Daeus replied to the topic Ranking Up? in the forum Questions and Support 6 years, 11 months ago
Hi @jenwriter17 Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet!
Ranks are determined by how many posts you make. I don’t know exactly how many you need for each rank, but it doesn’t take too long for your rank to go up if you stay active.

Daeus replied to the topic A KeePer Christmas in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 11 months ago
@anne-of-lothlorien For some reason, I couldn’t stop laughing when I read “a crowd of writers thronged my porch”. It seemed like there should be fairies on the porch or something, but instead they were writers and it was the most ludicrous thing ever.

Daeus replied to the topic An Obsessive Organizer Who Can't Organize Editing Notes in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 11 months ago
@audrey-caylin I organize my editing notes with the comments feature built into scrivener, google docs, word, etc. So, whenever a beta reader leaves a comment, if the fix is too much to handle right then as I’m reading through the beta reader’s comments, I’ll copy it over to my personal copy of the document. I’ll do the same thing if their comment…[Read more]

@xonos-darkgrate I know some people who would find that too graphic, but I don’t. I think there’s a good light/dark contrast and it doesn’t make me feel empathetic toward the villain so I’d say this is good so long as it’s for a good purpose. 🙂

Oh, and I didn’t read your excerpt either. If I did, I’d want to know what basic content was in it first and I might not be able to get it in anyways.

I’ll just stop in real quick to drop a few bits of meat, but if you want to hear a lot about this subject, we have several articles on it.
The thing I think is crucial to understand with content is that you want sympathy but you do not want empathy.
Sympathy is when you feel for or understand another person’s e…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic Another Question in the forum Plotting 6 years, 11 months ago
@dragon-snapper Sure, though you shouldn’t just stick two stories in one book. The two villains need to have the same goal or attack the same weakness in the protagonist or do anything else that keeps the story coherent.

Oh, wait, you already asked Kate this question. WHY!?

@dragon-snapper The max? Hahahahaha!
Oh, dear. The max, you say. Well, I don’t know if there is a max. 😉 Probably very few people if any have ever written a 1,000,000 word fantasy novel, but I will say that the trilogy I’m working on is looking like it will end up that long.
And whatever you do, don’t ask Kate this question!

@xonos-darkgrate I basically side with @kate-flournoy, though I don’t think that swear words cannot ever ever be used.
We had a discussion on this before you might want to read. https://kingdompen.org/forums/topic/coarse-language/
Basically, my position is that you should try as hard as you can not to use any swear words and that the majority o…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic PRAYER REQUESTS #2 in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 11 months ago
@winter-rose Do I ever feel for you. Quitting the standard, laid out path to go write has got to be one of the most disorienting, frustrating, wonderful things ever.
I have no idea what it will be like for you, but I do know that.
1. God is faithful
2. Writing is awesome
3. You’ll never be the sameHave a cookie 🍪 😀
