Yes!! XD He’s an awesome teacher. He’s totally a science nerd, but he’s like super smart. He’s said some things during class that have temporarily broken my brain. And then my brother just laughs at me when I tell him about it. 😂

@thearcaneaxiom

Thank you so much for all this advice!! I’ll definitely be applying it.

Which story is this by the way? Is this a new one?

Not a new one. It’s actually my dystopian trilogy that I’ve been working on for over a year now. It keeps changing as I mature as a writer and lately I’ve been really focusing on revamping the first book be…[Read more]

*everyone ignore that i just referred to my espresso as a “he”…XD”

It’s okay, my science teacher refers to atoms as “he”s. 😂

(It deleted my post for some reason)

So I just saw the other comments saying that the setting isn’t as big a deal. Personally I think setting is very important, but it also depends on who you are as the author, and what kind of story you want to write.

Your not over thinking it for being concerned about whether your setting is playing…[Read more]

Maybe @thearcaneaxiom could help? (Sorry if she already tagged you.)

No problem, thanks for the tag!

@esther-c

So this is a good thing to be aware of when writing your story. Your definitely right that you want to have your setting more tied into the plot. I like how Brandon Sanderson puts it: Character, setting, and conflict are the three pieces, and the plot is the glue that keeps them together in a story.

You care about your characters,…[Read more]

*Listens to Mr. Blue Sky while writing my dramatic scene*

*is now stuck in my head* One of my favorite movie tropes is when they play a super happy, popular song over a intense fight scene, though, hehe

Patricia MacLachlan was a children’s author, yes. But I still find her books interesting. Her most well known, “Sarah, Plain and Tall,” would be about the thickness of a thin beginner’s novel, if that gives you any idea. I’m not sure how to classify her genre. You can read a sample of “Sarah, Plain and Tall” on Amazon to give you an i…

I think I lean more toward hard world building. While I have written some projects for fun where literally anything can happen, I love thought-out structure and processes in books (especially when it takes something from reality and kinda twists it).

Cool! Yeah, I’m definitely a hard worldbuilder. I definitely appreciate soft…[Read more]

@rae

Ooh, does Chase always have black scales/fur/whatever when he transforms? Or is it more of a whim?

The boy Guardian was in a demon’s vice-like grip.

Almost instantly, Chase and the new girl reacted. The first transformed into a scaly black snake, hissing a warning in the demon’s face, while the other teleported and threatened with a sword.

Babs only stepped closer and begged, “You’re hurting…[Read more]

To Conrad

How would you like people to think of you? What one trait would you keep, more than anything else?

Y’ALL SMAPPED MY TOPIC

SARA

WHAT DID YOU GUYS DOoOOOO XDXD

@loopylin

Alright, sounds good XD

I think my emotions might be a bit broken.

Hey, no shame enjoying the whimsical nature of a story rather than the emotions. Absolutely no shame.

Sebastian

At Dante’s approving comment, the other boy’s chest puffed out like a peacock’s feathers.

@whalekeeper

Aww, thanks!

And you’re not hogging the spotlight either, you’re just giving us more options for what we do with our characters. (Writing romance and people dancing is hardd)

@rae

Yeah, that happens too. Idk, I cry with Alpha when he looses Emmie, reject Gloria with Glace when he was banished, I’m shocked with Nahim when he di…

Oh, sorry, tags @loopylin @rae @savannah_grace2009 @jonas do with this scene what you wish XD
