Kathleen replied to the topic What's the most recent book you've finished? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 7 months ago
There are some surprisingly good Star Wars books out there. Like better than the movies good.
A negative character arc? Man, I now have to order it from the library now. XD
Have you read any other Star Wars books or was Lost Stars your first?
My brother has been telling me to read Children of Hurin and the Silmarill…[Read more]

This guy sounds fascinating! His backstory is awesome, and he sounds like a genuine character. For likeability, you could:
1)Â Give the MC and Ridley something in common (a hobby, a genre of music, a favorite food, etc)
2) like @elfwing said, moments of vulnerability. That would make the reader open up to him really fast…[Read more]

Hi @elfwing!
I am not a very skilled writer compared to most, but I hope i can give you some pointers as I am familiar with emotional scenes (they’re one of my favorite scenes to write!).
This is a great scene, maybe have the first half tie into the second a little more by having Elenor say something like, “Alinna will be so happy! She thought…[Read more]

Mary G started the topic Advice for starting a Blog/Porfolio in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 7 months ago
Hey ya’ll,
As you can see by the title, I’m trying to start a Portfolio/Blog. I’m using Wix to host it. Does anyone have any tips or advice on making an engaging website, and what it should/shouldn’t include? Also, when you have a blog, I’ve read that you should stick to one topic, is that true?? Or can I write about anything I think people would…[Read more]

Daisy Torres replied to the topic reunite/first kiss in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 7 months ago
@elfwing I think it’s good! I am completely not a romance writer though, so that’s just my opinion XD I’ve only had a set of characters kiss once, and they were interrupted instantly by a dagger, so–*cough* I bet Gracie will give much better advice tho XD

I love this. It’s great.

Thank you so much for that excerpt. I really enjoyed it because you got to learn more about Kaunon. In the last one you only understood that Alinna is a brave and selfless person. But here Kaunon was also great and you could really feel his bravery as he fought the dragons and panic about how Alinna was doing.
It totally makes sense…[Read more]

Hi, I’m Lily….erm… welcome to the K.P forum (or again… like @elfwing, I’m sorta ‘new’. Â I mean, I’ve joined several months ago, heard vaguely of someone named William Starkey, but never met him… so yeah.. if you’re not him or are, then welcome!…. I think… *scratches head in confusion*).
Btw, you should know I do like…[Read more]

Haha this was great! I love it! But I wonder, do you have rules for the reverse happening? 🙂

Will_starke replied to the topic I am will starke. i do indeed be him! in the forum Start HERE 4 years, 7 months ago
Yeah. It is from walmart.
I have no idea what they are talking about either. I’m even newer to the forum than you! I’ve never been here my entire life.
I’m sorry? I don’t write poetry. I have no idea where you got that. That sounds like something @william-starkey would do, but not me.
As for my favorite color… Wait.…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Have you ever fallen out of love with writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 7 months ago
I totally get that now. My short life so far is so blessed and comfortable, but there have been some pretty low points in which my writing inspiration was most high.
Has something different ever happened to you in which you were particularly inspired to write?
Yeah, that’s exactly how I feel sometimes. But the good…[Read more]

@everyone else Your scenes are all so great!! Your stories sound so interesting.

your welcome. ooh thanks, I definitely want to know what happened to Alinna!

Precious Y replied to the topic Dramatic Scenes in the forum Plotting 4 years, 7 months ago
Your scene is really interesting. And I could feel the tension between them as Kaunon tried to make Alinna leave without him. And you could also clearly see the love between them. And I love how in this scene girl saves boy. I hope you put out more:)

Keilah H. replied to the topic Dramatic Scenes in the forum Plotting 4 years, 7 months ago
@elfwing Which scene? And your characters are all so cool! So in the first scene I had, with the battle and the character getting stabbed and everything, the character Crosshair was a human turned into a dragonman (using some method I haven’t figured out yet). It’s hard to describe Feather’s relationship to him–she kinda loves him, but is also…[Read more]
