What would you say are the trademarks of my writing? What themes or quirks or turns of phrase have you noticed? What is it that makes a story by me -- well, a story by me?


AND

Certain characters of mine have been dosed with a potion that makes them tell only the truth.. Ask them any question that you want, and he or she will answer truthfully!




EDIT (because I didn't want to make a whole new post): THIS distresses me. Because, well, NICOOOOO! THAT IS NOT POE!

NICO IS UNDER A SPELL THAT'S ALL.

Writing trademarks? You tend to write things out the way your character is thinking them. Hesitating or running on or sort-of-but-not-really denying.


Questions:

Johann: Do you love Hoffmann?
Daphne: Why are you attracted to Nico and how greatly?

I HOPE SO BECAUSE IT'S VERY DISTRESSING.

Johann: Yes. In a way, I do. It's not the makes-you-giggle-everytime-you-see-them or makes-you-smile-like-an-idiot type, though. It's just love. It's there. It constricts my lungs in music class when he's teaching. It's an ache in my chest when I think about how stupid I've acted recently. Maybe it's not love. Maybe it's something else. It's hard to tell.

Daphne: Why am I attracted to him? Mon petit, have you seen him? But besides that, there is also, je sais pas, a certain quality about him. He's strong and stable and always willing to help, it seems. I suppose it is just a crush. I do not think I would ever act on it. He seems happy with Poe, I would not dare ruin that.

You always let us know what your character is thinking. It really gives a lot of insight.


i will be back later with questions~

You always add a distinct humor to your character, usually through their thoughts.


Wendy: Stuck in a field of flowers during allergy season or detention with Hemingway?

I agree with Micha. Your prose mimics your character's thought process. It's amusing.

Wendy: Why on earth do you hate Hemingway so much? What did he ever do to you? :(

Juliet: Why are you so freaked out by the prospect of Mark and Tyler living together?

Wendy: I don't hate him. He just thinks I do. I just like to mess with his head. Whatever, he gives good reactions.

Juliet: I'm not freaked out! It's just like, I don't know. Tyler isn't that type of guy, you know? And now he is and like, I don't want to see him get hurt. Or like, see him hurt someone or like. I don't know. He's changing and I just, didn't see it.
