    So...I'm sorry!

    I'm alive! I swear!

    Man this year has been killer. I work an essential job so I haven't had much free time. But never fear I am getting back into the groove of things!

    After I finish all my damn art backlog anyway.

    For updates and peeks at the art I make and a general idea of what I'm up to check out my Kofi.

    A New Year!

    Hey you people who actually read these, its been a long time coming. From Scales and Carapases up to the current chapters of Cheer Up Spike, I have gotten lots of readers and so much support I can't believe it.

    Thank you all so much for all your support and I'll try and keep going until my fingers fall off or I run out of stories.

    All I Can Do Is Apologize

    So, this probably doesn't come as a surprise for the people who even care.

    But Scales and Carapases has been officially but non-officially canceled. What do I mean by this?

    Well, my writing style has changed a lot from when I first wrote it. I want to take a proper crack at the story.

Help! · 5:48pm May 20th, 2015

I need some assistance on starting chapter 11. How would you start a chapter where the entire thing is a flashback?

Comments ( 6 )

Give the flashback a reason. Build it up.
Why does he\she remember it at the moment or telling it to someone?
It is importen to give a proper reason for it.

3083547 I have an idea of how to do it I'm just hoping it comes off the way I want it to

I think, you should just do the flashback without any explanation and when that's done, continue as, why he/she remembered back.
Or start with the flashback and explain it as the tale continues. Part by part.

3083602 oldly enough thats the plan

Flashbacks that long can't be justified by "I fazed out". If someone is retelling a story and flashes back to the story then just have a point where it says "It all started in a yada yada... and then ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ flashback start. and have the flashback in italics and then ~~~~~~~ continue".

Doing it in something like italics would help as well, makes it feel more separate from reality.
