Those are all really great suggestions! Thank you for your help. I was wondering how to approach writing a scene where the children encounter a dwarf like being that shows them an exit out of the ice, an extremely small hole with no light. But Jude still needs to conquer his fear of tight spaces. I’m just not really sure how to go about it. Seeing…[Read more]

Chapter 1
Jude stared out the window of his family’s small four-room house, he could see the cold that covered his whole world. They lived in a city trapped beneath a solid sheet of thick ice. Everything was coated in ice. The houses provided a bit of warmth but most of the time he was shivering. Even after living on the ice his entire life, Ju…[Read more]

Thank you everyone! I feel like I have a bit of a better idea of what to do now.

I have a book that I’m working on and I feel like naming instead of numbering the chapters fits the feel of the story more than previous things that I’ve written. Any suggestions or tips on naming chapters would be amazing!

I love the whole story. The way you present it, your writing style, your vocabulary, it is amazing! Got to say that I am genuinely curious and need to know more about Raven. Does she make it to the healer? Does the healer even have what she needs?
Keep writing! Hope that you do something with your story later. This is good and needs to be shared!

The Boy and His Dragon
The two children didn’t know what to do as the night wore on and the suns began to sink below the horizon. Gilbert said it would be best to look for water and proceed to do so with his sister following close behind as they took off running into the never ending expanse. Hill after hill rolled after each other and t…[Read more]

Also, Felicity is in fact 13 and her brother is 15. The world does have more to it, including some strange creatures and dragons.

No, the story has an internal conflict (Felicity’s own problems that she is grappling with) and an external conflict. Both of which widen as the story goes on. Towards the end of this first book I start to develop this character even more and show things that caused her to act out as she did in the first chapter. I actually did want the reader to…[Read more]

Hi, Min. I think that my favorite thing to write would be science fiction, mostly my own made up worlds.
And some of my favorite themes to write about is finding courage in hard, difficult times just because that is something I feel like I need an abundance of and love to encourage people.
Lastly, I’m not a huge fan of holding snakes but I do…[Read more]

The Opening
Down the lane from a little lakeside American town, a farmer and his wife settled into a little cottage perched elegantly atop the hill. It stood in view for all that travel the long winding road. Nobody in that little town could guess how far that road went or where it ended, but then again nobody cared to know but for the…[Read more]
