Ok so now that that is all out of the way, I can give you a quick sort of flow chart to follow if you'd like. Its something I do subconsciously nowadays, but take it how you will. I generally speaking, start off with an action. Something small, or something to react to the last part of someones post. So if I'm opening up the scene, its generally a movement. I'll drop out of the sky, or slink through the shadows, etc. Pretty easy. Add some emotion, a little context and you're well on your way. Next would be a part of speech. Now I talk a lot, but that doesn't mean much when it comes to writing other than it fills up the space for a para a bit quicker. So we got an action, a bit of speech. Next would be a feeling, or a thought that goes with it, generally about said person or situation. Just adds another layer to whats going on and gives people an inside look at the character from your POV as well. Next is an action directed AT that character. So you moved about, said something, thought something, but you've yet to interact with that person on the physical level. A squinted eye, a raised hand, a pointing finger, all pulling together to help you! Only you can get to para level! Ok shut up, Smokey the Bear was on TV just now. So now that you have all of that going on in the scene, its time to end it, to finish it with an action, something that the other person can react to and carry the scene forwards. It's not difficult, and this is usually the crucial part where people mess up. They focus on themselves so much that they lose sight of the give and take needed for a RP scene to come into fruition. So make sure you give them a tidbit to go off of!
The last little bit is the spelling portion of all this. I know I know, someone bitching about bad spelling and grammar right? Well let's get it out of the way right now, that I can't spell perfectly every time. Most of the time I type and paste and boom done. Buuuuuut, I go back and read over something and see the spelling errors I made, the grammar issues or what have you, and it sickens me to think that I did that. So what I did, and what I would advise those around me to do, is to type out your post, have your fun...but before you post it, take a quick read over it. Does everything look right? Does it seem spelled correctly? I often will use Google for words I'm not sure of. Want to know one that gets me every time? Guarantee. Seriously, I have such trouble with that word, and I have no clue why, but I make it a point to slow down and type it out. Now obviously it's not fool proof, but sometimes you'll notice other things. Missing words cause you were typing to fast, or something that doesn't quite make sense because of how you phrased it. So just keep it in mind yeah? Sweet. Alright, I think thats really all that needs to be said. As you can see, its not hard to reach para level writing, it just takes a bit of extra effort and some thought. You need to pay attention to whats going on, and really try to feel whats going on. Don't look at it like an intellectual exercise, rather, focus on the emotional depth behind it. The rest comes easily once you get that down. How you feel dictates what you think dictates what you do dictates how you react. So get that down, and you're golden!!
