Kill her.
>her

Looks like it's just about time for a self insert character.

Sometimes I write fanfics of us living together on a small trawler,exploring the seas, living only for one another and then I illustrate them.

this is dark nigger, i hope you find peace

I fall in love with all the characters I write. That's why I never seem to be able to finish what I start. I don't want to change them. I don't want to put them through hard times. Some need to die. But I can't kill them.

wow

This sounds too crazy to be real

ask her out bro or ul ragret it big time

don be pussE

Post an excerpt of the story
Pro tip: u cant and u know why.

Post some of the drawings, nigger

Living only for another person is not love, it's some sick perversion of love. But I guess a healthy understanding love is not something you should be expected to have. I have a strong feeling that you're rping though cause I had a similar characterization come across my thoughts when I read OP.

describe them or post an excerpt

>creating characters out of thin air instead of having them all be people you know with different names
>not already having been in love with all of you female characters before pen even reaches paper

I mean, is user even trying

I'm going to save this, I think it will make an excellent story, either a film or a novel.

Her name is Anna and her looks and personality are based on 3-4 girls I know irl, although she is much younger. She is the star of the erotic novel I'm planning to write. I'm basically writing summaries of the chapters I'm going to write in the future and fantasizing about the scenes as I go along. I also fapped to a few scenes in my made up story and came buckets, like literally didn't cum like that for ages, and I fap to porn every day, so this is unusual. I'm pretty sure I'm on the road to become this guy

Please prove this I love this greentext

It was all done on an old school type writer since I didn't have electricity at the house. Idk where they are at this point since this happened a while back. It's fair if you find this unbelievable though.
I'm not very good and I don't want to share too much but here's a quick sketch from a few years ago.
True, I guess it's more of an idealized fantastical version of the concept. Obviously it could never be achieved in reality.
It was nothing special, esp. by Veeky Forums standards. The story was a piece of historical fiction revolving around the emergence and rapid growth of Jazz. It took place from around the 1930s to late 70s. The protagonist was a young up and comer who was mentored by Artie Shaw. Shaw was ostracized by his family for pursuing black music as a white man so he ended up forging a familial bond with the protagonist who is a classically trained Colombian musician. Shaw helps him reconcile his very precise and rigid form of playing with the natural free form improvisation that is inherent to Jazz. yadda, yadda, works with other greats like Duke Ellington and Benny Goodman, etc. it goes from there. There's also some psychedelic and retro-futuristic elements to it. A lot of it about my love for Jazz so it sounds pretty bland unless you read it. Can't explain it all. The love interest was a French singer who the protagonist encounters later in life after achieving minor celebrity across Europe.

You should go to a psychotherapist, or at least find a real girlfriend

Pygmalion is that you?

> it’s real
Oh sweet baby Mohammad, I don’t know what you need to do but do something other than what you’re doing now

You had me on the hook until (((white man))).

Dude who fucking cares you’re the same goddamn color

Sounds interesting. Why didn't you give it an alternate ending just for yourself, while going with the "straight" one in order to see it published?
>be normal or we'll laugh at you!
Yeah, no.

>Dude who fucking cares you’re the same goddamn color
Tell them that and see what the reaction is. They insist that they are different so I take their word for it.

It's too late for that. I've been saving up for a trawler for the past couple years and will probably get one within the next 2-3 years. After that I'll live alone and chill at sea for most of my time.
kek
It wouldn't be real anymore. It would probably just end up feeling like head canon if my version remained unpublished while the other one got read by others.

Write a book describing exactly this scenario, it would make a great dark novel.

A challenger appears for the best copypasta ever written thread

Pyggy-Pyggy-Pygmalion

just turn her into a tulpa so you can be together, forever

8ch dot net slash tulpa, welcome amongst us.

Haha what a faggot

Good lord user, this sounds horrible. I hope you find peace man. What do you intend to do at sea? Become a fisherman or just a lonely traveller?

Might want to swing by the MLP board and get some Tulpa advice

Just a lonely traveler, it'd be nice to get away from all these people. A place of my own away from civilization is all I really want at this point. I'll try to catch enough fish to live off of, but if I can't I'll just by everything in bulk and resupply every couple weeks.

I fell in love with one of my own, too. A secondary character, and it is the real health to be with her.

OP, you should keep writing.

If it's any consolation, what happened to you is not THAT unusual - it's just a bit more extreme than most, haha :) Obviously the Pygmalion story arose for a reason.

Some examples of writers getting too attached to their characters / their fictional world:

>P.G.Wodehouse
He had a miserable time at boarding school as a child and invented a magical friendly world in his head to live in. He doesn't actually write himself into his books but people who knew him said he wasn't really living on Planet Earth.

>Arthur Conan Doyle
*Not* Holmes, but Professor Challenger, apparently. Doyle was so taken by him he started acting more and more like him as he grew older (annoying his wife no end).

>Dornford Yates
He's pretty much unknown now but he was a very popular light romance/thriller writer in England in the 1930s-ish.
He had a set of characters he always used and after a while he started writing himself into the stories. His cutest female character was married so he just killed off her husband & two small children in a plane crash and married her to himself. Hahahaha.

>R.A.Heinlein
He did (sort of) the opposite - he kept writing his wife into his books. All his female characters were weird idealized versions of his wife. Often they were (much) younger too, which is weird. She didn't seem to mind, though.

Put me in screencap

Ten years of flipping burgers can truly break a man, hu?

Honestly man, you seem to be the kind of simple and hoenst person who I think a lot of person would like to hear and read. Keep at the writing man, even if it's just for yourself. And godspeed.

You will only be cucked if you can get a publish.

It sounds too crazy to be fake
