yeah, don't xD

your writing will not only suffer because you rely on dark cliches but it will also be offensive to some

I was only called out a couple times thankfully

my work wasn't read by many

and remember, no one in the bible was perfect, except for God and Jesus ofcource

oh, 100% lol

just for me, my fear is I don't want to get distracted by my own story, misleading myself and my readers

that happens a lot too. I'm no expert (heck, I'm a beginning level writer) but have you ever gotten lost in details?

like out of the blue you just worldbuild like crazy

I bet I have

I'll go months without having written anything and then *boom*
"The plague starts with coughing up blood. Then the boils begin. It's an airborne disease and is basically the Black Death with boils."

(that's the least nasty bit)

I'm writing it for a dark (haha, said I wouldn't do that anymore but here we are) take on Cinderella

(the sisters aren't ugly, they're sick)

but yeah, I'll just suddenly write about all this stuff about carriages and towns and the people in it and then I'll write a bunch of dialogue

I’m not too confident about what I’m saying but wasn’t Edgar Allen Poe a religious man who also wrote seemingly random stories that somehow manages to include the topic of faith. It might be interesting to look at if what I’m saying is accurate but I’m not confident at all

that's actually really fascinating if its true

ok so it turns out he was sort of Christian

but not really since he rejected the Bible's teachings

Ah ok

can't pick and chose what you believe when it comes to the word of God

Exactly

Boiiii we have a writer's meet up bloc 🎊

yea we do, I am thrilled. By the way, I like your username, very hummorous😁

Thank you! Made me happy that it beings a smile to your face!

I probably shouldn't say this (I'm waaaaaay to trusting) but I was using my real name as a username, my Mom didn't like it so she came up with a username for me and I love it, it fits me lol

when was the logging boom?

Late 1800s, early 1900s

awiesome, my favorite time period

Lmao. It works! Welcome here, Sam 😆

Thanks

That username was actually a bit of an accident. I love british trains and so my name is supose to be Sam-B-Shunter, but without the spaces, it looks like something else! 🤣

Ooo

AHA I just noticed that!

It still fits me tho... 😁

oh neat

A WRITING STICK

I mean channel

lol I like that

would anybody be interested in hosting a challenge or something during weekend? 🤔 small ones to encourage writing

That sounds lit!

hosting a challenge? Maybe, depends on what kind of challenge yall are talking about I might host it. Might be good for me to help my own skills as well

maybe a word prompt? or a add-another-sentence challenge?

Hmm, might consider it

Okay so I’ve written out these really detailed characters, but I have no idea how to actually turn them into a story <:CursedEmoji:763140778770825247>

we can use them for our challenges <:KEK:795742276549607456> each person can "borrow" your character & character's background and write up a scene

Aw nah y’all are gonna steal my characters <:troll_face:726878856585281557>

<:troll_face:726878856585281557>

or: we can do it in an alternative genre 🤔 so if you're writing fantasy, we can pick like sickfic or something like that

Oh you’re right

But you’re still not getting my characters <:tyler:733204434682773525> @isoboto

How did I miss this new channel?

how about you gave us the names only and we try to write up a background for them? <:KEK:795742276549607456>

NO.

yes, you did. welcome!

*My* characters <:LeoDecaprio:768140752525852742>

I can now bore everyone about my story ideas

how about give us (some) character backgrounds and we try to guess the names?

Same! Lol

i'll always make time for good stories ❤️

How about you stop trying to steal my characters or I’m suing

I wish I could find an artist to collaborate with.

OOH! Do you make comics or what?

i was trying to help 🥺

I I write I can't draw

Lies

i can volunteer 👀 you'll be my first practice tho

what kind of styles are you looking for?

I have some I used in a character generator but they must be on my old pc

Don’t trust him @Vinz Clortho he’s trying to steal my characters already <:troll_face:726878856585281557>

I thought I moved them I will get them and show you my ideas

i draw in anime-ish style, tho, so i don't know if it's something you're okay with

My main character is basically Captain America with the power of the Silver Surfer

I need to get the motivation to get up and move to my desk to write ngl

that sounds good

*Dark Cinderella ain't gonna write itself*

Ha! I felt that I haven’t written in forever

aye! did drac discover this channel yet lmao

Do itttt

I've added in politics and a literal plague. What's funny is that I came up with this years ago

This script is going to be whack

You *what*

sound F U N

The script revolves around a Japanese song called Cendrillon made for Hatsune Miku and Kaito

That is fine I like anime

Me and some friends were making a fan project that didn't go through because *cough* I never finished the script

Sorry I am working and I get calls

(online friends)

If I quit chatting that is why.

oof. we shouldn't distract you then

I came here LOL

LOL

I took lots of liberties though and the only remaining idea from the original is a ball where the princess assassinates the prince

Or tries to

hatsune Miku & kaito are two names i haven't heard in a long time. brings back memories

This man really be on D i s c o r d during work hours lmfao

Right?

~~me when lectures came on~~

Honestly *same*

My main character is targeted by a msm person because he goes by the name Captain Crusader. The guy accuses him of being Islamophobic
