It's all good. I just don't want this thread to be filled with them, and then filled with a bunch of welcomes- ya know?

I hate essays. I like creative writing (I mean, essays can be creative but not when you have a set outline) and stories sooo much better. How about you?

[Sleipnir]

Oh GOSH yes.

I HATE essays. Especially the generic ones, ie "Role model" essays...

*GASPS*
that's exactly what we're doing.
dun dun dun.
"Should celebrities be considered role models?" - GUESS WHAT? I don't care!
-.- seriously I think like 10 worksheets and 3 essays on the same topic is quite enough.

Yes, you can all post. I just don't want posts of people making forms to join, or other unrelevant things

[iWonder]

I don't mind essays or reports soo long as there aren't too many rules. When I write I need freedom to do so.

Even in role-plays where there are so many rules and the owner is rude about it I don't feel like I can write at all.

i really wanna post a story here [on CS] but

i don't want anyone taking it for their own ;-;

Might I suggest taking a look at wattpad.com? Your works are protected by copyright. And I belive people can't copy and paste your stories once you post them.

... i already have a wattpad.

but like

post on here so another crowd could see it

[Woogwoo Wren]

I should look into watpad, It sounds interesting.

[iWonder]

Ah. Then it isn't worth the risk. I don't understand why people would take an idea that wasn't theirs.

But I have linked people to my stories and they were able to read it without an account.

And Wattpad has an app @spanner339. So you can have your stories and library wherever you go (and for the most part it works without Internet.)

how do you write the death of a really good character?

It depends on the character. I mean, if it's a supporting character, then I'll put more depth in it. But if it's just a character that I created for the sole purpose of being killed and kill them off early, I tend to make it rather simple. Though still descriptive enough that the reader will feel the same as the lead. Like, for example, in my novel the main character kills an enemy when she made a vow not to. So then, once she knows what she did, she mourns over it and feels guilt for just protecting her love.

And I usually only kill supporting characters if I feel it'll, not only make our lead grow, but move the plot onward to an end.

How do you make it dramatic?

I try to describe what the lead is feeling as much as I can so the reader can feel the same. I also make sure the supporting character is developed enough that the reader is well attached to them. I think that killing a character to move a plot forward without giving them enough development is pointless. I know the above scene I described could follow into the same category, but it's different. I'm too lazy to explain though.

Quick you have ten minutes to write the death scene of your favorite character Tris!

Meh, I'll do it later. Right now, I've got another story to work on.

Edit: I've just recently joined Wattpad. It's pretty nice, and I would recommend it to others.
