This the the writer-artist OokamiKasumi from LJ, Yaoi Gallery, MangaBullet, and Fur Affinity. Don't expect much from me here. All of my stories and most of my art is way too adult for this place. If you want to see what I can really do, look me up on the other sites.

This account is merely to troll for Tutorials, Photoshop resources, and browse the occasional art piece.

Personal Quote: "I can resist anything--but temptation."
Interests
For those interested in the free visual novels I create, I have a new one. Unfortunately, it's is a hair too adult for DA.

It's called the Erotic Story Generator.
-- Game Page with screen caps and download link --> [link]

Anyone familiar with Seventh Sanctum's generators will recognize the "list generated" style immediately. Basically, you click a button and a story happens. What's different about mine isn't merely the the way the words actually fit together to make a coherent story, but the sheer magnitude of the content.

Each story generates from Eleven lists -- with over 50 items per list:

2 Character lists
2 Character description lists
2 locations lists
2 Smut/Action lists
2 Locations lists
1 Conclusion list (the story's End.)

Plus there's Music, and Graphics.
-- Though I'll warn you now, there are only a few PG-16 images and they're only suggestive, not graphic. However it does use Adult language!!!

It's free to download AND free to use! Seriously, if the generator provides inspiration - USE IT! In fact, that's exactly why I made it, to help erotic writers come up with plot-based Adult story ideas.

If you do download it, let me know if you like it.
-- I'm considering making one of the not-so-adult variety -- IF people show interest in something like this.

:icondd-catalogue: Faery Tale a Visual Novel by *OokamiKasumi The suggester wrote: "This game is well thought out - easy to navigate, fun to play (some quite nice eye candy in there too) and all resource providers have been credited whether off-site or here on DA. The illustrations and layout are beautiful - the storyline(s) are contemporary with a slight macabre sprinkling of what I can only guess is inspired by The Grimm's Fairytales... You'll have hours of fun exploring each storyline and being awe-inspired by the hard work and attention to detail put into creating it."

:icondd-catalogue: GMC - SIMPLIFIED
"I am – I Need – I Desire…"
Goal, Motivation & Conflict - SIMPLIFIED

Goal, Motivation and Conflict seems to be the BIG MYSTERY of fiction writing. Everyone says that they're essential to good writing – and they're right, they are. Absolutely. But this stuff can be a little confusing.

Let's begin at the beginning…
-- What are all these things and why do stories need them?

Goal is what your character THINKS they are after.
Motivation is what makes them WANT to go after it.
Conflict is what Gets In Their Way.
-- Internal Conflict being ANGST or Drama.
-- External Conflict being the PLOT or Events.

The Plot (

As this is Project Educate's Resources Week, give GMC - SIMPLIFIED by *OokamiKasumi a read for tips on discovering the goals, motivations, and conflicts of your characters which may impede them, all crucial to fiction writing.

I have tip suggestion: Things to get you from being a begimmer writer to an intermediate/advanced writer, or maybe the most common mistakes writers make that make people think of them as amateur.

I'm not sure if you take suggestions for tips, but I wonder if you could give an advice on making a story without a villain? A story where friends/lovers have to deal with each other without any kind of bag guy. With an antagonist but no Big Bad
Thanks anyway

Do you take suggestions for your writing tips cause if you do I have one.

Could you do like a step by step thing on plotting/planning out your novel. Like where you would start and where would you go after that all the way until your totally prepared to write your novel.

I really like your writing tips. They've been helping me on typing a story I planned.

But still, I was wondering. It works for writing comic too, isn't it?

Getting to your profile's comment section is a scrolling fest, but here I am, and I am going to say what I came here to say. As a German native trying to wrap my head around the English language your guides, tips and tricks prove to be a source of great insight to me. While I read and dissect English literature on an almost daily basis there is always a pattern that falls through the cracks. By now I have learnt more from you than from ten years of school English - unsurprisingly so, but it's still meant as a compliment.

Thank you for your time, work and effort. Thank you for providing extensive and useful information free of charge.

Thank you so much for your tutorials, they're very helpful and insightful, but I do have one question. What are your views on killing off characters?

I'm glad you liked them!

My view on character deaths is the same as Hemmingway's:
-- "Murder your darlings."
