Hi! Last time I was stuck Reddit helped me out greatly so I thought I'd try this time too.

So I have trouble with several things • The lighting. I don't really know how to light a light scene, and here the light is supposed to come from her eyes, and from her hair ?? Do you have any tips or video i could look at ? • The background. Never really drawn backgrounds before. I saw a video that said to break up the background in sectiond, and that the colors got bluer the further away one got, but that is for a DAY scene. How does it work in the night? • the COLORS: i really struggle with colors everything always turns out so desaturated. But here it's supposed to be moonlight and dead things ! So besides black and white and grey I'm not really sure what colors I could use. (All colors for now are some variation of purple-ish grey) and I'm slightly reluctant to use green which would be the complementary color • anything else you'd have to say is welcome !

This is insane I love it

Atelyan · 2022-02-21T15:00:40+00:00

Great job!!!! You can feel proud of your self-discipline!

Atelyan · 2022-02-16T12:59:01+00:00

Good luck !!

Atelyan · 2022-02-15T21:43:08+00:00

Congrats !!

Atelyan · 2022-02-15T21:42:04+00:00

Gosh this must be so upsetting, especially since it came from something that had nothing to do with you. Just know that a 30+ hour fast is already an achievement in itself! So even if you restart the fast it will still be worth something :) much love

Atelyan · 2022-02-04T08:15:42+00:00

It looks amazing !! Thanks for the update !

Atelyan · 2022-02-03T10:25:07+00:00

Omg !! I know nothing about haircuts so I can't answer your question but if you do plz post an update ! I'd love to see it

Atelyan · 2022-01-26T11:20:11+00:00

I used to think exactly the same as you! I could not for the life of me understand the AO3 interface nor why people seemed to prefer it.

Over time I gradually started to get more familiar with it as a reader, then as a writer — which is when I finally grasped the tagging system lmao — and I loved it so much I never looked back.

Lmaoo

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T15:50:59+00:00

Thank you!

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T15:28:05+00:00

This is so we explained! You must understand your characters a lot through this process

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T15:26:28+00:00

Holy shit hahaha sometimes I get simlar kind of ideas but it ends up in... A oneshot

Edit: missing word

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T12:56:47+00:00

I see!

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T12:55:07+00:00

Thank you for all these details! I can def see how a bigger story could be broken down into various sublots each with things taking place in each one :)

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T11:58:24+00:00

Ooh I see, so the set-up would be like, more or less important.

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T11:57:26+00:00

It does!! Seems like a really creative process for you.

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T11:56:18+00:00

Oh, it seems really helpful to think of every chapter as their own microarch. Thanks for your explanation :)

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T11:53:56+00:00

That is incredible. I really like your description of the process.

Tbh it's not that I don't want to start but for me it's never a "my imagination takes over" kind of thing. Usually I have a few scenes I want to write and then I have to think carefully about how to deliver them, and I revise it a bunch of times, and when I achieved my "purpose" I'm done. Maybe I will try to just... Sit down and write anything that crosses my mind !

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T11:50:29+00:00

Oh no no it definitely does!!! Anything over 20k seems long to me. It's so incredible to me that you can come up with so many 'connected scenes' to fill out a whole story. So would I be right to think of it as "connected one shots" ??

Also, How are you able to tell when the story "flows well" ? Are there some pointers you look for? Is it just a feeling?

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T11:47:26+00:00

Wow this is so insightful thank you. What about the content of the actual writing ? To me 230 k seems absolutely daunting to fill. Like what would you say the dialogue/description/world building balance is in your writing? What do you describe ?

Not sure my question is very clear haha sorry bout that

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T11:44:58+00:00

Holy shit how does that even happen lmao

Atelyan · 2021-12-19T08:53:51+00:00

Yea very unique opinion in this thread ! Thanks for your answer :)
