Fanfiction and fan writing

Community General Discussion

Well, since I intended this to me more of a metadiscussion than actually going into details, I hoped to reach more people in General. :smiley:

Itā€™s not lively as much as it used to be. (Deffo not as active as the US forums.)

What did you think of my little snip of my story? Be as brutal as you want :smiley:

I was a little irritated by your comma placement, but thatā€™s probably just because I donā€™t really have a clue about how its done correctly in english. :wink:
Otherwise it would definitely make me read on if it was the ā€œteaserā€ passage of a fanfiction on one of the forums Iā€™ve visited. :smiley:

Yeah I really need to finish it. I nearly am done writing the recapture of Stormwind. A lot of forumers did die but heroically!!!

A few will be in the climactic battleā€¦

I really liked it, and would love to read more. But only if you are comfortable sharing of course. :heart:

Right you are. I am not the best in the world at writing, but I like to rehearse to get better. :cat:

Just an opinion here but for me Lindomien you would play the part of a healer, like a medic on the battleground so to speak.

I know it is hard to say you know somebody on the forums, but based on your posts so far, I think you are quite sweet natured, so I could not see you sword raised charging in to battle with the intent to harm/kill :slight_smile:

I am sure you will come back now and tell me you would love to be ā€˜the warriorā€™ :wink:

That is the sweetest thing. Thank you! And you have no idea how spot on you are about me liking to play healers and menders.

Back in the early 1990s we played D&D, and I always played priests and druids and bardsā€¦I was little back then. And I recall fondly a bard I used to play, and she believed in the good of all creatures.

She met an Incubus that was Chaotic Evil, and he would torment the player group, including my character he was basically a recurring villain. But my character believed so strongly that there was something good in him, that in the end the Incubus himself began believing it.

In hindsight, I sometimes think that character is likely the one that is most like me. I believe in the good of everyone. Even when they donā€™t want me to believe.

You are so kind Emje. A gold star to you. :star2:

@Lindomien I need some backstory of your toon to blend you in. Dont need to go into specifics I just need a general flavour.

And if by ā€œadultā€ content you mean what I think you mean the only adult content is a little bit of violence and murder, never the ā€œotherā€ adult. I think the most violent part I wrote was the turning of Puny, Sinaaki, Twiluna, Borbarsa and Giambalin to my Five Champions and when I sacked and enslaved Stormwind after the wedding I manipulated.

ā€œAdultā€ has been done, but only for people who specifically asked for it and it was edited out of the content i post on the forum for obvious reasons.

I dont rven know how many forumers and who have been it now. I keep adding as well lol. Gives me an excuse to continue my murderous rampage

Thank you. I know itā€™s only a small snippet, but even in that short part, is their anything I can improve on? The character isnā€™t ā€œcopyingā€ Illidanā€™s story arc, too much? (I know some might think itā€™s copy/paste, but on a female character.)

What I read I really enjoyed. And in truth I would not worry of if it is too similar to Illidan. I did not get that feeling from what I read at least. I think you should carry on writing, because it is a great hobby and you are good at it. Lots of love. :heartpulse:

Thank you! I am doing and what I love is creating a character who isnā€™t morally right. Sheā€™s not evil, but sheā€™s not morally good either.

The fact that she supports the WoTA, to some degree, is quite exciting to think about :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

This is the character that Iā€™m using for my fanfiction.

I hoped to capture her arrogance and imperialism, with a small amount of ā€œhow does this benefit me?ā€ behavior.
