    Hello mates, updated my master post with a few updates. Decided to dabble in some Shane stuff, I'd like feedback on how I do with him, since I'm new with writing his character.

        Chapter 15 is up. Whoa, it was nuts getting it out! I spent most of weekend coding my more dialog mod ( gave Abigail 28 new lines for Spring!) so I wrote all 6,000 words of this in the span of two nights! And man is it a nice chapter, in my opinion! Some serious love in the chapter :D

          I've been rushing about from doctor appointment to doctor appointment because of the jaw snapping shut on my finger thing, plus other ones. See the doctor about the finger tomorrow, and will probably end up getting an x-ray to see if it is bruised, broken, or outright shattered. So no time to write even if I could tolerate writing more than a few minutes at a time. I figure at this point I may as well keep you all updated on it, until someone tells me to shut up. :V

          In the meantime, it means I get to read all the things.

                  @Satashi26 Haha, funny story about that--I totally have forgotten to update my fanfic in the forums, so I'm 4 days late over here when I posted back on Fanfiction.net & Wattpad back on the 20th. Whoops! :whoop:

                      I want to start a story set after my current playthrough. It would be 75% Slice of Life 24% humour 1% serious

                              Yes and no?

                              I do write, but I don't have much in the way of ideas for SV. I was doing a story mostly as something to use as a script for a comic I was wanting to do.

                                  Mostly the few things I have are sketch designs for my farmer. :3

                                  Trying to get the design down-pat in my mind so I can do it from memory without needing previous sketches.

                                  Writing wise I may be able to do a few short stories, but I'm way out of practice on the wordcraft scene. :rofl:

                                        does anyone have any advice on how they plan their fics out? And maybe how long something needs to be.

                                        I've been wanting to do a story about my farmer, with different origins and circumstances than the game to keep things ~interesting~. But after the starting point, I'm left scratching my head. So I need a lil' bit of a push or motive, and I'm just wondering how you guys went about it.

                                        i should look for those character memes and maybe do some bios, hehe

                                          I'm the WORST person to give advice, but I'll tell you what I do anyway in hopes that it can help or at least offer a different viewpoint

                                          So first off, I don't plan. I don't have an outline or anything like that. I generally just write and see how it goes. This can be good or bad, depending. Sometimes it makes for semi-decent chapters and sometimes for really good ones. Just depends on how it goes XP So I just sit and write and let my characters do their things.

                                          For length, I personally think 3,000 words is chapter worthy. Anything under is a little short, and anything over is a nice longer read. I also generally have pictures of the characters up on my screen somewhere . It's a nice thing to look at to really capture their personality.

                                          SO! After you get your start, just keep going. You don't really need an overlaying plot or goal. A slice-of-life fic is just as entertaining as a well thought out one. Also I think you should try to stick to your genre as much as possible. People come to your story for that thing, and if you suddenly swap out you might lose readers. For example don't start hardcore action and in-depth story mode and then bring in bunnies named THE ULTIMATE DARK LORD because it'll throw them off. Instead, start with the bunny. Because bunny.
