Present tense first person is definitely special, haha. I 100% get it why a bunch of people would dislike it. But it can work really well in the story it’s in cause I don’t even notice it anymore once I’m past the first page now.

Also I am the only one here who disliked Percy Jackson? *hides*

@daisy-torres Me too. It definitely depends on my mood. :p Thank you! I’m excited to work on it, whenever that may happen. I’m totally in love with Tàe XD

@e-k-seaver 😉

@nanisnook Of course! And it’ll also save you more work – if you go in and write the ideas now, then you can write fluidly about those same ideas as the story goes on. 🙂

@scripter-of-kingdoms

That’s totally true. I would feel so bad if I forgot something! Thanks for the advice!!

@daisy-torres

Yes, I have definitely been noticing that KP is good at that…. I hadn’t even thought about a lopsided draft, so that’s super good to remember. And thanks for the advice about the word count! Very helpful…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I know I’m late to this topic, but it seems really funny, so I’ll join in XD

So. Three characters from my series!

1. Tàe – a fiercely introverted, very shy elf. He’s very sentimental and loving, though. Strangely, he has no mana (mana is power granted to the faerie races by God for defense and healing). He’d probably be, in…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Hmm… I haven’t really gotten a lot of critiques on my writing. But sometimes people tell me that my themes are heavy, and I’m like “wait, really?” I mean, my series has a rather lighthearted tone to it, in my opinion (lots of funny things sprinkled in and lots of action) but is it really that heavy? So I guess I’m just working with…[Read more]

@lydia-s Thanks very much!

@lydia-s she sounds really intetesting!  I totally understand having your villain as your favorite character lol.  One of my favorites is a villain.  I just feel so sad for him 🙁

HELLO EVERYONE, I HAVE RETURNED, AND I COME BEARING A GRAPHIC. 

Here’s Yin Meichen from Y&Y, y’all!

@keilah-h Oh, haha no he’s real XD Thanks! Jungkook is a member of my favourite band! <3 He turned 24 yesterday 🙂

@maryg3 Okay! Will do

Ugh, the forum balrog ate my reply when I tried to edit it, so reposting.

I would like to pitch in with a few things here.

Do not let all of your characters meet each other in the same room. Only three out of more than twenty characters speak English, and like at least ten of them haven’t even SEEN the real world before. Thus, this will result…[Read more]

Oh man. I would like to pitch in with a few things here.

Do not let all of your characters meet each other in the same room. Only three out of more than twenty characters speak English, and like at least ten of them haven’t even SEEN the real world before. Thus, this will result in:

– All characters out of The Travelers’ Caravan being amazed at…[Read more]

@maryg3

Do you want me to share comments on here or by email?

@nanisnook

I, personally, would go back and add those things. You don’t want to forget about it and not add it in! So ngl I’d prob just do that.

Also, it is 100% okay for chapters to be different lengths. My chapters range from 6 or 7 pages to more than like twelve sometimes. It’s totally fine! 🙂 Every author writes differently!

@maryg3

Ooh I want to read it!! I think I can get it done by Friday. I love your title by the way. My email is nanisnook@att.net

@sparrowhawke Ah yes, it seems it was eaten by the Forum Balrog. 🙁 But I was able to see it on your profile, so fear not! 😉

Heyy, thanks! Haha. Oh, actually, it’s short for Kadotake, which was one of my former aliases! But my close friends on here nicknamed me Kads. XD It fits me better, imo!

Ooooh, all of those sound super interesting!! The…[Read more]

@calidris aww, thank you so much!! haha. <33 Thank you! I spent a while on it XD *mutters* glad someone else finally understands the importance of shading

Ah, BTS is my fave band. They’re so good, I definitely recommend them! I haven’t really listened to any other kpop artists, but I’ve heard good things about IU, BLACKPINK, TXT, TWICE, Seven…[Read more]
