HI Y'ALL! PB here!
Aside from the comeback of Should've Said No!, which is now OUT! [check it out on my profile, my royalties], I have decided to make another series, it's called "Dear Diary" where your OCs are a part of Camp Half-Blood and is requested to write in a journal for the Camp's Scribe's information in what you demigods to nowadays at camp.
This is not technically a series, but more of a drabble? A series of one-shots? IDK, you chose. Anyway, I'm thinking of having your OCs be the lead [occasionally, I could insert in one of mines].
Something like your typical SYOC.
Now, getting excited already?
Hold your horses dear, I'm still gonna rant. Kidding. But srsly, I'm here to share the RULES first.
RULES: (READ OR DIE, haha, JK)
-Never submit the OC's form in the review. I won't be entertaining the OC forms submitted in the reviews section but "reviews, critiques and stuff" like that are gladly accepted.
-Be creative. Never copy another person's OC. I want your own so you get to enjoy the chapter I could dedicate to him or her.
-NO children of the big Three. Not unless the background story is obviously original and not-"cliche". *cough* not like *cough* Sammi S.-J.*cough* [SORRY AIIA! Love you mother.]
-I want a challenging character to work with. Not just, she's problematic and emo and blah blah blah but Percy likes her and she likes him back and she get lai- well, JUST MAKE IT ALL ORIGINAL AND ENJOYING.
-Do your best to be descriptive. I seriously don't like seeing forms like these:
Name: Audrey Giovanni
Age: you chose
godly Parent: Zeus
Background: she came home from school then saw her mom killed then realized she's in danger then saw a monster and went to camp.
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME, BRO? I do the wheel of fortune then you rage at me for not getting the character right? HELLOOOO, ARE YOU LOCO?
OKAY. X)
I'll stop now, if there are any questions, ask me. For the forms, you can PM me directly if you want to just "copy-paste it" then fill it.
BUT JUST SO YOU ALL KNOW: (THIS IS THE FORM)
Name: [First and Last, if there's a middle name - please specify]
Age:
Gender:
Godly Parent:
Mortal Parent: [deceased or alive?]
Appearance:
Personality: [be really descriptive]
Background Story/History:
Likes:
Dislikes:
Fears:
Main theme you want for the whole chapter: [Love? Friendship? Family? or just plain crack?]
How do you want the chapter to go on? [site examples on what characters may do in the chapter or create your own plot by telling me the consecutive events happening.]
Things you want me to add in the chapter? [Like crushes and love interests. OC x OC may happen.]
I like to think of this as a practice for all those budding writers out there. You create your characters and write the draft[which is the part where you dictate me on what can possibly happen on that particular chapter]. Who knows? You may be the one who can adopt the chapters' stories into a real life "STORY"
But. THERE'S A BIG BUT.
I won't be promising to write stories about all of your characters a nd I'll be doing this with my spare time so the chapter updates won't be continuous since I'm such a busy little bee, but I will try to do my best to update one or two chapters per week.
Thank you for those who will submit OCs, I will really appreciate it.
