@daeus. That was helpful for me as well, because I have a story in the works, and the two main characters are guys. Thank you!

Aislinn Mollisong started the topic A Girl Writing from a Guy's POV in the forum Characters 6 years, 8 months ago
Hey, guys!
So…the title basically says it all. One of my two POV characters is a boy. I am a girl. Hence, the question.
Guy writers. Tell me how your brains work, please. Or just some tips. Or examples of what NOT to do. Like, if you read a book by a girl author with a boy POV and they failed miserably, how did they do it?
Also, just for…[Read more]

This is a great idea for a topic! (That I somehow missed…)
@rochellaine Once again, you are most welcome. 🙂 I’ll tag you back because you always seem to have the most unique and inspiring thoughts, which have caused me to think deeper about my writing.
@daeus for saying things like this:

That Little Thing Called…“Wonder and Nonsense.” Catwing nodded.
“That’s not-” Daeus didn’t finish.

Sam Kowal replied to the topic Writing Prompts in the forum Art 6 years, 8 months ago
@rochellaine There’s definitely room for that, too. In fact, it would be depressing if every story ended with the hero not solving the problems, but at the same time, I would love to read about it a little bit.
XD 😀 Yeah. It’s tough, with an MC like that in realistic fiction- you can’t just have her want to free her people, or become the next…[Read more]

“So, Jenna?” began Dekreel after their previous conversation had petered.
“Yeah?”
“What do you like to write?”
Oh, no, <i>that<i> question. She sighed a little. “Umm… several things, I guess.”
“Anything you’re working on?”
“… Not really. I write random essays. And I journa…[Read more]

One of my classmates recently started an editing business, so if you want to check it out, here you go!
She’s an editor for our school’s journalism club and was head editor for a recently released literary magazine. (She’s also an incredibly hard-working and responsible friend, so I’d recommend her on that basis if not anything…[Read more]

Snapper started the topic Choppy Writing in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 8 months ago
So recently (okay, not recently). For the past TWO novels, I’ve been really focusing on the show don’t tell thing. That in itself is all right. I don’t know how to do otherwise now. However, it creates another sort of problem.
Choppiness.
Due to the fact that I’m not exactly writing a school essay and transitions such as ‘furthermore’ won’t…[Read more]

Hannah R. replied to the topic Encouragement Thread in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 8 months ago
@daeus Thanks! By the way, I went to a writers conference and pitched Prince of the Barbarians, and one of the agents was very interested and asked me to send a synopsis. So we’ll see where that goes. 🙂 I thank you for your encouragement, and for teaching me the importance of body language. It is a lesson I’ve never forgotten. I now own The Em…[Read more]

Aww, thanks so much @kate-flournoy. You’re awesome too! 😀 <3
…and now I’m in the same boat as @daeus. Can’t I just tag everyone? 😛
Well, since I can’t, let’s see… maybe I’ll try for some folks who haven’t been on in awhile, just to let them know we’re still thinking about them and missing them.
