@notawriter 🙂 *sits regally on @daeus ‘ throne and looks very wise*

@rochellaine That’s awesome! 😀 I love my sounding-boards.

@notawriter I agree with @skredder and @dragon-snapper about sounding boards. 🙂  Once I was brainstorming for a part of a book that I really didn’t want to write, but had to you know, because that was part of the story, but since I didn’t want to write it I couldn’t think of anything to write.  So I sat down with one of my sisters and told her t…[Read more]

@mnvalentine Ooh I didn’t even think about making a map.. That sounds hard though!
Hmm Maybe my plot elements would become clearer if my characters motivations were more defined.

@dragon-snapper  Whoa thankyou! I never knew you were such a wise dragon. *ponders your words*
Ill know who to ask if I run into any more problems! At this point I think I know what I need to do.. So I wont really have any more questions until I try. (and probably fail if we’re all being honest.) 😉

@ariel-ashira Oh no, don’t worry. You haven’t a…[Read more]

@notawriter Well, I begin by doing it in my head, then I start to write down those ideas all at once. Usually, it’s a big jumble of scenes, and I organize them later.
Oh goodness, all the time. I made the mistake a year ago by writing a trilogy without planning the whole thing out first. So a few months ago, I had two finished books, and…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Hmm.. So its almost like what Skredder said, only you kind of do it in your head? Interesting!
Do you ever get to a point where you’ve asked a question and you can’t figure out the answer though? Or what if you have two different answers that you have to choose between?

@kaymart I like the questions you brought up in this piece. About Ruth’s character. What might be in the shed, and what it was doing in there in the first place?
And what would happen to David? 😀
Definitely keep it up!

@notawriter Usually, I brainstorm just by building off that idea. Asking questions in my mind. Adding characters to a concept. Actually, most of it is imagining it as a movie, and what kind of plot twists build off of it. 😛

@skredder @seekjustice @daughteroftheking (Ill be praying for your other foot!)
Thanks so much!
I don’t know why i’m always so nervous to post. You guys are so sweet. 🙂

@skredder Wow it seems so simple but I never thought of doing that! I might just try that! Thanks!
Also forgive my ignorance … But what might a sounding board be? 🙂

@notawriter Wow! I just had this problem two days ago. What I did was take two major scene that I knew for sure and wrote one at the top and one at the bottom of a piece of paper. Then I went, with some help, and listed a few smaller events in between. Then I noticed where in the story there was stuff lacking and focused on figuring out what the…[Read more]

@catwing ooh well you’re in for a treat! It starts out a little slow.. And I was highly skeptical of the whole ‘pick the plot’ thing.. But James Riley knows his stuff. 😉 It gets sooo good! *giggles*
AAGH! I cannot STAND FOWEN! He made me SO ANGRY at the climax of Hidden chapters! *cries* He hurt my baby!! *cradles Owen*

@destiny  I’ve been keeping track of Aethasians who come here, yes. 🙂 I’m so glad you like it!

Great, I think your glitter drowned out all the fog in Aethasia. Well done. XD *sneezes*

@salome01w4g

I’ll definitely be praying for you *hugs*

@notawriter

I’ll be praying for you too *more hugs*

@alia

Congratulations on getting so far! I’ll be praying for your tests 😀

@daughteroftheking

I’d forgotten about that :/ but it’s good news!

@dekreel Who knows. It’s all wibbly wobbly timey wimey anyways. Anything could happen! 😀

@skredder  Thank you!

Good grief. Just how many more Whovians are there here that I don’t know about?!?! 😀 😀 😀

That just sounds really weird…

@dekreel This was awesome! I love it!! 😀

Bowties are cool. Stetsons are cool. Fezes are cool. For the record I’ve seen all of nine and eleven, and one episode of both ten and twelve. I like ten though. I’ve seen more clips for his stuff, so I am at least somewhat familiar with him.

Oh, and I did try fish fingers and custard (technically fish…[Read more]
