  • CRASH

    Miles watched in horror as a section of the ceiling began crumbling and fell to the floor. Suddenly someone shoved him down a tunnel along with a few others. Miles stumbled in and came to a stop before assessing the situation.

    “Where are the others?” Miles shouted above the din. “Where are they?!?”

    Caleb motioned back towards the cavern.…[Read more]

  • @ethan-leonard

    yeah…I’d imagine :’)

    I’ll try to write Kit and Val’s soon!  They’re giving me some trouble ngl…I guess because the idea for my next post is kind of giving me some serious secondhand embarrassment XD

    But, I’ve been in a writing mood recently and I’ll see if I can get them to cooperate!

  • @calidris @this-is-not-an-alien @e-n-leonard

    Wow ok. Definately not something I expected to come back to…

     

    Sorry I haven’t been on lately, my job has been a little busy. Hopefully with Labor Day past it’ll calm down…

     

    *wondere where Saevus is and what he is up to* When y’all are ready to continue the fight let me know, Saevus is ready lol…

  • “Did…did you just throw bandages at me?” The blind guy said with such pure incredulous indignation Nathair was dying. “Punk did you actually just throw bandages at me?!”

    He’d expected throwing bandages at the guy to get a reaction, but he hadn’t expected this reaction and he honestly didn’t regret it in the slightest.

    “Why in the Endless Sea w…[Read more]

  • @e-n-leonard

    Whelp, that’d be me. Does this character castle emanate those ND vibes Cathy was talking about?

    Honestly, it does ngl XD I think the internet, in general, is WAY easier to work with for ND folks. Several reasons: I can infodump uninterrupted and if someone is bored with it they can just skim and no harm done. I can use and overuse t…[Read more]

  • Ok so first of all, welcome to the club XD

    For me, the character castle at least feels very ND friendly (I mean, judging by you guys’ positive reaction to the vulture vomit idea, the constant infodumping…), but it’s cool to know that there’s others of us here!

    So, to answer your question, I actually really do!  So, for me personally, I tend…[Read more]

    *tries to breathe and chokes on glitter and laughter*

    @anyone who wants to join in XD  Whelp, that’d be me. Does this character castle emanate those ND vibes Cathy was talking about?

    My parents didn’t diagnose me for the reasons previously discussed, and I don’t “diagnose” my characters.…[Read more]

  • “Did … did you just throw bandages at me? Punk did you actually just throw bandages at me?!”

    I cannot emphasize enough how vitally important it is for me to focus on this right now.

    Ya’know, as opposed to the end of the world in the form of a cave-in.

    It’s a common threat punk! I know it is. I always figured that’s how I’d go, what with my…[Read more]

  • Absolutely and no problem, I’m behind replying to emails rn so I totally get taking a while to respond! XD

    I have not read that but it sounds really interesting, I’ll have to look it u – *the literal swamp of books waiting for be to read them piled up over the years; NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!* I’ll totally have to look it up!

    That’s a very good qu…[Read more]

  • Cathy replied to the topic Character Castle in the forum Fantasy Writers 3 years, 7 months ago

    @ethan-leonard @ragnarok @rusted-knight @hannahrenner @kimlikesart

    Ok!! So…there’s been a lot of clutter and confusion in the Character Castle and it’s been quiet for a bit so…”IT’S 12 PM DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CHARACTERS ARE???”
    Everybody tell everybody what your characters are doing and where they are and we’ll see where to go from there? 🙂

    *Materializes in a cloud of pink glitter while eating chocolate cake with sprinkles*

    Greetings y’all, did anyone really think you could talk about one of my special interests without me enthusiastically interrupting?

    Soo… Cathy, you’re ADHD, I’m Autistic, and Calidris is both. We’ve…[Read more]

  • @this-is-not-an-alien

    Yeah!  I was pretty young at the time – I actually can’t remember why my parents got me tested but it’s probably because I was having trouble concentrating at school.

    Hans Asperger was an Austrian scientist who collaborated with the Nazis and sent a lot of disabled/autistic children to their deaths (the Nazis were…[Read more]

  • @adnyole

    I have a few thoughts!

    Umm…so HUGE ramble incoming XD

    So, I’m actually in a (kind of?) similar boat here – A few months ago, I realized that the love interest of my story, Kit, is bisexual – AND TO BE CLEAR I’m also trying to pursue this carefully, and from a Biblical perspective (that homosexuality is a sin.)  Like you, I’ve prayed…[Read more]

  • @this-is-not-an-alien Hi! Thanks so much for the response and I am sorry it has taken me this long to respond myself. I appreciate your perspective and ability to explore trauma. My goal is to have a similarity in weight to one of my favorite book series Chronicles of the Kings by Lynn Austin (highly recommend if you haven’t read it). One of the…[Read more]

  • “Yes.” Sir Scary answered tensely. Alessio bit his lower lip. Don’t say it don’t say it don’t say it Nithel would not want you to say it…

    “Were you the…last person on the face of the earth when you proposed to her?” He asked…coughed, rubbed his jaw and instantly tried to “cover up” for saying that by blurting out questions to Arsene.

    It thundere…[Read more]

  • “If your burning vengeance is so great, then come and defeat me.”

    So. That sounded ominous.

    And sure enough, a verrry ominous crack sounded overhead.

    “Before we begin coming up with a plan, might I propose running very fast?” Nathair said calmly. Until – that is – a slab of stone crashed from the ceiling. “Right now!”

    He shoved the first per…[Read more]

  • The thundering in the sky told Hades he needed to hurry.

    “YOU’RE MARRIED!” Alessio blurted out.

    In a tensed voice, Hades answered. “Yes.”

    This sounded familiar.

    “She must have very low standards.”

    Oh, <b>this d*mn brat was annoying.</b>

    “Why aren’t these handcuffs off now?” Alessio said in a strained voice. “Anyway, what’s your actual name…[Read more]

  • WAIT YOU GOT AN OFFICIAL DIAGNOSIS!?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!

    I’m too broke for that. 😂

    I actually don’t know the origins of the name but I do know I haven’t pursued getting a diagnosis because of ablism – among other reasons – and malpractice. Worst fear being put on drugs to “cure” me just for science-experiment for them and then getting drug…[Read more]

  • YES BECAUSE I HAVE IT TOO (actually I was diagnosed with ADD and Asperger’s back when ADD and Asperger’s were actual diagnoses, but now they’re not so I just have plain old ADHD and autism, which I’m fine with because the origins of the name are very creepy and kinda related to eugenics and the Nazi regime.  Kinda interesting story behind it…[Read more]
