Can I just say that I absolutely love the name Tora! It’s actually my dog’s name and I think it’s so cool. Sorry, just had to get that in there 😀 😀 😀

@kathleenramm

I honestly think my biggest struggle with writing is balancing it with the rest of my life. I have a very all-or-nothing personality and I can go for months without…[Read more]

I’ll be around editing for a little bit…

@e-k-seaver Wow I absolutely love it! Think I might actually use it in the future, if you don’t mind. I’ll give you credit, of course.

You’re so good at making these! Do you use photoshop?

@e-k-seaver Of course I will! Thank you!

@e-k-seaver WHOOOAH! *heart eyes* That’s so cool! Thank you so much! 😀 Do you mind if I use the cover on my website book page?

@e-k-seaver

Woah. This looks incredible! How long have you been designing book covers?

@gracie-j

Being able to write with my siblings is one of the best gifts that God has given me. There’s rarely a day that goes by without me thanking God for it in my prayers. XD

But that being said, there are a couple of cons… the first that comes to my head is when there’s a disagreement. When you write on your own, you get the final say in…[Read more]

Hating my writing used to be a big obstacle for me as well. So big in fact I wrote an entire article on KP about it.XD

It’s so hard to see the amazing story in your head look so badly when it’s on the page. Then all the work and time you put into your story feels futile.

But as you said, once you get over the crippling…[Read more]

@lewilliams Oof. I kind of feel like that with the first MC of my other WIP. This is a rewrite of a story I started in… 2009? (Granted, it’s gone through a lot of changes and I maybe haven’t developed the characters quite as well as I should…) But the first MC’s voice is just awful. >.< It’s soooo flat. POVs two and three are fine. But #1……[Read more]

@gracie-j

Chapter 27 and a wedding, huh?  Does that mean it’s almost finished?

What’s the premise? (I’m assuming his-fic is the genre? 😉 )

So, are you looking for a full orchestra or an ensemble, or a harpsichord or what?  I personally do not find harpsichords soothing, but everyone has their tastes. 😛

@gracie-j

I’m attempting to do some outlining.

I don’t like outlining. 😛

What are you working on?

@seekjustice @gracie-j

Hey there!  Are either of you still around?

Anyone around? I’m just working on some blog posts 😀

@gracie-j @jenwriter17 @rochellaine @valtmy @alia

@e-k-seaver Cool. ;D (I do the same thing, lol.) I appreciate you sharing the article’s conclusion! It allowed me to work out my thoughts on it more concretely, and it’s definitely a valid observation to be considered with everything else. 🙂

Also, if you’re interested: I posted this on the Story Embers forums, too, and Daeus Lamb recommended the…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver That’s true… I personally think it’s unlikely, though. He created humans specifically, giving them alone the breath of life and dominion over the rest of creation. Plus, I feel like creating life-like AI could have an underlying current of trying to be like God, which would be a no-go. And even if not, I don’t think humans have the…[Read more]

@le-williams I know. This is just one of the WIPs where I’d prefer to have more description and to go more in-depth with character voice. There are other stories where it doesn’t bother me as much. 🙂

It’s in 3rd person limited, with several different POVs. A couple of them are easier to get into than others. (Unfortunately, those are the two…[Read more]

@leon-fleming Thank you! 🙂

What was your starting point for the mythology in your main fantasy project? Was there something specific that sparked it?

Ah, yes, Into the Deep was the one I heard about. Was there anything in particular about Greek mythology that caught your attention?

Lost Girl is more of a short story or a novella, actually. I…[Read more]

I’m not much of a linguist (or a cartographer, for that matter… While I used to love fictional cartography, now I tend to make maps only out of necessity since I’m not very good at it. XD), but I definitely love the worldbuilding aspect of fantasy. I find cultures and mythologies especially fun to develop, and I love using them to explore…[Read more]
