* (!) Me-Share - Diamond Version Writing Sample [Just Keep Scrolling]  >.<

    This post is going to be short and sweet... I think.  It's eight forty-eight pm and I've worked today and went for a walk after work, so I'm tired.

    But, I promised to do this every day and I am still feeling productive - from having done this six days straight - so there you go.  Yay!  Silver Star or Gold Star... or Purple or Pink or Neon Green- I really love colors and I can't decide which one I want more.  Anywho...  Video [Below ;D ]

Video 1

EXO Chanyeol - who gonna love you like me [FMV]

    I don't usually listen to music with a depressing theme, but... something about the version of this song, and the video hits the spot.

    At least right now.  Ask me in a day or to and I may not be able to stand it.  Down stuff usually makes me feel more down.

    Depression - you gotta love it.

    Did you hear that laugh in the back ground?  Ya know... the one where depression has to be loved... ugh...

    Don't forget, I said the video hits the spot.

    And I'm in a good mood, so right now I'm not depressed at all.  I'm in a really good mood.  And this video has inspired a story in my head.  I thought about writing a small One-Shot to show you.  Should I?

Writing Tip(z) - Lol:

    For this one I gave someone DIBS on the tip, because they left me a Comment asking for help (and they ended up with DIBS for this one and the next one - You Know Who You Are - Lol.)

For this one, it's going to be about World Building.

But what specifically?

    Hm...

    I'm going to add what I think is the most important and efficient thing in the process.  And if you still have more questions after reading, leave a Comment (ask for specific help, and you may end up with DIBS for Posts to Come ;)

    Let's see...

I think the most important thing - in the beginning of the process is to ask yourself what kind of world you want to have.

    Are you writing something like Lord Of The Rings (Not the four hour long movie with elves and an adventure that didn't end, but started over with BilBo's -How he got to where Froto was and how all that happened... My brain hurts-.)

    No...?  Um...?-

-1)  Do you want your world to be as vivid with it's plants or technology? 

2)  Do you want a modern world or futuristic world- that flows seamlessly in with the Plot?

Because these two things are different and require different ways of writing them.  But neither lack in details.  They just need the right ones to define your chosen genre.

    Sometimes, it's less about World, but it's always about Plot - Keeping the story moving - Every thing having a purpose.  Allow me to explain with examples.

Example(s):

1)  Do you want your world to be as vivid with it plants or technology?

    Is the story just as much about the World as the Plot?

Usually, this is considered a Fantasy Novel.

    Like Lord Of The Rings stories - magic, elves, dragons, etc....

    If you've read stuff like this or watched movies like this - or the movie I keep naming - you'll know exactly what I mean.  The landscape is rich with detail.  It's like it has a life of it's own-

    -If you've watched Clerks II, you'll recognize this:  Even the F---ing trees walked in that movie.

    Hahaha.

    The landscape literally came to life.

    -That's how rich in detail it was.

    Ok, I've made that point.

Writing Sample:  She looked beyond the boulder, the kingdom dome rang with golden sunlight.  The land smelled crisp from fresh rain, which she had a collection of, having left a bottle out.  Smiling, she closed the lid and the prized white stallion that had brought her there.

...Something like that.

    Every thing from the kindom, it's land, the sun, the horse - it's all highlighted.  Bold for your adourning read... or some such..ness... haha.

(!) Me-Share:  (I have a Diamond Version Writing Sample below this next part - I do it my way - Whoo!).

    In closing for Example 1 - I have to say this:  I don't think that just a Fantasy Novels or Movies have to be rich in detail like this.  Have you ever seen a movie or read a book, and the characters didn't fit a fantasy novel at all?

    But the landscape was rich with something that made it all clash, but it gave you goosebumps, because it worked so well together?

    Have you ever watched Sin City?  I know that was Comic Based (designed for everything to work a certain way - look a certain way - comicky), but it's something like that.

    There's also Lovely Bones:  A normal girl murdered, refusing to go in to heaven, because she doesn't want to leave her loved ones with the heartbreak of her tragic death.  She plays in endless flower feilds and runs through streets as a ghost and possesses a body.  And sees a giant replica of a boat her dad put in a glass bottle.  Basically, a regular girl in surreal settings.

    I believe in writing things MY way.  And the audience will come.  They'll find you, and thank you for giving them what they never knew they always wanted.  ;)

    You know how it feels when you discover a diamond in the rough (that unique thing, what ever it may be?)  I want to give that to others, by being myself. 

What about you?

(!)  Me-Share - Writing Sample (Diamond Version):  Mars wiped sweat from his brow and sighed.  The kingdom had remained as hot as he remembered.  Thankfully, they were just passing through.  He looked behind him and blinked rapidly.  Sudzy, who only reached his knees had tried to climb over some rocks.

    Currently, she struggled on her front with short legs kicking.  She'd become stuck, because of height.  He shouldn't ask.  He sighed.  He couldn't not.  What kind of man would that make him?

    "Do you need any help?"

    She growled.  Impressively, drowning the treble that she spoke in.  Fairy-like and just as deadly.  "What-"  There, it returned.  "I should kill you.  How dare you ask me such a question.  Go die."

    He said, "If you just-"

    "Go die."  It echoed and sighing, he looked away.  Typical - stubbory.

    "Brat."

    She screeched.  "I heard that."

    He bared his teeth at her.  "I meant for you to."

    "Why you-"

    This continued for quit some time.

    Eventually, they made it to the town on the other side of the hill, in time for refresher dinner - freshly picked peas cooked with ham hocks.

2)  I had planned to add a different example, but the Diamond Version Writing Sample hit it right on the head.  The landscape blended in seamlessly with the ever moving forward Plot.  You can tell it's a journey.  You don't much about who they are, how they met... but you know their dynamic, how they work together during travel, and how the land is difficult to navigate... especially if your like two to three feet tall, as apposed to six footish...?

Until Next Time,

PS:  Did this help at all?  Any more questions?  Leave a Comment and let me know specifics (and possibly get DIBS on future posts).

* Don't forget to take the Poll-

-Should I write/then post the One-Shot inspired by the Chanyeol Video?  Y/N  [Below]

    Any encouragement helps me continue, and the more I get the more I can do - for you.  Think about it.  ;)

Bonus Video Because...?

    Because I'm still working on the Yixing One-Shot, and posting a video with a song that's keeping me inspired - and moving to the music, so that I can finish it... well, something something..

    ...there you go.

    Forget the y dancing if you will...

    I really like the music to.  I walk listening to this.  I write listening to this.

    It's upbeat, and there's Yixing.

    I stay theme oriented when I'm working on something.

    It keeps me right there in that mind set, in that place that inspired the idea to begin with.

    No one has a one-track mind like a bipolar writer - I think...
