Thanks for the advice! I have spent the past five years learning as much as possible about plot structure. I’ve tried (among other things) the snowflake method, the 3-act story structure, numerous authors’ plotting structures, and pantsing. Sarra Cannon has been a recent follow for me, but her methods all use color coding and…[Read more]

How would you describe House’s personality? 😛
House is normally pretty fun-loving and friendly. Right now it is depressed and angry (think stereotypical teenage angst type thing) which leads to it’s lashing out towards the other characters. One morning, for example, my characters woke up to find the kitchen totally flooded o…[Read more]

1. I LIKE TO READ. AND RUN. AND PLAY PIANO. NOT AT THE SAME TIME.
What, you don’t do it at the same time? Sounds like a skill issue to me. (jk)
Now I expect you to answer all of these question as well.

1. Reading, drawing, 3D modelling, and videogames!
2. YES (my favorite is Vantage, which is like if an open-world videogame was…[Read more]

Naturally. All in the name of research. *grins thinking of all the things that could be considered “research”* So I could visit Middle-Earth for at least a century or so for research then, lol 🙂

That’s awesome!!! I am very similar. I have been writing for as long as I could remember. Or making fantasy maps 🙂 But about 5 years ago I decided to get serious with my writing. So I have also been writing for 5+ years!
So I’m going to ask this but no worries if you don’t have an answer! What is your highest word count on a single project?

Thank you for cleaning up the broccoli, it is much appreciated. But what was that I heard about secrets? 🧐
ANYHOODLES, hello! I must agree with you that Elrond is a very superior character, as are Pippin, Sam, and Faramir. As for Tolkein’s work, I have merely read the Hobbit and the three (or one? If its all put together) Lord…[Read more]

Alas, character art is lacking. I want to draw my characters, however I am not a super great artist. I typically pull pictures off of Canva or Google that look like I generally imagine my character to be 🙂 Someday though!!!

Hello all! For those of you who don’t know me I am Liska Boyce, YA fantasy novelist (or at least trying to be lol) and world-builder.
I have been working on a complex idea for a new novel – think at least 6 main POVS, a sentient House, and possibly the beginning of a series? – and realized that I am a plotter. Unfortunately I also realized that…[Read more]

Oof the grumpy cartographers!! Gotta love ’em 🙂 I have a character who travels around the world my story is set in (his name is Wanderer) and he is as annoyed as one could possibly dream a character could be.

Hmm… I would totally own a horse for the rest of my life!! This is for several, totally logical reasons, naturally.
1. To learn to ride a horse is the dream my 7 year old self never got to fulfill
2. I’m TERRIFIED of heights
3. If I could only ride a dragon for one day, I’d never want that day to end, let’s be real
But on the other…[Read more]
