Your wip?? Is?? EvERYwheRE??? NO WAY MINE TOO. *eyes sparkle* lol we have so much in common. B’)Your method is not stupid, haha, it’s completely valid. >:o!! I have a friend who likes to just sit and think about her stories and let them play like movies in her head to figure them out. Sounds like a pretty awesome…[Read more]

@eden-anderson
Ooohh, yeah, tone can be tricky. I always have to fight with my stories a bit to make the tone feel lighter because if I’m not intentional about it they can get pretty heavy. What genre are you writing?? Do you feel like your story is teaching or stretching you in new ways?Kids can definitely be annoying and exhausting. XD Hhhhhh…[Read more]

The Fledgling Artist replied to the topic This isn't what it looks like… But how do I show readers that? in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 11 months ago
Hmm, is adjusting their ages out of the question? If the girl is significantly older or younger than the guys readers may be less likely to consider shipping anyone. (The bigger the age gap, the less likely, haha. Might need to be more than a couple years) Personally, this is my favorite go-to when I don’t want characters to get shipped together.…[Read more]

These are three of my MCS :DD The girl in the middle is Cerise, and she’s the primary protagonist. Well, sort of. It’s a bit complicated, haha. The guys on her sides are Basil (left) and Orwell (right). There are two other secondary characters, but I’m trying to keep my cast on the smaller side.. -

@deeprun I have never read captain underpants, and stubbornly refuse to discredit it (and stories similar) as being an invalid form of art/story, but I’m right there with you in feeling discontent with the existence of such stories. (Mehaps that’s contradictory of me, but that’s where I find myself. XD)
I wonder if that circles back to the idea…[Read more]

@deeprun I believe the most concise and short way to explain what kind of stories usually resonate with me, are the stories that juggle and explore the relationship between joy and beauty, and pain and grief. –I know more emotional stories aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but I guess they’re mine, haha. That being said, there is the element of the…[Read more]

I’m not a very experienced writer myself, but I really think the answer to that question varies from writer to writer. You’ll just have to experiment and find out what works best for you. ^.^ If you want my personal opinion you could always write it now while you’re excited about it, and then rewrite it again later after writing the scenes that…[Read more]

@mischievous-thwapling I think I realized storytelling (not specifically writing, in my case, haha.) was important to me sometime around 2016, but the interest was probably there before I was consciously aware of it. I would love to hear about the book you’re working on, should you ever have the urge (tbh what writer doesn’t feel this every now…[Read more]

@deeprun
Yes, see! Exactly, !! Idk, I don’t really feel right about bashing anything anyone makes creatively (that’s a completely different rant though X’D) so to say it in a way that doesn’t belittle other comics/graphic novels, I just don’t feel like I vibe with most stories told through that medium.Though again that’s a complicated statement…[Read more] -

@millennium Hey, it’s okay, motivation is a tricky thing. But it always comes back when it’s meant to. :’) Glad your life otherwise fairs well. Certainly, something to be thankful for. <3 If your itch to write comes back, you’ll have to tag me and let me know what you’re working on.
@eden-anderson Thank you, I do too. <3 I’m sorry life has…[Read more]

@deeprun Haha ’round SE I just take the stalking as a given. 🤣 So you are pardoned. That my friend is a very complex question, haha. You probably didn’t mean it as such, so I’ll try not to ramble. Too much. Just putting it bluntly, I’m a little particular about what I enjoy reading, I guess. The types of stories I usually find in comics aren’t…[Read more]

@wingiby-iggib If I only drew when I felt I was good at it I would have significantly less art to account for. :’) Haha.
Dude, your wip sounds awesome! Sounds like you’ve put a lot of work into ironing it out. :o!! How long has it been in the works??
My most current project is a comic called Within the Brume. It’s gone through enough changes…[Read more]

Yes, I did draw my profile picture! They are two of my ocs, though they’re not from one of my more serious projects. They’re from a collaborative story that some of my friends and I started– and don’t take very seriously. Haha. They are basically space elves. Skip, and his little sister…[Read more]

Question:
Is it possible to take a very heavy Adventure story and change it into something that feels more slice of life, without sacrificing the adventure itself? Essentially, how can I take an inherently adventure-type-story, and turn it into something that feels more like slice of life, without changing the fact that the characters are still on…[Read more] -

Hello,
I’m gonna try to keep this short ’cause super long intro threads are scary. 👀
My name is Anna, but you’re welcome to call me Fledge if you prefer. I joined Story Embers back in 2018(??) when it was still new and shiny, but since I’ve not been around much I figured I’d make a new intro thread to meet all the new faces.I’m not actually a…[Read more]
