@catwing @dekreel @jane-maree @rochellaine @seekjustice @dragon-snapper @gh24682468999 @alia @kaya-young @skredder @everyone
I just put up another blog post today! Don’t worry, I won’t tag you every time I post, I just wanted to let y’all know. For some reason the email sent out that was supposed to notify of new posts only sent out one and not…[Read more]

@catwing, I’m pretty excited about this one, but because it deals with a lot of psychology and medical things I have to do a ton of research

@catwing, @rochellaine, I’m here outlining and researching a new book idea

@catwing I’m here! How are you doing?

Hmm I guess that makes sense. I’m calling it a parody because that’s the closest thing I can think of for now. I’m trying to strike a delicate balance between drama and comedy. In some ways being over the top is good but I’m also deconstructing some of the cliches and sometimes that calls for being more subdued and…[Read more]

@seekjustice I’m starting chapter 20 now, and in the opening of that Justice is telling Chessy she is supposed to be at home, as usual. 😛 Then Jonas looks at Justice to make him shut up, also as usual. 😛
However, I was wondering, of course Jonas would tell Justice not to be so harsh, but Justice is just trying to protect Chessy, so why is he…[Read more]

Hey. Just getting lost reading SeekJustice’s blog and reviewing what I wrote last night… Do you think it is weird if every other character is described as handsome, beautiful, attractive etc.? I mean, my story is supposed to have a sugary romance novel surface (underneath the surface is something else entirely) after…[Read more]

Ah, romance subplots are so pesky! They turn up when you least expect them and suddenly, whoa, that guy’s a love interest.
Starting Fires? Oh, I wonder why it’s called that 😛

@seekjustice I’m here now! How’s it going? I think I’m finally going to read the rest of the third part of the second draft of your first book…I love the way that sounds…before I get back to my own book. 😀
@catwing Your WIP sounds interesting, but I’ve been waiting for three years for you to write Firebird… 😛
Just kidding, though. I…[Read more]

😀 I guess I just got used to writing from only two point of views, but I really like first person so I just deal with it.
I don’t know. Is your book in first person or third? I was just suggesting you could try telling it from a different point of view for the second book, whether that was in first or third. Does that make sense?

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 4 months ago
Sorry. Am getting distracted checking out the blog 😛
I have no discipline when it comes to POVs. I just finished a chapter with a scene from the POV of a minor character who I doubt will ever show up on page again. I am amazed how you managed to consistently stick with a few POVs each book, SeekJustice.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 4 months ago
You could always swap some of the povs for book two, couldn’t you? in my novel, I have two first-person points, and while my main, main character remains constant, the other pov changes between books. You could try something like that if you wanted.
Poor Alex *hugs her*

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 4 months ago
I do indeed have a blog. anordinarypen.wordpress.com/
@catwing Three isn’t bad, I’ve read books with more. I don’t think I could do more than three, 😛 I’d confuse myself, let alone my reader! Ah, okay, before she goes pyromaniac.
I have a question though. Is Alex bad? or misunderstood? or what?

Yep this is the same job I was agonising over back then. God is great! 😀
Thanks! 🤗

Hey I’ll be here for a bit before I go off for bible study.
SeekJustice you have a blog? Can I read it? 😀
-
SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #18 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 4 months ago
Oh yes! me too! I just want to get to book three…I’ve already book two, but its still pretty rough.
Yep, you’ve told me about that one. it’s the one which had a lot of povs and you had to get rid of some and its the one with Alex in it, am I right?
