    Happy Holidays to you too. ❤
    Still don't feel like posting here. Not after getting total rejection over my hard work. The comic hasn't stopped running.
    *leaves ? with assorted notebooks, ? (colored pencils) ?✏and ?with a note that says,"Here are a few things to help with your artistic endeavors." And leaving a ? and a ?with a note that says, "Don't forget to make a wish." * ?
    My words aren't worth anyone's time. ... I'm just going to be silent when giving updates for the comic. ... and I'm debating posting Shattered here when it's finished. Over 80 pages so far and no one wants to read what I write.
    ... I have no idea if these postings are being read. Am I alone in being excited Shattered is now longer than Vocal Canvases in length? The end still feels aways in sight for writing it. ... I really hope this story doesn't dud. To me it feels like every time I try to please people, I fail.

    I couldn't do that. The depth at which I relay words ( nearing 100 pages on a certain story ), I don't know how to write in story bites. I consider that an RPer's talent.

    I guess that's true in a way. But I have done that from the beginning on here. The difference is that we didn't always have emojis. Now we do. Sometimes I even make my status match a story that I've posted. Like with my Female Sherlock Holmes Costume. I'm sure you could do something like that. ?

    Over in IGU back when it was really active, there was a pair of members, friends with each other who RPed a lot. Both of them used to take advantage of the place's emote collection to relay their words. Really amusing to see play out. Not story writing but once in a while inspired by that typing practice, over there, I post like that.
    I'm now 67 pages into writing Shattered and I still don't see finishing writing it in the immediate future. This story is going to be longer than Vocal Canvases. ( Editing in: looking back at earlier posts. This wasn't intentional. I posted an update when Vocal Canvases hit the same page count. ... guess that's just the mark that tells me a lot has been written. ? )
    There is a strong chance I'm finishing working on page 109 today of Loaded Stone. ... No one has shown any interest in me saying my two cents about the latest pages. ... I'm just not going to even put up the minimal question with this coming page. No one wants me to say anything. If things continue this way for the next few pages. .. I'll stop posting them here. ?
    Working on writing chapter eight right now of Shattered. ... I really hope this doesn't dud in the end when published unlike it's connected art. ?
    Am I doing bad with the media I'm creating and sharing?

    Some of it hasn't been worth acknowledging. ?
    ... Not that anyone cares. I'm into chapter two for proof checking Vocal Canvases and that story people aren't interested in, I've named Shattered. That's no reflection on mood. It's a duo named title of metaphorically and literally what's happening in the story.

    do you have a link to the story?
    I just discovered last night I'm 67 pages into writing Vocal Canvases. It's nearing being finished written at this point minus proof checking. Like in story, wrapping up VILE being dealt with and getting the main characters back to the United States. At a guess it's going to be somewhere over 70 pages finished. I swear I'm going to celebrate finishing it. ?

    ((OOC: So, I am still here (at least, while ACP is still a thing, then I have to tether my phone to my laptop, send it's internet to Ethernet to my router and setup my other laptop to access that... I managed it once totally by accident)... updating stuff I'm working on is not a fun process (if anyone checks my stories folder on my Google Drive) anymore... the laptop at my desk is old (Core 2 Duo, 2Ghz, 4 gigs RAM, Win7 Ultimate)... Chrome won't update, Drive won't work... I'm stuck using FreeFileSync to keep stuff up to datep things synced. I have plans of getting a job and having money to have something better (a doorstop is better)

    [continuing] I'm sorry if any of my posts are/could be inflammatory or anything... some of them are stuff I've had in the pipeline for a while, and I messed with it enough to get it postable... that's why there are dates showing when I started working on stuff... I'm not, and never have been, trying to step on anyone's toes or say "this is how it should be"... I have no say here, not sure who does these days (like I posted... maybe this is a test to see if we devolve into chaos). Posts like Hierarchy were started long ago, and meant as a guideline and not because I'm the voice of Sauron.

    [continuing] I don't have the time to be here a whole lot, I don't have much beyond mom to help with my rent (and once I have a job, that'll take up more time, though I will keep working on stuff (both for here and not) as often as possible, and post when possible on here. I have a question that needs some clarification... being that we are supposed to get permission from the person if we use their character in an addition/story/post, how would that apply if the character is core to the universe (like Carmen... I can replace @Chase, maybe cobble someone into @Ivy's place... but, like @Carmen, being that she's a major character, as long as I don't have her acting or write a major part for her, would that circumvent the rule at all?

    [continuing] I'm just curious... the absence of the major's leaves a gap that I'm not sure what to do with anything... we (the Left Behind) could do a story together (or some stories separate), and that'd be cool, but without being able to use any major's, I'm not sure where to take anything. And, yeah... you can probably guess what my typing is like here (or anyplace else)... I type here or in Word, I type something (or notepad), and 15-20+ seconds later it shows up, so I have to stay on top of my grammar and spelling. I have to keep on top of all that, because I'm working on the big Carmen story at the same time, so I can't slip off my game.))

    @Jon Eckart Not exactly sure if I understand all your computer probs. I hope you get those resolved soon. Yes, I have many probs with my basic Google Chrome, too. I think it's fair to say we all have a love/hate relationship with technology. 😆 As far as your stories are concerned, you can use any cannon character you like, whether there is a person playing that role on here or not. Say the story is a fanfiction; and that the version of Chase, or Carmen (or whoever) from the computer games, gameshow (or whatever). We don't do Netflix Carmen, mostly because of the violence. And because it is fanfiction, you can also create other characters and situations to suit your story. Now, Chase, Carme, Ivy (or whoever) were here, of course, you would ask their permission; tell them your idea; and if they like it they might write it with you. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you for a friendship with someone on--and off-site, you might form a partnership with them, and write stories together (like Chase and Carmen; or Chase and Ivy; or Lucy and I) and then you will just put a statement saying that this story is a co-write with whoever. In fact, if you collaborate with this person a lot, people will just assume they have your permission; although you should always say it anyway, just as a common courtesy. In fact, ironically, the only people whose permission you must always ask to use their characters are "original" characters, who are creations of their individual writers (which most of us on here, are) specifically because we are not cannon. I hope that makes sense. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you want to write something, but don't have a lot of time, I would suggest posting a status; or replying to someone else's status. Or you could start a guessing game. Look under Forums/Guessing Games, and look at some things other people have done, to give you ideas. I hope that helps. 🙂
