Hello Future Me is my favourite writing YouTuber and his videos tend to be pretty ok/don’t need much censoring for language or anything like that. They’re very helpful and insightful!

@gracie-j

Aww, you are too sweet 😀 *blushes furiously*

Well, I am hoping to rewrite it later this year, so…

@ilena-louise

Hello! You sound like a fantastic and fascinating addition to the kingdom of pen! I’m Chelsea, one of the interns, but I tend to go by SeekJustice on the forums. I’m a weird Australian, but other than that it sounds like we share a lot of interests!

The Middle Ages are awesome! My particular history hyperfixation is WW1, but…[Read more]

Ok, so I had a go at rewriting the scene and it was actually quite fun! I felt like I saw a side of the two characters that I didn’t see when I was originally writing the first draft. (by the way, this is an enemies to lovers relationship, which I know you love!)

And then they weren’t dancing anymore. They were standing in the…[Read more]

None of my men are keen on showers or cologne unfortunately, it comes of being pirates, werewolves and revolutionaries for the most part 😛

Alright, you asked for it… 😀

They stood there for several seconds, as if stunned by the performance they’d just put on, hands clasped together like they hadn’t been since their wedding day…[Read more]

Well, I’m a little late to the conversation but I’m keen to get on board! I’m not much of a romance writer (or reader) and my kiss scenes are so awkward and stilted, lol. Any tips for the twenty-year-old who hasn’t got past the “ew, boys are gross” stage of life?

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin I’ve tried finding a good writing joke to contribute but I just can’t find anything that’s the same level of hilarious XD

This has got to be one of the best threads on here XD

@when-i-see-the-kingdom Okay, that’s what I thought but I wasn’t completely sure XD I used to be on there but I left almost exactly a year ago XD I plan to rejoin someday, though!

@when-i-see-the-kingdom I love your blog!! I subscribed 🙂

My blog is aldarley.wordpress.com — I don’t post on it very often though XD

Also, random question, but are/were you on Ydubs?

@kathleenramm I always hate reading old writing and feeling like I haven’t improved *cries*

To readjust my focus I usually pray but then I also like to remind myself of things like “it’s okay to not be perfect” and things like that XD

@gracie-j Yep! I would love to write a script for my novel. I should probably finish it first though XD I’ve spent literally hours imagining it as a movie XD Yes, I saw it a couple months ago! I watched it with my family and we didn’t realize it was a Christian movie when we started it XD I was nervous it would be preachy like most Christian m…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Ooh, this is a good question! I’ve tried writing scripts before but they kind of flopped. I still wanna finish one at some point though XD

I think it’d be suuuuper fun to write a screenplay for historical fiction or fantasy (an epic script like LOTR? yes please). And like @gracie-j said, PIRATES. It would be SO MUCH FUN to write a…[Read more]

@kathleenramm When I start feeling discouraged I’ll usually spend some time praying about it and take a short break from writing. I think for me when I’m feeling discouraged it’s usually because I’m comparing myself to other writers or I feel like I’m not working hard enough on my WIP. Usually it’s simply a matter of readjusting my focus.

@daisy-torres

Wow, this is from a little while ago. 😛  Thanks!  I’m glad you like it.

I agree, Kipling’s poems are very good.  Now I should go back and read some, since I haven’t read any of his works in a while. 😉  My favorite poet of the droll variety is probably A.A. Milne, though.  What do you think of his stuff?

@abigail-m

Thank you! …[Read more]

Hey there!  How’s everyone doing?  It’s been a little while. 🙂

Is anyone around?

@kathleenramm I’ve only read two of his superhero sci-fi books and they were all right, but not brilliant. So far, that’s been my impression of Sanderson, all right but not brilliant. I will keep reading though!

@kathleenramm Definitely a historical movie! Not so much a period drama (not like in the style of any of the Jane Austen/Jane Eyre/romance movies) but more like a biopic (or those movies that aren’t about real people but kind of have the biopic style), I guess. I’ve always dreamed of making a movie about the Wright Brothers in particular! There’s…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

Interesting question! The last book I read was The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson, which I finished yesterday! I think my favourite thing was how fleshed out the two main characters (Vin and Kelsier) were! I loved reading about them and rooting for them!

My least favourite thing was how long it was. That put me off reading it f…[Read more]

My very first novel was about anthropomorphic otters and was a typical revolution type story. I still have it somewhere and I’ve been desperately looking for the USB that has the story on it for months!
