@noah-cochran @this-is-not-an-alien
Also, if none of the other judges reply by tomorrow night, are you okay with just Erynne and Calidris’ decisions? Assuming they pick the same person. If not, maybe the two contestants can do a quick tiebreaker with a new prompt.
Anyway, I thought that the winner could create prompt #2, and then up to five p…[Read more]

Oh shoot I forgot about you. Just you specifically, I remembered everyone else.
Am I still a judge? Never mind Im doing it anyway

Yours is definitely a girl.
I could real feel the intense emotion and it definitely wasn’t cliched. However, the style of the writing wasn’t the easiest to…[Read more]

As the castle groaned, Nithel’s eyes widened, and he stepped back against the wall. Then as stones started to drop his lips parted in shock. He wanted to hide underneath something but there was nowhere to hide. No shelter from the rock. Nothing. And Alessio, standing right in the middle as debris fell.
Nithel wanted to order him to move, but move…[Read more]

I felt weak. Nauseous, almost. But it had to be done. Even if the fear was enveloping me like smoke, filling my lungs, choking me. My right knee went into sudden spasm of trembling, even though I tried to will it to be still. I didn’t want them to see my fear.
I took a step toward the entrance of the cave. I suddenly imagined myself panicki…[Read more] -

@this-is-not-an-alien @noah-cochran
So yeah, hide the gender not the emotion. In fact you should be showing the emotion. The original prompt was to write from the perspective of an opposite gender than yours, but I switched it up a bit. Sorry if that’s confusing.
Also, I meant for the prompt war to only be one-on-one, but maybe it’s better with…[Read more]

Okay…so it says I posted but not a post I see. Sorry if this is a double post, then:
*grins* thank you! (Meant this as part of the earlier response, but was called away) 🙂
Mwahahaha. I’m delighted. (B/c I’m an author, i.e. monster.) I hoped to make some ripples, but being in shock for 3-4 hours…[Read more]

@this-is-not-an-alien Thank you. 🙂 (Sorry I didn’t say that in the last post. I was called away to watch a movie.)
@denai-christianson hey cool. I mean, I hoped it would cause ripples, but I didn’t expect long-lasting effects. I’m an author, (i.e. a monster) so I’m positively thrilled that it was such a shock. 🙂 I’ve been scheming this…[Read more]

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! You can write in any POV but your female POVs tend to be so obvious
Hey, that’s a good thing. Male sounding female characters are not a good thing.
it’ll be too easy to guess which sex you write a POV from unless you change your game a little.
So just keep the PoV’s sex hidden, not their emotions?

Noah Cochran replied to the topic Mini Prompt Wars in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 10 months ago
So you’re saying that I’m supposed to hide the character’s sex by using “they” instead of “he or she?” Or am I being forced to write in first person?
you’re awful at lady’s POVs
If I’m writing in a lady’ pov, then how do I hide their sex? I am so confused right now.
Clarity required to proceed.

I’m quite busy Cathy, but for you, I’ll do this once.
So let’s make sure I understand this right.
you’re awful and lady’s POVs so this prompt’ll be good for you
I’m awful and you’re a lady? That’s an interesting sentence–to say the least.
of a character experiencing a strong emotion they have to hide. You also…

Hey, yo, @noah-cochran, you’re awful and lady’s POVs so this prompt’ll be good for you *Gandolf voice* and most amusing for me 😛

Yay! Thanks, guys! At first nobody responded, and I thought nobody was interested so I was kinda bummed out, but this is awesome! 😂

@this-is-not-an-alien I figured you’d be around sooner or later, after that post. 😉 I wanted to see how the characters (and the people–I’m on to your stalking, Cathy) would react if someone died in the castle.

“Alright,” Alessio said, and most looked his directions. “Most of you each come from different worlds with different powers or capabilities, one of the only constants is that you all have secrets.”
*Nithel has no clue what his ‘power’/’capability’ was*
