Alright. I developed a new pet peeve while reading the Caraval series. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve enjoyed the series overall. 
          	
          	However. 
          	
          	I can’t stand how many times the author says :
          	
          	-She smelled like mystery and magic. 
          	-He smelled like dark secrets and cob webs. 
          	-His scent was that of broken hearts and crushed dreams. 
          	-The air tasted like shadows and anticipation 
          	-the drink tasted of forbidden promises and deception. 
          	
          	Like what does that even mean?? 
          	
          	I have no clue what a crushed dream smells like and that doesn’t help me understand in any way shape or form. I think the author was trying to evoke a sense of magic, but overdid it way too much. 
          	
          	As a result all her characters smell like abstract concepts. 
          	
          	So yeah. That’s my rant. Anyway, she is a great author and good job to her for making this interesting series. That’s just my new little pet peeve.

Lately I’ve been very into “The Backrooms” and all the levels and entities within those levels. Such a fun concept and very inspiring when it comes to writing. I’m really excited for the new video game Subliminal to come out, it looks like the perfect Backrooms game. Already thinking of ways I can put backroom themes on future writing

@_schnidde_ it is an original story , currently sitting at 37k words, with goal of 85k. I wouldn’t do a full on Backrooms book, but I like to add elements of being in an abandoned place where things used to exist.

Hihihi @Nope_NotMe!! By the time I wrote this, I have at least reread your take on a Felinette fanfic, 4 times. As well as the Not you au. My Boss is Felix is a work of art, I refuse to believe that something can be this well written. When I first got the chance to read it, my heart was rooted out for this ship. I absolutely thank you really so much for creating such a unique miraculous au. The plot spectacular, even the twists added into it. Everything fit in placed perfectly. The way you described Marinette and Felix, I have no words for it due to how of an amazing standard you set. It was descriptive, as well not to mention how gradual and progressive their perception of each other was. I know it was a slow burn, a very slow one, and this trope became my favorite because of the masterpiece you made. After reading your two miraculous fanfics, I was sure I had a favorite writer. I hope for more people to see this wonderful inspiring creation and lastly, it would be really astonishing to see your take again on another miraculous fanfic !!

Hello, long time no see! 
          
          As some may heard, Wattpad will be taking away DMs on May 6th (about two weeks). 
          
          DMs allowed me make friendships that are deeper than some in real life. Without DMs, we no longer have a way of connecting with friends privately unless we give them our real information. Furthermore, they are taking away an amazing experience that future readers won't have.
          
          I got this link from a friend and I want to fully support this cause that is against Wattpad removing it.

I have a question. Would you be interested in writing a new book (after the one you just released)? Like the new book wouldn't be a fanfiction but a story with your made up characters and plot? That would be really nice! If not, it is also okay of course! I just think you have the talent, you know xD

_schnidde_

Yeah, I know what you mean. I am also writing a story with my own plot and characters and it's a bit harder but it is so much fun because the ressources are kind of unlimited. I am looking forward to it!! Definitely gonna read it!!

Hi! Yea I’ve been developing a plot and would like to create an original story! Creating an original story is so much harder than fanfic I’m realizing but it’s still fun. Thanks so much!

“But Ruth replied, “Don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May God deal with me, be it ever so severely, if even death separates you and me.” Ruth 1:16-17
          
          This has been floating about in my head as of late. A very moving declaration.
