Good to see that you are still here! The character banners is how I keep track of who that is sort of active. I'll just add you back when I get home. You are good to post. It's still easy to insert yourself.

Krash Socially Uncomfortable

Member Seen 1 yr ago

I'll start off with @Krash: Your writing is absolutely on point...


Imma be real this made me a little uncomfortable hahaha. Thank you very much for the kind words, I appreciate the recognition tremendously. I've almost always enjoyed writing and, right alongside it, have almost always had nagging self-doubt and imposter syndrome which makes for a nice combination. I do admit that I'm right alongside you with Aeolian; I am quite jealous of how well they manage to maintain their own autonomy within the story. Both following the plot while also both having and pursuing their own goals makes for a much richer story and has always been something I struggled with.

There you are @Rockette. You ready for this?

Even if there's only one post so far, I know a few things about you to make a some comments here. I think you've reached the zenith of your forum writing—that balance between full-on 18th century and contemporary prose is so sweet that I actually get a taste of vanilla and raspberry in my mouth. I absolutely adore your take on present tense to the point of having to actively resist doing it myself. After all these years, you remain the single best writer I've ever met on the internet. I've tried to imitate you so many times—you won't believe—and every time I've felt guilty and ashamed for trying and thinking that I'd be able to replicate what you do. And then there are your characters—oh boy. They're always so flowery, rich, high concept, and full of depth and meaning. Funny thing, after I saw the image for Scylla, the model you use began to appear on my pinterest—spooky.

Ok, I have a post in the works and since I couldn't sleep I decided to add Aaron's thoughts about the team to my sheet. I now present, the thoughts of a sarcastic dick,

Finally got my post up! Might be a few mistakes cause it is 4:11am (the more you know right? I know I'm funny ), but hopefully not too bad.

Wow! Look at that. That's amazing. Great initiative! I'll certainly make room for this kind of stuff after we survive the customary brick wall we ran into called 'summer'.

@metanoia
Not at all bad. Finally some action! I'm glad we're getting some posts, at least. I'm updating the character banners with names, so I'll start adding new ones to character as people post. Here's yours:

Okay, reality check. I realize it's the middle of summer, but I gotta beat this horse so it doesn't completely die. I'll move us forward to some action in my next post. Transitions aren't super fun to write, really, so I don't want that to keep anyone back.

@FollowthePath@nodogs@RezonanceV
We alright over here? Throwing you a friendly nudge.

@metanoia
Let's continue the comments here. I still have your old name printed in my mind, for some reason. Anyway, you know you're good, I know you're good, everybody knows it. But, there is just something about your posts that is high tier engaging. This flow you have between dialog, description, and narrative is uncanny—especially when you use NPC interaction. You also seem to balance yourself out very well in regards to the type of character you write for. The collection of tropes in your character could easily get out of hand in the wrong hands, but it really shines in yours. Your writing is also on point. I mean, it checks all the marks, all the tricks, all the flavor.

We are good! Unfortunately, right after having followed up on my last OOC check-in, I got smacked by a virus/bug of some sort. Did not test + for COVID, but I was decommissioned Sunday-Wednesday. I am catching up on all of my obligations, including this, thank you for the friendly nudge.

@Prisk - aww. Priskins you warm my heart. This is incredibly touching! You well know that I've struggled with my writing for quite some time, always worried about being too much or being not enough. I've long idolized the narratives and stories you design and have happily been apart of so many! I've created some of my best characters for your plots, so much that they are forever "canon'd" in some of my writing out of TSW!

I'm officially back from vacation, which was heavily needed, and I worked it out to have a nice little weekend at home before returning to work. So, I'm working on a post for Scylla. Given that we need to get things rollin' I can push some of the narrative in that direction with just enough filler and Scylla musings so it's not too drab.

Definitely gives off Big Mom energy lol. While I write my post I had a thought, as far as I know I am the only Aeon from IntDiv and as I was writing I figured that Aaron would have some info beyond what is commonly known to the group about the group (since he's a bit paranoid lol). My question to you fellow writers, what is something Aaron might dig up about your character? For the sake of story telling (and only if you want to of course) PM me something interesting he might know. It can be major plot related or not and anything in between. This is of course purely optional and was just a fun exercise that came to mind.

Some days I think about my old username too . Even to the point where I think about going back to good ole, reliable Altered Tundra (without the space because the Guild's coding around usernames is weird). But at the same time, I feel like I've become fully comfortable in my new identity.

But thank you for all the kind things you said! I go through my own days where I doubt that I hold a candle to some of the writers I write with. Or maybe my language isn't as good as some others, but it's nice to hear it every once in a while. :)

@Archangel89
This is yet another great idea! I'll PM you in a little bit with something. Also, you need a little bit of GM-knowledge about the immediate plot, so that you can converse about it in-character.
