Awesome! What do you like about math?
That makes sense, I definitely prefer hard worldbuilding, but when done right, soft worldbuilding can be really cool.
I haven’t read Eragon, but I’ve read some of his more recent books, like To Sleep in a Sea of Stars, but they’ve been getting increasingly more adult in content. I don’t…[Read more]

Nice to meet you! I was homeschooled up until sixth grade. Currently I’m a freshman in high school. Public school and home school definitely have pro’s and con’s! I love public school because of how structured it is and how it teaches responsibility, but home school feels so much safer and there’s no drama between mean girls and fake…[Read more]

I don’t think tomato soup is a smoothie, but I swear my whole youth group would fight me on that!

I love Eragon by Christopher Paolini! IT’S SO GOOD!!!
I don’t have a favorite character, I love them all!
And I don’t think a hot dog is a sandwich. Don’t ask me why because I can’t prove it, but it’s just my opinion!
Question for you:Â is a tomato soup just a hot smoothie?

I love math too, however I’m not very good at it, I tend to get confused. I also write sci-fi/fantasy! I read a little of everything, though.
I kind of do both hard and soft worldbuilding, but I haven’t been doing it that long, it’s more of a recent project. I think I like hard more, but haven’t done enough to know for sure.

Hi Sara! Welcome to KP!
I’m the Arcane Axiom, I love math, searching for divine fundamental truth, and exploring that in my writing. I read/write sci-fi/fantasy, and my current project is a universe I’m working on with my sister called the Septrum.
Questions!
Do you lean towards hard or soft worldbuilding? (hard meaning…[Read more]

Maybe I should have you make up names for my story, haha! I am terrible at making up names for places, names of people, rivers and stuff like that! I made up the name Azuri, but that’s about the only one. I usually look up “weird names” on google and use what I like.

Exactly!!!! My little sister HATES reading with a passion too! All she will read is non-fiction about animals and stuff like that. All I read is fiction, so we’re polar opposites! I read about 300 pages in about 3 to 4 hours so I can read about a book per day in the summer. It takes my dad a month to finish a book of the same…[Read more]

I know! Sometimes I read so much I get “banned” from the library because I don’t spend time with my family when I’m reading, haha!

SLAYING SARAAAA ✨✨ replied to the topic Hello! in the forum Start HERE 2 years, 8 months ago
I know! I’m kind of a speed reader, and sometimes I don’t stop reading once I start a book until I finished it. Sometimes I can finish a 300 page book in 2 hours! It gets kind of annoying because a good book only gives me about two to three hours, and I remember everything so I can’t read it again for like a year! I read so much that my mom bans…[Read more]

That sounds like fun! Yes, I do have spotify. I can’t write without music! Normally I listen to christian playlists, but I also would like to find instrumentals, but not sure where to look, so that sounds like a great idea!

Hey guys!
I am writing a fantasy world where after the “fall of man” the world is overrun by evil, similar to today’s crazy world. One of the characters gets physically abused by a relative, and I’m not sure how to depict it without being too graphic or violent. Any ideas?
Also I need help with how the character will act after trauma like abuse.…[Read more]

Hi, I’m new too! Just joined today, and I’m so excited! I’m a teenage girl who loves Jesus, writing, and animals!
My favorite book series would probably be The Inheritance with Eragon being the first book. The series is written by Christopher Paolini. Fun fact: He published Eragon at age 15! That is so inspiring to me to publish my first book be…[Read more]

My name is Sara, but my pen name is Savannah Grace. When I’m not at school, I’m writing, reading, playing volleyball, or with my dog, Willa!
I mostly write fantasy/sci-fi and realistic fiction. Currently I’m writing an allegory that takes place in a different world.
I am so excited to meet other writers that want to write for Jesus!

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic How to create new, yet beloved characters? in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 8 months ago
Yeah, that’s the thing with mechanics, you can force it, so sometimes you need to take a break and come back to it. This doesn’t only apply to things like worldbuilding, but really everything. Math problems I struggle with for example seem to suddenly fit together rather simply if I take a week off from it.

Lol! Yes, I would greatly advocate templates if they weren’t abused as much as they are.
That’s awesome you had the same thought, it’s still a rather simple what if, because it is a simple inversion of a binary concept we encounter daily, but that alone can still lead to incredible worlds of a completely different nature, with…[Read more]

Yeah, if an iterative process like that works for you, then that’s an excellent way of doing it. It would help with refinement, allowing you to perfect the writing, as long as it isn’t too much revision that no progress is made.
If you want to make a strong cast, and your not worried of over attachment, then I would say it works…[Read more]

Yes! You’ve worded it perfectly Whale! It’s definitely not something you can control, I personally find it fruitful to just talk about it, and think openly with others, but my best ideas just kind of come to me randomly.
There’s ideas that could never be on a template, like: What if there was a world where light and dark switched…[Read more]
