@kathleenramm Ah, yeah, this is probably the reason why I don’t really like superhero movies…though yes, I do see people like that, and also for wish-fulfillment, but what’s writing without a little
a load ofÂangst? -

I also like the Chosen One hero, but sometimes I feel like it’s a bit over done in fantasy and dystopian novels.
Yeah, I definitely agree about anti-heros. I really like strong and inspiring characters, that although are from from perfect, are still striving for good.
And this is probably one of the most popular…[Read more]

Well, I’m a little late to the conversation but I’m keen to get on board! I’m not much of a romance writer (or reader) and my kiss scenes are so awkward and stilted, lol. Any tips for the twenty-year-old who hasn’t got past the “ew, boys are gross” stage of life?

@gracie-j Ahem. Yes. I used to do the “He kissed her.” thing. Recently I’ve been trying to take some advice in, uh, describing it. Me, trying to describe what it feels like out of my own imagination:
I also tend to cut things short, so you’ll probably be ending up with like a paragraph long thing. But yea, I might give it another try next time I…[Read more]

@nanisnook Yes, very red.
@gracie-j Mm…maybe, maybe. You’ve seen how I skimp on descriptions. I mean…I guess if I can imagine kiss scenes…that might…hmmm….
Ah, yes, GWTW was very very spicy. And also, mood about cheek-kissing.
1. I’m sure there are, haha. I wouldn’t call the first scene…[Read more]

@gracie-j Ah, shoot, I left for too long and my post disappeared…never mind.
Pfft, thanks for tagging me, even with what you know about me. I like to feel included.
Ah, before I read your scene I don’t think I’ve read a kiss scene for maybe 6 years? Not sure. And usually I either avert my eyes during movies or watch with some sort of wide-eyed…[Read more]

@daisy-torres Ey, thanks for making this, girl! This’ll make me more motivated to write, I think!

@kathleenramm Hm…I’d say that I don’t like the overpowered hero. The hero that easily defeats anything that comes in his way, doesn’t have any character development except getting stronger, makes the villains look like wimps, etc. There isn’t really anything likable about them except maybe they look cool, and you can fully expect that they win.

What is your least favorite type of hero? The chosen one, the reluctant hero, the antihero, etc. Why do you dislike it?
For me, it would be coward hero. The hero that runs away from anything even slightly intimidating yet still ends up winning at the end.And I’m not just talking about the hero that starts our scared, and then has a character…[Read more]

Jenna Terese replied to the topic Second Draft Blues in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 5 months ago
I hear ya! When I feel like that I usually try to remember my WHY. My big goal. WHY am I working on this project? Does it have a message I want people to see? Do I want to prove to myself that I can finish a hard project? Always figure out why you write every story and sometimes remembering that is enough to keep you going.
I’ve…[Read more]

Oh, I don’t believe I’ve heard of those movies before! they sound quite interesting.
Oh, I would totally count telepathy as a superpower. And also water powers or snow powers would be super cool.
Also, your WIP sounds super cool! Feel free to share more with us in the WIP chat thread!
