@nova21 Personally, I don’t really think about themes, I just write, and then hope someone can tell me what the themes are, because I’m really bad at discerning what my themes are. Have you seen Story Embers’ latest article? I think that might help you. Let me send you the link (and hope that the forum doesn’t eat my…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Sounds epic. I will bring brownie cookies (my specialty) and my gift shall be my typical set of questions.

The games sound awesome; I’m willing to give it a try.

Oo, face reveal, how fun!

Hm, not sure what to wear. I think I shall do one of those “Boring Halloween” things and dress up as a lady who’s waiting for a…[Read more]

@joy-caroline It’d take too long for me to recount 13 Ways so I’ll just give a quick glossary over some short stories… I guess most of my ideas stem from like images I see in my brain or something that I’m reading at the moment. For example, I was reading a manga and about halfway I thought, What if I did something like this too, except not…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 As a fellow pantser, I am probably not qualified to answer this question. Most of the time I can kind of guess where the climax is by seeing where the falling action starts. But personally I feel like my climaxes are a bit on the bland side.

I think that what I can tell you is go for it, and edit later. After you write it you can…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 Ahh currently I’m sorting out some homework but I’ll be glad to hop on at some point!

@faith-q Ah, sorry I missed you! I was sleeping.

@daisy-torres Awesome! I shall be sprinting all afternoon to whenever I finish this project. Won’t be online, probably, but just pretend I’m here.

@nova21 I do like series set in the same world but aren’t necessarily connected. 👍🏽 But I think to achieve this successfully the world building has to be done really well and made interesting enough for the reader to stay in that world. In this kind of situation, I personally like it when the books are at least a little bit connected, even if it’s…[Read more]

@nova21 I think I have one series on my to-do where the only thing in common was that they were in the same world and some minor characters made an appearance. Heck, most of my series happen in the same world.

I think that your ideas sound awesome! I feel like however that the three should either a) tie in with each other at the end, or b) have…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Nice job, nice job. I support you in this plan.

I shall tag you everytime I make a new topic or think that people should be tagged. Do not fear.

@faith-q Awesome! Thank you as well!

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Aw, sorry you feel that way. I remember back then I rarely checked the forum because I never got tagged. So my solution to this is to tag you whenever possible.

Also, what I do is I go check the recent topics tab every day and then check and read the recent topics and reply if I want. It’s helpful.

Best of luck!

@faith-q Ah, I’ve been sprinting on my own, and will be for the rest of the afternoon/night, so just pretend I’m there!

@e-k-seaver Sure thing!

@molly Hi there! Lovely to meet you! I’m Linyang, though most here call me Lin. I’ve been writing for maybe 6 years now, and I enjoy crime, fantasy, and realism. What genres do you like to write?

What is your current work in progress about, if you have one? I’d love to hear more about it!

What are some of your favorite…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 Ah, unfortunately I don’t have Facebook. Best of luck, though!

@e-k-seaver Just saw this…I’m currently trying to tamper with some WordPress stuff, could I ask for your help?

@daisy-torres I did a tad bit of research on it, seems like Amazon used to try a thing where they did a serialized novel thing but it failed miserably.

Right now it seems that sites like Wattpad, Tapas, Webnovel, Webtoon, and a million other sites are growing, which is why Amazon is trying this new thing. Apparently the first few episodes are…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Fullmetal Alchemist is so good! I was just thinking about it this morning, haha…

@kathleenramm Something similar to that; In Silver Spoon, by the same author as FMA, the main character Hachiken Yuugo has a pretty compelling backstory. At the start of the series we see that he’s come to farming school as an escape,…[Read more]

@mkfairygirl Ah I should sleep now… Got 525 words so not bad, not bad. About halfway there.
