@skredder Totally! Plus, I think it makes characters much more interesting when they don’t always do what’s right, or are even adverse to doing what’s right until the very end of the book. It makes me root for them more, and want them to change.
Btw, How do you put in the little line between your comment and your username? I can’t seem to figure…[Read more]

@sarah-anson Oh I didn’t know you read it! (or maybe I did but I forgot) 😀 Thank you so much for the feedback, I really appreciate it.
I just gave you access for chapter 6, and the other links should be earlier in this topic. 🙂 thank you!

Interesting idea, @skredder. I’ll try it out. Kirin is a great guy, but I really don’t want him to have “Hero Syndrome” (As in he does everything right just because it’s right.). And I also don’t want him to be an anti-hero, because it doesn’t fit. So he needs to have enough moral strength to do the right things sometimes, but he also needs to be…[Read more]

@skredder Stellar! I should be able to start reading it some time tonight 🙂 I think the pace you’re putting the links out is good, since I’m reading for Seekjustice too.

Hey @jenwriter17, sorry to bother you again, but would you mind giving me access to all the chapters you have up so far on your book? I requested access for chapter 6 and I’ve read chapter 1, but I can’t see the other ones(forgive me if it’s just something I’m overlooking in Docs, I don’t use them very often, xD). Anyway, happy writing! 🙂

Ah, I know I just did this, at least last time anyone was on this topic, but talking about my character’s most embarrassing moment was to good to pass up, @daughteroftheking, thanks for just an awesome question. Okay. Here we go.
Kirin: Kirin would rather talk about it, because every time he gets embarrassed it seems to be in front of a bunch of…[Read more]

Hello there Kapeefers! I’ve got an… issue with my main character.
He’s naive. And incredibly stubborn, very hardheaded, and just… kind of boring. I don’t even know why. He’s got pretty fleshed out motivations, hopes/dreams/wants/needs etc, but I just can’t get interested in him to actually sit down and write. I’ve been plotting and writing…[Read more]

Hey there @jenwriter! I read your first chapter, and I really enjoyed it. And I think I just sent a request to access the rest of the chapters… I’m not sure though. My google account doesn’t like me sometimes. 🙂
Anyways, I really liked the first chapter, and I’ve got a few thoughts if you don’t mind me sharing them.
First, I really liked how…[Read more]

By the way, sorry if I sounded a bit rude in my last post. Sometimes I just say exactly what I think. So sorry about that 🙂

No, I haven’t, but that sounds pretty cool! I like when you can do that sort of thing to a story!
They get older in the sequel, but I wouldn’t say that they were grown up. Well, the fact is, Curdie in the book is more mature than most twenty-year-olds. But still Irene is……..she’s never been my favourite character in the first p…[Read more]

When I read A Christmas Carol I was expecting a kind of cheesy Christmas story and it freaked me out. But I did like it a lot, so it wasn’t bad (I really don’t like cheesy Christmas stories).
I have found it. unfortunately, I’m stuck on the fact that an eight-year-old and a twelve-year-old are played by grown adults and yet still…[Read more]

You don’t like Dickens???? I liked Little Dorrit a lot. Its one of my favourites. I’ve still never read any of Twain.
No, not yet! I’ll go do it now 😀

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #16 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago
Little Dorrit is only the second greatest piece of Dickens ever (after ATOTC of course). It’s about a girl called Amy Dorrit and her father, who’s been imprisoned for debt for her whole life (I think 25 years or something). And there’s a guy called Arthur Clennam as well, who’s basically hopeless at most things, and yet we love him…[Read more]

No, the first time she heard it was when I was singing it, but since then I showed it to her.
And whoops, now I’m watching clips from the Little Dorrit tv show. 😛 Yes, the remake. I haven’t listened to or seen the new Beauty and the Beast movie, because I’m not into Disney, but I have heard some of the stage show, which has more…[Read more]

I have shown her the whole of that song, but she’s super stubborn and is always convinced she won’t like something until she actually does (it’s happened with all her favourite musicals, Newsies, Anastasia, Les Mis, ATOTC etc). She’s twelve (I think). My brothers are fifteen, nine and four.
It was coming along better until I started…[Read more]

I skipped all the dialogue on that track and I’m now listening to the song 🙁
Ah yes, I thought so 😀

Yes, its really nice! I’m twenty seconds into Position and Positioning now.
She’s only heard What a comforting Thing To Know and I think it makes her laugh but she really has no idea. 😀 I was singing it the other day (because once its in your head its not coming out any time soon) and she had no idea what I was going on…[Read more]
