    Creating Compelling Characters

    Creating a ‘good’ character is an evergreen topic in many groups on this site, so I thought it might be worth a shot to dedicate another miniguide to it. Here I’ll focus primarily on some aspects of a character’s role in a story and the ways in which these aspects affect character creation. The guide might be also a bit messier than usual as putting together these various tidbits of advice would

    Handling Points of View with Grace

    I’m pretty sure that all of you have read more than one story in your life, and I’d bet that most of you noticed that stories can be told from a variety of perspectives. If you prefer a somewhat fancier term, such a perspective can be also called a point of view (POV for short). Types of POVs, their usage, and common pitfalls are what’s this miniguide going to be about. Just like in case of the

    Story Titles, Cover Art, and Descriptions 101

    Imagine this: You wrote a story that you deem great. You may have even shown it to a few folks for beta-reading and might have it edited, so the fact the story ain’t bad is most likely not just your subjective perception. Then you publish the story. Nothing happens. No comments, a modicum of votes, and a few views. Maybe it’s just bad luck. Or maybe the story’s boring and fails to maintain the

Leeches are the best pets... · 6:39pm Sep 11th, 2019

...they can’t really live without you.

And they also like my camera a little too much. A few nice specimens of Hirudo verbana I have brought with myself from Hungary :twilightsmile:

Just a short little blog post to let you all know that I’m not dead and still working on a few projects—the latest chapter of The Forest Pony, the long awaited sequel to Natura, and also a brand new one-shot starring Daring Do and Tempest Shadow (should be the first story with such a combination of characters on the site :yay:).

Ever, shut up and take my up vote already. :pinkiegasp: I like the way you do character match ups, never would have thought of this and that makes me want to read it even more. :pinkiecrazy: You can keep those leeches away from me though. :pinkiesick:

Yay! :pinkiehappy:

They are actually quite friendly and don’t bite... at least not that often :rainbowwild:

He does look like one happy leech :rainbowwild:

Let’s just hope he doesn’t get stuck in the camera hole...

At least I think it’s a he.

Awww 'its a little cuty' with a fable for the camera, a real model:twilightsmile:

5119678
I call it a she, but actually it’s both. They are hermaphrodites.

5119680
I think that a real model should stand still. These definitely don’t fit the bill :rainbowlaugh:

5119689
It was just not ready when you came with the camera, how rude of you! The little one needs its make up first.:raritywink:

Question: how do you feed them?

5119855
Right now I’m letting them feed on myself, though I can’t say I’m happy about that. I’m afraid they might not react well to the meds I’m taking. However, they are usually fed just once in a year or two, so I hopefully have some time to find a solution.

Note to myself: Ever has poisones blood... maybe:pinkiecrazy:

5119982
:rainbowlaugh:

But I thought Ever would look more like this while preparing her meds.

Why are you both thinking I’m trying to poison myself? :rainbowlaugh:

Technically speaking, I am, but...

5120391
Because we know you for years...?:scootangel:

5120391

they might not react well to the meds I’m taking.

I was going off the assumption this meant your blood was poisonous to the leeches, not you trying to poison yourself. Or, you know, your leeches could just look like they guys 25 seconds in. Really freaking chill. :derpytongue2:

5120443
I meant it so, originally anyway :pinkiesmile:
