Kate Flournoy replied to the topic How Do I Create A Fantastic Character? in the forum Characters 9 years, 2 months ago
@Emily-D wow… what an enormous question. 😛
Lemme take a stab at answering it coherently. First step, I would say, is figuring out the contradictions of your character.
For instance, everyone has something that they want. For the sake of conversation, let’s say I want pie. But then, everyone also has something that they need— and most of…[Read more] -

Sci-Fi Tips Part 6
So I’ve given a basic idea of three popular sci-fi sub-genres: the alien invasion, space opera, and robot genre. I hope I’ve given you enough information to reveal the possibilities available within these genres. But, to tell you the truth, I don’t think you should write within a genre. It can be a great starting point, but…[Read more]

Nope. I like silence. Music is distracting.
I did a thing on one of the forums I started: https://kingdompen.org/forums/topic/brainstorming-zone/ so at least I got something done today… @winter-rose
What is Rook about, again?

Whew. Well, now I don’t feel as bad. @winter-rose
I actually can’t listen to music while I write. I need silence–or something close to it.

Hallways—(written to force myself to be creative with the hallway/walking scenes)
(Also: I know this isn’t all grammatically correct. It isn’t supposed to be.)
Hallways, five of them, wind around in strange, dizzying circle, all white sheen and pale radiance. Losing herself among them is easy, and Kara finds it hard to keep her way.

Kate glanced at her. “But I’m the one who brought them in.”

A Tale of Two Cities of course. 🙂
