I'm so glad i'm not the only one ! I feel like most of my characters either represent different little parts of my personality or they're the parts of me that i wish i was or that i suppress a bit. I guess its just a way for me to express my real personality lol

I used to have a group of characters that were literally all me except each one exaggerates something about me.

It’s totally cool, dude. I was just being Grumpy at Mir for fun.

I was going through my tabs and closing them and stuff and i realized…a lot of my searches make me seem like an arsonist. I've looked up different ways and places to start fires, the different degrees of arson, and juvenile punishment for the different degrees of arson. hopefully no buildings in my city burn down… : /

If I were anything up that alley, I'd be a straight-up(even though I'm not straight) pyromaniac

A lot of my searches are about psychopaths. WhAt I NeEd A VilLaIn!

Me too ! It gets hard :/
Also, i've hit a slight writer's block. i can't get more than a couple lines in before i start giving up. i just want to get to the climax of the story, not the boring beginning :(
group
UGHHH I'm so stuck
I though i patched up a small plot hole but by doing so i created another one. and its so small that i kind of just want to ignore it because who's ACTUALLY gonna notice. but still. its frustrating >:(

I've already written the climax, but all the characters scattered to distract the villain and now I have to write about them regrouping in order to get to the resolution, and I'm super mad at myself for making this part so hard. I could have let them stick together but nooooo.
Tell me about it, Broc. Fr. Maybe I can lend assistance.
Looking over a story that I haven't worked on in a long time and finding that I got a block at an interrogation sequence. I've watched a lot of crime investigation shows, done the research, etcetera, yet I'm still stuck. I know exactly what I want to happen. The problem is getting it to happen.

ajskjansjbd Modern AUs are hard to write
group
They really are ! What kind of AU are you trying to write (if you're willing to share)? Maybe i can help !

I'm writing Chapter 4(?) of a One Piece Road Trip AU and it's harder than I expected when you're putting pirates in modern-day scenarios
group
Oh well i have never watched/read One Piece but maybe i could help brainstorm some ideas for the pirates if you want. what part of it did you need help with?
At what age do you think is appropriate for a girl and a guy to start crushing on each other? The age gap is relatively small (two years), but their ages that I'm wondering about. I'm not sure how else to phrase it ^^; It's basically the typical "guy's best friend + guy's younger sister" subplot. The guy's group is highschool age and I wanna know how old the sister can be without making it weird
Really depends on the type of relationship and how you want to frame it on a good relationship to bad relationship scale.
I'd have to say no younger than eleven for when the crushing phase starts. This leaves you quite a bit of room on the age-scale.
Eleven is young though.
It is…. Perhaps 12 or 13, when puberty usually starts. All those hormones to deal with!
Maybe fourteen? I said they're highschool age, but it's in a medieval setting. Also, the girl's a princess and the guy (the best friend) is supposed to be looking out for her (not a bodyguard, something different). It won't be a full blown relationship, just complicated feelings, and the girl is going to start crushing long before the guy
I don't mind doing a time skip if need be, but there's gonna be a larger plot going on and I want it to be in the same timeframe
Well fourteen doesn't sound bad as long as you sell it as kids with emotion as opposed to an adult relationship.
Definitely not that sort of relationship
I wish I had some book examples to show what I mean. I mostly use Percy Jackson/Harry Potter as examples when it comes to how crushes are handled in fiction, as those two characters do a good job with portraying how feelings develop with the passage of time imo. They were both crushing on people by the time they were fourteen even if it wasn't serious (Harry) and neither party really acted on it until later (Percy)
group
i would say 15 and 17. Any younger and they would be in kind of different age groups and any older would be weird.
Time skip it is

I have to many antagonists because I couldn't decide which one to use and none of them have realistic motivations or backstories because I forgot about them while working on the main characters even though my story needs the villain as a main character as well. So now I'm stressing because the plot called and wants its villain.

The antagonist struggle is a real one :/ maybe i could help you out with it !

I love making antagonists, so if you want any help I'd happily do that. We'll have to talk about your story too, which can help.
