The Tower

The tower

It started with a war in a far away place. And Dib had always been a sensible kid, deep down.

Not even an intergalactic war, just a regular human war for something like territory, or perhaps oil. It was about gunpowder and grenades, about mild explosions and unknown people with names of different pronunciation. But not like Schwarzenegger, no. 

Dib had never paid attention to such things. Hours upon hours of spying on his old nemesis, Zim had never noticed that the human could get entranced in those types of news when he stumbled across them in between Mysterious Mysteries commercials, or in the radio when he was tinkering with his inventions.

writers:

break up your paragraphs. big paragraphs are scary, your readers will get scared

fuuuuck epithets. “the other man got up” “the taller woman sat down” “the blonde walked away” nahhh. call them by their names or rework the sentence. you can do so much better than this (exception: if the reader doesn’t know the character(s) you’re referring to yet, it’s a-okay to refer to them by an identifying trait)

blunette is not a thing

new speaker, new paragraph. please.

“said” is such a great word. use it. make sweet love to it. but don’t kill it

use “said” more than you use synonyms for it. that way the use of synonyms gets more exciting. getting a sudden description of how a character is saying something (screaming, mumbling, sighing) is more interesting that way.

if your summary says “I suck at summaries” or “story better than summary” you’re turning off the reader, my dude. your summary is supposed to be your hook. you gotta own it, just like you’re gonna own the story they’re about to read

follow long sentences w short ones and short ones w long ones. same goes for paragraphs

your writing is always better than you think it is. you just think it’s bad because the story’s always gonna be predicable to the one who’s writing it

i love u guys keep on trucking

1. None of my family is on here

Summary: Dib, a professional paranormal investigator, and his sister Gaz rescue an alien who crash-lands on Earth. Zim has no memory of who he is besides his name and the broken device attached to his spine may hold the answers to what caused the alien to crash in the first place. As Zim slowly discovers who he is and grows conflicted as he forms a relationship with Dib and Gaz, the Swollen Eyeball Network sets their eyes on taking Zim away by force. A broken family find a way to be whole again, and that includes an alien.
