"Pro" has the connotation of, you know...being pro.

I'm actually just incredibly bad at all art period.

I have accepted my lack of talent, and can laugh at it. Belieeeeeve me, I know I am terrible. And I am okay with that, I excel in other areas.

Now if I were to suck at writing, or air hockey, oh man especially the air hockey. Now that would destroy me.

First step:

1. Join the Grammar Nazis.
2. Live life and learn experiences to use to write.
3. Practice your imprompt to help stretch your imagination skills.
4. Learn how to write things in a interesting way by detailing smell, taste, sound, sighting, and so on. (Instead of saying "It reeks like garbage." Say: "The smell reeked of the love child of a rotten egg and a diaper, that said child has been spoiled by his loving parents and produces an odor so foul that it's stench makes the world itself cry.")
5. Caffeine and sugar is your best friend.
6. The after effects of caffeine and sugar is your worst enemy.
7. Never self insert. Ever. You can take pieces of yourself, but never self insert.
8. Never make a "perfect" character, it's uninteresting and no character is perfect. A good character is one with faults and struggles which makes for a good story.
9. Always enjoy yourself. Any force writing is never good, if your at a writers block just write one page a day and never look back.

Salone's tips:

1) Never take yourself seriously.

2) If you feel good about a piece, leave it be and come back tomorrow. Your opinion will change, you will hate it. Scrap it and try again. Repeat process until you hate it by the lowest amount.

3) Throw in jokes for yourself. Even better, throw in jokes for others.

4) There will always be someone better than you'll ever be. The trick is to never meet them.

5) If you do meet them, learn from them.

6) If you're going to be a Grammar Nazi, read your entire piece to make sure you didn't typo while claiming to be a Grammar Nazi.

7) Have a drink. Sometimes the thing telling you 'no' can drown.
7a) The drink does not have to be alcoholic

8) Writer's Block? What the crap is that? Just write, correct the thing you just wrote, keep writing.

9) If you want real opinions on your work, tell a friend you found 'this awful thing online by some dork, read this and tell me how awful it is.' It's going to hurt, but it puts a more critical bias instead of the friend trying to positively encourage you. If they like it, hey swell, you look kind of like an ass but your stuff is decent!

10) Don't listen to others' ways of writing. Results are not typical. Use them as guidelines and not blueprints. If they don't work for you, eff the system and try your own way.

21.) Don't take advice from anyone on the internet. Especially not me.

The only saves I make involve Fortitude, Reflex and Will.

Other than that, I like to live dangerously.

The "take things too seriously" sometimes gets me into the "writer's block"

(More like "research as much as I know how to, missing something insultingly obvious, and then try to not violate knowledge with my initial idea")

Sometimes I find that researching too much is a detriment. The average reader doesn't need to know the nuanced mechanics behind a lot of goings on in stories. A brief overview or scattered bits here and there help. But unless you're making a Powerpoint presentation for something, let's go with... "Wizard mechanics and the economic impact of limitless magic upon society" for some sort of boy wizard school, you can generally leave it at "Magic! It's cool, isn't it?" and that's that.

Slow it down, keep it short, keep to that one quote about making it simple enough for a six year old to understand it.

Besides, Hollywood has been doing everything the incorrect way for decades, and that hasn't stopped them.

I am now freaking adorable.

**cuddles Illu's adorable head**

I still don't quite know what chickens and squirrels have to do with anything.

But pangolins, come on, man.

One day, one day pangolins.

I wish to have a pangolin item. But I can wait. And until then, I can dream.

I find the little elephant the cutest, but I'd love to have a little whale like that as well. XD

Maybe we just need a tiny animal collection.

Hrm...

I did make that tiny elephant >3> it was pretty fun.

I'm more a fan of giant stuffed animals though. A giant teddy bear, giant elephant, giant giraffe, giant pangolin, just giant animals. xD

I agree with Obsidian, DO IT!!! XD Also, make a white tiger. owo I have a giant stuff white tiger in real life, too bad he's too big for my bed. XD

Make giant ridable Horses, Tigers, Dogs, oh and a magical giant Hamster with Hamster Armor on.

That sounds weird and cute at he same time. o.o

I'm 70% sure that's a guinea pig, but oh well.

Paaaangoliiiin.

And Toho, I want that guinea pig. Sir Applewood item, go!

I won't contribute, I'd just give it laser eye beams.
edit: Wait no.... CAAAAN IT HAVE LASER EYE BEAMS?

Survey says...

No laser eye beams!

But what does the magic 8 ball say?
*shakes*

Magic 8 Ball: Seems unlikely.

Darn it.

I love mine, it just doesn't go with my halloween avi xD

Honestly...I think that's the point. That they're supposed to clash horribly. It's kind of what makes it cute for me.

i meant it wasn't scary.. I have a halloween avatar so cute doesn't fit on it o3o,
