I come here because I genuinely love to write. I love RPing and getting into characters as well, very often, despite the dissimilarities, my characters are directly inspired by a piece of myself (Theo and the npc character Rielly are highly idealized versions of myself). I like how the RP restricts your story too, you have to work up, you have to earn all the respect your character has in this world. Writing in this restricted way also forces me to create new and interesting plot ideas (The recent thread with Bakar was an example of this, I knew I wanted Theo to not like Nuits, but after actually writing it was no longer this inexplicable racism, instead it made a ton of sense for his past.).
I used to thread on a site a long time ago, Gundam Vagrant Destiny, and that site was in a constant state of turmoil. I love the stability Mizahar offers me as a writer, and that I can leave a week or two to settle some personal affairs and still have a community to come back to. It really was an awful thing to come back within a month to the site and see that they system you were writing in was getting scrapped for another, highly similar style.
Also, you guys are awesome! Maybe a little too nice for my taste at times hahah, but seriously, I dont know where these PSA about assholes in chat is about, I've had nothing but support and I can be kind of an asshole at times. You guys really do try to write good, meaningful RPs, we aren't telling the same old tales again and again. It's a pleasure to have you as peers!
Finally, I want to work on my writing. If anyone ever has any advice, wants to pass a comment my way, show love, or really focus on some intense plotting send me a message. I think you can tell by my solos (which I have more of in the works) that I really strive to write a good story. Even though I'm terrible, as this is my first major creative story-driven pursuit, I'd like to think my style improves everytime I sit down to write here, whether it be with one of you guys or by myself. Fyi, I was writing on Gvd at fourteen, writing poetry/lyrics at fifteen, and rapping at sixteen (you can lol, im actually pretty confident about this). Point being, this is a great site to write for any purpose! I love what the founders have given us and want all you staff to know that your jobs are vital to the existence of this site, you guys make this site what it is and help it continue to be a fun place to be!
