OH MY GOODNESS, thank you so very much! You’ve saved my writing life immensely! I agree with 100% of what you said, and I suppose I’ve never thought of character voices that way, but it totally makes sense! That’s a great illustration to have different characters use distinct exclamations, or how they view sunsets, and all the other…[Read more]

Oooh, these were some AWESOMELY AMAZING TIPS!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I TOTALLY agree about the character voice!!! I used to not realize the importance of it, until recently. It’s been one of the areas I’ve mainly focusing on improving these past few months, so this was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <33

@godlyfantasy12

*cue nervous laugh

I probably didn’t make that clear enough, did I? Yeah, I’ve got some struggles…

First off, it’s hard for me to write my characters without it feeling like they’re all somewhat similar. Like, it’s hard to give them their own distinctions sometimes (perhaps it’s because each of my characters are so differe…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting Caira would rather live in the Arctic (my fictional world is already pretty cold)

@abigail-m Deek would rather not have a permanent home but just travel

Would your character rather have to jump everywhere they go or walk on their hands everywhere they go?

@godlyfantasy12
I TOTALLY feel you, girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I always say that its easier to talk about writing than to actually do it. It’s NOT JUST YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think just about every single writer out there struggles with this! I think its more because even though we enjoy writing it takes a LOT of mental energy and we always…[Read more]

In response to the last two questions, Caira would rather be brainy with poor physical strength (in a sense, she already is) and she would probably live a year in repeat

Would your character rather time travel in the past or in the future?

Ah, this is a remarkable idea, so I’ll jump in and tell you about some of my characters! I completely understand with struggling to write down characters fully, so I think this is a wonderful way to express them! Okay, so I’m not very good at writing character summaries, so fingers crossed!

@godlyfantasy12

@godlyfantasy12
Oooooh, this sounds AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Genie – main female lead: Genie’s got this really fun personality. She’s unique and bold and always that girl who’s gonna be herself. She’s fierce at times and doesn’t back down when things get tough. Perseverance, might be what I’m looking for. She also is a girly-girl, pink, frills, etc.…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting
Though I would personally disagree with his choice, he’d choose to watch movies for the rest of his life.

@godlyfantasy12
Well, can I have the hot chocolate then? XD Anyway, ooooh, CAN’T WAIT for your forum post!!!!!!!

@godlyfantasy12 I’m here! I may be off and on, but I’m still free to talk about whatever. Oh, and by the way, definitely choose the hot chocolate 🙂

And don’t worry about whether it’s good or not! As long as you’re writing, keep it up! I’m happy to see everybody’s on this morning… 😀

What’s up @abigail-m WELCOME to Kingdom Pen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *waves dramatically* I’m VERY new myself and can already say I ABSOLUTELY LOVE it here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m sure you will too!!!!!!

@godlyfantasy12
YAYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had been catching up on some emails I got yesterday and a few comments on my blog. Now I’m basically putting off my writing time. I’m supposed to read through this short story I wrote one last time before submitting it to this contest. The deadline is kind of today and I basically put off writing it until…[Read more]
