How The Superheroes Series Fantasy Adventure Story Began?

Wednesday, January 31, 2018
‘Sup? In my last post, I talked about being excited about writing a story series and how I look forward to completing it though it might take some time.

Now, let’s talk about how this fantasy adventure story began. You know what's really surprising is how this story evolved into this series that I really want to continue writing and working on. Wait, did I say that already?

The Adventures of The World’s Superheroes series first started out as just something random that I wrote, some mini-story that was only supposed to be one post or article and that’s it. It was like with some of my other story articles. They were one-shots and didn’t really have any continuations. Moreover, this particular story started out as a dialogue-only post with no actions or descriptions. It consisted of 2 people talking back and forth and they weren’t even named.

The whole dialogue-only story was something I’d been trying and experimenting with just like how I’d tried a no-dialogue story, among other things.

Anyway, after that though, I just kept getting ideas for this particular dialogue-only story, so the superheroes story evolved into something more than just a one-shot. Many of the posts or articles that make up the parts of this story still consisted of the dialogue-only format though.

But, soon, I started adding a few descriptions and actions here and there. I guess I'm taking this opportunity to experiment a bit more on styles of writing, different tones of voice and angles, etc (eh, I’ve been doing that in a lot of my articles lately) while also fleshing out the characters some more. There are some more nuances in said story, some things in there that you have to wonder if others will notice or get or realize or see.

Here are some of the comments from this article, back when it used to be posted elsewhere:

It is also worthwhile to give a copy to others to see if they can add anything interesting.

Not always. Sometimes, others simply screw things up for not sharing the artists' vision.

If one is writing something that will be co-authored by a lot of other people, then it would be right to let those involved make their contributions and add whatever they want to the plot or add whatever they think will be interesting. But if you're just the sole author of the story or article, then you don't need to let others have free reign over your article since you decide what to write and how the story goes.

This sounds like it could be some fun. Thank you for entering the contest.

Thanks and you're welcome 😃. As aforementioned, I am looking forward to writing some more.

Reason Why You Would Feel Excited

Sunday, January 21, 2018
There are many reasons why you would feel excited or happy or pleased. If we actually take the time to talk about them all, this post will never end.

So, for this particular post, let’s just focus on one thing. One of the things that makes me feel excited is writing my story. It’s- okay, wait, that’s not specific enough yet. Right, let’s try that again. I’m really looking forward to finishing the fantasy superheroes series (The Adventures Of The World’s Superheroes) I’ve been working on.

I'm excited because I’ve written a lot about it already and have even posted some parts and I'm looking forward to completing the entire thing, but, to be honest, it’s going to take a while since it’s a pretty long series.

I even wrote an outline and I know the general gist of what’s supposed to happen, but I’ve yet to write many of the scenes in said story. I’m so looking forward to actually finishing this story and writing it because- eh, I dunno, because it makes me happy? Because it’s fun? Because it’s awesome? Or something. Well, do we really need a reason for these kinds of things? Sometimes, we’re just excited about something or other and who needs a why, right? Why can’t we be excited just because?

Edited to add: by now, I've written a lot of this story, but it's still incomplete. I've been really busy lately, so I'm not sure when I'll be able to finish this series.

Here are some of the comments from this article, back when it used to be posted elsewhere:

A small tip about series: Use a different title on each installment. At least, this is what old hands tell me. Thank you for your entry. 😃

Thanks and you're welcome. That's what I plan on doing when I get 'round to posting it here. I plan on working on a summary or introduction first though 😃.
