@power
I’m stealing your character’s catchphrasesÂ@elishavet-pidyon
This is very thought out for a book without a draft. What’s the books genre?@koshka
Idk why, this sounds Russian to me, I love it XD@not-so-secret-secret-assassin
Those quotes are perfect XD
Swag ain’t to be worried B) -

Ooh, I like her!!!! Kiara sounds like the perfect name… 😉
I like that. Very dramatic. And hilariously out of context
He’s quite the fellow. Poor guy. XD

The curriculum sounds like fun! I pray you’ll be able to crank out the details.
Piano is beautiful.
Those books sound so complicated to be doing all at once.

*rubs hands together evilly* This could be fun…
Also I love those lines XD very funny and very intriguing.
“Ladies, Ladies, please. We all know it’s past your bedtime, and we’re all getting temperamental. We need a leader…”
“Leave me out of this. Your problem”
“Kiara. That’s my name. They’d take you and kill me, and you wante…

Good poetry advice. That’s kind of what I’ve found free-writing or pantsing my book looks like.
Ikr? Wearing socks inside out is fine with me, but the holes–no matter how I try and patch them up–I can’t XD
You can tag the person you’re responding to if you want. It just notifies them (usually via email) that you’re addressing them.…[Read more]

@koshka I love C.S. Lewis too! I used to have a list of poets/poetry that I liked, I’ll be sure to send some of my favorites your way if I find it again 🙂

@melancholic-writer I majored in English in college, and I minored in history because I thought it would give me more content for stories (which it did!) so…yeah! It was challenging but definitely worth it
That’s cool! I definitely feel the struggle trying to find time to write haha, I am also just coming out of a writing break and I’ve been…[Read more]

Hello! Welcome to the Kingdom! I’m Jodi, I write a lot of things but fantasy, historical fiction, and dystopia are my go-to genres.
I have to tell you that I love the sound of your books!! They totally sound like something I would have stayed up waaaay too late reading when I was in middle school and had more time to read 🙂
I also love…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon Helloooo! Welcome to the Kingdom! My name is Jodi, I write fantasy, historical fiction, and sometimes dystopia.
I love the sound of your poetry, especially by the squirrel poet. Are you a fan of the Redwall series, by any chance?
I am also learning to play the piano! It’s slowly getting easier but also harder as I force myself…[Read more]

Hi Tasha! Welcome to the Kingdom. My name is Jodi, and I write fantasy, historical fiction, and the occasional dystopian piece. I was homeschooled pretty much my whole life and I just graduated from college this year! 🙂
I love fairytale retellings! What other kinds of fantasy stories do you usually write?

Hullo and welcome!
Totally agree with you–rather fly. That is and interesting sounding WIP (both the Cinderella one and the fantasy novel)
What’s the name of your fantasy book? -
Anatra replied to the topic This is Koshka, and these are her books in the forum Start HERE 3 years, 1 month ago
Hullo! Nice to meet you.
Those sound like some pretty dramatic books 🙂
I am so bad at poetry XD I’ve tried, and I’ve failed. Knowing me I’ll prolly try again in the next year or so, learn nothing, and fail again lol.
Random question if you will, how do you feel about wearing socks inside out, with holes?

I like that poetry concept! You came up with those characters?
You’re creating a biblical curriculum? That sounds so cool! Is it based off of anything specific?RIP the wallpaper. But *ah* the memories…

Story I’m particular proud of? My WIP for sure. Ig it’s cuz I’ve spent years hammering out fuzzy details, and mostly having fun with the plot.
This is the best form of outline XD I depend heavily on inconsistency. (in the best way)

@kathleenramm
Who told you to guilt me on editing?
But fr, my biggest weakness is my tense. Constantly changing from ‘actively doing something’ to ‘did it in the past’. Ugh, it’s such a pain to edit. But I think I’m getting better.Strength would be creative ideas and plot, I think. That’s for sure the most fun for me too. Throwing together a…[Read more]

Just for a bit of clarification, are you asking how to write a character like this?
Whenever I come over a bump like this I try to put myself in this person’s situation(figuratively, of course). Jsyk, I’m not super familiar with this kind of issue, but I did have a character who was dealing with thoughts like this–self…[Read more]

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic How to know if your book should be a standalone or series? in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 1 month ago
I really just second what everyone else is saying!! For me, it depends a lot on what genre it is and how the story ends. So for a fantasy novel, I’m gonna really highly consider a series since it’s common for the genre, but for my contemporary romance novel I’m writing, I’ve been going back and forth over if I want to do one or not.…[Read more]

I simply have a hard time stopping my writing flow.
My WIP at the moment is a four-part book series, but was intended to be just one book. My issue was I couldn’t let go of my beloved babies after spending such a long time on them XD (Also the first book has a very sad dramatic ending and I couldn’t mentally live with myself…[Read more]
