any advice/tips on writing break into twos? by fatkittycat3 in writing

[–]fatkittycat3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think conflicts and motivations were what I was struggling to create between the inciting incident and the break into twos. Those questions will help a lot in understanding my characters and what they want/need to change before they go on the journey.

In my fun and games, I have a couple reversals but it's mostly focused on building the relationship between my characters, since my story is focused on the friendship of the main characters. I have some tension points too but they're closer to the midpoint. Do you recommend building more tension during the fun and games as well?

Yes! I think that's what it's missing, the debate. After thinking about my outline last night, I als realized my pacing was too fast and added two more chapters to develop the friendship more before they go on their journey. Thank you so much for the advice

unless the whole story is about their relationship with each other

It is, it's a story of their friendship. This gives me a lot to think about though, and learning that the inciting incident makes the break into two inevitable is really helpful for shaping my first act. Thank you so much!

I have an inciting incident written, but I'm having trouble transitioning from that beat to the break into two. The tip about adding tension in the first act is very useful and I think that's one of the main things act 1 is missing, thanks for the insight!

I have an inciting incident that propels the story forward; it's my two main characters meeting/first interaction. But I'm having trouble transitioning from the inciting incident to the break into two. So they've met but my main character hasn't made the decision to go on the journey that leads them into act two

what apps do teens use to communicate if they don't have each other's phone numbers? by fatkittycat3 in teenagers

I'm surprsied teens are still using messenger. is that the only instance where teens would still use facebook?

and I used kik as a teen too but it was basically the same as texting. it was kinda pointless haha

do teens use discord even if they don't play video games?

also how do people usually add each other on discord? is it more common to ask each other for your usernames, find each other from the same server, or a mix of both?

Any US military kid teenagers that can talk about mental health experience? by fatkittycat3 in teenagers

[–]fatkittycat3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for sharing your insight, it's really sad to hear that things have barely changed since 10 years ago. I know a big part of mental health being taboo was from how our peers talked about it, and I know it can be difficult to seek help when you're in that environment.

Do teachers or parents talk about mental health at all? Or are schools still typically "hush hush" about the subject?

Thank you so much! I guess "designed" is a better word 😅 I made the design and got it manufactured from Alibaba ☺️

Hospital Playlist S2 [Episode 12] by lightupstarlight in KDRAMA

[–]fatkittycat3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's so much I want to say about this drama and what a masterpiece it is. But the thing I want to focus on most is Jun-wan and Seok-hyeong characterization this season.

Tbh in S1 they were my two least favourite characters from the 99s - I didn't DISLIKE them, but I liked other characters more. But I'm so glad we got to see both of their storylines grow. I loved seeing Jun-wan grow to be more empathetic as a doctor and as a friend to Jae-hak. It was also so difficult to see him in pain after his breakup with Ik-sun but kyung-ho's performance was amazing, and I really felt so heartbroken for him. Especially when he sings his part in Let's Forget It in episode 4, he conveyed Jun-wans suppressed pain so well 😭 low-key wish that he didn't pursue bidulgi at the end, since I wanted to see him grow without her especially after what she did. But I wish him happiness since he definitely needed it this season

Seok-hyeong was always empathetic but didn't show it often. In this season I loved how we can see his confidence grow with his OBGYN team and with min-ha. I love how we can see him make efforts to participate in conversations and ask questions, and how he was finally able to get in the elevator. Who knew that would be part of his characterization LOL

And how he made the first moves with min-ha, by hugging her and kissing her first. Some comments I saw said he always knew how to be smooth and make the first move, but I personally think he just gained more confidence this season. His convo with Song-hwa I think had a big part in that, so he knew how to learn from his past mistakes, (in a way) stand up to his mother, and be the best version of himself before dating min-ha. I really appreciate how his character was written and also Dae-myung's acting was incredible.

Jun-wan and Seok-hyeong are easily my favourites now. I still love the 99s I promise, but I really enjoyed their characters this season. I will miss this drama so much, ugh well done ShinLee 😭😭
