@abigail-m What about this?
Heed my words,
Listen well,
Because if you don’t,
You will fail.
Don’t give heed to tempting thoughts,
Or voices that would steal your heart,
Cold and dark you’re soul will be,
If you don’t listen to the words I speak,
Quiet the voice or pay the price
For you don’t want to be like me;
Don’t become the…

Hi y’all, so I’ve got a bit of an issue I need some help with.
I’m currently drafting and while I know its anything but perfect (which is fine) I’m still struggling with something.
How do you introduce characters into a new world and to new characters without making it rushed and just….blech. Lol.
So a bit of backstory. My two characters,…[Read more]

@abigail-m Hi Abigail,
No worries about the late welcome, as I’m offering you an equally late reply. I have never heard of Reedsy but thank you for introducing me I’ll definitely check it out. My favorite setting to write in, assuming you’re talking about the physical author me is anywhere where I can see the outside view–preferably of nature. I…[Read more]

Ah ok. Thank you!
=====================================================================
@abigail-mHi Abigail! Nice to meet you!
I don’t think I have a favorite setting. It kind of depends on the story. Though with most of my initial settings, a fireplace ends up in there somewhere. XD
My favorite archetype is the…[Read more]

Aw thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked it. That story is probably my favourite work out of everything I’ve written. I actually entered it in a short story competition several years ago and ended up winning the overall prize. It was published in an anthology, but to be honest I’m not sure what copyright laws apply now so I…[Read more]

Yes, boredom is definitely a privilege. Sounds weird, I know, but it’s true… how old are your siblings? *high fives back* 🙂 I don’t really know what kinds of poetry there are. Umm… poetry that rhymes? 😛 I don’t usually write free-form poetry. Life must have structure!!!!!!!!! *clears throat and straightens dress* Well, anyway.…[Read more]

Such a sweet story! It’s kinda cool how something that can be such a hassle for one person can be a dream come true for another.
He sounds like such a cool character!
Although it doesn’t happened all the time, I love it when I see or meet someone who seems straight out of a fictional world. Everything about them is so…[Read more]

@abigail-m Thanks! Better late than never they say. 😛 Yup! The Narnia soundtracks are amazing! I’m very much an amateur, but I do it for fun anyway, so it doesn’t matter. My favorite category is animals/nature (if that’s even a category). My chickens in particular are fun to photograph. My favorite setting is probably the…[Read more]

@abigail-m Very much looking for an opportunity every chance I get. It’s just too good to pass up.
@lewilliams I’m with Kathleen on villainous ice cream trucks. You should definitely include it in a story. Like, where do ice cream trucks even come from? Are they even stoppable?
@relia Ah, yes, I’ve done this myself several times. It’s awesome,…[Read more]

Hello friends!
I hope everyone is doing well <3
So, long story short, I’m attempting to “get back into” reading. It’s been a long while since I’ve read regularly for pleasure (I blame being an English major in college–it’s difficult to find the mental space for a “fun” book when you’re floundering through various reading lists, you see), and I…[Read more]
