Are there any writers around this guild? 3nodding
I love to write! Right now many of my stories are short stories, though I also love novel writing. I write a short story each month for my Patreon and am currently working on a visual novel. I also regularly write poetry too!
Feel free to chat about your current writing projects!

I would love to write but I have 0 confidence and 0 clues. LOL so I live vicariously through others.
What's the Visual Novel that you're working on about?

Gwenpool I would love to write but I have 0 confidence and 0 clues. LOL so I live vicariously through others. What's the Visual Novel that you're working on about? I'd be very happy to share some tips if you would like to talk about your writing 3nodding What would you like to write about? My visual novel is based on a students and teachers attending a school for students who use magic. At the beginning of the game you choose a single character and will remain with that character through the playthrough, choosing decisions that will decide their skills, their relationships and how they deal with their personal situation and the complex world around them. 3nodding You can check out my WorldAnvil account if you'd like!

That's actually so cool emotion_kirakira Collab works too inspire me so much because it's a merging of 2 souls. More sacred than marriage. I love writing about society (and sociological concepts) through fantasy and D&D-like settings. Or any social science through fantasy in general, but mostly social and D&D

Or any social science through fantasy in general, but mostly social and D&D I'm really tired right now so sorry if I don't make much senseI adore talking about society and sociology, and fantasy is such a great way to do that! It's wonderful to share this interest with someone else on Gaia redface I don't get to play D&D much but I think it's great that you have that option to explore society through D&D too. If you can give me more information about what you'd like to write, I'd be happy to give you some advice or tips. Generally, I meet a lot of people who wish to write a novel. There are a lot of ideas, but there isn't the knowledge on how to combine these ideas into a story. The first tip would be to start writing flash fiction, which is a piece of complete writing that can be anything from 3 to 500 words. Practicing telling a complete story in a limited number of words helps you to learn how to solidify your ideas, improve decision making and improve overall writing skills. Look for free writing competitions and have a go at them too - it can help challenge you to take on topics and establish your own creative process. If anyone wants, I could run writing challenges in the guild 3nodding

If anyone wants, I could run writing challenges in the guild 3nodding I am lucky - I went to study Social Sciences a little and honestly, Sociology opened by mind my much - I feel without it I'd be a different person and I don't wish to ever look back (despite Marxism ruining my life lol) but I really want to explore this so much further, but none of my friends IRL like talking about things like that, they don't see the point because it's "theory" THEORY CAN BE PRACTICAL if you discuss implications and fabricated worlds of what COULD be! But literally no one to explore these ideas with. I think thats why I love collaborative work so much because I can't imagine people working on somethign creative and not having some form of heavy conversations with topics like these in mind. I am happy to have D&D in my life, even if it's just for imagination purposes as it's easier to explore in a fabricated world than think of the real one and how fundamentally flawed it is. I joined a Writing group - as part of a Health Program they run where I stay - and honestly they have no idea what they are doing which is a shame because I see sooo much potential. I think something like a Writing Group with challenged and whatnot could be amazing. Art Groups do it with prompts. Why not writers? All creatives should get a chance to explore with like-minded folk.

Maybe we can make a debate thread lol I also agree that theories can be practical, and there can be a difference between 'okay that's a good idea' and 'okay, but how do we actually implement this?' D&D is great... And so are writing groups. I'll talk to our guild leader about maybe setting up some challenges or something. mrgreen

How long? What genre? dramallama Currently, it's an animated feature length film. Which are roughly 90 pages.
We're working with my friends idea of children teaching parents. Spinning it into sci-fi comedy where our main family moves into a high-tech suburb, cut off from the rest of world. After two meetings we have a base outline the contains robots, hypnosis/brainwashing, a secret kids hideout and an "evil corporation" that uses the lure of safety and pleasantries to take control.

I've been thinking about trying to write something, I've always been told I'm pretty good at it so I've been thinking maybe I should have a go. Not really sure what to write though I like to think I'm pretty good at making worlds.
