It's about a girl that moves to the mountains of California because her dad is an ornithologist whose life goal is to study the Californian condor in the wild. Her new neighbors seem odd and own a lot of exotic animals, like a leopard, a raccoon dog, and a flamingo. She quickly discovers that the neighbors are actually wizards, and that their pets are mythical creatures. They teach her about magic and their pets, then she chooses a mythical creature of her own and joins them as a wizard.
ooh, that does sound fun!

I prefer exact or nearly exact rhymes, and I think I know what you mean about the rhythm being a bit off sometimes. They're a bit of a work in progress, so honest opinions are appreciated. It was a bit difficult to make them the same length, but I'm glad that I managed it. I love the conflicting final stanzas, so I'm probably not touching those. I may work on some of the other bits, though.
They're really good! I always struggle with poems, and I'm almost always left feeling like my rhymes are unsatisfyingly weak - but you pulled it off really well!

I've finally started on a draft for one of my oldest stories and there are so many plot holes but it feels nice to have a project to work on
I've missed you toooo, it's actually really nice to be back <3

Le gasp. Is that the one with Townly and Wes? Either way, exciting!



It kinda is. They've sadly been relegated to side characters but they are still in it!

Shyshie and Martin Trevioiant. Originally it was just supposed to be Martin, but Shyshie slowly stope more and more of the spotlight until I have to say they're both mains now

Ahhh, of course! Shyshie as a main character makes total sense in my head, I've definitely seen her around a lot XD What part does Martin play, again? I haven't seen him around for awhile, and my memory is not what it used to be 🤔 xD Was he her cousin?

Yeah I can't deny I've a teensy bit been playing favorites when it comes to writing characters.
Martin gets a teleporting sword and becomes captain of a teleporting ship. He's Shyshie's friend and gets into plot relevant trouble

Hi everyone! I’m new to this thread and just discovered it. I’m somewhat confused on its purpose but glad to be here nonetheless.
I’m currently working on a second draft of the first few chapters of a story I’m working on ^.^
It’s been a while since I’ve worked on it though...

Honestly I think our purpose is to just think about writing lol. World build, then consider actually writing. Like me lol. Quarantine should have been the perfect time to write but instead I find myself doodling and coming up with teeny-tiny events that may or may not happen in my world. Why must I do this heck

Quarantine has not been very productive for many people 😂 although I hoped it would have been lol RIP

Quarantine was a completely new situation that has been stressful in many ways, so don't be too hard on yourself for not writing.
If it's really bothering you, you can look up those "100 writing prompts" things and try some out, or just consider how you would attack one.
