I would like to apologize for my lack of updates. I’ve been playing Helldivers a lot. The games very fun and addictive, but I have been making small progress here and there on my stories.

Yo dude so I've been planning my story a bit but I gotta ask, I've been thinking of an idea for a prologue to give the readers a bit of backstory, but at the same time maybe it would be better to just jump right in and let the readers try and peice everything together...I really can't decide, what do you think?

Sane-Person

I’d say let the readers try and piece everything together. Because you can just make it up on the fly and don’t have to life dump it all in one chapter.

Ok so...I have decided to go back to my original idea of my first story being a translation of another author (witch I did credit) but I have a tiny problem...it won't let me add a cover...
          ...is this because I'm using a tablet or???

@OfficialPaleKing8008 Bud, I don’t know how to help you on that, sorry.

So...uh...a situation has occured...I ask them if I could translate their story...they didn't say no...all the did was reccommend me an English version on AO3 (witch I can't seem to find) and also by what you can already probably see...it seems I've already uploaded the beginning of my translated version...they never said I couldn't do it but I don't know if I'm still allowed to translate it or not...

I have credited them twice but just as an extra EXTRA precaution, I'm gonna so if they would allow me to translate their book.

OK, man, I gotta ask you: How the hell do you find the motivation to write your stories?
          I have been trying to force myself to write my story, and yet no matter how hard I push, I write like a sentence... and then immediately just ducking give up!
          How you do dis???

Sane-Person

I’m my opinion, you have to forced yourself initially to start writing, but once you get in the grove of it, it becomes easier. But if you want a motivation boost, drink coffee, that’s what I do. Also, it may become a struggle at first, but the more ideas you get on your story, the more you want to write. Don’t worry, all beginner writers struggle at the first steps, you be fine.
            
            But still, you want motivation? Just drink a cup of coffee. 
            
            Take it slow, and see the progress you’ve made as time passes.

Question: how old do you think Jack (from Order & Faith) is in the story? (If you had read it of course.)

Sane-Person

@OfficialPaleKing8008 Eh, he ain’t THAT old, I would say he left London as a child, about to become a teen. When he was in Winter home, I’d say young adults, but not in his 20’s. He’d probably be around his late 20’s when Winterhome fell, but acts like a depress 30 year old who works an office. So by my calculations, simply minus off ten years of your original guess and the answer would be 27, roughly. Maybe 29.

          The scream… yell… shout… and thrash around. I hear them like whispers behind my eyes, yet when I turn, no one’s there. This is my burden, to be mocked by the souls that have fallen, being from me, or someone else.
          
          Their rage fuels me, they keep me from dying, no matter what. This is a silent burden I carry.

I’ve been distracted for about two days. 
          
          Yesterday was my birthday and….
          
          
          
          I did not expect to get $95 on my PlayStation. So I bought some new games and I’ve been playing on them. BUT! It doesn’t mean I’ve stopped working my stories. I’ll still work on them, just gonna take a break on them.
