Alright, I guess.
*jumps in the water* (sorry, French expression for saying giving it a go)
This is blacksmiths daughter, my favorite story I wrote I think. It not done, of course.
*bites nails*
what do you guys think?
(I hope the link works.)

How difficult do you find it to kill off your characters?
It really depends? Like I loove messing with characters' emotions. It's fascinating! But at the same time, I haven't actually killed very many. Yet. Lol.

I have found my people. Jeezus hi, everyone. I'll post more / get more involved later. Whoo..

'Eyyy, welcome along! Watch out for carrots; they're evil o.o

Hello everyone!
I'm new... I've pm'd the owner, and I believe I can post before they accepted me?

Kia ora, welcome along! Great to see ya here Please don't touch carrots; you might die :'-/

Thanks!
I guess I could... But then all of you guys seem like really good writers and I'm not professional, at all.
I don't think my stories are up to you guys...

*intense arm-waving* Guys!! Did you hear?! we'RE PROFESSIONALS!!! *hyper celebratory dancing*
Ahaha casually laughs at herself XD Nah, we're not really; we're lazy writers <3 XD c;
(And I, for one, am interested in seeing your work c: )

oh wait you've already posted it *scurries off*

[sparrow;]

*cough cough* Yes, uh, professional. Very... very professional. I am a... professionalism. Yes. Very much so.

I can't read your story because I don't have Wattpad, sorry! I should probably get it, though, as everyone seems to be posting stories there...

@ranger
Wait, where did you learn to say Kia Ora??
(I'm just back from New Zealand and that suspiciously looks like Maori...)

Sorry, I know I'm off topic.
But that's where I learned to speak English, and where I started loving to write!

[sparrow;]

Ranger is from New Zealand. A lot of people on CS are, myself included! Kia Ora means "hello" in Maori c:

Also, this has probably been asked a lot, but:

@Arya22 Ooh, that's pretty good so far, I can't wait to read more! My only suggestion is to divide up the paragraphs more, as right now it's just a big block of text, which can get hard to follow. You should start a new paragraph whenever a new thought starts, or when someone says a line of dialogue.

Have you finished a book?
Nope. Not even close. My longest story got to around 13 pages before I got distracted and moved onto something else.

[Arya22]

Have you finished a book?
To read? More than 300 in three years!
To write? Nope, I am not able to...
Short stories, yes. Not books.

(*big grin* yay!
I learned to speak a little Maori in school in the three years I was there.)

@kalopsian
Thanks!
I see, I sometimes just get carried away by my writing and forget other people have to be able to read it too. XD

Yup, that's Maori! Hehe, like Sparrow said: I is a Kiwi!

Have you finished a book?
Yes! The Bandits of Infinity Forest i am not looking at that draft. ever. i don't want to see the awfulness i know will be there XD and a collab with Wren so. bad. hhh.

[DeMaizu]

*reads thing about professionals* BAHAHAHAHA- *ahem* Yes, we're all very professional people here, what with the lack of offices and finished drafts (published/finished people excluded) and whatnot. *snorts*

Have you finished a book?
HA! No. Never.

[b]Speaking of professionalism, what, in your opinion, constitutes someone being a "professional writer"?[/b]

[kolechia]

@Arya22 Your writing skills are actually really good! You have plenty of potential. I love the story you linked.
I'm not usually a fan of reading (shocker I know) but I really enjoyed reading it!

I'm totally a professional writer, Haha! Aw thanks but I can dream-

Have you finished a book?

pfff no. Closet I got was Chapter 13 (each chapter was like a page) and that was on a really bad self insert
fanfiction I wrote on A5 paper (it was like 20 pages long-)
