@joy-caroline That music is epic! I’m in a bit of writer’s block right now, but maybe that will help. Fingers crossed…

@godlyfantasy12

This guy sounds fascinating!  His backstory is awesome, and he sounds like a genuine character.  For likeability, you could:

1)  Give the MC and Ridley something in common (a hobby, a genre of music, a favorite food, etc)

2)  like @elfwing said, moments of vulnerability.  That would make the reader open up to him really fast…[Read more]

sorry it keeps eating my reply, so if you get like, five responses you can blame the website i guess? XD

@godlyfantasy12 well… it’s good from what you’ve described and I agree with @gracie-j

Anyways, I’m no expert by any means, but here are things I’ve used for my antagonist

(So maybe have scenes with him being open with Jocelyn at…[Read more]

@scoutfinch180 Hi! Thanks for the input. I’ll see how I can improve it for sure! 🙂 I’m not really into emotional scenes of this kind but these two have a special relationship, so I wanted to add it. And this is the first draft which is why there may be repeating words, and thank you for mentioning that as I sometimes forget that kind of stuff X…[Read more]

It was an indie book called How We Rise by Brooke Riley. It was amazing. I could talk about it all day! The characters were so lovable and relatable. The world was the perfect blend of contemporary and dystopian that you feel at home but also horrified (the best way to explain it). The plot is both chill and thrilling (much like the world). I just…[Read more]

Oh, that’s so cool! I wished I owned them! I read them originally from the library. I would love to my own copies because it is my childhood favourite series! 🙂 Hehe, I took advantage of that. XD

@kathleenramm oh man good question! I haven’t actually sat down and read a book in months. I’ve been busy with moving across the country and renos and now moving again XD

I’ve listened through the Hobbit and LOTR several times in the last year in audiobook. The last book I actually held in my hands and read was Children of Hurin. Man, that is a…[Read more]

@gracie-j ok! good to know XD, thanks!

@imwritehere1920

haha Thank you. No, I wish I did. It’s just a cool pic I found on Pinterest. Not quite on that level yet.

@gracie-j yeah I’d say it is KP because that’s happening to me tooat first it scared me because I thought maybe my computer had a virus or something, XD but I tried my phone and it did the same thing 

@gracie-j ok, yeah it wouldn’t let me respond for almost half an hour , then it finally loaded the response box 😂

my wifi is fine, it might be my account?

@akbaer

Sorry for the late reply!

Aww, thank you.

Ohhh, I haven’t heard of The Endling or The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle. I should look them up and probably add them to my TBR. 🙂 The Hobbit is a great book! I’ve only read the first book for both The Hunger Games and Harry Potter but I really enjoy them so I hope to read the rest…[Read more]

@gracie-j
Thanks! By the way am I the only one having trouble loading the page??? It’s been acting weird today. Wouldn’t load the website and errors and stuff…
