Oh I read them! I’m interested to know where this is going!
Pls take the following with a very large grain of salt, it’s just thoughts and I have no idea where the series is going. You as the author knows best 😀 !!
It felt a little rushed how everything happened, but I mean it is only a first draft. In the scene with Ami and Ev…[Read more]

XD correct tags for the win!
Yes, Derek is the silver/grey one that’s rolling his eyes in the picture. Or at least that’s what he’s supposed to be doing.

If your personality fit that of an animal, what animal would you be?
Teilo: I wouldn’t know, animals are jerks… *flashbacks of terrible animal experiences*
Derek: …and you’re not?
Teilo: Excuse me?

Thank you for the ideas! I like Ocean, Caleb, and Maverick.
Most writers probably don’t give more than a few days’ thought about names… I’ve always been super picky XD I think it’s because I have grapheme-color synesthesia, so whenever I create a character, the name has to be juuuuuust the right colors… or I don’t like…[Read more]

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic Pretty Prose, Please! in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 7 months ago
oh good question!
if it’s a large transition in location, I would put it in between chapters. then you dont have to say, “they arrived at the park” you would just start off the chapter with “Ami looked around at the park (describe lighting/colors)”
I recently realized how important lighting is in descriptions. I think I realized this…[Read more]

Oof. I also have difficulties with this. (I think every author does at some point.)
I’ll just echo @booksbyjayna and say keep writing and study the authors you want to emulate. I’ve seen it work and will definitely be personally implementing it as much as I can.
(After all, it’s another excuse to read Prince Caspian again…)

@princesachronicle22 Are Mayvee and your royal characters still in this group?
@godlyfantasy12 I don’t think I’ve ever told you this, but I love the name Dolunay @esther-c XD but it’s more fun that he doesn’t XD
Aaaand I’m gonna go ahead and apologize for Derek’s thoughts towards your characters. He’s very suspicious of people and judge-y and…[Read more]

Enid replied to the topic Character names, personalities etc ! in the forum Characters 3 years, 7 months ago
Oh, I need a name! Anyone have suggestions??
I’m not certain if this character will end up in the story (they might just be canon in my mind XD), but I have a fictional family that might need an addition. Meaning, a baby. Not even sure if I want a boy or a girl, but I feel like if I got the right name, the rest would fall into place. Here are the…[Read more]

Cool! I like how Shauna and Jean are similar in some ways, and yet super different in others.
Some of characters on my mind right now are:
#1 – Anna. A small, delicate girl of eleven years. Her face is encircled by neat brown curls – petals around a chrysanthemum. She wears a thick coat made out of faded squares of cloth. She is quiet and…[Read more]

XD Sorry for not correcting you earlier. I’ve been getting your RPs anyways cause I’ve subscribed to the Character Castle though, so don’t worry about that. I wondered if you were confused, but…eh, I overthinked it and so didn’t ask. My bad.

Gwyndalf the Wise replied to the topic Character Castle! in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 7 months ago
I’m on! I’m working on the RP for our group
Oh no! XD My CWW name has you confused with my KP name…Maybe it’s cause I have the same profile picture?
LUCA WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? XDMy KP tag is Gwyndalf the Wise, not Gwyneth Wise like CWW.

Gwyndalf the Wise replied to the topic Pretty Prose, Please! in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 7 months ago
Oof, wish I could help. XD
I’m really bad at writing transitions from descriptions to actions. Or thoughts to actions in writing format. (the Character Castle being the exception, but that’s not how you write transitions in books…) And I’m bad at writing descriptions anyways. This is actually one of the reasons I’m making my story a…[Read more]

I have an idea! So basically keep a journal with you (which I already do, but never use 😐) and whenever you’re sitting somewhere doing nothing describe the area around you. Just practice writing descriptions a lot. Maybe you can describe how you got there to practice transitions. So yeah! An idea😁👍
(I want to do this…

Dante
“I think we should go somewhere with water.” Serin said.
Dante glanced up at her. She needed water already? She had just been in the freezing cold rain a few minutes ago. Then he thought about her blue skin. Maybe she was aquatic. Had she said something about that before?

Well… I have pretty much the same problem, so I’ll just wait here for everyone’s advice 😅🤣

Hehe I have so many characters so I’m answering this question a second time.
What is your charries weirdest fear or what are their phobias?
Ellie: Interacting with children scares me… also just interacting with people in general.
Eddie: I’m scared of wind beetles, an insect from our home planet. They’re harmless, but they glide around on the win…[Read more]
