ok don't die

Time · November 17, 2022 23:30:43

Ok I lied I might just put up this one post because I'm wondering your guy's thought on it.

I have a few ideas in my mind for stories, but I just don't know how I should start and act on writing or thinking of them... I know there are multiple styles for creating stories, such as writing on the fly or writing following a set plan, but I just don't know what to do.

I'll probably end up watching a tutorial on yt or something by some point but atm I feel stuck.

i usually write with an idea in mind, sometimes a few beats i want to hit, and then just slam the keyboard until either i'm done or i'm stuck. if i get stuck i look back to what caused me to get stuck and write myself out of it

SpecterTheGreat · November 18, 2022 12:29:01

I understand your inactivity notice dude, good luck with schoolwork and all that (:

Tbh story creation is really hard for me so I get that too. Something that may help if you have a very specfic idea or something for an scene could be just writing it down and connecting parts that you aren't sure of with [then this happens] and just continue writing what's in your mind. I'm not sure if that makes sense haha

the fact that you are able to write yourself out of a writing hole is in and of itself is extremely impressive

This is going to sound extremely blasphemous but have you ever heard of an outline
even basic outlines can help

this has been your daily unsolicited writing advice from Eliza

Time · November 20, 2022 14:43:54

Yes an outline with events I think will be key for story development. Even more efficient.

I think having to write out of those holes may be exhausting, but I feel it is def more feeling and from the heart or something or whatever you use to describe.

Isn't it weird that I expected to be more active over the break but as it turns out I'm not, and maybe even less active than normal?

GalaxianExplosion · November 24, 2022 00:09:16

To be honest, I think it's become a trend by this point.
I'm not too sure if this part is accurate, but I guess my conjecture is that we normally are more active here because we treat it as a break sort of area, but when we actually go on break we choose to do some other things too, or use the time to make up doing some activities that we don't have as much time to allocate to usually.
In essence? Imo, not really, but in a much wordier way lol. Feel free to disagree.

Yeah that's exactly what I was thinking. I send plenty of posts on here over my phone bc it's convenient and it's usually when I'm doing something busy.

Time · November 25, 2022 16:46:50

Awh jee what is Time thinking about now??

I'm thinking about art again. I need to find a way to color things quickly and efficiently. Also shading too maybe. I wanna try using watercolor brushes at some point, but maybe I should learn a quick and easy way to color my pieces first.

Time · November 27, 2022 20:45:46

Let's see if I become more active tomorrow....

Time · November 30, 2022 01:47:17

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa

Time · December 1, 2022 12:48:04

Bro why am I so inactive 😭😭 I wanna be more active

I mean I know I'm not inactive, but I'm just less active. Still I wanna be more active

Time · December 2, 2022 02:10:59

Ooh new theme. Nice!

Time · December 2, 2022 13:49:05

I like the colors this time around. The blue/purple things

Time · December 3, 2022 19:15:27

I feel like I could say some wild stuff (in comparison to the standards of this message board) but idk if I would think to do so.

Why is that little girl spinning around, what is she saying, and why is it popular

Its fate

I read "its fate" and read it as though it was there for dramatic effect and did not realize what Time meant until Galaxian posted [sob emoji] I am very literate

Basket Cat · December 4, 2022 21:38:42

hASHIRE SORI YO--

Time · December 4, 2022 22:10:51

Someone give me a history lesson on it

GalaxianExplosion · December 5, 2022 15:54:56

First off, the girl is Nero Claudius (yes, the Roman emperor)
She's a character from Fate/Extra who's known in part for her horrible singing. She constructed an entire theater back in her day and would pretty much force her people to listen to her (since she's known for being a tyrant and all that)
So this meme basically plays off of Nero being in a cute chibi style/Santa outfit and her singing a parody of "Jingle Bells." I think it's pretty clear that the most iconic part of the song is "PADORU PADORU," which is Japanese onomatopoeia for the sound of reindeer hooves

As a disclaimer, I don't play Fate/Extra so I don't have context beyond this. Which is honestly how memes go, I think. You don't know where they came from and why they were created but it's still funny

Standard fate genderbending

Thank you for history lesson Galaxian
