@abigail-m The 2014 Maleficent film was pretty good, from what I remember. But I was a kiddo back then so I don’t know if my judgement was good.
Trilogy? I think they’ve released five by now… I remember reading the last one first because I thought it wasn’t related. I have no memory of reading the rest, though, besides the first.
I should read…[Read more]

@abigail-m Yea that’s understandable. To help in-depth I’d need to know a bit more about the story, but I understand u may not want to tell all of that.
So I say just let your imagination do the work! I know, for me, I come up with a lot of ideas while listening to music. Also, talking about it to someone also helps. I’ve found sooooo many times…[Read more]

@abigail-m
Maybe I can help you?
First of all, if it’s any comfort, I know exactly how you’re feeling. Trust me when I say that writing is hard, so that’s normal! But I’d like to try to offer some advice (sorry in advance for a long response…)#1. For your first struggle, this is what I would recommend: let your plot come from your protago…[Read more]

Alexa Autorski replied to the topic Character Personality Tip Swap! in the forum Characters 5 years, 4 months ago
@abigail-m Thank you so much! At least I know I’m not the only one who struggles with this problem! And that’s a really good idea, putting my characters in wacky situations and “watching” them respond to it… that’s a wonderful way to help me figure out their personalities! I don’t think I’ve ever thought about doing that, but I’ll try it! Thanks…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting Caira would rather live in the Arctic (my fictional world is already pretty cold)

Would your character rather have to jump everywhere they go or walk on their hands everywhere they go?

@abigail-m Hello! Welcome to the Kingdom!
I love Robert Frost’s poems! I live up in New England, so his poems always reflect what’s around me.
I also love Narnia! It’s been a long time since I read them though, haha.
What do you like to do when you’re not writing?

@abigail-m Ethan would choose animals; Micah would choose weather.
@writerlexi1216 Ghost would rather breathe underwater.
Would your character rather only be able to read books or only be able to watch movies for the rest of their life?

Alexa Autorski replied to the topic Would You Rather Character Edition in the forum Characters 5 years, 4 months ago
Caira would rather have six arms (her magic is conducted through her hands, so that’d come in handy in combat…
Hmm… tough one! She’d probably communicate with the weather, though
Would your character rather be able to breathe underwater or fly?

Alexa Autorski replied to the topic Dialogue Tips? in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 4 months ago
That sounds like a super effective method, @abigail-m! That seems like a good approach to writing dialogue if it feels like you’re the one talking with them rather than other characters… I’ll give that a shot! And that quote is very helpful (I’m a fan of writing quotes)! And true, I try to incorporate plenty of action in the midst of dialogue, b…[Read more]
