Paint a Picture

Writing is going slowly but steady at the moment. The chapter is almost half done and I expect to make some progress over the weekend. I finally came up with all the names for the new places and people. I’m not so sure if they are creative at all, but choosing names is just really not my forte.

I’m currently focusing my writing on descriptions,

I agree. That is, I agree with the up-side of ff being you can ease off on the descriptive parts a little. Anyone who is familiar with HP will have an image of the Burrow in his or her mind, and doesn't need reminding every five minutes. I just wanted to say that I began reading your fic, Magnetic Moment, a few weeks back and I have to say I love it. It's one of the reasons I joined actually, I think you're doing a superb job and please do finish the next chapter. It's fantastic!

Loving the avatar, it's a little post modern in a way! K x

Thank you so much.
I'm trying to update more quickly, but rl insists of getting in the way and I'm just a really slow writer. It's ridiculous how long I can spend on 100 words or just a simple sentence.
Post modern? Could be. But it's not like I planned it. The whole avatar just kind of happened. It was supposed to have something to do with magnets...obviously that didn't quite work out.

descriptions are indeed one of the most difficult thing about stories of every kind and indeed it's a big plus of ffs that the readers have the environment in their minds already.

the avatar turned out brilliantly indeed. :D Great job.

Thanks. Obviously I didn't go with golden writing after all.

yeah - but it would've been just too much gold in the picture, if the writing was golden as well, me thinks.

I added the rings later. They were supposed to be a lot smaller, just connecting the names. But when I was resizing them, I decided I liked them better big. So I had to change the color of the writing again.
