WhispersintheMist Quite nicely I have to say. It's not warriors related. Its about a vampire crashing on the couch of a man in nyc. It's meant to be simple and somewhat comedic. I've just finished the first third of it (i think). That sounds fun! For me, writing about cats comes much easier than writing about humans. I had to write a short story for school and took a month to do it. Actually, I wasn't even done then, but my mom threatened to ground me if I didn't finish it the next day. So, since then I haven't written anything based on humans.

WhispersintheMistActually I've had a lot more with cats sadly tbh. mostly because before this year, the last thing i read that wasn't for school was warriors back when i was still in middle school. my writing chops have been really rusty until recently.

Haha yeah I get you. When I noticed my writing mechanisms needed a little greasing, I would picture a situation some made-up Warrior cat would have been in and jumped straight into the scene, with absolutely no plans at all, and would go on for pages and pages. I don't think it's good enough to develop into an actual, complete story though.

WhispersintheMistsometimes a few pages is enough for a story. if you're finding it hard to write I think writing a bunch of dialogue, then going back to add the details works wonders

mothsnap: Oh, thanks for the tip! I just might try it. It's just that my mock 'stories' leave a lot of loose ends when I wrap them up. For that big arc I told you about, I'm actually going to do some serious plotting and worldbuilding. Which reminds me: how's Forest of Mist coming along?

WhispersintheMistI'll be happy to beta read for you whenever you want Forest of Mist is doing find. I've gotten a few pages into chp 4, but it's a heavy action scene so I'm going to have a bit of trouble. I feel like it helps to bounce back and forth between projects just to keep it all fresh

One of my stories is based off of the RP in my signature. It's about a group of people with powers who are being used as experiments and try to escape the situation that they are in. I'm also planning a story about a pair of siblings who find a secret room in their house and decide to explore it.

Sησω is the secret room story going to be like a horror suspense type story or more like narina?

WhispersintheMist - I did a couple of years ago when I was into Warriors, though I never finished it. mothsnap - Kind of in the middle. I plan for the siblings' findings to be normal at first (as of old books and pictures and stuff), though stuff starts to become magical.

mothsnap: Trying to develop my scattered ideas into an actual plot I can work with, while trying to juggle worldbuilding at the same time. Also, someone on here just told me to 'get a spine' and I was a bit hurt, and posted a response that I hope will clear the air. That's really ruined my mood, though.

Heya Moth! If you can, can you critic my fanfic "The Manipulative Doctor"? It basically follows Shadowkit becoming an evil medicine cat hence the name "manipulative doctor", his struggles with Light, Pounce, etc. How he manipulates cats to carry out his dirty work which ends up getting them exiled. The rest of the plot is currently being branched out, and being that I am currently writing a 113 pg comic, am only on chapter 3 I believe. You're just a great writer in general so when I saw this it urged me to post this. Btw love the caribou idea where the cats hunt in large groups. Must have a ton of cats, eh?

I love anything tigerstar I am a writer! And thank you, but the story is actually about Tigerheart and Ivystar rising to be leaders, and then they fall in love. It's basically a whole bunch of what ifs. It was my first-ever story, so it's also at least somewhat crappy. But you can still read if you like. Stuck In The Middle is a bit more recent, and should have better writing, but it's currently on hold as I finish Tiger's Beytray.

OwlmoonI've started reading a bit of Stuck in the Middle. It's a little too "high school teen romance" for me. I was never really into those types of stories. If you want any critique I'd say be careful of pacing. Sometimes the character's actions are too sudden and it makes to seem rash and a bit silly for doing what they do. If you want to develop complex relationships you're going to have to take it slow.
