@anne-of-lothlorien I write in both first and third person. I love them both. Some stories fit first person and some third person. Then there is Scarlet Rose where I flip between first person, present tense, and third person past tense. It works really well. 🙂

@Sarah-H no, I hadn’t. That’s so cool. *goes and scribbles down ‘glow-in-the-dark dragons’ in her notebook* This could be really fun. 😀

@Anne-of-Lothlorien I like the last four choices— without the ‘the’.

Yes to the villain things, @Hope @Daeus. Also the Kylo Ren example is a little more drastic than we usually deal with— after all, we’re usually dealing with humans, not jedi, and humans can have compassion without completely ruining their reputation as a bad guy because compassion is just compassion, not ‘the light side’. But good example just…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien Sorry, flat out of dark chocolate. Almost out of Pringels now too, which is my salty snack of choice.
I am up to 20,000 words though and I’m hoping to write an extra 1000 or so today so I will have more freedom later on in the month around Thanksgiving…

@anne-of-lothlorien I so want to read a book like that. And, if no one writes it, I may have to undertake the task myself. Someday. 😉
As for my bad guys, I like to make them quite bad and yet human at the same time. I want the readers to be able to see why they made the choices they did, and how the choices got them to where they are now.…[Read more]

@daeus @Michael-Stanton @mark-kamibaya About the smiley faces, there are a thing I’ll point out. If someone is new, how can they end up helping people and yet they don’t have a lot of smiley faces?

@anne-of-lothlorien Aw, Madam Blueberry! I love that one, and thanks to you, I’ll be singing the Thankful Heart song all day. 😀

@anne-of-lothlorien Definitely human. I feel that they can be more complex and rounded that way, not just an average badguy.
And about your lunch, that is hilarious! Although it’s probably not something I would do, it’s still funny. I’d probably say something snappy (hence Dragon Snapper). And yes, I did ask the question, and I can hardly write…[Read more] -

I’ll be writing for the next two hours, most likely, @jess , so I’ll keep an eye out for you. 🙂

I’m still writing, @jess !

Also please tell me I’m not the only person who enjoys waving at people in other cars while we drive, or smiling up at the drivers of the big semis when they stare down at our huge van in astonishment…
@Kate-Flournoy Nope. You isn’t. 😀 😛

@overcomer Oh, okay. I’m taking a break no for lunch as I have been writing since I tagged you above (with a twenty minute break for a singing lesson). I’ll see what I’m doing after lunch and if I can join you, I’ll tag you.
Btw I got 1613 in that time. 😉 -
Mallory O'Bier replied to the topic Writers' Corner #3 in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
I was taking a break when you replied, @bluejay , and didn’t see it ’till now, but I’m still writing for 2 hours if you still want to join.
