Just finished to install The Elder Scrolls Online last night and really enjoyed the game for now. Summerset has such a lovely ambiance, it makes me love high elves even more than before!

One thing I learned is that the game's mechanics are really just about numbers. I used to just do PVP and I would get wrecked before I decided I was just going to be a tank (Tank DK) for it. Even now, I'm still learning tanking for PVE, but I'm starting to get used to try and main other types of characters, such as my DPS templar. Although I have a feeling you might enjoy house making and the crafting aspect, it really helps get the creative flow going!

Indeed, I've already been up for it! To be honest, I'm actually saving as much money as I can in order to buy a decent house in the future, probably in Auridia. Having a cozy residence to decorate and embelish would be more than necessary for my toon who's currently living in an impersonal room inside of an inn in Alinor. Hopefully, this day will come! Also, since I'm playing as a shock sorceress, I mainly favoured storm calling and destruction staff skill lines, which made her a pure DPS. Obviously, without active skills such as Energy Overload and Power Surge, it would be harder to sustain long fights.

The forum of Reborn is such a source of inspiration and appeasement for my eyes that I decided to download and apply Google Dark Themes on my web browser. I have to say that it looks pretty good in the end

I don't know if eveyrthing goes mentally well for me these days. Last night, when I decided to keep my writings up, there was a moment when I just burst in tears since I was just in the middle of my work. That was just as if one simple breeze was enough to make you capsize

Yes, you're probably right! It's been several days since I'm cumulating more numerous projects to handle (Personal hobbies, creation of website project at university, etc...) and the last part of the chapter I was writing was particularly intense, to say the least. To be honest, I largely prefer to externalise it rather than keeping it for myself
-
It's fine, even I face certain moments every now and then where I worry too much. Taking some time off after an intense period of meeting deadlines and completing tasks has helped me rejuvenate myself. After couple of months of long hours of work, I felt drained; but recently I went out of station for a couple days and now I feel better. A periodic change of scenery is indispensable. Also, do not compromise on sleep. As Jack Ma said : What keeps Jack Ma awake at night? "Nothing! If I don't sleep well, the problem will still be there. If I sleep, I have a better chance to fight it." Hope this helps
-
Actually, it did! Long regular sleeps often leads to a happier life. I experienced it more than once when I was in Engineer School two years ago. Today, I try to find my balance, and feel more confident since I'm living at home again. However, exceptions may subsist, but it's still better than when I had to stay in Montpellier, far away from my family members. Also, when I feel I can't surpass myself more than I already do with professional tasks, I just recover quickly and/or ask my colleagues for some indications concerning the purpose to reach and how I can possibly get it done. Otherwise, I just have to take care not to run head down into happiness pit drains when I feel exhausted. Even if it's not always the case, being happy or unhappy can also be a matter of choice.

Yes! Yes! Yeeeees!!!
Despite the fact that I'm new to the universe of Pokemon Essentials, I tried to make some custom battles operational since last night. And guess what: it works like a charm
I have to admit that it's a very entertaining experience by the way

Hey everybody! How are you doing? For my part, everything is going well these days. But for some reason, I started to feel worry about one thing with Flannery's tale, and I wanted to argue about it: the length of the episodes. That might sound repetitive and trivial said like this but we all know that quantity won't suffice to ensure results of quality. My biggest fear until now was mainly to write boring filler chapters without even realizing it. Since I spent a lot of time to move the plot forward and go into details, I hoped it didn't feel like it to anyone. Also, the purpose of the next episode being principally to put ma boi Jacques in the spotlight and reveal a great part of his backstory, I was afraid of outshining Flannery since it's supposed to be her story and I felt it was my duty to warn you about what I thought of that. Meanwhile, I already had an accurate idea of how Flannery's arrival was going to happen, both emotionally and physically, but I really felt the need of evacuating my anxiety and being reassuring with you about the length which could be relatively intimidating sometimes. I promise you won't get disappointed with what's coming next, I have a good surprise in reserve this time. And if you manage to predict how it will happen, so it means you're very very smart!
Otherwise, take good care of yourselves and enjoy life

Symfony is really a wonderful framework for creating web applications. I would have never expected to go that far in web development in such a short period of time. All this to say that I really enjoy my field of study

This is here... this is there... my friends, the last OC of the tale is among us!
I sincerely think that I've never paid so much attention to facial traits during the creation of a character, ever. Being essentially a take-off on Morpheus from the Matrix movie series, Flannery will have to deal with a big shot when she'll be in Reborn. As the author, I'm completely excited myself just by seeing the story taking form before my eyes. So let's have a round of applause for Ramal Ettaoui, the coolest original character from the Tale Of a Firehead!
PS: Don't hesitate to follow me on my creation topic if you want to see more of my work!
-
The last OC of mine is about to see the light of day. Without exaggerating, esthetically speaking, he's definitely the most advanced of the three. He will be the very last one to appear in The Tale of a Firehead just like Jacques and Dounia, so get ready
-
And voila! The final episode of Flannery's Departure Arc is almost complete and ready for upload. Just like in the previous season with Mr. Moore, it will be the last episode where Flannery and Winona will be shown enjoying life together... at least, in Hoenn. Time for separations has come. And speaking of time, I took mine to fix some extra recurrent grammatical mistakes in the previous chapters all along, which is why this writing session was a bit longer than usual. Also, I would like to share with you this song which is probably one of the most representative of the Departure Arc ending. Because, yes. Sometimes, words are not needed to describe the emotion caused by a feel of loss.

Next episode will come soon...

I took some time to count the total number of pages of The Tale Of a Firehead on Word last night. With Episode 13 on the list, we’re exactly at 225 pages! This is massive, I would have never expected this story to take us that far!
-
That's what I thought too. But since I take my time to occasionally correct some grammatical mistakes when I see it, I don't want to do it once and for all. At least, not for the moment. It will certainly be more the case when the last chapter of the Departure Arc (N°13) will be out. We both have to preserve our hard work anyway

Good day everyone! I'm glad to announce that the progress concerning the storyline of The Tale Of a Firehead Episode 13 has finally reached 100%. It took me a while to structure my writings, but we're almost there now. I've been busy with numerous things like searching for an internship or polishing my knowledge about some web languages, so it was a bit tedious for me to find the good timing to pursue the story. But since writing is something I really like to do, it was crucial for me to continue, let alone the fact that it's the only way for me to practice English efficiently. By the way, I would have never expected how great my progress would be since I registered on this forum. I don't have any regrets about it, I would even say that it's among the best and most satisfying decisions I took in my life. Episode number 13 will be a great one, I hope you'll enjoy it at least as much as me when I wrote it :^)
See you next time, and don't forget. Stay tuned~

These days, I feel sun-starved. Short days, dark skies, cold temperatures are part of my daily routine, let alone boring repetitive news. Sometimes, I wish all this could stop just for a week. But life is life, and I'm certainly not the only one to think so.
-
According to my own experience, the hardest thing to do when you’re writing a story is definitely keeping control of your mind without losing yourself in daring details or trying something out of context. Am I the only one to think so?

I tend to agree with 2 myself. Being currently into a writing kind of project on my own, I often find myself not writing about it for a while, only deciding to write whenever an idea about it suddently pops that can advance the story, the characters or even the worldbuilding. Trying to force creation by imposing yourself to write can end up being actually not productive at all. But when I do have an idea, what follows after can come extremely naturally, and it's only after I eventually stop that I watch what I wrote and give appropriate modifications.
I don't know about others, but for me, this kind of "reflex" and "automatic" writing, and not thinking about what you write too much initially, suits me the best.
-
Wow! I just realized it’s gonna be one year since I started to write The Tale of a Firehead! Time is running way too fast!
-
I don’t know about you, but in my case, I’ve never been very effective under pressure.

As I promised, the spriteset as well as the identity of the mystery character have been revealed. Let's shut the suspense. I want you to meet Dounia Pastor, the second OC of my personal creation. Just like Jacques Besson, she will have a special role to play in The Tale of a Firehead
