I read 4 grades above my own. I understand your pain.
heard of lore-diggers? (sry if im rude) I’m one, along with most of my friends.
yeah it’s also not allowed to have qr codes though
and honestly we ended that conversation
Yeah! Virtual high five
Techniacally, all talk of lore is on topic.
but, it’s not really helping others.
the owner of the topic can decide what they want people talking about on their topic
yeah sure talk about lore, only if you’re helping others.(with making lore)
omg this is post 69
Sad tips:
Add lots of ellipses (…) But don’t overdo it!
Add things like “If only…” “But I can’t…” “I’m not good at …” for a more hopeless sort of feel
Use sad words like the ones in the replies above
Add a lot of crying/sniffling/lying in bed/feeling like they have no purpose/hopelessness
End with a “Will I be able to…” or “I’ll probably fail…” To add some doubt (also can be used throughout the story, not just at the end)
If at the end your character goes out and does something, lead into it with “I’ll probably fail, but I have to try” or “It’s not going to work, but I need to do this for ___”
If your character decides to do nothing at the end, lead into it with “I know for a fact I’ll fail, so there’s no point in doing this.” or “It’s never going to happen. I’m not doing this.”
Lots of lying in bed
Isolation from other people in their life
More time on screens/alone
Deterioration of health/cleanliness (if it’s that bad)
Nothing much happening for a bit
Hard to do their job/go to school
Hard to do daily activities
(Also negative connotations and sad imagery)
I’ve got a lot of experience writing/living sad stories…
Plus I read 2-3 levels above my grade level
(probably more but I don’t know the actual number)
@VWOOM lol
I was taking a break, and I left my computer open so I guess it showed that I was still typing…? Idk
Also @DXCTYPE You can use this, just credit me pls
And this is my 69th day on the forums…
And Its my 102nd day on the forums (days I’ve visited)
My 90th… (days I’ve visited)
O_O 102, gosh dang… for a sec I thought you were gonna say 138 days
109 for me
Oh wait it’s been 119 days since I joined
(I mean I took a break in nov-dec so it makes sense compared to my days visited)
so basically use negative and positive connotation and other ela elements
sorry just had to pitch in
my 165th day visiting! i’ve been visiting consecutively since i joined!
Well yeah but there are a lot of
elements other than connotations
(Word choice, voice, sentence fluency, organization, structure, etc.)
Also, wow! Good commitment!
looks like we have some ela nerds here…
(me, VWOOM, eiqcrmeliutgwhc, and I_Like_Props)
oh sry if i was rude
