Let’s motivate each other. Writing can be so isolating sometimes.
So, tell me about your world and ask questions about mine. In my reply, I’ll ask questions about yours’.
I may ask a ton of questions.
First, here’s my world.
Atlia: A city which is partially submerged underwater. A parallel world to our own. It’s like ancient Greece. It’s inspired by the legends of Atlantis. In Atlia there live these creatures called sirens, but they look more like mermaids and there are also males. One queen has ruled for a couple hundred centuries and birthed many children through the God of the Sea, Poseidon.
The sirens have their own magic, but from Poseidon, they were given a gem that prolongs their lives and heals wounds. Currently, the city is at war with another city called Karishkalia who are said to be evil storm-makers from the deep sea. The Karish, as they are called, are trying to take the gem and kill the Atlians in the process.
Now, tell me about yours and leave some questions for me
so i’m working on a couple stories. I’m posting up a werewolf/vampire story on WP (the one i asked you for advice about the group bullying)
anddd then i’m working on a murky concept, with “infected” ones who have small powers from a young age but are ostracized from society and physically damaged to be kept in check. That one is very obstinate and giving me trouble, so any questions are welcome there too hehehe.
Okay, so about Atlia!
What human time period is it most equivalent to? i.e roman times, middle ages, industrial era?
It’s anthropomorphic creatures right? Which ones are highest one the food chain? Which are the lowest?
Do sea creatures and land creatures get along or is ther a lot of fighting?
More like that it doesn’t really appear in full force until much later in the story.
The theme is that no matter how much you love someone, they’ll still have a mental illness. Believing that your love can cure them or make them better is naive at best.
you might be able to indicate traces of the theme in interactions earlier on. If she acts bouyant and confident to resolve something in him that she thinks lowers his quality of life or limits him, that could still touch on the theme i think?
I was motivated to save most my chapters still on the phone to gmail because I just got a new phone due to T-Mobile “not supporting 4G anymore”. Now I’m torn between finishing the dang werewolf crud and the first draft of the cinderella smut (honestly more fond of the world than the story). But that is life. Going to take me forever to get used to this new phone.
