Issabelle Perry replied to the topic Merging My Novels? in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 6 months ago
Aw, you’re right, though, these are incredible stories and shouldn’t really be rushed. Definitely take your time with it and wait on God’s perfect timing. So like @gracie-j said, I kinda liked the idea of the two novels being separate, but the choice is entirely up to you and it’ll be suuuper great no matter which way you choose to…[Read more]

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic WIP Chat! in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 6 months ago
Ooh, AWESOME!!! Soo, I should admit my writing process is normally 100% different from normal, sane writers processes. I normally write my first drafts how most people write their second ones. But when I start round two, I don’t normally reread my story until later drafts because often it gets very discouraging for me to see all…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Thx! Any other tips u could share? (If u don’t mind) my main thing probably with this draft is definitely the characters (although I want to do good descriptions and such too). I have 3 POV Charries and I write in first person so they each get their own chapter when it shifts to their POV.
I’m mainly trying to figure out how to…[Read more]

@nanisnook Hi! I think mainly this all depends on your writing style, or your writer’s voice. Everyone has a different voice, and obviously it takes a while to find it, so the tip is to try a lot of new things! I personally gravitate towards a minimal style, with extremely minimum description. Recently, though, I’ve done a writing exercise where…[Read more]

GodlyFantasy12 replied to the topic Writing Descriptions in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 6 months ago
Oh! Also, if you’re describing someone, and you’ve already described someone in their family or that looks similar to them, use that! I have one character who has the same hair color and eye color as his mom, so sometimes I’ll mention he looks like his mother, or his eyes, the same as his mom’s, were a bright blue. That way you kinda get two…[Read more]

@nanisnook Sooo I also struggle with this mainly because I don’t want to take the time on it lol. If this is your first or rough draft, I suggest not worrying about it too much unless you want to. You can always go back and add in better descriptions in later drafts (:
That being said, I’d try imagining the scene in your head. How would you feel…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12Â
Second draft haha what is thatÂAhem. Anyways. No, I haven’t really done any second drafts before…I mean, sometimes I change core scenes, and my sister makes me rewrite some…I know I’ll be doing second drafts for some, though, especially the ones that i wrote when I first started writing. I’m gonna redo the whole plot…I, u…[Read more]

GodlyFantasy12 replied to the topic WIP Chat! in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 6 months ago
So y’all, who all has started a second draft? I’m wondering if you could give me some tips. I’ve done the read through, taken notes, and am outlining chapters but decided I may go ahead and start writing chapters I have outlined. That being said, its going to be pretty much an entire rewrite/writing the scenes I did not write (which were a lot).…[Read more]

Aye, so I finally finished a short story I started sometime last year…it’s essentially a combination of a lot of things I’m not used to, including but not limited to: description, different character voice, trying to write in a different style, a semi-retelling allegory, etc, etc, etc, etc…. I wanted to practice a lot of stuff, take a break…[Read more]
