Yes, it most certainly is:) They are fifteen and twelve and are still can be troublesome to look after sometimes XD
Ooh, those are great settings to write in! And hey, that’s AMAZING!!! 😀 I’m incredibly glad that I was able to help:D
Hmm, I usually don’t get return questions, so this’ll be fun! I got to say my favorite character archety…[Read more] -

Abigail.M. replied to the topic Self publishing or traditional? in the forum Publishing & Platform 3 years, 4 months ago
@joycaroline
Hi Joy! Or would you prefer JC? 🙂 Anyway, this response is late, but I plan on going by traditional publishing all the way. And the reason for this used to be because I didn’t want to be just another voice in a sea of them, trying to find an audience. And while that is still part of it, several other things play into my decision s…[Read more]

Never mind my earlier post, I figured out why I couldn’t find my reply, (links) XD That’s funny and not so funny at the same time.

Dobro pozhalovat!
Which is essentially ‘greetings’ in Russian:) I feel really bad about being this late with my reply, *looks sheepishly around KP* that is with all my replies really. But yes, I’m with you, I keep telling myself to make a schedule to make time somewhere… but I don’t even have time to do that XD But still, I…[Read more]

Jodi Maile replied to the topic New Book Ideas!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 4 months ago
@godlyfantasy12 Hey, those sound great! I’m really intrigued by the first idea, and the second sounds like an interesting and fresh way to dive into a fairytale retelling.
I’m currently writing a series of short stories that are either fairytale retellings (that I come up with ideas for at random times lol) or are just random ideas that I come up…[Read more]

Heya!!!! Ooo, yeah, so that was a plug-in I found. The site I’m using is a wordpress.org site and not a .com (I don’t know if things change for different platforms… yes there is a difference. 😉 ) but I had heard about this free plug-in that you can install and activate on your WordPress site. What I did was go under the section…[Read more]

Katherine replied to the topic Fantasy Kingdom Names in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 5 months ago
@joy-caroline Girl, a Biblical fantasy sounds totally AWESOME!!!!!!!! I love it!!!!!!! 😀
So, what I do for kingdom names most of the time is take a root word that has a relevant meaning to my story and change the ending to pattern the ending of real country names. I hope this helps! 🙂

Anatra replied to the topic Welcome Anatra23!!! in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 3 years, 5 months ago
That’s hilarious.
And you would be right to assume I love cake.
This story was super embarrassing back when, but now it’s kinda funny.
So, back when I was about four, I would jot down random ideas in a little notebook and pretend to be a journalist. So several years ago, my siblings and I found my old book, and read through it. The most…[Read more]

Goodness, thank you so much for the welcome!
Character drawn? I may just take you up on that sometime.

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic Fantasy Kingdom Names in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 5 months ago
There’s not really any secret. I just put letters together until I’m satisfied with the name. Another thing you can do (which I learned from Jennifer A. Nielsen) is to take a name–let’s say Alabama–and then you just keep replacing the letters in that word until you’re satisfied with the result. So for Alabama, I might first change…[Read more]

Jodi Maile replied to the topic Using a Pen Name: Yay or Nay? in the forum Publishing & Platform 3 years, 5 months ago
Ooh, I really like A.M. Williams. It does feel similar to L.M. Montgomery, which is also an elegant-sounding name. Alexa Williams sounds pretty too, though. In the end, I think it’s up to you and what you like best. I don’t know if the pen name would really matter unless you had already published a bunch of stories in a genre that…[Read more]

Oooooo I would DEFINITELY love some character art!!!! THANKS SO MUCH for the tag!!! I’ll go with the lead girl character in my current WIP. Her name is Ashlee and she is sixteen. She has medium-length auburn hair and brown eyes. Anyway, I searched and searched to try to find the image I used for my mock cover for Ashlee’s story, but I…[Read more]

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic Writing the Climax in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 5 months ago
Hmmm… this is a tough one. I don’t know how much I can help you with this but one thing I always try to remember is, what happens at the climax doesn’t matter as much as what happens leading up to it. Literally, whatever your mc has been trying to get throughout the whole story, just take it from her. If there’s some romance,…[Read more]

It seems everyone else has already given you lotsa great tips, but don’t worry about not having that contact page thing. Hardly anyone ever uses it on TWN. And I see some people who are mentioning things about…[Read more]
