EpicAddie2 replied to the topic If you got to be a screen writer for a movie, what type of movie would it be? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 1 month ago
@kathleenramm Ooh, this is a good question! I’ve tried writing scripts before but they kind of flopped. I still wanna finish one at some point though XD
I think it’d be suuuuper fun to write a screenplay for historical fiction or fantasy (an epic script like LOTR? yes please). And like @gracie-j said, PIRATES. It would be SO MUCH FUN to write a…[Read more]

EpicAddie2 replied to the topic What do you do when you feel discouraged and feel like giving up? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 1 month ago
@kathleenramm When I start feeling discouraged I’ll usually spend some time praying about it and take a short break from writing. I think for me when I’m feeling discouraged it’s usually because I’m comparing myself to other writers or I feel like I’m not working hard enough on my WIP. Usually it’s simply a matter of readjusting my focus.

@kathleenramm I guess usually I just tell myself I’m too tired, and I go on and work on one of my other hobbies for a few months. Or I switch it up. Variety helps a lot.

What do you do when you feel discouraged and feel like giving up a novel or writing as a whole?
When I get discouraged, I first try to figure out why. Why am I feeling discouraged? Sometimes the answer is different, but most of the time its because I feel like my writing isn’t “good enough”. Which seems kinda silly, but it’s also a super common…[Read more] -

That’s really interesting how you thought Xavier was awful, but everyone liked him! You must be a better writer than you think.
That was one of my favorite books when I was nine! I haven’t read it recently, but I still have fond memories of it and of course Sage.
Interesting thought! I guess there might be…[Read more]

Wow, this is from a little while ago. 😛 Thanks! I’m glad you like it.
I agree, Kipling’s poems are very good. Now I should go back and read some, since I haven’t read any of his works in a while. 😉 My favorite poet of the droll variety is probably A.A. Milne, though. What do you think of his stuff?
Thank you! …[Read more]

@gracie-j Thank you! I haven’t exactly tried writing a blurb for any one thing of my series, but I think now’s a good time to try.

@kathleenramm I’ve only read two of his superhero sci-fi books and they were all right, but not brilliant. So far, that’s been my impression of Sanderson, all right but not brilliant. I will keep reading though!

@daisy-torres Ahhh might I suggest you a thing called DeepL Translate? It works so much better than Google Translate for Chinese-English translations…

@daisy-torres Dang, girl… That is a lot! While, I, too, have several books planned to write in Chinese, I have not attempted that yet… If you need me to check anything, feel free to ask!
Take a break! That is a lot!

@kathleenramm No, I haven’t tried. The time that I did try writing a story for a kid it ended up being kinda dark…thank goodness she couldn’t read…
My sister did write a kid’s book when she was a kid though! We’re probably all used to writing books for our age groups, haha…

Yes, I definitely agree about not having to read heavy material all the time. Sometimes, if I read too much heavy stuff it weighs on me and even gives me insomnia. Not that heavier books are bad, (they can teach you a lot of things), but too much of anything isn’t good.
So yeah, I too like to read a good children’s book here…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic If you got to be a screen writer for a movie, what type of movie would it be? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 1 month ago
@kathleenramm Definitely a historical movie! Not so much a period drama (not like in the style of any of the Jane Austen/Jane Eyre/romance movies) but more like a biopic (or those movies that aren’t about real people but kind of have the biopic style), I guess. I’ve always dreamed of making a movie about the Wright Brothers in particular! There’s…[Read more]

Interesting question! The last book I read was The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson, which I finished yesterday! I think my favourite thing was how fleshed out the two main characters (Vin and Kelsier) were! I loved reading about them and rooting for them!
My least favourite thing was how long it was. That put me off reading it f…[Read more]
