@skredder Oh okay. But still, I really liked it! Maybe you could try publishing your book on KP? (Wow. I say that to a lot of people.

@gh24682468999 Agreed…I can safely say that Tug and Abelard (Arbelard? How do you spell it again… 😅) plus Sable are my favorite characters. And maybe Will, Evanlyn, and Horace! Hmm… interesting!

@dekreel @clairec @rochellaine @winter-rose @daeus I’m writing for a bit–although I’ll be a bit distracted because I’m watching the dogs…

WOOF!

@daeus Indeed. 😛

@jenwriter17 Ooohhh… Those are awesome.

Here’s a few I made for Sector One –

@dekreel (Here are some of those collages… I’m going to wait a bit before I post them on my blog though, because I haven’t introduced my novel on there yet. XD)

@daeus 😀 Thanks. They are harder than they look

Thanks for those revision suggestions, too. The last one especially is helpful since it highlights that the dwarves are more experienced with exosuit building, which they are but that was slightly unclear in the first version.

You know you’re a writer when you type out Douglas Macauthor instead of Douglas Macarthur on quizlet and end up getting it wrong. Multiple times. Ugh.

@notawriter Thank you! I’m glad you liked it!

At the risk of spoilers, it is research Casse had conducted to discover about the guards. It has something to do with her current probation. 😉

@jenwriter17 Actually, I’ve never read any of those. If you read them, let us know if they were good:D

And no, I’m not on Goodreads. I do get quotes from authors there, though

@jenwriter17 She looks very interesting!  Is she on the good or bad side?

@clairec thanks for letting us know! I’m actually signed up for Weiland’s newsletter, so I got an email today about this. I haven’t decided if I’m gonna sign up yet…

I posted some character collages if anyone wants to see

Here’s another protagonist collage: Uma, a robot girl

hey everyone! I just bought three new books and I plan on reading them soon. I wanted to see if anyone of you had read any of these, and if so, I would appreciate any warnings of questionable content. Here they are:

Defier, by Mandy Fender

Swipe, by Evan Angler

Last Light, by Terri Blackstock

btw, is anyone on Goodreads?

@jane-maree @mariposa…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollisong That’s exactly what happens to me if someone asks more questions after I say “oh it has some horses in it. kinda mysterious thing going on.”

@dekreel Hmm… good question.
I think a motif is an element that occurs over and over in the story and sort of meant to become part of the story’s theme, whereas a symbol is simply there to represent something. And the theme is the topic your story is focused upon.
So a story’s theme might be forgiveness, and it contains a symbol of forgiveness…[Read more]

@skredder

I really liked it! The only thing I want to point out is that in this sentence
“From past “research”, Cassandra knew that there were always two night-guards standing by the single-person door that lead to the woods, along with at least six guards at all times watching the main gate into the castle”

Maybe the word you want is …[Read more]

@dekreel I think what the article said was that a symbol is something that is seen only a few times as an overreaching message, and a motif is something that is interwoven with the whole story.  In my mind I likened the motif to a knight’s coat of arms, which would be seen on everything, (shields, clothes, furniture, flags,) and the symbol to the…[Read more]

@dekreel Yeah, I guess I could do that, but I still think grammar wouldn’t be considered important enough, since you can probably google a lot of it.  Usually KP likes to publish more general things that are just ideas.  Daeus did do an article on sword fighting once, but even that is more complicated than a little grammar.

@rochellaine  Yyyyesssss… But they’re both technically symbolic objects that represent something. How does one tell the difference?
