I think I was 11 or 12 when I first started. And I found myself roped into a roleplaying community on facebook. I ended up making multiple accounts for roleplaying, and those accounts varied from fandoms; from Vocaloid to Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji. I had no idea what I was doing, I was mainly...
Don't force it. Creativity, especially if it's supposed to be fun, should not be forced to be present constantly. Otherwise it will actually get exhausting, frustrating, and feel less like a hobby.
I usually just step back for a little while, maybe take a break, or look up potential headcanons...
Mine was usually Final Fantasy, because I tend to like the games others don't like.
For example: Final Fantasy 13, or Final Fantasy 15.
Now I'm struggling with Deadly Class 😭😭
Well, see it like this; if you don't try, you won't know and won't even get the chance to find someone.
I get that it's frustrating to get no responses, or only ever get people who ghost, but if you enjoy roleplaying enough to want to put an effort in, then you might as well continue to put an...

I have ran a couple of groups myself, and helped run my husband's groups a couple of times too. And the same things just seem to happen over and over again...
1. People don't read.
2. People don't cooperate.
3...
Whenever you damn well feel like it.
I'm one of those people who can wait for weeks and months if my rp partner does not have the time, energy, or inspiration to reply. Roleplaying, to me, is supposed to be a laid-back and fun hobby, not a chore.
I personally hate it when people demand me to be...
I prefer PM when it comes to 1v1 sessions. I am incredibly self-conscious of my writing, but I also hate the prospect of someone messaging me to criticize my writing when it's not for them.
In group rps it's fairly different since everyone is writing in a (semi-)public setting.
Both, and it really depends what I'm trying to achieve or what the topic of the rp is.
Writing has been one of my main hobbies, something I have loved to do for YEARS. But there have always been walls I run into repeatedly.
For example; not knowing where to take the rp next. This may not...
