Jean Coul replied to the topic What trope is most common in your stories? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 9 months ago
Hahaha!!!!!! Yes! My favorite romance trope is opposites attract!!!
I’ve been trying to write more morally gray characters and secret identities bc I love mystery too!!! Also love anti-villain and anti-hero tropes!!!!!

Oh!!! Peacocks!!!!!!!

Jean Coul replied to the topic non-typical critters for stories in the forum Fantasy 4 years, 9 months ago
LOLLLL glad I could help!!!
The grasshoppers in your story sound awesome! I think that’s such a cool way to incorporate such an underrated creature!!!!!
And the garden scene would be hilarious!!!!! XD
I LOVE turtles!!!!! A turtle that keeps secrets…why have I never thought of that!? I may have to use that!

@elfwing Mm yes ducks would make such cute spies. My guards would definitely let down their guard for them. If I had guards.
And yes, eat the chickens. Better than eating the horse, heheh.
And geese are absolutely terrifying they would definitely make very good watchdogs. Or turkeys. Forget peacocks turkeys would do more than just be decoration.

Lin replied to the topic non-typical critters for stories in the forum Fantasy 4 years, 9 months ago
@elfwing How about…chickens? There seems to be an underwhelming amount of chickens in fantasy except in cooking.
And ducks. And geese.

Does anyone ever see many insects in books??
Like butterflies, ants, beetles, millipedes, caterpillars (I know they’re butterflies, but I never hear about them in this form either), grasshoppers, ladybugs, bees, etc…
I’ve heard dragonflies, spiders (technically not an insect), and lightning bugs getting tons of attention. Especially…[Read more]

Jean Coul replied to the topic non-typical critters for stories in the forum Fantasy 4 years, 9 months ago
Okay, correct me if I’m wrong, but does this example work??
A frog hopped onto the desk, right next to the ring. “Aww! He’s kinda cute!” the antagonist squealed. “Why would they send me such a harmless–” the frog swallows the dark ring, full of powerful magic that the villain had worked so hard to get his hands on for years….…[Read more]

@elfwing Star Wars, Tron, Marvel, the Warriors and Wings of Fire book series….and more I don’t remember. Often I combine two different fandoms.

Keilah H. replied to the topic Character Arc chat in the forum Characters 4 years, 9 months ago
@elfwing I’ve done war stories too, sometimes. But on fanfictions, I actually find them easier than regular stories because I have readymade characters, and if I want to add more I have “templates.”

Pretty good, slacking, though.

@devastate-lasting lolll mood T_T

@devastate-lasting haha biggest mood ever, my crime novel is feeling the effects of that XD

Ah, doing good! Currently trying to get out of writers’ burnout though… *sighs*
-
@writerlexi1216 aw, that sucks. 🙁 i’m kinda having burnout too. will pray <3 #burnoutbuddies

-
@scripter-of-kingdoms I’m doing good. 🙂 Been writing the first draft of my spy novel for more than a month and have about 6 or 7,000 words written. (It’s a slow process. XD)
-
@mkfairygirl aw, that’s awesome to hear! i’m glad it’s going well 😀 (yeah i understand, writing can be SO slow XD)
-
-
@gracie-j Yeah, but are you r e a l l y alive, or just living? XD
-
@gracie-j the blunt way you just… stated that… says you aren’t really…
-
@gracie-j *cries because this is the biggest mood ever*
-
@gracie-j Aww I’m sorryy, wanna hear a good joke to make you feel *more* alive? (Also for real, any time you wanna talk I’m here <3 you have my email)
-
I’m doing great! I’m further along in my novel than I’ve been in any other I’ve started and I’m still going strong… granted, I’m only 16,000-ish words into it, but still… All glory be to God! How’s life in your corner of the globe?
-
@faith-q aw, that’s great!! i’m SUPER happy to hear that!! yes and amen. <3 things are going along well! i've got a lot on my plate writing-wise at the moment, but i'm trying to take things slow and actually do some plotting + expansion of my series. thanks for asking! 🙂
-
-
@scripter-of-kingdoms Life is pretty swell at the moment! I’m busy fighting off the urge to rewatch the entirety of Loki at the moment, but that’s just life. 😛 How about you? How’s writing? How’s life? It’s good to talk to you!

@lewilliams LOL that’s good to hear! are you super into marvel? (at least i’m 70% sure loki is marvel LOL) i’m good! my life and writing are basically the same thing at the moment.

@scripter-of-kingdoms Heh, you could say that 😛 Yeah, I was referring to the Loki TV show on Disney+ (which yes, you are correct–it is Marvel), which has quickly become one of my favorite shows ever.

@lewilliams Oh, fun! My dad’s been binge-watching that show, LOL. Aw, thank you for the encouragement!! Yeah, I agree with that – I’m gonna try to do more on the plotting side of things until I feel I’m ready to write again. 🙂 AND THANK YOU!!!!! Awww, confetti! YAY! *scoops it up in handfuls* Haha, I’m ambitious. XD Yep, Bren’s in that series!…[Read more]

Person A: Why did the cow jump over the moon?
Person B: Idk why?
Person A: Because the milkmaid had cold hands-

pfft… that is true… but i couldn’t come up with such a great person all on my own 😉

Kads that was smoooth XDD

@daisy-torres LOL thank you. 😉

@gracie-j Ooof okay I see. That’s rough. I’m doing the parent-taught course, where my parents just let me drive and tutor me as I go, and when I’m done and they confirm I’m a decent driver, I take an official test.
-
I’m doing good! Finally getting into a writing routine, (about time… XD ). Anyhow, how about you?
-
@abigail-m Oh, that’s good to hear! How are Meija and Filip doing? 😛 I’m doing… okay-ish, I’ve been burned out lately, what with finishing my first novel, so am trying to do some plotting for my next WIP. 🙂 Hoping to jump back into writing soon, though. Fingers crossed 🤞
-
Hi!:D (Very late reply, I apologize for that), Mejia and Filip are doing pretty good right now, (I mean despite a few arguments, fights, and a near-death experience), they’ve been getting along great:) XD It always makes me really happy when someone remembers my characters, so thank you for asking!!
Aw, I’m sorry to hear you’ve been burned out!…[Read more]

@gracie-j Ooof I FELT that. I’m trying to hang in there too tho XD We can do it *confetti for the future*
They don’t do it?? Sorryyy! I have a friend that did the ‘official’ drivers ed (I’m assuming like what you’re doing) and she said it was pretty complicated and hard to drive back and forth all the time. Sorryy XD You got this though!!!
-
@gracie-j *takes chocolate* Thankkss!
Oooh lovelyy ;-; How long would it take to do your courses and Driver’s ed? It sounds like you need some chocolate too XD *snaps the bar in half*
-
@gracie-j Oof girl! Good luck with that!! (I totally agree with you XD Reading is more fun when it gets your imagination going XD) You can do it though! I’m not sure how you will, but you will XD
-
@gracie-j Absolutely!!

That sounds like a beautiful story! I love stories that explore themes and struggles but always have a light of hope from God. Those are the most impactful and memorable stories for me.
How did you get the idea for the story?
