Lydia S. started the topic Inspo Exchange in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 2 months ago

Hey, ya’ll!

Lydia, here. 🙂 So, I thought it’d be fun to start an inspiration exchange thread!

This is a place where we can all dump interesting photos or dialog prompts we happen to find or come up with, and it’s also somewhere where we can resort to if we need inspiration! Post as many prompts/pictures as you’d like, but please make sure they…[Read more]

Jodi Maile started the topic Choosing a Writing Platform?? in the forum Publishing & Platform 2 years, 5 months ago

Hello, my friends! It’s been a minute since I was last on here. I’ve missed you all!

I have a question for any of you who have tried writing platforms similar to Wattpad, for context. I recently finished co-writing a book with my sister and we’re not sure what we want to do with it yet, so we’ve decided to try uploading it to a writing site over…[Read more]

Madelyn started the topic What Makes An Allegory Impactful? in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 2 years, 5 months ago

Hey y’all!

So, I’m dipping my toes into allegories…

Who am I kidding, I’m diving right in!!

I would love all y’all’s input on this subject! Namely, what are some of your favorite Christian allegorical stories and what made them impactful? What parts drove to your heart? Narnia is definitely on the top of my list of Christian allegories, so i…[Read more]

Faith Q. started the topic Y'all help me storm my brain!!!! in the forum Plotting 2 years, 6 months ago

Okay, y’all, I need a brainstorming partner… or two… or as many as I can find, haha…

It’ll actually be for two separate projects. One is a middle-grade contemporary novel, and the other is a YA fantasy. If you’re up for helping me brainstorm, either (or both!) need work, so anyone who can, pretty much? I’ll give the tags here, and then put…[Read more]

@elanor Alas! I suppose this means that our little game has come to a close. *blows nose loudly into a hanky* Well, as you said, it was fun. Thanks for sharing!

Aww, thank you so much, @elanor ! I’m going to post it tomorrow! 😃
That’s a beautiful reason to live poetry. It does seem to do that. Happy writing as well!

Lol yes, @elanor, thank you again!

EmilySF started the topic I need help, please! in the forum Plotting 2 years, 6 months ago

My most current WIP has been coming along really well, and I’ve got a lot figured out, but now I’m struggling with one point.

(I don’t know where to start.)

It is crucial that my MC die in the story (crazy, I know), and he is killed by the antagonist.

My MC has two gifts/abilities which makes him very unique and powerful. He believes that with…[Read more]

Power replied to the topic Scars, a poem in the forum Poetry 2 years, 6 months ago

@elanor I Like it!!! The end is so satisfying. *Sits back in chair, sighs, grins*

Ya, the baboon poem was. . . interesting.

I understand about the idea pop into head thing. My problem is the opposite though. My brain is like forging a sword, I must strike while the iron is hot. If I don’t, the iron stops glowing, and I tend to forget my…[Read more]

And thank you, @elanor, for finally getting me to sign up! It certainly took me long enough, but here I am! 🙂 (Also thank you so much for the chocolates! they were sublime! :D)

Emily_D replied to the topic Hey in the forum Start HERE 2 years, 6 months ago

@kathleenramm Yes~creating new worlds and seeing where the story leads!! How about for yourself??

@elanor I’m not entirely sure how I would classify it. I would probably say more like historical fiction in a fantasy setting, but without the fantasy element… which probably makes no sense LOL I used to write poetry, but I haven’t written any for…[Read more]

Madelyn replied to the topic How Do You Turn a Spark Into a Blaze? in the forum Plotting 2 years, 6 months ago

@elanor

Mmm, yes, the title was very misleading. I take full responsibility for crushed dreams and severed hopes 😋

Hey, you and me both!! I guess we just hang out here and try to start fires while we wait for the people of wisdom-ness to show up 😉 (maybe someone could a teach to how to start a fire too… I’m not even good with matches XD)

Madelyn started the topic How Do You Turn a Spark Into a Blaze? in the forum Plotting 2 years, 6 months ago

If you clicked on this topic because of the interesting title, I feel obliged to tell you first off that this is not about the practice of fire starting 🔥

Sorry to disappoint you, but, please, stick around!! 😉

Today I have a simple question for y’all:
How do you go from an semi-fleshed-out idea to a real plot? How do you build a bridge from a s…[Read more]
