(Tagging everyone since the posts only seem to show up in emails)

Heya, y’all, experiencing some technical difficulties, I’ll try to reply soon!

@sparrowhawke

I see, that sounds quite difficult. You know, if anything, it makes your gift for writing even more amazing, because you are able to overcome your obstacles and create stories! That’s something to be proud of 😉

Oh jeepers my guesses were so close, not so bad at all for my first try lol. She does look a lot like a teacher actually,…[Read more]

@irishcelticredflowercrown

Well done! Yours is pretty accurate, almost eerily so haha

Yay! 😛

And you’re right she is quite anti-social to some people, she actually mildly suffers from a condition called aphasia which she was never really treated for. It basically means that she has trouble coming up with vocabulary, so she either does sign l…

@erynne @sparrowhawke

Thank you guys so much, I really appreciate it! I’ll see what I can do XD

@sparrowhawke

I’ll do yours now 🙂

Name: Tanya Baker

Age: 18-21 I’d say?

Career, role in story: Best friend or the smart college roommate of the MC

Personality: Warm friendly and loyal. Quite sensitive and quiet, she is always found in the library with her nose in a book. She wouldn’t be very talkative around guys either. But once you get to…[Read more]

@sparrowhawke

Thank you so much, that means a lot! 🙂 Have you had sight difficulties for your whole life? I know one girl who only got glasses later on in her life because she decided to stare at the sun for a while…

@sparrowhawke

Yeah it’s funny isn’t it haha, I wasn’t expecting anyone to be that accurate XD. Thanks, I’m glad you think so! I wanted my character to have some kind of a disability because I feel like that’s underrepresented in fiction. She was originally partially deaf but I changed it something that I could relate to more. I came across…[Read more]

@sparrowhawke

Wow your guesses were almost spot on! Impressive 🙂

Name: Emily? Maylie? Mandie? Idk, something feminine, but a bit modern-sounding, if that makes sense

Hehe you were very close! It’s Mayra, which I actually think is also pretty feminine and modern lol

Teen, 14-15 (I’m leaning more toward 15)

She was originally 15 in the first d…[Read more]

I’m supposed to be doing German homework right now, but this is more fun so…. 😛

@sparrowhawke

Name: Amber Carlson

Age: College-aged. Maybe 21ish 22ish.

Career, role in story: Best friend of the other character you posted.

Personality: Bubbly, optimistic, energetic, always trying to get her friends to go and do something together, like a…[Read more]

@lonathecat

Because, I mean, she’s got a flower crown and looks a little like she’s spacing out. I can resonate with that. XD

LOL, me too XD She (And the next character) are actually part of a series I made of all my female characters with flowers. I tried to pick flowers that suited their personalities, and Faye just seems like a daisy person to…[Read more]

@sparrowhawke

Goodnesss.🤣  You were so much closer than you thought.

1) Name: Promise Wetterling (very old-timey)

2) Age: Around 65 😁  You were like spot-on.

3) Career/Role in Story: Warrior/Head of Secret Service. So yes, she’s an older woman who’s getting back into the adventure. Not so much in fighting, but in leading. She is the g…[Read more]

@arindown @lonathecat

LOL, she really looks like a Lilia, doesn’t she XD

Name: Faye

Age: 16 (You guys were really close there!)

Role in story: She is technically a main character, but she isn’t the protagonist. She does have more of a supportive role but half the second book is from her POV. She does have a guiding role at one point! She’s the…[Read more]

@sparrowhawke

Very cool. Reminds me of the Gamers movies (made by Zombie Orpheus/Dead Gentleman Productions). If you haven’t seen them, I would HIGHLY recommend them, they are hilarious.

@sparrowhawke

Thank you very much! ^_^ Yeah, a lot of posts here only sorta talk about it, if you are interested in reading a little, I posted the prologue in the Fantasy forum.

Literally laughed out loud at Oxford commas. XD

Oh, fun! Tabletop or videogame?

@sparrowhawke

I seriously want to read that road trip book now.

XD Thanks! The amounts of sarcasm there were absolutely scorching, and the road trip also involved a horse described as a demonic mountain goat. XD

@everyone

Y’all are hilarious and all of them sound so great!

@sparrowhawke @r-m-archer

Ya’ll are so good.🤩

*doing a mental checklist of how many my stories do or don’t have*

I think we could see more good sibling relationships. And healthy parent-child relationships.

I also really want to see more of the “left behind” side of romantic relationships. The friends who are no longer the most important in…[Read more]

@sparrowhawke

Yes! Older heroes, absolutely.

@sparrowhawke YES. I AGREE WITH SO MANY OF THESE.

*subtly making notes, plus comparing things to current WIP just for fun*

Ooh! Another one! The main character already being part of an established relationship when the story starts. The romance isn’t a focal point, it’s just a familiar part of their life.

@sparrowhawke

Thanks for the tip! I was definitely wondering if there was a different formula for that.
