Character design is what completes a character by representing them through a physical form. It’s important because it can make a character memorable and easy to recognize. So hopefully, I can tell you all the basics of a good character design.

I know, I promised myself I’d never write a review again, but barely anyone has talked about this, which needs to change.
Okay, so why does Disney always start a few projects, but when one of them gets popular, they immediately drop everything else like it didn’t exist? Because, did you know that Disney has made multiple book series, and one of them was called Star Darlings, and it was pretty good.

Hello to all of you reading this! I truly welcome you all back to my game review series after the summer hiatus! It truly does feel nice to be back in the swing of things and writing again. To kick things off, my name is Logan Schlosser, and I am the Web Editor for the ASOP Student Newspaper. The articles I write for the student newspaper are usually all technology centered. In fact, last year I wrote a whole gaming PC build guide! However, the majority of my articles follow the series of me reviewing games that I love, which will be what today’s installment will be for. You can check those past articles out on the ASOP website if you are interested. Anyways with shameless article plugs and semi-formal introductions behind us. Let’s get right into this week’s game!

Do you ever wonder why a ship so good and pure in your eyes never becomes canon? Does it always irritate you that whenever there’s a show with two characters who are obviously meant for each other never kiss? Well, I have the answer for you!

If you’ve ever written stories, then chances are that you made one of your characters a Mary Sue (or Gary Stew for masculine characters). As most people know it, a Mary Sue is a perfect character with no flaws, everyone likes them, and the world basically revolves around them. What people don’t realize is that Mary Sue is honestly a term that is thrown around quite loosely. There is no dictionary definition of a Mary Sue, but there are definitely defining characteristics of one.

Like many artistic pursuits, there’s no real right or wrong way to write a song. Each artist is different, and only telling you the way that I do it could be in the completely opposite order of what works best for you. Depending on whether you have a way with words, know how to encode double meanings and have the patience to come back to something, change it, hate it, and love different parts of it every single day will determine whether you have the ability to write a song. The more critical you are on yourself and the more time and resources you have, the better.

From live-action movies to shojo anime, adaptations are one of the riskiest things a person can do. Despite what everyone says about adaptations, why do most of them suck?

Hello to all of you lovely people at home! Today is a very special installment of this series, as I am writing this a lot more tired than usual. So I apologize in advance to you all, also my editors, like they have to fix all of my sleep-deprived grammar. Anyways, today I have a treat of a game for you today. Now the review might be a bit shorter than usual, as the game is focused mainly on it’s comedy and I really don’t want to ruin the possible experience for you all. Anyways, I don’t wanna stall you all for much longer than I already do. So the game that I will be talking about today is Dude Stop.

For some reason, when I was starting my first book I put in one of the most obvious plot twists in all of my years of reducing myself to half a brain cell over a fictional story. That is half the reason why I recycled that story because everything is chaos. How to avoid this? Write good plot twists. Guess what, it’s a lot harder than you think.
