The moonlight shone in through the kitchen window, sending shadows skittering across the tile floor. I pushed up the tablecloth that was draped over my hideout – kitchen tables are very useful peices of furniture – and peeked into the dark recess of the pantry for the umpteenth time. The double-sided tape, chipotle pepper, mousetraps, and frying…

Wow, I love that!  The dancing was really good!!  I’m super impressed, there’s no way I could do that XDDD

@jodi-maile

Welp, I’m very late to the party, but I thought I’d pop in anyway.

I think that when things like what you’re experiencing happen, drafts show their beauty. 🙂 I know with every draft of my novels/short stories, they become better. Perhaps if you tried finishing the story, taking a bit of a break, and then diving in again, you’d…[Read more]

@mkfairygirl

AGHHHH, CONGRATS!!!!!!!!! XD *throws confetti and squeals with you* So happy for y’all! <333

@calidris

Yeah, I like birds! I don’t watch them or anything, but I enjoy learning about them. I used the chickadee’s “Fee-bee” call in one of my school papers. It’s so fun how it can be interpreted to mean the name “Phoebe;” perfect fuel for a writer. 😉

Aww, thanks! 😀

Ooo… That sounds amazing!!! I love the idea of writing in some of the “pu…[Read more]

I am pretty much going to echo what a lot of the other gals said! Honestly, I simply decide based on if I have more stories to tell. For my romances, there is only going to be one book. I don’t have enough material to stretch it out any longer. My fantasy world is the opposite. Right now, I’m at five novel ideas (one in the pro…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

for me, I had more than one unanswered question that needed to be answered at the end of the story, I was happy with my suspenseful ending, and I wanted to make a series, because I have a whole world dreamed out and I have to write it down

I think if you can put it comfortably in one book, do it, if you can’t, then maybe write a…[Read more]

@daisy-torres aw she did great!!! i shared it on FB, it’s a wonderful song. Great job!!

@mkfairygirl EEEEEE just bought the paperback!! Congrats girl!

@calidris

Ah, yes, the methods of the Shrike… They’re a bit startling coming from a creature that appears so harmless. Did you choose that pseudonym for your villain based off of our villains personality/characteristics?

Aww, thx! Yeah, that is sad. Dragons are so cool!

Well, it’s a bit like medieval fantasy in regards to the weapons and armor…[Read more]

@jodie-maile oof I almost never end up keeping my original ideas in a story, everything changes constantly until I write one I like, but everything plays like a movie scene in my head, so if I don’t like the scene, ‘cut!’ Lol

If I have to stick to something,  then once I realize I don’t like it, I leave it alone for a bit, an hour, a day even,…[Read more]

@morgan aw thanks 🙂

@kathleenramm well most of my characters are based off real people that I either know really well or have observed, and I recognize people by their voices and I guess I note how they talk. I’m weird hahaha

Also, after that, I write how I think, so it seems to work well.

Idk if that made sense haha, but that’s the best I can explain…[Read more]

“Did you really think that you could keep this from Mirabelle forever? When we met that night-”

“WHY ARE YOU HERE You were never suppose to come back, you had all the chipotle you could ask for!

@jodi-maile ooooo the each writing charries so the voices are different! soomeone else who did that!! I am doing that co-writing a book with my bestie!!! She’s taking one, and I’m taking the other, and then we have one we sort of do together. it’s so fun, and works well since all three are very different lives, cultures, and thinking.

well, people! I think for now I have enough readers, but if I do end up needing more I’ll post another topic. 🙂 thanks guys!

@kathleenramm Ooo I like the sound of your story! Five POV must be so fun to develop each voice, make them seem more real.

with a rare exception, I can’t bear to do stories in 1 POV. I like the torture of the reader too much hehehe

with pretty much every one of my stories I have 3 main POV that I go between, and with each book I might change one…[Read more]

@calidris ok, sounds good!
