@abigail-m

Yes, that would be awesome!! I love the medieval aesthetic in books, so it sounds like one I would particularly enjoy!! 😀 😀 Aww, thank you!!

That means so much to me, I can’t put it into words (or exclamation points)!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Thanks for confirming that XD I usually edit my posts and am never sure whether or not it’s going to disappear… *sigh* And yes, I don’t know how I’m going to start a new story with new characters *sniffles* I’ll feel like I betrayed Caira and her crew. But I think our first-ever characters will always hold special places in our…[Read more]

Thank you!!:) I’m happy to try it out!! Oh, and I normally write around 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time Zone, in case anybody was curious 🙂

I thought I’d share my first and last lines I’ve written today 🙂 :

First

He pointed to the fleck of white on the map in the middle of the Aldovian kingdom, where the imperial palace was at the heart of the corners of the four Meridians.

Last

Caira didn’t hear what more was said, because she had already begun to drown in her thoughts of…

Aw, I’m sorry, girl! I can definitely understand being stressed over school. But I promise it’ll be okay and you’ll hit a break eventually:) But don’t push yourself too hard–even if you don’t make your word count, you still made progress, and that’s all that NaNo is about:) So don’t feel bad if you don’t hit your goal–just do what you…[Read more]

@daisy-torres

Hey, this is a great idea!! Especially with doing NaNoWriMo currently, this would be a huge benefit to me!! Great topic!!:) I may be able to sprint soon 😉

@abigail-m

Thank you SO MUCH for writing that review for me!! It’s definitely swayed me into wanting to read the series now–it’s been forever since I’ve read for enjoyment, so thank you for the recommendation!!

@abigail-m

So my post disappeared… *sigh* Would you mind telling me if you got it in your notifications? I can always re-send it if you didn’t. I went to make some edits and it was gone 🙁

@abigail-m

Yes, I know that feeling! *facepalms* I always think it’s going to be much easier, but nope. Oh well. On one hand, it will be fun writing on a new story, but on the other hand, I’m going to miss my characters from Fortitude and will feel guilty for getting attached to new ones XD And thank you so much!! It’s definitely one of the m…[Read more]

@abigail-m

*sighs* Good–I didn’t want to miss out on getting a signed copy of it! And thank you so much!!:) I can’t wait until we can come to each other’s book signings (or do them together–that would be amazing)!!

Yeah, pacing isn’t my strong suit when it comes to writing. Especially balancing high-intensity scenes with slow, meaningful ones…[Read more]

@nova21

Hey, so sorry I didn’t reply to your post! I saw it, but then I forgot to type out my response… *facepalm* Anyways, your story idea sounds incredible, girl!! The storyline sounds so suspenseful and mysterious, I love it!! Oooh, that’s so interesting you’ve divided up the people that way–that makes things so much more tense. You’ve had…[Read more]

@abigail-m

I did get your reply in my notifications, so no need to worry:) And of course I loved them!! How could I possibly not? And aww, that means so much to hear you say, and it means a lot that my posts have made you happy and encouraged you!!

So I’m reviving this topic because I wanted to see how y’all’s WIPs were coming along? 🙂 Or just writing in general, really. How is everybody doing today? 😀

@abigail-m

Aw, those are such cute reactions! Especially Anton’s–I honestly thought he couldn’t get any more adorable!:) Ooh, I’ve heard of that series, picked it up in a bookstore, but never went through with buying it. Is it good, or one you would recommend? Halt sounds like my type of character already! 😀

And of course, you don’t need to…[Read more]

@abigail-m

That’s so interesting! As much as I like Lila, though, I have to say that Mejia makes such an incredible protagonist, and I’m glad you ended up choosing her to carry the bulk of the story:) And thank you! I agree–the story wouldn’t feel the same any other way!

Oh, I have the same thing happen to me a lot XD I have a few docs with…[Read more]
