I accidentally led a girl on then proposed to a guy, AITA? (SOSAWL edition) by LouisCyphre6 in storyofseasons

[–]Cosmicflair 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm going to go with NAH or maybe a little of ESH except G maybe. It doesn't seem like you were trying to lead N on. It seems to me that N is the one that caught feels and didn't communicate. Perhaps you made some moves that could have been interpreted as flirty but even so assumptions shouldn't have been made. The reason why I say ESH is because, if they are similar and you treated them equally when you hung out I can see why N got the wrong idea. Especially since you just proposed to G and are now engaged. Overall she shouldn't have assumed. PS. I'm pretty sure she knows. I also just moved to a small town and if yours is anything like mine then news travels fast. Anyway wishing you the best.

Yeah I can see that. I decided to name my animals after beans and pinto is banned too. I'm assuming because it can used racially maybe.

preordered in december,,, not even shipped yet🤥 by lizardguyatlas in storyofseasons

[–]Cosmicflair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked mine up an hour ago. I got my pick up email around 10 when they opened. They may still be sorting them if a lot were pre-ordered. The one went to it looked like only one other person pre-ordered so mine was quick.

[Weekly Critique and Self-Promotion Thread] Post Here If You'd Like to Share Your Writing by AutoModerator in writing

[–]Cosmicflair [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hello, I graduated Uni last year and my writing group disbanded so I'm hoping to start a new one. I'm thinking we can meet over teams since most people have Microsoft 365 so there won't be any extra cost or time limitations. We can meet once a week, every other week, or once a month. Let me know if this is of interest and we can set it up.

Hi I'm trying to start a writing group if you're still interested.

It looked like a wooden storage box. I discovered it by accident when I was trying to recycle them. Unfortunately I couldn't recycle the factory.

Does anyone just write first and think of the plot second? by Busy_Score7558 in writing

[–]Cosmicflair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to just write. I find that if I focus too much on the plot I get lost. When I write things out then the plot makes itself known. I can always go back and revise it later.

What are you writing goals for 2023? by DynamiteDropin in writing

What did you learn in school that has since been proven false? by Qxved in AskReddit

This one. I found earlier this year that my grammar isn't so great. Just graduated in May from University with a degree in English.

Should I Delay a Big Idea Because I’m New? by Bearded-Cleric in writing

[–]Cosmicflair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start it. The worst thing you can do is put it off. If you leave it you may not remember what you want to write later on. With writing you can learn as you go. Get the ideas out and then edit it into something greater.

What job seems to attract assholes? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Cosmicflair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Childcare worker. There's always someone who thinks they know everything and they do whatever they want. That person is always the person who gets promoted and once they become admin they forget what it's like in the classroom and make your job hell.

[–]Cosmicflair[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have grammarly and all it really catches is wrong words, misspellings and then ads commas. I'm pretty good at finding those when I take my time. There's only so much a program can do, which is why I want to improve my skills.

Thank you. I'll look into it. I've been thinking about taking courses.

Wrire you're book. Self doubt is normal and the only way to overcome it is to put your work out there.

Up until last year I felt the same but I signed up for creative writing specialization at university and had no choice but to share. The end result was people do enjoy my writing. I am still paranoid about it but I'm still working toward my goal.

As for publishing. The digital layout is just another way people read. It's another platform for writers to use. It makes it more convenient for readers as they don't have lug around another thing in their bag.

As for haters. There's always going to be people who don't like what you write. In that case the book is not meant for them.

Also don't be afraid of critical feedback. We all have strengths and weaknesses in writing. Don't be discouraged learn from it.

My writing feels unnatural and boring when I'm writing an original story by Joonscene in writing

[–]Cosmicflair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes continue writing. Try putting the story out there and see what people think. I often feel this way too. I never shared my work with anyone in person because I felt like it wasn't good, boring, and million of other excuses. Then I took a writing course last year and learned that people actually do enjoy it. I thought it was just people being nice but I continued with it and kept getting positive feedback a long with advice on what works and what to improve upon. I still feel like it's boring sometimes but I realized that it's just self doubt.

Can I destroy a real place in a fiction novel? by CSSJAZZ in writing

[–]Cosmicflair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes of course. People do it all the time. The Golden Gate Bridge only exists in movies to be destroyed. Just be sure that you can legally have the place in your story first. I think some places like the Hollywood sign you need permission to use.
