Brag a little. What are your top 3 favorite things about your story?

ThunderChicken 2024-03-06 22:08:22 UTC #16

For Wild Nights, Hot and Crazy Days, my favourite things about my story are:

1: It's true. Some parts of it may be unbelievable, but it all happened.
2: That I've been blessed with a near photographic memory and thus was able to remember the details of a story spanning two decades that began forty years ago
3: That I finally got around to telling it. I mean, I've only been putting it off since the mid 1990's

Extra special bonus #4, and the one that's gonna sound most like bragging: My absolute favourite thing about it is the feedback, the people who have reached out to me to tell me how much they enjoyed reading it (some of these people were actually in the story)

photographic memory, putting together bikes since grade school, building your own cottage, you are a human right, not like some sort of magic spell-casting elf?

The diversity of the cast: This story has characters from lots of cultures, including, but not limited to, Ghanaian, Thai, Melanesian, German, Russian, Korean and African American, just because i love seeing people from other cultures and wanted to include them in the story.
How much it's evolved: I wrote this story when I was 14. Digging it back up and rewriting it has been very very hard, but the story now is beautiful, and I'm proud of it.
And my favorite: All the ways fairy tale concepts are woven into the plot. It's very much fairy tale inspired so all the ways fairy tale references make their appearance is beautiful to me.

Uhhh. Really hard for me to say since I'm super critical of my own art/writing.

First thing: How I write Sauria and Dart's dynamic. I do have some enjoyment over writing Dart's dialogue and the sorts.

Secondly: Sauria's whole background and how I write her struggles as a half-human/half-demon as well as other things going on for her story. I plan to elaborate more on her past and explore more of what's going on with her. I also enjoy working out her development and changing her throughout the comic.

Thirdly: The group that's trying to capture/recruit the main character, Sauria. It was really messy at the start but I've fleshed them out more over time and I've been trying to spin around the messiness of the group. I have a lot planned out for them and their leader.

I was kinda struggling to think these over without spoiling too much. I contemplated having my brother just write down what he likes lol.

Hybrid: Humanity

Genre: Fantasy / Action

Description: In the 1800s, an unprecedented convergence of demons and humanity altered the course of history, sowing the seeds of conflict and camaraderie. Now, in the world of the 2100s, a half-demon teenager is drawn into a realm teeming with covert battles and concealed truths.

Within this intricate tapestry of magic and mystery, ancient pools of power house unrevealed potentials, ready to ignite. Accompany our enigmatic protagonist as she journeys through a world where allegiances flicker like shadows, and the distinction between friend and foe remains perpetually uncertain.

1 - Our slow-burn story focused on allowing the characters to grow not only in powers but also as people in a credible and satisfying way.

2 - The intrinsic world of the games that no other comic has created so far. People may think it's just another drip into the ocean of system-focused comics that exist, but once they get to know the system and the world that keeps it going, it's clear ours is a breath of fresh air in the genre.

3 - Vlad. Many may think this is a silly point, but Vlad is based on someone who was extremely important in my life and who sadly met his demise way too soon. He's a tribute to someone I'd do anything to have back, but unfortunately, I can't, no matter how much I wish so.

Twists - Many small twists that are foreshadowed to some extent
Plot - You think it's one kind of plot, but it was a different plot all along
Death - Characters wounds and deaths are permanent and will affect the story going forward

"If ever there was a man caught in the machinations of cosmic design, it was Besh." Besh, the character, is versatile, having many iterations. He adapts seamlessly to his new reality, sort of like a Dr. Who. There are many embodiments of Besh: the middle-aged man, the old man, the man reborn, the possessed warrior, etc. He will soon be seen in his original iteration in the prequel, The Regret.

The far-flung future gives me elbow room to be creative in a speculative sense. The Space Bum series offers a casual approach to the future of mankind, where everything has changed but remains the same. There is new technology, weapons, evil villains, and scary aliens.

My secondary characters are textured and layered, adding an essential aspect to both the main character and the storyline.

Leyelle 2024-03-31 01:03:18 UTC #24

It's definitely very fulfilling when stories are like this. sort of like gothic fiction

@PenguinAngel

NOTHING that you think could happen?

PenguinAngel 2024-04-09 12:16:20 UTC #25

Explanation: sometime ago i discussed with one if my friend (she actually work in the animation world, so she's quite understanding in the concept of story telling, showing and all, she's on e of the main one that help me a lot) explain to me that one of the things that usually let her down on many comics are the repetitive plots and the fact that she's almost aware of what it's gonna happen in that moment, like "many stories are now so look alike, that I know what's gonna happen in the next part of it, and i this gave me zero interest into following the story at all".
One of her comments say that this one do not apply on my own story,. since i decided to step aside to what people usually like, because i know that what people will like is made by me.
One that i take now (since i recently started to read the manga) is Oda (One Piece). Luffy is a chaotic character, what happen in the story are usually based on some rules that he had made and so they need to do it.
Why should i stay longer that i need on an island? The log pose need to be setted.
Why i want to see an island in the sky? Because i WANT IT.

Every fight scars or kills a character
Lots of twists and turns
Colorful and adorable characters

Ooh, pink giraffe, that's a really unique design

The characters
The magic system
The complexity of the world

"I ain't afraid of no demon." It's a running joke. Demons are suppose to be scary but they are just horny goobers and everyone knows it.
Unlike other reincarnation novels, ML actually tells FL about his past life.
The noise the wolves make in the novel. Someone on web novel commented on my chapters with just the wolf noises. In chapter 21, the wolf will reappear lol.

For Psychoborg, it's the nostalgia, it pushed me out of my comfort zone and most importantly, it is my big moment.

For MK's Frankenstein, I always wanted to an adaptation of Frankenstein, the monster is the star and Frankenstein is the true villain through and through.

Leyelle 2024-04-09 21:59:37 UTC #32

what makes it your big moment?

jmhenry 2024-04-09 23:43:01 UTC #33

More than happy to! Here's what I love about LOSTLAND

1. The Setting: It took years to get there, but love how much the world of LOSTLAND has developed and, to me, feels like the most unique take on a post apocalyptic world. There's so much lore and history in it that's yet to appear in the main story, and still plenty more that may need a few side stories to go over in the future!

2. The Scenery: Bit of an expansion on the above. I had a ton of fun just taking each region of the LOSTLAND and finding unique ways to create a post apoc setting that felt 'lively'. Like a new world was being born in replace of the old one. Ancient buildings melded into massive canyons, submerged cities beoming large swamp lands, teeming with mysterious, new life. I wanted to make a world whereeach corner of it was somewhere people would be curious about and ant to explore

3. The Characters: I just love them all. Every time I created a new character, they also came along with a bit of backstory that goes more in-depth about them as people, yes, even the 3 Sanctum Patrolmen in the first chapter have backstories and a plan for their characters down the line XD Thinking of each character in that mch depth is just a bit of a nice pastime for me. One day, I'd love to just do a compilation of short stories involving each of the side characters I create throughout LOSTLAND

Let's Go Hero is complex in its own right... and the upcoming third arc is only going to add onto that. However, it doesn't mean I don't love how amazing the story is.

I love how the story's three musketeers are an iconic trio. Most people would think its Kai, Kyoge, and Mikate... as in the chapter they are introduced in involves those three... but that isn't the case.
I enjoy how the fights play out past what I originally planned.
Making the techniques of characters can be a little difficult, but it pays off when done properly.

In a future where nanotechnology has granted humans supernatural abilities, a boy granted with the strangest one of them all attempts to become the greatest hero history has ever seen...

Leyelle 2024-04-10 00:03:54 UTC #35

Often time my scenes spiral out or beyond what I originally planned too lol
