  • How do you process information best? Some writers have elaborate timelines of their character arcs drawn out on paper, while some have a spreadsheet of character info, and others just write what comes to mind and edit as they go.

    When I ask you what your favorite movie is, what do you consider to pare the list down? Is that answer influenced by me at all? If the answer to that is yes, do you actually have ideas but your brain won’t let you believe they are creative because you think others would react negatively?

    Maybe you should write a very short story and post it online for feedback as a first exploratory step. I think you can do it. If all else fails just sit down and start typing your comic book. Nobody has to see it.

    The insanity of believing someone cares which fruit you prefer is just accepted as the “normal” part of the meme here, and that’s pretty interesting to me as someone who didn’t have the internet in their home until high school.

    Then someone always proves them right! Now they have “haters”! It’s amazing. This internet thing could have been cool.


  • Yeah. I should clarify I wasn’t trying to say you’re doing a disservice with your post. This is kind of a model of what we could expect, and I like it.

    We are social animals. If I strongly believe something won’t happen and I share it with people who value my opinion, it spreads. People also don’t want to be on the wrong side of the mob.

    A perfect example of this is a site like this. If I was to get downvoted a lot, the chances anyone would come to my aid shrink exponentially. Even if I made a statement that all those people held as strong beliefs, the best I could hope for is to be left alone.

    People think we’re not connected, but I don’t exist if you aren’t here to not be me. I could go on but I’m losing the track I think.
