OrcaWolf Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 If I wasn’t in such a big writer’s block I’d do one of these. I dunno maybe I’ll try my hand at this one anyway if I have time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I just added a bit more dialogue to my entry, towards the end. It's during Cat Noir's confession. Just a couple lines, really. I felt this part kinda needed it after looking at it several times. I also corrected a typo. But I won't be changing anymore of the piece.

Typically I'll listen to music(anime/video game soundtracks) that sort of fits the scene I'm currently writing. I'll also listen to music that fits the same ideas I'm trying to convey. In fact a lot of the pieces I write are inspired by music I listen to which I try reference in the work itself. Like I'll listen to things like Sadness and Sorrow: or Gentle Hands Memories within the Mirror is also a pretty good song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 I've tried to listen to music while I work on things, but I end up paying too much attention to the music and not enough attention to the work. lol I wish I could work efficiently AND listen at the same time. 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a side note, if I'm playing a game that has the option to turn the music off I will nine time out of ten turn the music off then since I literally can't stay fully focused lol XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but the way some people go on about how religion should have nothing to do with holidays drives me nuts so I figured I'd warn you all in case any of you were of like persuasion. Anyways, here we go. On This Holy Day Wordcount like 15XX or something Pre-Read Notes(Optional, hopefully not necessary to understand/enjoy): Spoiler Just a little explanation that mostly only benefits Chloey because she's somewhat familiar with the background. At the end of my own writing story, Arilon, the main character, engages in battle with Vick Tarine, basically the climactic battle the whole thing leads up to. Arilon comes close to defeat and is saved at the last moment by...well, it varies, in an FE-Support-Based system where, if Arilon married over the course of the story(yeah, it's one of those kinds), his wife appears to help him. There are only two endings that deviate from this, the 'canon' ending, which doesn't matter here, and the 'Lore' ending, where the Empress Arilon has sworn himself as retainer to appears despite the two not sharing any romantic attachments. He then returns to her world(Lore) and resumes his position, striking up something of a relationship with one of the residents of Mystcroft, the equivalent of Halloween Town, which ultimately results in this piece, hence the 'Epilogue' in the title on the page. Link: Spoiler https://docs.google.com/document/d/187pjBX90yy7uiW99tnCuGChhZxK0fBe7Ibs43HBW8_8/edit?usp=sharing Notes: Spoiler Welp, another piece that felt rushed. This is why you should write not at 2AM for two days on the week of. I don't think I did a particularly excellent job here, there wasn't much buildup, or really any wind-down, it just sort of oh hey there's people and it's Christmas but it's not called Christmas but he's calling it Christmas and woah religious exposition dump and hey it's over? ...If that makes sense.

Ottservia Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Well I probably won't get mine done by tommorrow. Writer's block hurts in me ways that I just can't explain. Oh well I'll still read and review the entries though. I dunno what it is but I just have a hard time writing fluff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heh, maybe ask @Dragoncat about that? She never seems to have trouble with fluff. XD So I guess we're only going to have three entries for this round? That's a real bummer given that it's a CHRISTMAS prompt. Man, that should be one of the most fun prompts ever. 😞 Well, unless you don't celebrate it, I suppose.

Ana, maybe it's a case of people not having the creative energy to come up with something for the prompt and not that they don't celebrate Christmas necessarily. Please cut everyone some slack, just because you came up with something doesn't always mean everyone else can, life is vastly unpredictable and shit happens. And writer's block is the biggest pain in the arse to deal with at times. Sometimes a break is necessary to get creative again. It's got nothing to do with the prompt, I liked it, and I'm sure a lot of other people did too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
