@systemcat but you also present your work in comic format, which is a different ballgame entirely. A "slow start" is more palatable if there are other appealing aspects to it, and that's often a matter of opinion anyway. Art, period, is subjective.))- Claire Yeon

So far, the only thing I haven't changed about my first chapter is the opening sentence: "Fifty feet from the helicopter, a rush of lightheadedness caused Claire Yeon to sway."))- Claire Yeon

In my defense, I'm also the kind of reader where if a story doesn't captivate me from the first page, I stop reading. Therefore, it is essential that the first few paragraphs are nearly flawless))- Claire Yeon

At the moment? One half. I have rewritten the first chapter more times than I can count. My original first draft hit 20 pages before I scrapped it. I have a document of notes, outlines, and scenes in reserve that is about 50 pages long.))- Claire Yeon

Most of what I have written into Claire's backstory is prior to her association with VILE. For about a year, I have been working on a novel-length story that details her biggest adventure to date, set between six to eight months before she joined VILE. It's very entertaining - at least to me -...- Claire Yeon

In a way, you are still a character. You are just electing to not create a personality and backstory apart from your reality, which is fine. Pretty sure @Morgan is Carmen Sandiego IRL anyway, so this is not a stretch of the imagination by any means.))- Claire Yeon

And that's okay! We are glad you're here. :) You are an artist and storyteller, and you love Carmen Sandiego, so therefore, you belong.))- Claire Yeon

I didn't have any role-playing experience when I joined here, and when I first found this site, I held off on joining because I didn't think I'd enjoy it or be any good at it. I still maintain that I'm not any good at it, but darn if I haven't had a fantastic time developing my character and...- Claire Yeon

Perhaps my AMA; I think that would go for most of us here. That's where we got a chance to really deep-dive in our characters and discuss the things that are most important to us, our motivations, our histories, etc. I haven't shared any of my non-CS fandom work here.))- Claire Yeon

I am working on another one-shot character journal; I hope to finish it by the end of the week, but knowing me, I'll make decent progress tonight but then not be able to write more than a sentence at a time for the next three months))- Claire Yeon

All my business partners - mortgage, investments, etc - have been instructed to work from home. Our walk-in traffic is slow but we're still incredibly busy from our pipelines and what does come in. I'm frustrated because we're still being asked to invite clients in for appointments, but at least...- Claire Yeon

Tenchi Masaki:
Start looking at all the pubsLucy said:ok we're gonna have to start asking "Where In The World is..... Chase Devineaux"
-
Lucy:
Okay so V confirmed that messages are sending..... Tenchi if you see this, I am having trouble with the site. Julie says she can't send private messages either. V says my profile is missing from her end. Is this related to the microsoft thingy? I changed my e-mail because I was having trouble with Gmail and now the recovery e-mail hasn't made it. -
Lucy:
I talked to another member and she said that the problems with the site might be in part due to that massive Microsoft outage that happened yesterday.....

Walled garden refers to corporate social media. The issues are back-end issues (code that runs things as opposed to front-end being the visual part of web design) -

I'm going to see if I can find which forum host this uses to check what the problem may be

Lucy:
I've been trying to think about what this might run on for days since I've been having trouble
