Opinions on reviving/writing from the POV of (likable) deceased characters?

  • Are you glad the character came back? Or just peeved they had to die for whatever reason?

  • Do you think there should be some type of punishment for having them revived?
    (Ex. The character doesn't remember who they used to be, They lose their emotions/senses after coming back to life, They become a zombie, etc.)

I'm a huge revive hater but I can tolerate it sometimes

usually my thoughts on the first one are why did they die if they're just going to come out alive again anyway? it feels sometimes like a cheap way to try and wrench at the heart-strings if you know what I mean

for the second, absolutely. there needs to be bad consequences or else it doesn't work, in my opinion.

I think it's fine, or even better if the actual being revived thing is what the story is about, or the inciting incident.

too all club members

i would like to invite anyone who'd be interested, on a project a call 'the pillow saga'.
it's complete creative freedom with the prompt 'pillow war'. you can do anything but the main idea was a collection of short stories, possibly in multiple universes or building off each others or whatever you can think of. no deadlines, no stress, no rules.

if anyone is interested please tell me, and if you have any questions i'd be happy to answer

@IcarusFightsTheSun book

Do you want those posted here or under your original prompt?

i think i may make another thread so it doesn't end up clogging a preexisting one

Hey Clementine, I’m prolly in too, idk when I can get it done but that sounds cool lol

np, there is no time frame btw, but i could also help arrange small deadlines for anyone who works better thaat way

Anyone got any tips on how to write a fight scene with a large cast? I'm trying to write a 6-on-1 fight and Im having a hard time juggling that many characters

This is probably less than helpful but I'd say keep one character in focus. When people are fighting, they tend to tune out everything that's around them to avoid death, so if there's one POV character that person wouldn't be as focused on everyone else.

^o^ thanks! this is my most recent story and I've put a lot into it, except for actually writing.
