@daeus Anything you can give me on swords, fighting styles, etc. will definitely be helpful.

Alright, peoples, listen up. I have questions.
One of the reasons I’ve enjoyed writing in the sci-fi genre is that you don’t have to know much about fighting styles or weapons. It’s sci-fi, and no one expects you to be realistic the entire time, so you can just…make stuff up. Which I do. A lot.
But, in the days since my old sci-fi WIP k…[Read more]

Elizabeth replied to the topic The Elements of Elemental Cliche… in the forum Fantasy 6 years, 10 months ago
You didn’t tag me either, but…no. Elemental powers aren’t cliche. Now, the way you use them can be cliche, but as for the powers themselves, they’re a great way to spice up a character.
Everyone above me has already mentioned that, and everything else on this subject, so…I’ll shut up now.

Snapper replied to the topic What to do with a blog/website ? in the forum Publishing & Platform 6 years, 10 months ago
@itisastarrynight So, I had that exact same question just a week ago.
And I started a blog. I had no idea what I was going to write about, but as soon as I started it, I started finding ideas.
To get a general idea of what bloggers blog about, I’d check out a bunch of blogs. There are some good ones on the page of my blog.
For me, I get the…[Read more]

I love everything by Sir H. Rider Haggard, Elisabeth Elliot, Douglas Bond, and John J. Horn.
I’ve never heard of those books. What kind of stuff do they write?

I get you XD It’s not very easy.

I have no idea. I’ve dabbled in that genre, but not enough to know much about it :/ I understand it being difficult to write. I have to do a lot of research and stay within more boundaries for historical accuracy.

Urban! Got it.
That’s super neat… I’ve heard it takes a lot of imagination to write fantasy.

Hi Dekreel!
I don’t really watch many TV shows, just because I live out in the country. But my favorite books are many. I love everything by Sir H. Rider Haggard, Elisabeth Elliot, Douglas Bond, and John J. Horn.

Hello!
I also stalked this place warily before joining 😉 It must be a normal routine.
I have lots of stories I’m currently working on, and all of them are from the Historical Fiction genre. The top five are from ancient Rome, Renaissance France, Victorian England, the Dark Ages, and the early days of Pioneer America.
How about you?

Hello,
I’m Bella. I am seventeen years old, and love writing! My favorite genre is Historical Fiction, but I like to write non-fiction too.
I’m new here, so if I don’t get things right bear with me!

@radically-surrendered That’s a fascinating idea!! I think you should try it! It sounds like a world where I’d want to live! I love music. But make sure you find a unique and captivating plot or else it will get a little old. It seems like that to me.
I love this! 😀

@itisastarrynight That’s fine 🙂
Her name is…. I haven’t decided. Let’s call her “Peri.” She has pale blue eyes, very short straight blond hair, and large round glasses. She has a steampunk outfit, but not as frilly as Amelia’s outfit 🙂
And if you want I’ll draw one of your characters in return 😉
