’s body angled down to a slant to the floor.  A knee to the stomach would require one of the guards to rel…[Read more]

“What’s your opinion?”

Nithel’s blood ran cold a moment when he heard those words, upon realizing they were directed at him.

The dragon rumbled, “We should move on.”

The thing’s presence was unsettling, but Nithel thought the phrase had saved him from answering. Nithel slowly stood with his new bag, sheathing his knife.

“Noted.” Alessio looke…[Read more]
