[b][color=#400000]When was the last time you cried while writing your story? What was so emotional?[/color][/b]

No matter how unemotional you are, I feel that your writing has to evoke deep feelings within yourself, in order to bring readers to tears. :/ It especially shows that you are connected with your characters. If something's own creator isn't affected, then how can those who view it be?

does Dr. Dummkopf count?

Eyyyy! Dummkopf. Haven't seen him for a while.

Right. I should do some writing and stop hanging out here........ heh.

@Aliria I know right XD
Ok answering a few questions
Have you ever listened to a song and it inspired your book?
Not yet but I hope I do

What's the most emotional scene you've written that wasn't a death scene? Did you cry while writing it?
Saldly no, I still have yet to explore that (I'm not very good at visulation and Character development).

Have you ever tried to draw your characters or your settings? How about a map?
I have written a character based off of a drawing of someone.

Today's the last day to write for the picture below! If you click it it'll take you to the competition page, which will tell you what's going on XD
If you'd like to write for it pm me and I'll put off the judging until your piece is done

[Nomonym]

Pfft I would, but I think I would need more time to write. I take 9 years to post anything. xD

[Silver Pandorica]

When was the last time you laughed while writing your story? What was so funny?
Mm...I think it was a day or so ago when Indigo jumped down from the trees and was acting like Alexa and he were friends. Oh I love him. One of my favorite characters in my books ^^

Have you ever tried to draw your characters or your settings? How about a map?
Yes!! Except I fail at humans, so it's really frustrating to not be able to put down what I see in my mind's eye onto paper. As for maps, those are super helpful. I like to draw them out so I can describe it in detail better.

What's the most emotional scene you've written that wasn't a death scene? Did you cry while writing it?
Um...when Jason finally realized Torren was Morgan, and he actually was his brother. On the docks. The dock scene. XD Nope, didn't cry.

Have you ever made a super hilarious person, that almost every time they said something, you'd end up laughing?
No, not yet. I'm planning on making a funny character though ^^ I tend to be better at sulking, dark characters.

Have you ever tried to voice act your characters?
Yes...

Oh, that's okay! I can wait for you, if you want?
I'm usually late judging, anyway XD

[Nomonym]

Thats okay. I have to catch up with replies here before I can even think of anything else. I will just do your next challenge and crush it. Finish it like a cheesecake, I will. It will be so done, people will mistake it for burnt toast. But it will smell better hopefully.

Okay, sounds good! I can't wait! to eat it >XD

EDIT: My latest piece of Out of This World:
It doesn't actually reveal much, but I hope someone enjoys it

xxxxxHornri balanced on one foot, processing the boy’s statement slowly.
xxxxx“That’s true,” he conceded finally, glaring at Seventh’s smirk. “But I’m coming [with you] anyway—and no amount of arguing is ever going to change my mind!” Hornri clapped his beak, utterly determined. “If you lock me inside I’ll open the window and follow you. If you tie me to a tree I’ll peck free and follow you. If you catch me trailing you and gag me I won’t care because I’ll still follow you! If—if—” he paused, not sure what else to use as an example.
xxxxx“If I throw you in a pot? What then?” Seventh asked, his arms crossed and an eyebrow raised. A smile twisted his face, defying his attempts to deny it.
xxxxxHornri swallowed nervously, stumped and a little worried.
xxxxx“You’ll rise from the ashes of your former self and live again, will you?”
xxxxxHornri pounced on the Human’s statement, relief colouring his tone. “Yes! Exactly. And—”
xxxxx“Wait on,” Seventh said, holding a hand up to interrupt the bird as he realised they were only wasting time. “First of all, why would I ever do anything like that to you?” He held his finger down to demonstrate his point, then quickly continued before either of his friends could continue. “Second of all, putting you in a pot suggests I boil you, in which case your remains will be a nice stew, not ashes, so you’re not even making any sense.”
