Mairin Atha replied to the topic {Story Theory – Week 17} Journaling and Story Writing in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 7 months ago
Ooh, journaling!
I LOVE the idea of journaling, but I’m… bad at being consistent with it. I got a line-a-day journal last year, though, and I’ve been really consistent with that… I really recommend it, @jane-maree!! ๐
Other than that I have several journals that do different things. XD I have my normal journal, where I write down thoughts,…[Read more]

Sorry I’ve been scarce the past couple of weeks! We’ve been really busy lately, and I’m hoping that it will even out soon! XD But I wanted to let you know that I might still be busy in the next few weeks, but I’ll try to stay active! ๐ <3

Living for the first time in a city outside the country of Alintha, Myrantul dreads any event that might disrupt the tenuous peace of life in Haethir’s Unaccepted sector.

I’ve definitely struggled with some (coughย allย coughย ๐ ) of these. Especially in my first drafts.

I like the piano idea, but it seems like it will be difficult to end in a surprising way and not in an… expected way, maybe? But I’m sure we could do it! ๐ I also love #3, but it sounds a little clichรฉ to me, like something I’ve read several times. I really like @jessie-rae ‘s idea, with a few tweaks.
