This is one of my favorite threads. And @epicaddie2, that is definitely what I look like right before a plot twist. 😉

@ariel-ashira Here you go! 🙂 https://storyembers.org/resources/

@gh24682468999 I use a character questionnaire sheet I made up that used to be on KP and is currently on the Story Embers site. For me, a lot of a character has to do with asking enough questions about them to boil them down to three central qualities about who they are as a person. Once I have a set core for the character, it’s easier for me to…[Read more]

@dekreel That presumes I have a Pinterest account. 😛

@rochellaine This is why I don’t let @the-real-kapeefer beta-read my novels.

@dragon-snapper Accurate ending. xD

Thanks @dekreel. 🙂 Know that I assumed that sentiment behind those words even if you never directly said them. It’s been a blast to shoot those videos with the siblings.

@aislinn-mollisong It’s been an honor to be the editor-in-chief here. Thanks. 🙂

@corissa-maiden-of-praise Aww; thanks. 🙂 I appreciate it a lot. You all are the bestisest people on the bestisest place on the internet. That Ecclesiastes passage is a very relevant passage for me during this time!

@daughteroftheking Yeah; I’ll still be around the forum (especially when tagged), but there’s going to be some new people taking on…[Read more]

@dekreel Classic.

@jenwriter17 Yeah. I think it’s the “Worst Allegory Ever” video.

@ethryndal Looks like you’ve already gotten some great answers here! In my opinion, this is natural.

@that_writer_girl_99 Seems hard to believe it’s only been a year. Feels like you’ve been a part of this for much longer than that. 🙂

Step #1: Post the FB page link here so we can follow you. 😀

Step #2: Make sure it’s linked on your blog, and possibly include a link to it in your welcome email sequence for new subscribers (assuming you have a mailing list).

Step #3: My personal approach has been to be posting writing or reading related statuses 4-5 days a week, and then as…[Read more]

@ariella-newheart Accurate.

@dekreel Ok; not going to lie, that last pic of me kind of creeps me out…

@rochellaine Haha; I was worried for a moment that I should have recognized your name on here long ago. xD No; you’re fine. I remember who you are now, and I remember enjoying talking to you since there weren’t a bunch of people who stopped by the booth for extended periods of time at CHAP. Glad to know you ended up making it over to the forum. 🙂

@dekreel Wow; well, I got to say you captured the standard opening thread replies and what I do when meeting newbies on the forum. xD

@rochellaine Were you one of the people I met at the CHAP conference last summer? Trying to remember when and where we met since I’m terrible with names. 😛

@mnvalentine @kaya-young Sweet! Send me an email (josiah@josiahdegraaf.com) and I’ll send you a link to the scripts. 🙂

@daeus Sending you the link, friend. Thanks muchly. 😀

@anne-of-lothlorien Wow; that’s perfect.
