Alright, I've started a new FF9 fanfic. The only problem being that I really REALLY suck at portraying Beatrix. Anyone got any tips for a noob such as meself? I mean, I tend to portray her as military like and bossy. However I don't know how to portray her gentler side, like when she's with the Princess or her Loyal Sir Rustalot. And I'm not sure what sort of language should I use for her. Should I go for FFT WOTL style? Of should I make her just imformal, but using modern language.

Maybe you could try finding a script (or something of the like) for the game, read through her parts and take note as to how she speaks/moves, what kind of language she uses, etc. If you can't find anything written, you can always look for FMVs and watch those, which, I think, might be easier as it would be playing out in front of you.

Hey I've posted a piece of writing as I do heaps in my spare time.
Its called Learning the Trades, the prologue explains the basics. I would like if you read it and I don't mind comments as I don't get many on my writing normally.

Sure, Hunter. I'll take a look at it myself.

Hey there people! Because my laptop is currently in the shop and has no set date for being fixed yet, I decided to write a new story called Lamia Of Fortuna (10 Bonus points if anyone can figure out what that means  ) I am also making ideas for the next DoD but until my laptop is finished I cant finish the current DoD :(

I got to ask this what if you get stuck on a word while you are trying to write your sentence.

You could probably ask here, or you could look it up with dictionary.com. Sometimes, when it seems hopeless I'll completely reword the sentence, or even paragraph.

I'm looking for some assistance.
I wrote some character prose, though they are very breif (less than a page, mostly) and I'm not sure if they are even considered "Fan Fiction." I really enjoyed writing them and would like to write more... however, I'm too scared to post them.
Does anyone have any advice on posting this sort of thing?

Well, if you expect the worst, then you're guranteed not to be let down. =P
If you're just worried about letting everyone see them, then you could send them in an email to me or something, if you don't mind, and I'd be fine with giving an honest answer, or a sheltered one. Realistically, the worst that could happen should you post them up ehre anyway is constructive criticism, or lack of attention; which is what these forums suffer from the most. If you get any response (which you would, 'cause I'm willing to give it a look) then I'd say that you're doing better off than others already.

Awesome, thank you! I'll PM one of them to you. I've got an affiliation for darker stuff, so I apologize if you aren’t into that sort of thing. A warning, the one I'm sending has small amount of gore.
I'm looking for an honest review-- since I feel that critique is necessary for development. I've got several of these and if you enjoy this one, I'd be happy to send you more.
I don't know what I'm worried about, really. Just nervous I guess. |
