Fantasy sounds right. If it’s more along a realistic trail like Rangers apprentice, I suppose it might be midieval fantasy.(prolly my fave genre)

How you’ve described is pretty much how I construct my book too! Usually when I’m thinking of scenes, I kind of let them roll around in my head for a bit then slap them on some paper.…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel

No worries! Thank you for your input, I always appreciate hearing other people’s advice about this issue, since it is something I struggle with more often than I like. With relatively small short stories, I’m fine with restarting them, since a thousand or so words is not as big of a commitment to me as a novel is. But I…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

True, villains and antagonists don’t always need to be in a story. I’m usually writing some kind of story where they’re like, far away, so they don’t always show up in the main story (you know, like a Sauron kinda thing), so I always feel like I have to find ways to have them interact with the protagonist. But…I don’t always need…[Read more]

@lydia-s so sorry for the late reply! And thank you so much for your advice, I’ll definitely keep it in mind next time I’m faced with something like this. I ended up trying to rewrite it a couple times and on about the third try, I got something I really liked! So I’ve finished that short story now 😁

@trahia-the-minstrel Oh good, thanks! And I’m 21 😁

Alright, alright, I’ll ask some…[Read more]

@lorelei-writer

So cool! A synopsis would be much appreciated, I enjoy hearing about other people’s works! 🙂

Yep, pretty much same. Ever since I thought to myself that I could write stories like the ones I was reading, I’ve been trying to tell stories XD

@trahia-the-minstrel That’s so cool! We might have the same ocarina! And Song of Storms is such a beautiful one to play. I love Song of Time too!

I love the inspirations for your story. The novel I’m planning to write is about a girl who has to save her country from an invading army, but this WIP is still in the very beginning stages of planning…[Read more]

@lydia-s

Oooooo what a fun idea!!!!!!! (Also, I just LOVE LOVE LOVE your quotes!!!!!!!!)

Alrighty, here’s mine. It’s for my character Keenum in my YA fantasy novel, Heir to His Crown.

If you’re waiting for my blessing, then all I have to say is pray your death comes soon. Then the world would be very blessed indeed.

I’d never ask for mercy fro…

@seekerofthetruth

Oooooo, I’m glad you asked!!! Honestly, the first thing I would do is give the character internal questions. Like, if the character is worried about something, show the reader he/she asking the question to him/herself. Like how @scoutfinch180 did in the first two examples Scoutillus gave. Inner monologue can really go a long…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

AAAAHHH, girl, I LOOOOOVE these quotes you’ve shared!!!!! Especially that impossible one. It’s actually one of my all-time favs!!!! Will definitely try to check back here. 🙂

WELCOME TO THE KINGDOM!!!!!!!!!! *waves excitedly and gives you welcome chocolate* We’re SO excited to have you here!! I’m Issabelle Perry, the quirky teen author who overuses exclamation marks, obsessives over Lord of the Rings and The False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen, and is an unashamed  Skillet fan. First off, LOVE the…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

Hahaha, that’s funny you should mention that about the antagonist thing cuz my sister and I were just talking recently about how villains are actually not something you have to put in your writing and how even things like nature can be an “antagonist” in stories, like survival fiction!

Anyway, for me, it was long, thorough…[Read more]

@lorelei-writer

*gasp* IS THAT LORELEI I SEE?????!!!!!!!!!!!!! *waves excitedly* Heya, girl!!! SO awesome to see you here!!!! *sends welcome chocolate*

@lorelei-writer Hellooo! Welcome! I’m Jodi, and I write a bunch of things, usually fantasy or dystopia these days depending on my mood XD

Some questions:

Do you have a WIP you’re currently working on?

What inspired you to start writing? I’ve always loved fantasy books, which is how I ended up writing so much of it…

Anyway, nice to meet…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel Welcome!! I’m Jodi, and I’m a huge LOTR, Marvel, ATLA, and Zelda fan too (and Mario, and a bunch of other video games…)!

I’m so happy to meet more people who have ocarinas (@scripter-of-kingdoms I didn’t know you had one too)! I have a small collection of ocarinas and I used to perform at local markets with them XD my fav…[Read more]

Considering that was my answer, and how many times today I was used by a two-year-old as a human snot rag, that should give you an idea of what my swag looks like at the moment.
