Wow cool! 😀

@notawriter There was actually another story I wrote that had quite a bit to do with the Danes, and I bought an edition of the Danish history. There was a lot of interesting things I read in that. Combining history and what is written in epic sagas (such as Beowolf, which I actually enjoyed) was interesting and quite fun. There was quite a bit of…[Read more]

I love how writing forces you to learn new things!

But then since they are for stuff you are choosing to write, its usually something you would find interesting. (Of course sometimes you gotta learn loads of boring stuff.. *yawns*)

@jenwriter17
Ahahaha. If I ‘like’ starwars.

Oh jen, I adore starwars! 😀 Once again I knew it was coming but I didn’t realize so soon!
(I suppose May isn’t super soon though haha.)

@notawriter I do have part of her character arc planned out. It’s kinda different from what I’m used to. I do know that people with amnesia often have a change of personality and likes, and writing that while having people know her as she is now and others knowing how she was before is throwing me for a wee bit of a loop.

Turns out this story…[Read more]

Whoohoo! Congrats!!
Unfortunately I have zero experience with blogging so I don’t have any tips for you. The ones that dragon snapper suggested sound legit though! 😀
Oh yeah, Thanks for the chocolate! <3

@skredder
Are you familiar with character arcs? Because having one of those might help you figure out where your character is and where they are going 🙂
Also with all this talk about amnesia I would suggest doing some research on the topic! Though maybe you already have?

There. I put you on my blog list. 😁

@skredder
Ew ikr who even likes throw up green?? (I know almost exactly what color you are talking about)
I used to love pastels but recently I’ve found that i’m much more drawn to darker, but deep and rich   colors. Like jewel tones maybe? I realized I think I liked pastels because I hated overly saturated colors   and neons (Still do act…[Read more]

@radically-surrendered I would be laughing so hard right now. XD I just made a blog, and the title of the post is New Blog on the Block. Hahahahahaha! 😀 New Blog on the Block

Great blog! It’s so pretty! 😉

I’m taking all that chocolate.

So, my basic tips of what’s worked for me so far equals the following.

• follow other blogs. The blog on my…

@skredder I’m sure you’ll be able to do it without copying.  Something I was thinking about was the fact that the Vikings captured people from several other nations besides Ireland.  I read a G.A. Henty book about that, called The Dragon and the Raven.  It was very interesting, and dealt with the Vikings and their culture, but the hero was Bri…[Read more]

@notawriter Some of my favorite shades of green are hunter and lincoln green. Mostly I really like the deep, rich shades of green. My lesser liked shades of green include neon green, pastel green, olive green, and throw-up green.

Now, on to the story. When I was little, and I mean about three or four, I liked green. If someone were to ask me my…[Read more]

@mnvalentine Welcome to the site! That’s an amazing rank idea. xD I’d be tempted to add it except no one would ever see it if I did… or maybe I <i>have</i> already added that rank and nobody else knows… *grins mysteriously*

Anyways, great to see another Austen fan and fantasy novelist on the site. How far are you with your current novel? Are…[Read more]

@notawriter Yes, I can’t wait! And if you like Star Wars, there’s a Han Solo movie coming out in May (I keep myself informed about these things😉)

@aislinn-mollisong An idea struck me last night. What if there was a place, maybe a baron’s land or something similar, where dragons are forbidden?

@graciegirl Hi! *is probably waving at the computer* I tend to write fantasy stories and either historical fiction or modern stories with a whole bunch of history thrown in (let me tell you, writing a story about Scandinavian history before things were recorded and having to rely on accounts written down hundreds of years later is somewhat…[Read more]

@rochellaine Oh wow! Those are awesome and definitely fun to read! And since they are poems there was no way that I couldn’t read them aloud. 🙂

That’s not easily done. 😀
