Anyone around I’m editing my novel/reading a short story for a friend. 😀

@alia

I find that writers know how to write the least when they can’t hide behind their characters. But I’ll keep praying for you and I hope God brings you through this time soon. 🙂

@catwing

All right, Catwing, I am here to give you instruction in the way of the glorious character arc.

I’ll try to keep this concise:

So, I feel the trick to Character arcs are these two things. Basically, a character arc can’t just be the character going from A–B. I’ve read books/seen movies where the characters are one way at the start,…[Read more]

@alia so sorry, turns out I can’t write tonight. spending some time with my siblings. I might be on tomorrow or Monday even. Again, I’m so sorry!

@alia I might be on tonight, but it’ll most likely be late. How late do you wanna stay up? (can’t let @rochellaine and @seekjustice have all the late night fun 😉 )

@alia okay have fun!

I think I’m going to leave and take a break too. 🙂

@rochellaine okay bye!

@seekjustice Sorry, I forgot it was Sunday for you. Oops… Thank you!
(You’re right it was. I don’t think I said I invented the term did I? …)

@catwing

I’m currently getting ready for church so I don’t have time right now to answer your question, but  as soon as I get home I’ll give you a whole lecture on Character Arcs (hey, wasn’t slope a term invented by Daniel??)

@alia It’s really good. 🙂

@alia I can see… whoa. That is a very very cool collage. I almost want to go off and make a collage. XP I’ve made some for my characters. I put them all on my blog. Finding Secrets Collages
There’s also one on there for me. ;3

@alia That’s okay. 🙂
@rochellaine Well, that is sort of what I do so. 🙂 but not much help. Oh, well. @seekjustice what do you know about character arches?

@alia Okay. Basically a character arch is how your character changes through the book. So I’m trying to figure out what some of my characters faults that can change or need to change. But one of them progresses negatively so I’m calling hers a slope. 😛
Just trying to put down on paper some things… 🙂
Make sense? So I’m asking if you have any…[Read more]

@rochellaine @alia Well I’m working on developing my characters’ arches/slopes do you have any tips from when you do that? Or do you not do character arches/slopes?

@alia Ah, well. *shrug* At least I know they’re pretty good. 😉

@alia no, that wasn’t me, I haven’t read them. But it sounds interesting so I may read them. ;3

@alia …friend she was talking about? Well, I don’t know what she said so it could be a different friend. But we have met in real life, if that is what you mean.

@alia that’s very interesting. I may read those books some time… ;P

@catwing @dekreel @jane-maree @rochellaine @seekjustice @dragon-snapper @gh24682468999 @alia @kaya-young @skredder @everyone

I just put up another blog post today! Don’t worry, I won’t tag you every time I post, I just wanted to let y’all know. For some reason the email sent out that was supposed to notify of new posts only sent out one and not…[Read more]

@rochellaine Hello! I’m doing pretty well. My book is coming along, I may even write some today. (If I finish getting these wrinkles out of this outline.) 😛

@alia Oh, how fun! New book ideas can be intriguing, or distracting… ;P
