Interesting, that sounds like a good post.
So yeah, if you want to to list my name, the title of my work in progress, and give the example you just gave, you’re welcome to. Thanks for asking! 🙂

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.
And you started one week ahead of me, about six weeks ago?? Wow, that’s incredibly fast!
Yeah, I think I started on the third week of December.
I never cease to be both horrified a…

In what way would you mention me exactly? Just list my name and a paraphrased example, or what?
Depending on what you meant, that would probably be fine, but just saying, a first time writing of an unpublished book by a guy who has been writing for less than a year isn’t the best example. xD Maybe someone else would be a better case study.

Okay, so did I say the weather was improving here? Well I take that back. I’m driving me, my brother, and dad to school, and we see snow on the road. Then we get to the highway, and people are going quite slow. Then we get on the highway, and discover it’s slick with frozen snow and some ice. We then begin passing cars in…[Read more]

It happened twice. And then additionally one time someone crashed into me and hit my neck so hard my mask completely tilted. I was very nearly knocked off my feet that time
Sweet. 🙂
Also fun fact that was all the same person because he doesn’t hold back ever. That may also explain why I am shockingly sore even though I only f…

I have a sparkling personality, I know
Yes, that’s what I meant. Lots of sparkles.

It’s me against the horrors of physics and the horrors of physics are winning.
Ah come on, it isn’t that bad, you can do it.

We live in challenging times prophetically, but as writers, we know that God is still in control even when it looks like all things that bring us comfort in life are stripped away.
Amen.

I get a high-school diploma end of next schoolyear! If I… yaknow… pass.
You’ll do fine. 🙂

Well, I’m homeschooled so nothing has changed there XD
Ah. I was/am also homeschooled, I’m just taking some advanced classes in a career placement high school.
But it did slacken up a little again. HEMA resumed, which is awesome. Also I have my first tournament tonight, which is both terrifying and very exciting. It’s a rea…

Obviously, the magnificence of your yelling has not been affected too much by your illness.

Noah Cochran replied to the topic Name Meanings and Comparisons! in the forum Characters 4 years, 2 months ago
Emma my friend, I’m one of the few writers I know who puts very little thought into their characters’ names. I pick names based on how the sound, and if they fit the character (an arbitrary judgement, I admit). I do consider the semantics or syllables of the name to an extent, but usually only in the consider of what groups of…[Read more]

Hey brother, I’ve got one word for you: Banter
Other than that, I love having a character who is always up to shenanigans, or is flippant in behavior. Juxtapose this character’s facetious mind or actions with a serious situation, and humor abounds.

Noah Cochran replied to the topic Is having an annoying sidekick bad? in the forum Characters 4 years, 2 months ago
Hey Tabitha, I’m totally behind that course of action (especially if you have an arc that changes them, I’m working on a character just like that).
I would recommend you hint at their ghost (reason for being annoying) and/or give them a quality that makes them at least slightly likable.
If a side character is annoying the main…[Read more]

Life is going pretty well though. Trying to keep my new year’s schedule, and mange my time properly. You back in school or still at home thanks to your government?

Actually, making your character wear tzit-tzit has quite a few literary perks.
The more I think about it, the more I absolutely agree with you (and I do remember Liorah tugging on her tassels in the character castle several months ago I believe). I was already kinda feeling like my Jewish character didn’t feel that Jewish, so…[Read more]
