Do you write in the style of any particular author? If so, who?My style tends to shift depending on what I've been reading lately, so yes, kind of. I don't usually do it intentionally, though if I want to write something in a certain style I can use it to my advantage by reading something in that style first.
Have you ever written something in a completely different style than normal? All dialogue, or none, or just imagery, or along those lines.I've done a couple things like that, but I don't do it often. It can be pretty fun though!

- I won't be posting it on here though o.o it's a bit too dark for that...
But I think I have started over five times already, I just can't seem to get the idea I have in my head out on paper or in this case, on the screen... :c
Does anybody have any tips on how I can get started and stay motivated? I really want him to have a story, and it should be a good one as well - because, after all of the things I have put him through, he deserves at least that x'D
The best way to get writing done is simply to sit down and
write. Everyone wants to skip that step, but it is, frustratingly, a requirement. Don't worry about quality, just get the words down. You can always edit later. I've heard the first draft described as telling the story to yourself, and that's generally a better mindset than trying to put together a finished product on the first try.
If you're really having trouble with the "just sitting down and writing" part, I've found it useful to set a daily word goal. Mine is pretty low - I usually go for 350 words per day - but getting a words down every day, even if it's just a few, eventually adds up to a lot!

i’m currently working on an au rewrite of the warrior cats series, so i’m curious if y’all have any fandom works?
Fanfic usually isn't my thing - I hate writing other people's characters - but lately I've been writing a lot of stuff set in the world of a webcomic I'm a fan of.
