Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic Cover Art Sharing Space/Critique in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 8 months ago
So…. Just to clarify, you and your twin can’t feel when the other is pain? Cause I’ve heard of that being able to happen. (The twins in one of my WIP are identical, boy-boy, and the twins in the other WIP are fraternal boy-girl. Did I mention I have a thing for writing multiple birth characters?😅)
But, when it comes to twins, can you f…[Read more]

Do you guys mind if I jump in? Sorry I haven’t been super active on the forum recently, and may not have replied to anything you said. I’ve been taking a huge break from things over the Christmas/New Years holidays.

I know exactly what you mean. My current WIP, The Prince of WalfKlau(working title) was originally intended to be my first-ever standalone. Ha.
Ha.
Ha.😂
I quickly realised I’d never be able to tell such an epic story in one book, and it quickly turned into a trilogy in my mind. I then wrote 94 chapters — yes, you read that rig…[Read more]

Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic Put Your Topic of the Week Ideas HERE! in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 8 months ago
I think a cool topic of the week would be “What is your favourite character type/character relationship type?” Like the ‘Mentor’ or the ‘Young Knight’ or the ‘Brother-brother duo, etc. Things like that. In my WIP, I have a ‘tactician,’ a ‘minstrel,’ a ‘peasant-raised prince,’ a ‘usurper,’ a ‘best-friend duo,’ a ‘pair of…[Read more]

@annabelle well everyone has different genres they do best. I can’t write much besides fantasy novels that are a gazillion pages in rough draft, and little allegorical short stories lol.
Hahah yeah we are evil though, you have to be if you’re gonna write sometimes. I’m so cruel,

I know, it’s awful. If I don’t cry while writing his trial and/or *cough* (spoiler emitted for the benefit of the blissfully unaware few 😉 ) scene…. I don’t think that particular scene will ever make it into the book outside of flashbacks from Winifrith and possibly William. I don’t know. It sorta happens in between two books,…[Read more]

If any School-Papers come a squelching I’ll be ready!
I will remember that. XD
There is waayyy too much literature that isn’t literature in YA fic. We need more good books!
Thank you! Those are my absolute favorite themes EVER. You have to publish your books soon, cause I would definitely like to…[Read more]

Jaybird replied to the topic I'm giving you permission to rant about your WIP in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 8 months ago
Hmm, there has to be conflict between the characters? I don’t think my one little romantic sub plot passes. 😉
But since it’s based of a few real love stories, it’s not exactly the super dramatic thing, and therefore while it plays a major role, I would not call the series a romance saga. It’s more like what you’d find in Men of Iron,…[Read more]

Researching randomness way back before the arbalester and the handgunn made armor pointless is a joy, and may it never be squelched by school research papers! XD

That makes it easier. Sort of. You see, I have read books where a set of twins have grown up together, and are close, but when the author killed one he/she cried for like a couple days and was absolutely FINE! That makes no sense for friends let alone twins or siblings! They should have been crushed, permanently changed, grieving. Real…[Read more]

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic My Series Keeps Growing! in the forum Fantasy 4 years, 8 months ago
To be honest, I’ve never totally gone through this problem. At one time when I first started writing, I did a little bit but I never stuck with a story long enough that it mattered. XD My current series, The Heir Saga, is probably the one book I am the most in love with and is closest to my heart, but after the end of book…[Read more]

@annabelle ooo cool! mwahahahah that’ll be interesting… I have twins in my story in last couple books, and i close to kill kill them both a few times while theyre on opposite sides of the world.

YOU’RE KILLING OFF HER TWIN!!! (From a twin)
Ok, that’s going to be hard to write. A quick question; are you familiar with twins/know real life twins?

WFR sounds like an amazing book!
A few things I love about my books;
The themes good/evil, sacrifice, redemption, trusting God even with death, and His presence even in the worst of storms, how a good God can allow bad things to happen, faith even when it seems useless, there is nothing that He can’t forgive. So, yeah, I have a…[Read more]
