❛ the lazy writers ❜

Hello everyone!
Could I get some feedback on this? viewtopic.php?f=57&t=3255431

Hi! And sure, I'll check it out as soon as I've posted this cx
EDIT: Woah, that looks awesome! *bookmarks to follow*

I desperately need help, peeps. I have four characters who all need to be on the same flight. Mack is in Washington (state), Dessie in Detroit, Michigan, and Spencer and Toby are in Manhattan. They all need to be on a flight that passes over (or at least gets semi close to) the Bermuda triangle. Please help.

Heh
I've been for one flight
and I have almost no idea where anything is in America XD
Sorry; looks like the others have you covered anyway^^ XD

Thanks for the answers guys!

@Ranger- Forgot to say in my last post, but I really like that poem! It's got a nice flow to it.

Oh yeah, not all fairies have to be small, right? I guess I'm going for something a bit different then the typical fairy...oh! I just thought of something. Feel free to ignore this random blurb lol.

'Ey, thanks! Were there any grammar inconsistencies? It's here if anyone else is interested
...I think Tinkerbell has pointed ears in the movies? I don't know how I know this...

do you guys tend to have your characters' personalities mapped out before you start writing something, or do you let them come to you as it goes?
i tend to do the latter, but i've encountered a couple issues with not being sure which direction to take something, or the plot changing before my eyes.

Ugh, I'm all over the place with this. I go back and forth between planning and just winging it. Normally, I write out a few key traits, and then once I start writing, I work on defining things more.

Guys. I have a little over 22k words to make up cuz I slacked off for like 17 days. I might skip nano this year and do it next year.
Twenty. Two. Thousand. Words. *cries*

Okay, I have a problem. It's simple really, but I was just wondering if fairies can have pointed ears, like elves? I don't recall ever seeing that in a book or movie, but if no fairy has ever had pointed ears, is it okay to break that barrier, or should I stick to their lore? oh, the questions writers come up with

Disney fairies have pointed ears... If you want visual references.

Oh yeah! Heh...looked up Tinkerbell just to see...

@Ranger- I didn't notice any =)

I'm probably not the best person to answer this, but I tend to do a mix of both. But I suck at character personalities in general, so...huh. I've heard it helps to throw a bit of yourself into the character to keep you engaged, but I have yet to experiment with that.

i ask because one of the main characters in a short story i started writing is suddenly having some pretty... aggressive tendencies, and i don't know if i'm entirely set on them hahah

XD Same here. I've found one of my characters to be more serious and less charismatic and charming then I expected...might change it, might not. Guess I'll just have to see =P

i'm not necessarily complaining about it, but i am finding roadblocks in continuing the story just because i'm not sure how i want him to react to things.

I get it X3 Hope you can get past those!

[DeMaizu]

GUYS I'm so excited I wrote some more!
. . . . Just not in Griffin. Still, though, I may have gotten out of my creative funk for now! I can post part of it on here if anyone wants to read it, it's a Five nights at Freddy's fan fiction.

Who would provide criticism for my intro chapter and a partial first chapter for a book I'm trying to write? I'm really looking for some help on trying to spice things up as I feel like it's too repetitive ;~;
