But it’s honestly hard for me to tell. When I read back anything I write I’m more or less lost in the setting that I’m trying to build
People that write in all caps intrigue me
And a ping for @KirkpattieCake since they gave me initial feedback
I can't write in cursive anymore. at least, not legibly.
And I write a lot less rigid most of the time.
I couldn't to begin with lol
That is the type of writing I was taught to use when filling out journals for lab reports in High School and College. Clear and legible
Youre not apart of my generation then lol
I'm left-handed. I had my left wrist and hand damaged in an accident when I was fourteen; now I just sort of scribble with my right.
But anyways, always happy for any feedback on the content, and anything else really. Don’t be afraid to be blunt, i promise that I’m harsher with myself than others might be x3
I’m technically a millennial
Barely in the range for a 90’s kid as well
Why do you hate periods so much .
LOL I predate the internet.
Because I wanted to write a one sentence paragraph :D
Dang ok
But for me it's kinda overwhelming, esp when ur trying to introduce me to the world
lmao, that opening sentence just got longer
But really, I remember having to analyze an essay that was easily three times the length of that that was one entire sentence with nothing except semicolons commas and one period
If it makes you feel better this isn’t going to be the opening to a novel or anything it’s just a section that I have yet to place other than knowing it will not be the start or the end
If it comes after a scene/chapter break, this is still the placement into the scene -- and I think it does a good job, but it could be slicker.
Like if you imagine how it would be read out loud, where you'd get the emphasis/pauses/breaths
I'm down for another sprint if anyone wants to join? <:ExcitedPepe:781198443665424424>
```In spite of the afternoon sun, the markets, mainstreet, and alleys within Fort Leer sagged low, damp with the weight of the breathless, hungry, and exhausted.```
Like, that would be my editorial suggestion to slick the sentence/reading, but keep the mood, which is strong, it's still over worded imo which breaks the vibe of what sucks you in
Gotcha
Wordiness is a definite weakness of mine ^^’
@MofoDoggo I'm down for some but tomorrow
I'll be down in just a bit.
Also I promise that the pics of handwritten pages is only temporary!
WHAT. THIS ISNT HOW YOURE GONNA PUBLISH IT?!
It’s just all I can do at the moment except tap away on my phone xD
Ok... only if u promise ;-;
I mean I can still hand write chunks if that’s preferred
```Two expended and beleaguered men shouldered the burden of their lordship's cart, careful lest they disturb their cargo;```
Do you see the pacing changes?
Yeah. And I started to read it back to myself and definitely saw what you meant
Or rather, felt, because I only got 2/3 of the way through before I had to stop and catch my breath properly
```In spite of the afternoon sun, the markets, mainstreet, and alleys within Fort Leer sagged low, damp with the weight of the breathless, hungry, and exhausted; two expended and beleaguered men shouldered the burden of their lordship's cart, careful lest they disturb their cargo; behind the cart, more guards, marching in steel footfalls; their presence was a promise: anything more than watching would be rewarded with a trip to the dirty ground;```
