@GracieGirl I know I’m late in saying this but… Welcome! Really glad you could join us “crazies” here :p
I really like David Nevue’s music! His “Overcome” has always been my favorite. It’s the only piano piece I’ve been able to retain in my memory long term 🙂 Do you play his pieces or just listen?

@GabrielleMassman Why hello! I am very late to this party! But I had to stop by and welcome you to the forum! Welcome!
Yes, time management, a very tricky thing to balance! What is it that you’re studying at the Christian college you attend?

@hope Ah, that would make more sense as a trilogy. Ok, good to know.

@Aratrea thanks. 🙂 It definitely still needs work, but thanks.

Good point— I’ll watch out for that, definitely.
I don’t want the book ending on a completely sour note— the resolution of Harold’s arc is pretty sour, but as this is the second book of a series, I need it to end with a question that leads into the other books— and that is, sin…[Read more]

@Daeus good. 😛
Sure. Sure. I’ll believe that when I see it.

And I hope you’re right. *nods solemnly*
Ack! Now I’m starting to sound like you. Haha! XD

@Daeus eeeep! Sorry! I didn’t tag you so it isn’t my fault! 😛

Okay though, great points. Yes. You’re right. Maybe because my grasp on that is too shallow… *groans**bangs head against the wall* HAROLD HAD BETTER APPRECIATE THE MENTAL AGONY I’M GOING THROUGH FOR HIS SAKE.
Okay. *settles down* I must definitely do brainstorming on that. Oh…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Ack! Can’t look at climax! *turns away*

Ok, so, for everything else, what I noticed is that it includes a lot about the plot, but the parts about how that external journey affected his inner journey were too vague. I think the main thing is you didn’t state Harold’s EIL. I assume Harold does have at least one positive arc. If so,…[Read more]

Character’s story goal is to find his place in the world. It’s a coming-of-age. Yep, a disillusionment arc coming-of-age. 😛 I didn’t do it on purpose so don’t ask me how it happened. lol
Anyway. His more tangible goal is to find the one man who was kind to him after something particularly tragic happened in his past, and he believes that wherever…[Read more]

@ethryndal I’m going to take a break now. I may be back, but I have to decide what I’m going to do next.

@ethryndal Cool. Here we go.

Hey, y’all. I’ll be writing for a bit if anyone wants to join.

@Ethryndal *gives you moral support and commiseration* I had to rewrite my entire WIP as well. It seemed impossible at the start, but now I’m almost done and though it still makes me want to tear my hair out sometimes it’s really not so bad. It gets better, dear. It does. We promises. 😉

@hope It seems that you have two character arcs in your story. One, a positive arc on trust. Two, a disillusionment about the sureness of temporal victory. There might be a third one around responsibility (her growing to consider herself responsible for more than just those she loves), but I doubt it because she doesn’t seem to change in that…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper READ MORE BOOKS. 😛 Do you like fantasy? Read The Songkeeper Chronicles, by Gillian Bronte Adams. The third book isn’t out yet but the first two are awesome. Do you like Saxon culture and coming-of-age? Read The Edge on the Sword, by Rebecca Tingle. Do you like medieval stories? The Red Keep and Rolf and the Viking Bow, both by…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy @dragon-snapper I’ll be editing tonight.

@northerner Sweet-o. I got about two and a quarter chapters edited.

@northerner Sweet. You’re on.

@dragon-snapper @winter-rose @anyone-else I’ll be editing for an hour.
