@skredder What’s the girl’s name? Her real one, and the one her new family gives her?

January 8, 2018 at 7:30 pm #59439@skredder Nice names! Why did you choose them?

https://forums.theaetherliJanuary 8, 2018 at 7:52 pm #59442@aislinn-mollisong I chose Kerry because one of the meanings of that name is dark-haired. She has black hair. And I chose Dagny because it means New Day. I thought that was a good choice for someone who is starting their life over from the very beginning.

January 9, 2018 at 4:28 pm #59539@skredder I don’t have any thoughts on how you could continue your story.
But I think the ending/climax is one of the most important parts of your story. it isn’t just about trying to find a way to make everything wrap up. It communicates a point to the reader. Here are a few ideas that hopefully could help you at all.
What are the results of your characters actions?
What is the conflict of the story and what does it take to resolve?
What point are you trying to communicate?
Maybe you need to further develop your antagonist?
You could try looking into the three-act structure to help understand it better
What do you want your characters to experience/grow to?
Your story sounds interesting! I hope you figure things out 😉I can't believe it's not butter!
