In case you’d like some inspiration, Ruth Sanderson’s paintings and telling of the story is my favorite and the best! You should look it up.
As to what I like and what irritates me about the story, I’ll go remember it and come back 🙂 -

Sounds delicious to me! I agree with Kate though, but your percentage gets the point across! You’ll probably go down in history with this maxim written by your name and be knighted for such ingenious thoughts.
Ooo. I do like the term “writing gurus”. *goes to write that down on a piece of paper I’ll probably lose* -

All right, thanks for writing with me, @kate-flournoy! I have to stop now. 🙁 Anyway, I got 1001 words written for a short story I just started to write.

*nods firmly, smothers chuckle* Very sound advice @Daeus.

*grabs maxim, slams inky stamp on it so hard knocks inkwell off table* Writing guru approved. *huge grin*
Honestly I can’t find a single problem with that. I might even make the ratio even more unbalanced in favor of reaction. 99.9 percent of action is reaction, after all. You need one teensy piece of action to start the whole chain going, and…[Read more] -

I’ve got a new writing maxim. I haven’t exactly run it by the writing gurus yet, but that starts here.
My new maxim: “Character is one fourth action and three quarters reaction”
Sooooooo… *flings arms very wide*
What do you think???

Daeus replied to the topic Writer's Corner in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 5 months ago
Well ok, just watch out for calluses. (and why you’re at it, watch out for cougars, wolfs, bears, and things you might have lost.)

I love the names!
They got pretty much everything, but I wanted to ask… you said this is inspired by Pangea. (And yes, I know what Pangea is. 😉 ) Is it supposed to take place in that time-period?? If so, it is waaaaaaaaaaay too modern to get that across.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Writer's Corner in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 5 months ago
Kate look, you really gotta dip those fingers in water every now and again or they’ll catch fire. Friction, ya know? Science stuff???
@Daeus hahahaha… that’s actually a family joke. Mom likes to say ‘if anyone comes in here and smells smoke, don’t be alarmed— it’s just Kate’s keyboard.’ 😉
But you’ll be glad to hear my fingers thus far a…[Read more]

Hey, this is a good question @overcomer. I agree with Daeus— it needs to enhance the theme someway, but I also think it’s fine to have it there just as a story element and not overtly illustrating the theme. Don’t get me wrong— all story elements play into the theme somehow, but some are more obvious than others. 😉
Let me give you an example.…[Read more] -

Well, a short but productive burst.

Oh, and I created two characters named Silver and Imperturbable. Quite fun.
