@alia I’m not sure how clean they are…the one I read was fine, but that was just one that my mum suggested to me because it was based on The Phantom of the Opera, so you’d have to check that out more thoroughly.

Ceer brings to mind a “strong female character” sort of person. No nonsense, brisk, strong, but not necessarily heartless. Probably a…[Read more]

I’m not sure the names of his books, but he wrote a lot, I’ve only read one but he also tends to use clichés in humorous ways. My mum likes his books.

@alia That sounds so great! I would totally read that! I’ll see if I can think of any more.

@alia That would actually be really funny! It reminds me of a book I once read where all the characters in the novel are actually just actors and everytime someone opens the book they have to play the novel out all over again, which of course, they hate.

@alia

All right…the clichés:

Villain clichés:

• villain always, always wears black. Maybe red, if they’re feeling adventurous.
• They tend to be rather tall and thin and have long fingers
• and hands which they rub together when they feel evil
• and a cackling laugh
• also must have a henchman who’s short
• fat
• stupid
• and refers to the v…

@alia *cracks knuckles* My time has come! Was there a particular genre you wanted? I do fantasy, so here are a bunch of fantasy ones.

MC being the Chosen One
Being an orphan
Having strange, unexpected powers previously unaware of
A whole society the MC didn’t know about living right under noses
“Good” elves and dwarfs, “evil” orcs, goblins,…[Read more]

It could be interesting, clichés are fun to play with! @rochellaine likes doing clichés and making them humorous, so she might have some tips for you! My course of action tends to be killing them…violently. But they are a lot of fun to play with. Have you ever read anything by Terry Pratchett?

@alia Fun is the word to describe it…*rolls eyes and faints dramatically*

Awesome! Ah, I love clichés too. I use way too many of them.

@alia Polishing up some blurbs. How about you?

@alia Hello!

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @valtmy

By the way, remember how I was bragging the other day about how few parent characters I killed? I just realised that  I’m not doing as well as I thought I was because Sapphire was also a mother. And I killed her on screen, so to speak. I can’t get away with the “but she was dead beforehand” like I do with Zac’s…[Read more]

@rochellaine I’m back! Are you back?

@rochellaine Did you have a good time?

Okay. Well, I’m attempting a few different versions, I’ll ask your opinion on them when I’m done.

I’m going to disappear for half an hour to an hour and then I’ll be back.

@seekjustice well, if you find any good ones, let us know. 😉

@rochellaine

I have to leave now. Happy writing! (I probably won’t be on much the next couple weeks, but I’ll be blogging).

@jenwriter17

Me neither, maybe I’ll have to hunt down a few blog posts on writing blurbs.

(I’m glad. I know I worry a lot about upsetting people, but I can’t help it)

@seekjustice That sounds interesting! 🙂 I don’t have any suggestions, but yet I don’t know much about writing blurbs.

(I saw your post in my email; you didn’t come across as selfish to me. We’re here to help each other. 😉 )

@rochellaine Hi! 🙂

@rochellaine @jenwriter17

And *poof*! My post has vanished. I’m not sure whether you got it or not, but I’ll try again.

(By the way, I sounded a bit selfish in that last post, if you read it. I’m sorry and I don’t mean to sound like I was only telling you about my project because I wanted help on it. I love talking with you about my writing–and…[Read more]

@jenwrter17

Great! 😀

Yes, they are!
