The temptation to work on other stories is strong as HELL right now
But my Discord rp partner has upset me so much

What happened?
Also, why donāt you RP on the forums?
Itās a long story
I wanna but I procrastinate a LOT
Oh. (worried)
How so? So you canāt RP?
Yeahā¦
I can RP, I just tend to procrastinate a lot. I have to rejoin Fairytaled, and sign up for That Was My Orange Juice, Kevin! along with Blue Royalty
I would RP but I wouldnāt be able to keep up with it which is why Iām not doing it.
Iām still going back and forth on my story idea but itās so close to spring break so Iām excited to have that time!
Help?
Oh, so probably a smaller and slower RP would be best for you?
How often would you be about to post if you were in one?
nods Letās go to our pm please
Mayhaps. Iād have to be able to post a few times a week max. But most of the rps here are really chill!
That varies cuz I wouldnāt really be able to focus on it. Like, I wouldnāt be able to devote attention to it with all the other things running around in my head and Iām afraid i would neglect it. If I had strong passion, maybe like 2-3 times a week.
In addition to that, thereās also a little passion project Iāve got, where Iām in a different predicament. I know everything plot wise and character wise down to the details. (Itās making a novelization of an rp )
But the structure of how to write it is difficult to figure out, especially combined with the uncertainty of if I could actually pull it off and do it the justice I feel it deserves.
I possibly could do that.
I just donāt know which of my ideas should be the focus most/first
Especially since one of the ones I have in mind is a much different genre from the others too, one where I have much less expertise in.
I appreciate it guys
Thatās true. So you donāt need suggestions or anything then, for RPs/SGs to have a go at?
A week? Thatās totally fine. Most, if not all, RPs here are pretty chill with that sort of time frame.
Yeah, it could. Plus, being public would mean you could get ideas from loads of users, rather than just a select few. So youād be asking ya target audience, sorta.
Ooooh⦠so what are the ideas?
Yayyyy
Yup.
Yes, itād get me a variety of opinions and ideas which would be a very helpful thing
I have way more too, but these are the ones that are more developed or more recent
This is one where I posted what Iāve written so far in my thread in the patrons section
Itās an adventure story where the main character is an adventurer at the beginning of her career, having been the youngest child of a famous pair of adventurers. This being her first big adventure that sheās brought a group with her for, but she was warned not to, and over the course of the story her reckless, arrogant behavior gets everyone into more danger.
The focus of this story being on how the following events forge her into the great adventurer and role model sheāll one day be known as.
Iāve posted a small scene I was looking at for this one in my patron section thread too.
This one is actually based on the character I made for the Adventure Story SG, Kathryn.
Iām still not sure where this one should go, but Iāve been working on worldbuilding.
Itās about Ryn, a girl thatās lived her whole life in hiding, an outcast. Her mother, a human queen, killed when she was just a newborn. Ryn, believed to have died alongside the king and queen, not only lived, but thrived under the watchful eye and training of her father, an elf shunned by his own kind, formerly the queenās personal guard and the only other survivor in the massacre at the palace.
This takes place in a world where a kingdom is divided and falling apart, too many people are fighting for the kingdomās throne since the previous king died with no heir and no clear line of succession. That is, until the idea came to create a new royal line, beginning with someone the entire kingdom could say had earned the throne. To earn the throne, a number of individuals from across the land were selected to compete against each other. Though these individuals are not simply random, theyāre leaders, warriors, public figures. However, one person is the furthest from what anyone, especially himself, wouldāve expected. A young man, who had only ever known to stay in the background, but was chosen for having recently gone into the spotlight for how he put his life on the line to rescue a stranger.
This one is definitely stepping out of my comfort zone
The characters are two girls, just meeting for the first time after one of them transferred to the college the other was attending. Despite being opposites in so many ways, theyāre drawn together. One is quiet and introverted, while the other wants to pull her out of her shell. One likes books and writing, while the other is all about movies and music. One has a close knit family, while the other hasnāt been accepted home in a long time.
The story would take place over the course of about a year starting with the time they met.
Yeah, I vaguely remember you mentioning something like this before and it was before Encanto was a thing. HAHA. Anyway, if you wanna go with cursed plot but also wanna leave home with the LI, why not make her family be the cursed ones? Their magic was cursed and it is up to the MC to venture out to break the curse.
Thatās a really good idea actually! And perhaps the family doesnāt know theyāre cursed so since the MC is different they think sheās the cursed one.
Yeah, yeah, that could work.
I hate promoting. Iām not good at social media stuff and promoting my stories is just so time consuming sometimes. Those promotion threads here are fine, I like them, but Iām also trying to promote my stories on Instagram to actually find new readers and itās just so difficult. I also plan on starting to promote on Tiktok but I never thought it would be so tiring to make a video. I just want to write and find people who enjoy my stories but they canāt find me if I donāt promote my work.
Iām gonna be brutally honest, if you want people to notice your work and read it, you need to put in the work. Even famous authors need to promote their work. Stephen King didnāt become Stephen King overnight. As a small author, promoting is exhausting, yes, but it pays off when people read my story, come to my dms, and start talking and asking me questions about Deadly Nightshade because they love it!
Okay so, Iām writing a story in which the MC and LI have to babysit the MCās little cousins. Throughout the story, the reader can gain babysitting points (which determine how well the MC is taking care of the kids) and points with the LI (which determines the MCās relationship with the LI). I already know that if the reader doesnāt have enough LI points at the end of the story, the MC wonāt end up with him (well, thatās what Iāve currently planned). Iām not sure what should happen if the reader doesnāt have enough babysitting points, though. Right now I only know that having enough babysitting points will unlock bonus scenes. But Iām not sure if it should affect the ending? Or how it should affect the ending? Iām so confused.
