I am a writer and illustrator for my friend Kitt and I's upcoming projects studio; "DAIOH!"

We create many stories and try to write and draw them, our goal is to get up a successful webcomic.

I have two stories, personally; "Blood Type: Be Positive!" Is a comedy about a young man who finds out his family funeral home is crawling with vampires!! The little Vampire Toby seems shy at first, but he has a secret intention towards the home that only Adolf, his rescuer; knows of.

This story contains BL and drama, but its mostly a romance comedy.

"Speaking Without words" is a magical-girl ecchi-yuri story about girls who live in the mountains to become one with the spirit of air. Surrounding them, each element has a said school that they train their new mages in of all elements--water, earth, fire, darkness and light. Sheila of the Wind has made it her goal to unite the nations to work together, however it might be difficult being a country-bumpkin on scholarship. Her only comfort is at night, her secret time spent in the earth kingdom with Evangeline the beautiful earth priestess...

A sort of romantic comedy with a lot of fun and yuri thrown in there too.

These two stories I am planning on posting to an art site soon, I must complete them first.

What kinds of stories or characters do you all have? <83

Before I zone off to sleep, Michael is wondering the kinds of stories and characters that want to be heard~ =w=

I would describe my writing as absurdist philosophical drama. I started posting short story-essay things at protograph.livejournal.com and there isn't much there yet, but I intend to therein produce one portion of quality writing every month. Any feedback at all on that is always appreciated; sometimes I feel as though my writing scares people away.

Stories I enjoy reading tend to be ones with multi-dimensional, lifelike characters, where reality is either explored to a boundary or altered in some way. The examples that come to mind are Thomas Pynchon's The Crying of Lot 49 and Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.

I have never ever wrote poetry or anything, but I think I am going to have a go and post what I come up with. am I right in thinking poetry doesn't have to Rhyme?

i used to write fiction and poetry (as well as some essays) in middle school and high school.

it's been a while since i've written anything, but i tend toward poetry and random types of short stories (you know...like, a person is on their way home from work when.....)

i also paint, draw, make pottery, etc... which is why i don't really write anymore.

but i have been wanting to write some philosophy/political theory.

i actually want to write a book. more for myself than in the hopes of getting it published.

i hope that helps.

peace&love

Fiction FTW! As you probably know from watching my dA for a short time, I'm currently writing a novel (And although it's for a grade, I'd write it anyway). Generally short psychologically messed up short prosetry type things are muchly fun to write.... Although I'm going to start writing a serial novel soon (supernatural/realistic fiction/ romantic comedy... Yes it's possible to have both supernatural and realistic fiction in the same story... Don't ask). But anything is fun, as long as I'm improving my writing. ^_^

I saw your novel on DA Nikk, as soon as I get some more medication I will be sure to read it!! It sounds really interesting.

I like to write sci-fi, but sometimes write poems.

I thought of a really good poem the other night right before I was going to sleep. I knew I should have gotten up and wrote it down somewhere because now I've forgotten how I phrased stuff. :(

I'm not very good at writing but I love it. I'm a big fantasy nerd. I would kinda call the stuff I write Mythopoeic. I'm heavily interested and so inspired by Tolkien and Frank Herbert's Dune series. I find it hard to keep myself focused with my writing and so I dont write epic novels but I tend to write storter stories (made-up myths) that all tie into the ultimate story.

I fit into two genres; fantasy and science-fiction, but I've mostly written fantasy so I voted that one, even though I think I'm equal in sci-fi and even melt the two together quite often.

I LOVE writing! It's a major passion of mine. I love bringing characters to life and designing complex storylines around them. I hope to write novels when I am older.

Oh! And I should probably also mention that I intend to write a transgender story here on the forums and have a poll up in the entertainment section right now to help me decide the theme.

I write fiction, mainly realistic... I love sci fi, but only in the capacity that I get to design the world in my head. I figure this is boring to other people so I don't write it.

I randomly write poems, where I kind of go "I think I should write a poem" and then just write whatever. I've only been inspired for reals like, twice. Or once. Idk.

I didn't used to write any short stories as I concieve of ideas in novel scale (okay, actually slightly short of a novel, which is where the work part comes in), but then I joined an lj comm for prose challenges, and have written two, one of which was about a transguy. (the cis readers had a little trouble with pronouns, but w/e)

And then I really want to complete a novel but I'm afraid I'll cut myself down with the automatic "omg it's not good" response that my writing gets whenever I finish it. Plus I have to work hard not to let my ideologies dictate the plot more than necessary.

Oh and 21 jump street fanfics. Those are fun and it can be as crappy as I want.

Characters... man, I have this awesome one I just found cleaning my room, actually this awesome start to a book. He's not very defined but I'm definitely writing this book next, if I ever get to finishing my current one. (did I say finishing? I mean.... starting). It kind of scares me how I wrote so well a year ago because I feel like I'm not as good now or something. But I think it's just the distancing from my work that I can read it without being embarassed.

      I wonder if the LGBTQI+ umbrella should be split? Create separate entities for LGB and TQI+ folk?    I have no doubt that some cis het people probably think that sexuality and gender identity are the same thing, for whatever the reason, not necessarily willful ignorance. It would be natural for such people to observe that both LGB and T folk are under the same umbrella, so they must be the same, right?   Just as (and I know I'm making some pretty big assumptions in this post) some cis gay folk would think that the LBGTQI+ umbrella is pie - give trans people a slice, and somehow, they will miss out. Just like cis het folk might also think that their lives are somehow being diminished by allowing trans people to have basic human rights.

      Some anxiety is building up inside.

      Suppressing your emotions because you’re afraid of them can be bad for your physical and mental health. Here’s what to do instead. When a toddler feels a “big” emotion, like anger or sadness, they tend to have a big tantrum on the floor. And these tantrums can be a lot to observe, full of thrashing, screaming, and tears. But a child reacts like this because the emotion they’re feeling is uncomfortable, maybe even painful.   Of course, as adults, we feel emotions too, and those feelings can be just as overwhelming, uncomfortable, or even painful as they were when we were children, even if we don’t let ourselves react in such a big way. But, sometimes, in our attempts to not give in to our emotions, we go too far: we run from them or suppress them — even if that harms us in the long run. Although there are many reasons we might suppress our emotions, one of them is that we are afraid of our emotions. Fear of emotions is called “animotophobia. It is not an official term in the DSM-5-TR. Still, fearing your emotions can have a significant impact on your well-being.

      @KaitSo glad you are here. It's never too late to talk to your doctor. bI was 68 before I stopped lying to myself and talked to my doctor. He or she might be able to help. It may be easier to find an endocrinologist you specializes or a health care group who specializes. You might also seek out a therapist who specializes to help with HRT resources. Psychology Today can help find therapists who specialize. Glad you are here. WELCOME.

      Good morning, everyone!   Coffee is flowing so my brain is beginning to function.    We've been busy caring for aging family members and trying to get the house open now that the weather is getting warmer. I've been working on getting the pool open and cleaned. It's almost ready for salt and starting up the heater. We may be swimming by next week.   But, it's raining here today so I guess I'll be stuck working inside.   Have a wonderful and safe, day!!

      I had that same outcome from my first colonoscopy years ago. It just triggered more frequent colonoscopies for a period of time. Hopefully, that will be the same plan for you.
    • Birdie
      Biopsies came back mostly clear except one, one polyp came back with abnormal cell growth (pre-cancerous). It was completely removed during the colonoscopy so I don't know yet if further action needs to be taken.

      Hey-o. My name's Kait. I haven't decided what to do about my last name yet. (Mononyms sound cool, but they're very problematic unfortunately).   I guess pronouns are important. They/them or it/its (strong preference for 'it/its').    Im not someone who's been active in the community for a long time, but I've known I was trans almost my whole life. It's just that financial, medical, and psychiatric struggles have kept it from the forefront of my priorities for 10 years or so. So basically during that entire time, I've been living as an AMAB, masculine-presenting person named kait. Which is not ideal, but I've been able to deal with it by dissociating from my body and viewing it as an appendage rather than as a 'self'.    Mostly I'm on here because I finally feel well enough mentally and physically to think about beginning HRT. Problem is, I really don't know where to start out what to do. I have an endocrinologist I see for an unrelated health issue, but honestly I don't have a very strong relationship with him. Is it best to start with my existing doctor? Or should I find an endocrinologist that specialises in this sub-field? What's the best available tech? Is 29 too late to be taken seriously about this by my doctor? I have no idea about these questions and so much more and I need help.   Side from trans stuff though, I'm the boringest person you'll probably ever know. I have a pretty rich inner life and a wonderful partner, but really all I do is work, sleep, and occasionally build tiny models.
