Elfwing replied to the topic Have you ever fallen out of love with writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 9 months ago
well… I don’t think I have fallen out of love of writing… granted, I’ve only been seriously dedicating time to writing the last two years and before that, I hated anything that required a keyboard or a pencil, but now my keyboard has grooves worn in the keys from me using them so much! XD
I get bored with my stories sometimes,…[Read more]

Ooo!! This is a cool idea! Let me see…
Ok, I got mine! But I skipped her internal dialogue, and chose the lines she says out loud. Also, she lives in 1870 London. In TID, Emilia is shy but resilient. independent (only because she has no choice) curious, sensitive, and kind. And a little defensive at times. She is great at problem-solving…[Read more]

Hey, I hope you don’t mind me popping in here!! Drawing maps is one of my favorite things to do, and I had to throw in a recommendation for How to Draw Fantasy Art and RPG Maps: Step by Step Cartography for Gamers and Fans by Jared Blando. It’s an amazing book on map-making, and great for inspiration!! I’d really recommend you get it f…[Read more]

Well, I think this one ought to be… interesting XD
Then he blinked in shock as Violet’s fist shot out like a viper and hit the man square in the throat; he let out a cry of pain, and released his grip on her neck. She fought and bit and kicked, but they still wouldn’t let her go; the…

oooo cool! I’ll share one if that’s okay! It’s my favorite dramatic scene still, even though I’ve written others… and I admit it makes me shiver, likely because I see everything I read in pictures, but it’s still… well decide for yourself.

Elfwing replied to the topic Maps (creative title, I know) in the forum Fantasy 4 years, 9 months ago
well, those days are good too… and then filling in the backstory. I love the daydreaming days as much as planning tbh.
probably because my story sorta requires mysterious countries and unknown peoples, because the biggest country (empire, really) has driven out all other people, so the trade routes are very small and selective and not…[Read more]

Isn’t it awful when that happens? Sorry it happened to you! Anyway, thank you so much! That’s really good advice… I guess I’ll have to think more about my world. *huffs* Thanks. So much for a peaceful, uninterrupted daydream of plot and dialogue. So much for avoiding the nitty-gritty. So much for my pantsing life.

Elfwing replied to the topic Maps (creative title, I know) in the forum Fantasy 4 years, 9 months ago
Sorry, I didn’t copy my reply so I forgot some of it, but this is more or less what I was saying:
I only do maps on paper, and I enjoy it, even if they’re cringy and look like a 7 yr old drew them.
I look at maps from stories I like, or even real life, and try to see how the position of the country affects the others. Questions I ask…[Read more]

@faithq
i am also a pantser…  chapter eight of my first novel supposed to stem into a series of six books: “Where was I going with these five  relationships?! Why does the antagonist have a grudge on the MCs country and want to annihilate it when he has absolutely no connections to it? WHERE ARE MY GOBLINS?! They disappeared after chapter one…[Read more]

Faith Q. started the topic Maps (creative title, I know) in the forum Fantasy 4 years, 9 months ago
Okey-doke, guys, so I’m a pantser. I started out my novel with pretty much no idea of what was going to happen when, where or to whom, and now I’m at the point (eight chapters in, actually) that I really, really need to know what my world looks like. (Kudos to all those people that know this stuff starting out, by the way.) So… how do you guys…[Read more]
