NC Stokes replied to the topic PRAYER REQUESTS #2 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
Writing is an “alone-y” sort of thing. We sit in our caves, or corners, or hidey holes, and turn ideas into worlds and people. We may be surrounded by make-believe characters, but if an innocent bystander were to peek into our writing spaces, they would see a teenager on a laptop (or notebook. Or even phone, I won’t judge.). Just one teenager. But…[Read more]

@dekreel *sobs* I forgot to tag you! (See above) and @sam-kowal too.
(Praying for you Dekreel. I know this sort of thing can be tough to go through. *sends encouraging hugs, chocolate and…uh…glitter and feathers your way*

Do you know what? I love you guys so so much.
I’ve just got back from my brief hiatus and I’m catching up on everything that’s happened while I’ve been away and I’m literally sitting here and thanking God that he directed me here over a year ago.
The fact is, as awesome as the meme threads and the writers corner and the advice we give each other…[Read more]

@alia Coolio. So, who’s been ruling in the royal family’s place?

@gh24682468999Â @dekreel I guess the excuse “I’m doing research” only gets us so far. XD

Piggybacking on what @daughteroftheking said:
You know you are a writer when you wish there was a way to test if a knife or sword is actually stained red after someone stabs somebody… without hurting someone.

NC Stokes replied to the topic Pen Names in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@jenwriter17 I chose to use a pen name, simply because I don’t want my real name circulating around on the interweb. 🙂 I’ve never published anything, though. If I do, I will use my pen name. For now, I just use it on writerish websites like this one.

Jenna Terese replied to the topic Pen Names in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@ariel-ashira yes I was thinking of just using my first and middle name on my blog and everything. What if my books just had my initials on it? Do authors do that?

Good thing I skipped town before @alia finished reading 😛 (and yes, that is treason. I could have you.. deprived of…raspberries. ..actually royal decree. I like blackberries better than raspberries).
@rochellaine Thanks for holding the fort while I learnt how to be a good queen (I’m back by the way). And Bobert arrived safely too. *pats…[Read more]

@rochellaine I don’t think I’d be able to do it; I don’t think it would sound as good and professional 😉 also I’m really busy with life stuff and writing deadlines. If you still end up finishing it yourself, you don’t have to rush 🙂

@alia Maybe…
No, seriously, you thought that too? That’s funny.

PrincessFoo replied to the topic Fairytale Reteling in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 3 months ago
@alia Maybe Rumple heard that the royal family woke up and went to “return” the girl (though that doesn’t seem like the right word after raising her for 17 years) to the castle and they arrested them there. Then the girl has to sneak away from the royal family to prove Rumple’s innocence.
While I was thinking this through, I thought of two…[Read more]

@alia Maybe the witch is trying to hunt them down, but Rumple and the girl live in a small town and/or in the middle of no where and keep to themselves, and she just hasn’t been able to find them?

Wow. That was pretty inspiring.

Joy replied to the topic Pen Names in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@jenwriter17Â I suppose it depends on how much you want to protect your identity. Personally, I use a pen name because my real name isn’t common in the USA, so it would be easy to search for on the internet, therefore, more prone to people nosing about my personal information.
But I don’t know how rare your name is. *grins*
That’s all I got. 🙂

Hi, all! As some of you may know, I’m planning on self-publishing a novella late summer. I’ve been figuring out self-publishing and marketing and I’ve begun rewriting the little beast, but one question arises; do I need a pen name? my parents want to kind of keep me protected, and though having my real name on my published book has been a dream of…[Read more]

You know you’re a writer when you go into the backyard to wave a stick around aggressively, pretending to fight wolves and whatnot. One of my characters fights with a staff. It’s RESERCH. I’m being PROFESSIONAL. Not just having way too much fun. RESERCH, I tell you.
