And yes, @Kina-Lamb, this—
I think sometimes when I think “introvert,” I think of people that don’t talk except inside their heads and to themselves, and blush whenever you look at them or talk to them because they’re so nervous. But that isn’t the case usually. Am I right introverts?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 yes ma’am. You do. *thumbs up* Good work.
The human intuition is a marvelous thing. 😉 A lot of the learning associated with writing, in my experience, is just learning the names of things your intuition already understands.
I know EXACTLY what you mean with the utensil metaphor— great way to describe it! lolAs for…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper if you’re in this much of a quandary, experiment. I’ve only ever done third person and I love it and I don’t think that’ll change, but if you feel like you need to switch, try it for a chapter or two. See if you like it. If it isn’t quality, you’ll only have spent a little time to solve a quandary that could have sabotaged your…[Read more]

@ethryndal @daeus @kate-flournoy @anyone else who’s done the whole rewriting thing.
So…I’m having a hard time deciding this. Writing in third person is really tough for me, and this favoritism thing might be a bit easier if I were actually writing from the POV of the introverts head. As I’m writing, I don’t like any of it. But I go onward.…[Read more] -

@that_writer_girl_99 Well, when there’s only one Dragon Snapper, you sometimes wonder what else there is to be afraid of. 😛
@graciegirl Yes, it’s just me. I won’t melt you. 😉 -

@hope Here is Sean…or was it Levi? Either way, not sure if it’s a likeness, but here he is anyway. 😛

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Character Art Exchange in the forum Art 9 years, 4 months ago
@That_Writer_Girl_99 *cheeky grin* Or a writer’s best friend. I guess it just depends on your perspective. 😉
Did you? I’m not seeing it…

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Character Art Exchange in the forum Art 9 years, 4 months ago
@Dragon-Snapper WOW THERE REALLY ARE A LOT. O.O :O
And yes indeed— hope seems to be a largely forgotten ingredient in modern literature. :/ Perhaps because God is a largely forgotten ingredient as well…?
NO PUNS @HOPE.
@GracieGirl I think I’m gonna try Lor YaZari. It may be a while before I get her to you because life, but I want to try. 😉

@that_writer_girl_99 Agreed. I knew there was a lot, they were just buried. 😛

@kate-flournoy I love it when there is hope, even in the bad situations in stories. I think it’s something writers nowadays forget too often.

I will start this thing off again by doing Sean. @hope

@That_Writer_Girl_99 yes! You’re getting it! 😀
Okay Kate. Settle down. Let us be calm here.
To be totally honest, I had to learn that too. 😛 It was quite a revolution for how I’d always thought, but hey. Revolutions can be good.
The thing I most love about this way of viewing plot is that it really, really develops the characters.So—…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 awesome! *grins* I have to say she was remarkably easy to capture on the first try. I think it’s because I already had a very firm grasp of her personality due to her well-executed voice in the snippet you shared. 😉
And— I originally saw Tam with reddish blonde hair, but now that you mention that… I can totally see it. 😀
