@Dragon-Snapper congratulations on branching out. 😉

They’ve covered a lot… the only thing new I have to add is pretty small. You mentioned that you’re tired of writing snarky characters and want to try something different, but had no idea how to go about it…

Why do you like snarky characters in the first place? Is it because they come easy…[Read more]

@Kina-Lamb well, that’s pretty sound as far as I can see. 🙂 The only step I might add between the two is figuring out the theme, but I’ve not done non-fiction before, so I can’t say for certain how majorly that would figure in.

In your place, I would just ask myself, What lesson does this story teach me? To have courage? To persevere? To be kind…[Read more]

@Dekreel @That_Writer_Girl_99 @Dragon-snapper @Ethryndal @Daeus @Audrey-caylin @Jane-maree @Shannon @Sam-Kowal wow, thanks so much guys, all of you. Just getting the general feedback and feeling out opinion about the existing title helped me get so much more perspective.

@Jane-Maree, believe it or not, I had actually already considered Destroyer,…[Read more]

@Ethryndal definitely better. I love it just how it is, but as Daeus mentioned, you might cut out the first bit about her step-sister without any damage and probably with benefits.

@Ethryndal your sneaking suspicion is absolutely correct, but otherwise this is absolutely brilliant.

Seriously, and I almost forgave it for being too long because all of it was awesome. So yeah. It’s good. *vigorous nodding*

@Daeus I already said this, but congratulations. 😉

@Dragongeek good point… 😛 Just try to find a power that actually fits with the story for a reason. Don’t just go for super-speed or super-strength ‘because’. Think through what would best fit.

What era/type of names are you looking for?

@Daeus I like that… not as much as Excelsior though.

Ugh. Decisions decisions.

You know what? I’m going to just throw caution to the winds and say go with Excelsior. I can’t think of anything I like better or even as well as. If you can think of a tagline of sorts to go with it though, so it’s more clear what it means and what it’s for, that…[Read more]

@Alia hmmm… interesting. Okay. Thank you for pointing that out; I’ll have to look at it again.

@Daeus oooh, I really like the idea behind Excelsior, but most people are probably just going to go… ‘huh? Sounds like some weird Latin elitist club or something… *yawns**scrolls past*’

So… maybe something slightly less high and lofty and a little more down-to-earth. (Can’t believe I just said that.) I can’t think of anything right off the…[Read more]

XD Okay… lemme see if I understand you here. You thought that K became ‘evil’ like M, but then K wasn’t evil? And it confused you?

@Alia

@Alia did it? How so?

@Dekreel here. *hands you ice-cream* I think I can do that because I’m pretty sure they made me secretary or… something. 😛

@Sam-Kowal thank you. I granted you access. 🙂

@Emily it’s no worry. 🙂 I understand.

@cindygreen yup. It’s @Daeus. I think he offered free ice cream for the right to the throne or something… there have been several attempted insurrections by a certain *cough* other Chosen One and her fellow insurgents, but thus far free ice cream has won out.

Kate Flournoy (Katherine Olivia Flournoy)

Human (has been known to alternate between elf and dragonet at times)

Outer space. Probably. Hops between any and all realms, times and dimensions at will.

Short, thin; fair skin, long black hair with faint red and gold highlights (not kidding), chocolate brown eyes, oddly pointed, slightly turned-up…[Read more]

@Alia behold. *flourish* I give you @northerner.

@Aislinn-Mollisong aha, I see. 😛 *belatedly revives you*

So, was there anything that confused you about the story? How well were you able to connect to the characters and their motivations? Was it difficult to piece together the backstory?
