    Is there anything that always/almost always causes you to stop reading a diary?

    cliche plot ideas.
    grammar.
    punctuation.
    mary/gary sues.
    there doesn't need to be a queen bee all the time,you know. and the queen bee can also be nice.
    family writing in the diary. [ unless it has something to do with the story,which i don't think it ever will.. ]
    author's notes in the middle of the entry. [ i used to do that,now i dont. ]

    and i am actually fine with people posting on the diary thread IF they don't spam.
    if they do,i make a fanclub.

    @piefan
    yes,that's what it means. i despise it.

    whoever is reading the Eyeball,how is it so far? ovo

    @Snowflakette

    I haven't read the Blueberry,i was a little too busy ^^; but the feedback i heard was great,and I hope that whatever problems you're going through right now,would solve themselves.
    Don't be so harsh on yourself,that's what ruins great things sometimes c;

Yup. In the duct-tape the main characters sister, the queen bee, a pirate and a leader of a sort of spy thingy write in the main characters dairy. Oh and her boyfriend

Oh. That's too bad :(

@snowflake

You know... If it makes you feel better, I got a little jealous of you at one point. Because I like your writing + you have tons of readers that comment a lot. When you leave your blueberry, you should leave knowing that your writing was awesome- and I mean that. ... I'd strongly encourage you not to quit, but if you feel it's right, you should definitely do what's better for you.

I really hope that everything works out for you. If you ever need to talk just PM me.

Ah, I see.

I personally have never minded that... in the Enigma/diary contest entry, I had Khairul's sister, Fatin, take his diary and write in it. Done right, it can help show other peoples' personalities and worldviews. Of course, part of that is because K seems to view the world through extremely theatrical sunglasses, which reflects in his writing, while the others are actually normal-ish.
I'm socially awkward and sometimes terse - don't mind me.

    Continuing that point, think about this: Have any of you actually been in a school where the 'Queen Bee' girl sorts everyone out? Plus one time it should be a guy :P

    @everyone
    I agree with every single one of your ideas about Piefan's question. (What makes you stop reading a diary.) Usually diaries that are like that last for only 3 days or only 5 entries. I think some people write them because they're "the thing" now, but it takes effort to have quality work!

    @snow
    I'm going to miss the blueberry! I understand how you feel about not wanting to write anymore; I feel like that too. (But hey, look on the bright side. Now you can turn your full attention to art! Your art is AMAZING!)

    Happy Summer!

    RANDOM FACT #3:
    Candy is good.

    I was a member of the Rebel Alliance, a timelord, a tribute in the Games, a Dauntless soldier, a runner in the Maze, and a security guard at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. I'm so good at sleeping that I can do it with my eyes closed. I visited Jurassic World survived the Time War. I am unstoppable.

    I WOULD LIKE MY WORK IN THE LIBRARY!
    Username: SamuraiSeapony
    Title:
    нєу! αяє уσυ яєα∂ιηg му ∂ιαяу؟ / Hey! Are you reading my diary?
    Link: http://www.chickensmoothie.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=2749414
    Is it part of a series?: Not really, but if i decide to continue it when i'm done, it'll be the first in it.
    If yes, what are the sequels (and the links to those too, please)?
    Short Pitch: (something to persuade people to read your story in 180 characters (CHARACTERS, not words, this includes letters, punctuation, and spaces) or less): Meet Clover and Shayla. Two normal wolves, and one abnormal school. Join Shayla as she tries to discover the mysteries of their new school, Perfection Pines, and Clover, as she reflects about her life in the nerd group.
    Illustration (optional. Could be a banner, a picture of your main character, anything): Image
    Code: Select all
