Nods Okay, cool. I’ve been writing my WIP completely by hand so I can edit it when I type it out and remove a whole bunch of the yucky stuff. XD But everything else I write is on the computer.

Yep. XD

@kari-karast

Hey, V, do you normally write on a computer or by hand? (XD Or are you one of those crazy people who types out everything on their mobile device…?)

XD Oh, no… I got it. Flynn started the “Mother” thing, “Owl Head” started the ____ Gothel thing, and you have now started the “Mama Gothel” thing.

Laughs Sorry, V.

Laughs It was Flynn. At least, the “mother” part. Not sure where “mama” came from.

Of course I do. I was born there. Smirks 

XD Yeahh… I’m still not actually gonna do that.

Wait, “Owl Head” was the one who started that? Frowns  I’m gonna need to have a chat with him.

I DO, TOO. Or at least, close enough. I’ll just bomb the whole state. 😉

The only problem is that the merged photo is literally a merged photo of myself and her. So… you can kinda see who I am in it. Frowns again 

Yeah, ’cause “Mama Gothel” is so amazing…  Snorts I don’t know why I put up with this stuff.

Oh, wait. Nevermind. Writing. That’s why I put up with it. Shrugs I guess you can stay alive for a little while longer, V. Winks 

Whispers But if you keep this up, I’m gonna switch my profile pic to the real “Mama Gothel” picture. Grins evilly 

@evelyn XD I think most of my stories from when I was young were in such a dilapidated state that they were disposed of long ago. Laughs I’m not one to save things that I don’t like or keep them for sentimental reasons. (:

Mhm. Nods That’s true. Though I’d prefer random people calling me by my real name if I paid for something like that. Thus… the real name. XD

Frowns V… How many times do I have to tell you to stop calling me that? Lazily tosses a grenade your way

But ya, that’s why you see my pen name here. (;

Sees an MBTI debate…

Debates internally…

…Gives up and joins in

Alright, first off, I gotta say that this is awesome. I love seeing friendly debates. XD

@theinconceivable1 I find it interesting that you would suggest a superiority of some functions over others for the reason that thinkers have more self-control than feelers. MBTI isn’t…[Read more]

XD I can write both well, but my writing changes dramatically between the two styles. Poetry is so much more free-flowing, while my fiction writing tends to be more suspenseful and action-packed. (;

@emma-starr XD Thanks! Poetry is one of those things that just kinda pops out of nowhere for me, and I never really know if it works until I finish it. Laughs

@taylorclogston Hey, thanks! XD You don’t have to be worried about joining a conversation. “The more, the merrier.”

Yeah, totally. Puns have to be very spontaneous to work well, and people will often try to tell them deliberately instead (which is where the effect of humor is lost).

Just wrote this poem yesterday about the recent dumping of snow we received. (;

Life all around

Fresh and new

I’m filled with hope

The day is new

Bright, warm sun

Gentle breeze

A day gone well

My life at ease

 

Shadows roll

The sky turns grey

Oh, can I make it

Can I fight through this next day?

Cold seeps in

Hope starts to d…[Read more]

Oh, yes. Humor is built on relations. You’re going to laugh at something if you connect with it. If I told you a dramatic story about the day I had a cold shower, you’d be far more likely to laugh than if I told you about the day my cousins and I played a board game. Why? Because you know what cold showers are like. (Hopefully… or this is a…[Read more]

Hey, @evelyn Thanks!

I joined Ydubs this February. It’s been a blast, and I’ve already learned so much about writing. I’ve been writing seriously for about five years, I think. But writing in general started when I was in Kindergarten. XD I was one of those kindergartners who could read really well and always had a book in my hand, so writing…[Read more]

So, what..? You used your character’s name instead?

Hm. I see.  Is now very confused, miss Winter, but alright. 

XD I’ve completed most of my projects because

1. I had to (School assignment, assignment for a church project, ministry something-or-other)

2. I can’t stand unfinished projects. (;

I started to like writing when I began to hate math. It happened simultaneously. XD (‘Cept now I d…[Read more]

Facedesk I knew that. Duh. You and your pseudonyms…

@the-fledgling-artist

Hello! Nice to meet you!

Yeah, we met a few months ago on Ydubs. Whispers to V Kari? Is that your real name? Or another pseudonym?

Hm. Finished stories… It depends. I’ve got a couple dozen half-completed ones. Maybe a dozen completed stories, but they’re all short stories. And then that third of a novel I gave up on…[Read more]
