    Araliin

    Unfortunately, the only things I have to contribute to my portfolio at the moment are two pieces of art and background information featuring my favorite fantasy brainchild, Araliin Talis. I've written many things on this character that will probably never see the light of day because they're...

    A bit depressed right now. . .

    Well, you can rest assured that everyone cares about you here, Aegrus. I'm in high school and I suffer from depression and anxiety attacks. Drawing and writing are a type of coping mechanism for me, too. I dunno, for some reason, writing and depression just go hand in hand. Anyway, you were put...

    Inspiration issues.

    I know exactly what you mean. As a matter of fact, that's a big problem with me, too. I hate hate hate it. That's why I'm probably never going to sit down long enough to get anything published.

    Inspiration issues.

    Thank you all. Maybe everyone's right, maybe I do need to take a rest from the one idea I've been trying to nail into my poor hard skull. Oh, and Anders, I did start with my characters first. Though... that was probably a bad idea. What good are the characters I'm so close to if I don't even...

    Inspiration issues.

    You know, that actually sounds like a fun idea. Seventh Sanctum is quite the lifesaver, isn't it? I might try that sometime, too.

    Inspiration issues.

    I haven't been on here in forever. Mostly because I had abandoned the story I was working on in the premature stage; I barely had the basis of how my characters looked and behaved and had what was a train-wreck of a first chapter. Then I left for about a half a year, and now I'm back, wishing to...

    Introducing Two Main Characters Simultaneously?

    Yeah, these two are going to be together quite alot... quite alot. Like, romantic interest eventually together. I just feared having one of them becoming the hero, and the other the sidekick. I planned on having most of it in 3rd person, anyhow, so it'd be easier to juggle them both.

    Skyrim Roleplay?

    Heck, I know I'd do it. I'm in love with my high elf, Sylvani, even though everything kills him. (I am but a mere level 6, you see. *facepalm*)

    Introducing Two Main Characters Simultaneously?

    Thank you guys so much! And yes, Legendary Sidekick (which, le gasp! Benjamin told me about you!) I was going to switch POV's until it was appropriate that they could both speak to each other, at that point I'd probably start paying attention to both. Thank you so much for all of your...

    Hi, Friends!

    Oh my Lord, there IS a Legendary Sidekick! I thought you were kidding. That's freaking amazing.

    Introducing Two Main Characters Simultaneously?

    I have two main characters that share the same spotlight. I was thinking about introducing them both in the first three or so chapters, giving them equal "airtime", to demonstrate their mutual partnership and importance throughout the rest of the story. It's just the way I want to do it that I'm...

    Best music for writing fantasy?

    I definitely suggest Immediate Music and Future World Music. Most music can be distracting while writing, but I find this is only so when the songs do not have a sort of mystical aura. These two mix instrumentals and choir to make songs that range from truly epic to airy and fantastic. Also, try...

    How deep are your worlds?

    As for world building... I'm kind of feeling overwhelmed as well. I'm 16, and just starting out too. Naming countries and towns and mountains... that's simple. I have different names for the different days of the week, keeping rather cheesily close to our English ones (Mirdal, Thordal, Wirendal...

    Bring your own skooma!*

    I am in the same boat as you! Mentally, at least. I just joined 3 minutes or so ago. I love all of my characters sincerely, but I fear my abilities are nothing short of mediocre, and I have a major problem with concentrating so hard on something with such fervor, only to forget about it...
