Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Size of a Writer's Vocabulary in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 3 months ago
For those of you surprised they didn’t do better, thought I’d point out that this test is a knowledge quotient test, not necessarily a judge of how deep your vocabulary is. Most of the words on that list I could have figured out just by dissecting their roots, but as I was supposed to click the ones I knew I let them lie. Also, though this…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper *digs claws into her keypad, hisses fire* STAY. AWAY. FROM MY PRECIOUS. BEN. SOLO. YES HE IS THE VILLAIN. WHICH WILL MAKE HIS REDEMPTION A HUNDRED TIMES MORE BEAUTIFUL. AND IF I COULD THROW THAT MASK INTO A SARLAC PIT AND NEVER SEE IT AGAIN I WOULD.
And I would actually be incredibly relieved if Rey is a Kenobi, because I don’t…[Read more]

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Love Triangles— what the Classical Authors knew that we don't. in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 3 months ago
@Ethryndal oh boy, I hadn’t even thought of that angle. 😛 Thanks a lot. XD The LotR films had their share of problems and didn’t come anywhere close to the books, but I still loved them, and I’m still trying to figure out how the same man directed the Hobbit films. Maybe we should start a rant thread just for that. 😛

@Charisetter what they said, but YOU’VE READ EAGLE OF THE NINTH!??? *high fives you* Nobody’s read that! Congratulations on your impeccable taste! 😀 Have you read the other two?
Also one tip for your original question— since this is fantasy, your worldbuilding and cultural development will go a long way to making your story unique. Not as…[Read more]

@Aysia-Serene @Daeus I could be wrong, but I think a beta-reader is more specifically a READER, not a writer— not to give you feedback as a writer or editor would, but as a reader would. Which means technically, everyone on KP who exchanges reads for each other, is a critique partner, not a beta-reader. Beta-readers are specifically to sound out…[Read more]

So I had a post typed out to respond to you earlier, and somehow my computer lost it. And then I forgot to respond. My apologies. 🙂
Anyway, here are some of your questions answered:-If you want to meet with someone to have a good chat, do you go to a coffee shop or some other place?
I’m sure there are coffee shops in England,…[Read more]

Yes. I haven’t written up a formula for that one yet.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Character Arc-What's That? in the forum Characters 9 years, 3 months ago
@Winter-Rose nope, looks good. I would make the distinction that for a flat arc, the arc is actually the plot/surroundings changing to fit the truth of the character, not the other way around as it is with the other arcs.
