Here’s our character cafe, all ready to go!
The Participating characters
Kate/ @kate-flournoy:
Arianwen
She’s courteous and mature outwardly, with a quick smile and a gracious tongue, but inwardly she’s insecure in a lot of ways. She’s afraid of rejection, afraid to let herself become attached to someone because if the relationship doesn…[Read more] -

No, I’ve got it. I’m compiling all the info really quick and then I’ll start a new topic.
Just give me a sec. 😉 -

Great!
Um… how? 😛

Chronicles is a cool word that has to do with history. Could it be The Chronicles of (whatever)?
Also I looked up history in the thesaurus and came up with Yesteryear. It’s a cool word, but I’m not sure if that’s what you want. Maybe Yesterage or something. 😉 Make up a word or merge two words together to get what you want.

Alrighty then. Let’s start it up. 🙂

Perhaps the island itself can be a portal of sorts; or there’s a portal in the center of the island and the characters have to get there (is it guarded by someone or do they just have to figure out how to use it?) and use it to get home.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic HELP!!! in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 10 years, 10 months ago
I actually thought of that, but the problem is I start at almost the very end of the story, then go all the way back to the beginning… um, let me give some backstory.
This is basically an ‘historical’ series. The first two books are set in the eleventh age (eleven thousandth year) of my make-believe whatever-you-call-it. Then I go all the way…[Read more]

COOL!
I’m up for it. You’ll have to bear with me as I am new to this game, but I want to do this so I’m not going to let that stop me. *nods, clenches fist* I can do this. Just tell me when I do something wrong. 😛

*nods* that’s what I was thinking for an inter-genre island. Nice examples. XD
I think we’ll be the only people on the island. Though some fictional creatures from multiple genres will be roaming the island.
Let’s see… so either we get off the island to get back to our own world, or there’s some sort of portal that we have to go through.…[Read more]

Cool! Looks like we’ve got a good number of people here. Now we need a situation.
How about…
Let’s go for a inter-genre island where our characters have been stranded and must find a way to get back into their own stories.
*looks around* any objections? Is that too weird? -

I don’t usually scream for help, but I’ve got a problem here I can’t figure out and I was hoping you guys had some ideas.
It’s really simple.
I need a name for my series. Its current name is ‘Generations’ but that isn’t dramatic enough for me. I just need a word (I’d like to keep it a one word title if I can) that means basically the same thing…[Read more]

Hey, I like that guys. 😀
So are we outlining Walter’s whole story, or just the parts that mark key points in his development?

Hope Ann replied to the topic Writing Music in the forum Music 10 years, 10 months ago
Here’s some music I’ve started listening to. There’s a whole list and I really like it. Well, I like most of what I’ve listened to so far; I can’t vouch for everything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHP2GgxYddY&index=1&list=RDxHP2GgxYddY

This sounds like fun, if I can keep up. 🙂
My character is Anna West. She’s 18, a bit on the petite side, and has green eyes and dark brown hair. She is very organized, used to tight situations, has experience with fighting, guns, and information gathering. She lost part of her family in an attack two years ago. She’s a strong Christian and talks…[Read more]

Ooooo, the boredmuse…is that meant to distract me from what I’m supposed to be doing or give me more ideas than I could possibly write?

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Character Café in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 10 months ago
Already I like him. 😉
I guess I should have described Arianwen. She’s probably about five feet ten inches— pretty tall for a woman, but she’s not big, just tall. Dark blue eyes, black hair, very white skin. She wears almost exclusively dark, vivid blue. And she has a pygmy dragon for a companion, but I don’t know if he’ll be popping up or not.…[Read more]

Rosey Mucklestone replied to the topic Character Café in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 10 months ago
Arianwen sounds awesome, @kate-flournoy!
I’ll be doing this with Captain Quinn.
He’s a firm believer in God, though doesn’t take opportunities to shove it in people’s faces. Selfless and loyal to his friends. Good logical thinker and problem solver. A dedicated optimist. If anyone here does character MBTI, he’s an ISFJ.
Physically, he’ll probably…[Read more] -

You and I must have been posting at the same time, @writefury. 😀 I understand it now, I think.
So let me be the first to introduce my character. Her name is Arianwen— Anwen for short, except only I and her husband are allowed to call her that. So she’s Arianwen to you.
She’s courteous and mature outwardly, with a quick smile and a gracious…[Read more] - Load More
