Well, that isn't something that really is a layout for. Sure there are common rules and laws in writing you should break and what not. But when it come down to prose it depends on both the reader and writer.

As long as the reader knows where a scene takes place and who is talking during said scene then its fine. From there it's up to you to know how to write it, what kind of prose you want to use, how much detail and length each scene has and the amount of dialog tags.

I simple structure, of a beginning, middle and end is usually required and I recommend that if you are writing your first story. Try to keep your first rather simple and not too complex. First or Third person limited, with some flavor sprinkled around.

Write a story about a Skelerton who suddenly bursts from his skin and has to learn to live in society, explaining that everyday to everyone. Best part? He's a doctor.

You can call it "Boneside Manner."

Aaron. you are a hotbed of great ideas, but I need to learn how to do it alone.
Writer's block is half the battle, right?

Geez, I caught up and was gonna congratulate Oberon, but then continued to catch up.

I dunno if you still want advice, but some of my best friends are female and have boyfriends. Just treat them like anybody else, girls are people too.

- apperantly I have no when a girl likes you or not
- Alway be clear from the beginning
- Not everybody changes their relationship status on facebook
- This things don't happen in Persona! But now I hope this is a feature in P5!

It is, though sometimes you need to say fuck it, and just write it. My writers block usually appears when I have a scene I have no idea how to write well. So I say fuck it, and just write it, even if the scene is less than stellar. Get the story moving and writing again, and maybe I can go back and edit it later.

Well, it's hard to miss when it has to make it's way all the way to Sweden (Oberon's grill was a swedish exchange student right?)

Welcome to the club. Dating sucks! It's not straightforward as it can or should be.
The biggest thing, no matter how "unattractive" you may think you are, is to keep confident. Don't be afraid to be yourself. There's no woman out there who doesn't like confidence.

Whew, almost had me there for a second.

In other news I finished the first chapter of Berserk. That guy was a snake. Also I continue to feel weirdly about Puck, but at least now I know who that is.

Its pretty cool so far, though. The action is good, but the art is pretty rough. Like, shockingly so considering the beautiful images I've seen randomly. Also, my scanlator calls him "Gatts" which sucks.

She's isn't an exchange student. The exchange student is from sweden, those are two different personnes. I have to speak in French every day!

The first volume of berserk was released 24 years ago, it's fiiiiine. You'll just have to work your way through it. It also get's better quite fast, iirc. Not as good as it is now, but better at least.

OH sorry. Got confused then.

Stay friends with her. Learn about girls. HAving a good Girl friend goes a long way to figuring out how to approach women without being called creepy.

So should I act as if it never happened? Mention it jokingly?

Do you thinks that that meeting would be a good opportunity to ask her if that other girl has a boyfriend too?

I'll take that as accents we find attractive when it's a girl speaking.
Can't think of many examples.
Southern US talking in english, french talking in english, british english talking in french.

Don't bring it up again. Just go hang out with her like normal.

I've never tried it, but casually adding "maybe her boyfriend can..." or something similar in the discussion could weed out the answer.
