How new to Gaia are you?
  A few days, I am proud to say!
  I've been on Gaia for several weeks.
  I've been on here for several months.
  I've been on here for about a year.
  Years, my dear. I'm probably older than your account is.
  I don't feel like telling! Humph!

I believe it was actually in italics when I posted, I just quickly C&P'd my actual post though. Thanks for the tips biggrin

I want to improve my ability to add in those little unnecessary yet delicious details that draw the reader in. That and I want to be more quit witted... I've never done this before so I'm afraid I may not know what to say at times sweatdrop

Hmm... Maybe something like this.

Zique drew out his sword and slashed at his opponent. He then spun swiftly behind him and slashed behind him.

Okay, that's crappy. But something like that. When I attack I always use the word "slash". I know there are other words like cut, wound, injure or something but somehow I always end up using SLASH. Maybe I just got used to it or something.


I find that when this happens to me and I repeat the same word over, I use an online thesaurus to help me out and give me a new perspective.

So you want t learn how to put more detail into your writing. Do you mean like, writing out how your character does something, or adding more fluff?

I guess a little bit of both. Unfortunately, I won't know exactly how I perform until I do it. I'm not even sure where to start neutral

Would you like to join me in a 1x1 RP? Through that I can do my best to help you figure out what you want to improve at and how you want to do it.

You know, I guess we can do it in the forums. That way, maybe other members will see it and learn something or get the courage to try.

Yeah, I was playing ZOMG! yesterday for quite a while...

Blah, I need help lengthening and making my writing more interesting. I can write well, but when it comes to RP's I get so nervous about the other person I can muster so little. > w <
Also detail.

I'd like to learn how to add in more detail into my posts, so then I'll be able to write more. The most I can do right now is about three paragraphs, but I'd like to know how to write more, but with more detail, whether it be unneccassary or neccessary detail :3

So basically, I'd like help to make more detail, and help to be able to write more :'D
