Alice in Wonderland based/sequel where the main character, Robin, is dragged to Wonderland and meets Jinx, a crazed jester/rebel who develops an obsession with her because she does not have a Wonderland version, meaning she is to be the next Queen. After escaping, she runs into Zach, a college student in Robin’s brother’s grade that is studying theoretical physics and is the only one who believes her about Wonderland. From there, Robin is brought back to Wonderland every night where she spends the night evading Jinx and meets the alternate versions of people she knows, as well as meeting and befriending the Queen of Hearts, who helps her evade Jinx. Robin and Zach spend the day trying to figure out how to prevent Wonderland from coming to their world, as Wonderland slowly bleeds into their world.

Obviously have motivation problems with my 23 wips and hundred of abandoned ones, so how do you stay motivated to keep writing? I've heard about doing things scene by scene, so I'm trying that right now, but how do you stay motivated? And how do you fill out and entire book, I feel like I never have enough ideas/content to finish anything.

There wasn't anyone following her, but she wouldn't know that.

So I've been struggling with finding a font that looks good and is the right size for a while, right now I'm at Times New Roman 15 but it feels too small.

Wondering where everyone stands on AI use and to what extent. Mostly because I see a lot of teens using AI for essays and such, and wondering if that extends to creative writing.

But Mother had said that my sister needed my eyes more than I did, and she was the youngest, after all.

I posted a while ago that getting a new phone and not being able to download gacha club, and a bunch of people suggested gacha nebula and other modded versions.

​

I was just wondering what sites to use that won't give my phone a virus, and also which mods are best, I only know of Gacha Nebula and Gacha Nox right now.

It wasn't until I saw the frame of a young boy emerge from the attic that I realized she had been wrong.

Chapter 2: School

Ashley already wasn’t a fan of school. She hadn’t been for a while, because it was just another thing that kept her and Andrew apart. But now it was even more annoying because it meant that she would have to spend seven hours every day with hussies instead of spending it with her brother.

The only good part was that Arella would also be attending the same school, which was still more neutral news than good. Ashley had known Arella for two years, and she wasn’t sure about her.

On one hand, she’d gotten in way less trouble since befriending Arella. The old hag that lived in their building never bothered them whenever she saw that Arella was with them, because Arella was the girl everyone liked.

She’d also had someone to play with when Andrew was gone, but Ashley only liked Arella when Andrew wasn’t an option. Arella was too close to Andrew. But Ashley couldn’t kick Arella out of their group because Andrew liked her.

Ashley stood outside the school building with Andrew and Arella. She already hated everyone here, except Andrew. Other kids her age were arriving with their parents. The fucking hussies couldn’t be on their own for ten minutes. Their parents had to walk them to school.

“You two should know which classroom you’re in.” Andrew said. Ashley did, and it was the same class as Arella. She wasn’t sure whether that was a good or bad thing. Ashley hated Arella when Andrew was involved, but she didn’t know what to think of her when he wasn’t there.

“Yep! Mrs. Kent!” Arella said much too enthusiastically. That was the thing Ashley hated about Arella. She adapted her personality to those around her. She was a people pleaser, but instead of just wanting to make people happy, she wanted them to like her so she could use them later.

But Arella was the type of person that only liked you if you were useful to her, and Ashley didn’t know what she thought Andrew was useful for. He was useful to her because he would do anything to keep her happy, but she wasn’t sure what Arella’s goal was. She did anything to keep him happy, always taking his side and agreeing with him.

“Okay, I’m in Mr. Scone’s room. But you shouldn’t come find me unless it’s an absolute emergency. The teachers are supposed to call Mom first if anything bad happens.” Andrew said.

As if Renée would do anything. She would probably ask the teachers why they called her, say that she was busy, and hang up before they could even explain anything to her. That was what Renée was like as a parent. If someone wasn’t actively dying, then you had to deal with it yourself.

Andrew led the girls into the building and to their class room. He was supposed to make sure that Ashley didn’t get lost because Renée hadn’t bothered to come if she really was concerned about Ashley getting lost.

Their teacher stood at the door, a young woman with shoulder length honey blonde hair and warm brown eyes. She was a first time teacher at their school, which meant that you never knew how much you would hate her. But Mrs. Kent seemed okay.

“Hello! I’m Mrs. Kent, I’ll be your kindergarten teacher.” She greeted before crouching down to be at Arella’s height.

“What is your name?” Mrs. Kent asked. That was always a good sign with adults. If they were willing to meet you at your level, they were usually okay. Or condescending. Either one.

“Ella.” Arella said. Ares was Arella’s preferred name, but she rarely went by it outside of their group. She was Ella outside of their trio, the girl that got along with everyone and was kind and optimistic. Ashley was starting to despise Arella’s facade, it made her look so much worse in comparison. “My real name is Arella Nacht, but I like Ella better.” 

Mrs. Kent nodded. “That’s such a pretty name.”

Andrew turned to leave. Ashley and Arella were at their class room, now they were Mrs. Kent’s problem. “Bye, Ares. I’ll pick you up after school, Leyley.” He called over his shoulder as he left to go to his classroom.

Mrs. Kent frowned. “Ares and Leyley?”

“Ares is a different nickname I go by. But just among my friends.” Arella explained.

Mrs. Kent nodded. “Ella, why don’t you go play with the other kids? I need to speak to your friend.” Arella nodded and left.

Mrs. Kent turned to Ashley. “Leyley? What’s your real name?” She asked

“Ashley Graves.”

“Then why don’t you pick a nickname closer to your actual name, like Ash, or Lei. Or even Shay or Leya.” Mrs. Kent suggested.

“What’s wrong with Leyley?” Ashley asked. She hated Mrs. Kent more and more every second she spent talking to her. What was wrong with her nickname? She liked it, that was all that mattered.

“It’s just so…childish. You’re in kindergarten now, don’t you want to have a grown-up nickname like all your other classmates? And nobody will ever think that your name is Ashley if you go by that all the time.” Mrs. Kent said.

So Mrs. Kent’s problem with her name was that it was too childish. That was counter productive. Mrs. Kent expected her to have a grown-up nickname, but she was still going to treat her like a little kid. And she was five, what did it matter if she went by Leyley or Ashley or Leya? Renée didn’t care about her nickname, why should her teacher have a problem with it?

“You don’t have to call me it if you don’t like it.” Ashley said. She didn’t intend to change her nickname at all. Most people didn’t use her nickname anyway, only really Andrew and Arella.

“Well, you’re growing up now and should stop using childish nicknames. Even if only a few people use it, you should stop going by it because it’s childish.” Mrs. Kent said. “You’re not a little kid anymore, so you should act like it.”

Mrs. Kent had a very warped idea of when you weren’t a little kid anymore. Just because Ashley was in school now didn’t mean that she was an adult and should start acting like it. This was why Ashley didn’t like adults. They were stupid and their logic was always flawed.

But, she agreed to stop going by the nickname because Ashley had learned that there was no use in arguing with adults. Once they had decided on one thing, it was impossible to change their minds.

Ashley had no intention to change her nickname. She would just have to avoid using it at school.

Ashley entered the classroom. Arella was sitting with Nina and Julia. She hadn’t seen them much since their playdate several years ago, but apparently Arella was friends with them.

Of course Arella was friends with them. Everyone liked Arella. She was nice and funny and got along with everyone. Nobody liked her though. Everyone thought she was annoying. Even Andrew liked Arella better than Ashley.

That was why Ashley didn’t like Arella. Maybe she would like her better if Andrew liked her less, but Arella got all of Andrew’s attention. Spending time with Ashley was a chore for Andrew. Spending time with Arella was fun for him.

Ashley went to join Arella, Nina, and Julia. As much as she hated Arella, playing with her was better than being alone.

No necessarily writing, but mine is when someone makes an adaption of a book and they completely changed the characters. I'm okay with small changes, like a small part of the personality or making the character look slightly different, but it annoys me to no end when they completely change the sexuality, gender, ethnicity, or personality entirely to make it more 'relatable' or 'child appropriate'.

I wrote this character this way for a reason and I already try to represent everyone in every book, if this character is explicitly Irish you don't get to make them Norwegian because you think that would be more relatable, and you don't get to make my pansexual or bi or gay/lesbian characters straight because you don't want kids to be exposed to that, as well as changing my trans/nonbinary/other characters cis.

I'm revamping my AU bc I don't like it rn and don't have a specific Mrs. Afton (all Afton kids have a different mother) so can people please explain their AUs and lore so I can get some inspo?
