That’s awesome that you’re moving to Nova Scotia!:D

That sounds awesome and six novels? Wow, that’s incredible 😀 And from what I’m hearing about them, you should definitely try and publish after you polished them as much as possible, (but remember that there actually is an ‘enough is enough’ point. I know that sounds strange, bu…[Read more]

Any of you lovely ladies up for sprinting for… erm… five-ish hours? 😛 I’ll be writing off and on for the majority of this morning and this early afternoon (Long car trips are great for…[Read more]

Hi there!! @nanisnook

When I’m stuck on a scene, I’ll usually brainstorm out the problem. If something feels off or I’m really not getting into the scene, it really helps to dig down to the root of the issue before continuing. If I try to write through something like that, the problem will often show through my writing.

Jumping ahead can be the…[Read more]

@nanisnook

I usually force myself to keep going through the scene. Usually all it needs is a few hundred more words and then I’m writing freely again. Having said that, in one of my last WIPs I got really stuck at a large portion and completely skipped four or five chapters and just kept going. It depends on what works for you really.…[Read more]

Hello, and it’s nice to meet you too. I love your username, by the way!

I do like tea. (No coffee for me, please!) I like any kind that’s really flavorful, and I like my tea brewed black. My favorite kind is sweet and spicy, and I also like gingerbread tea. Oooh, and I like black tea with a little lemon juice and honey.

Oh, no. I’m…[Read more]

For some reason, I feel like I’m getting a better idea of who your guys’ character more from these three questions than most character questionnaire sheets, haha.  XD

@seekjustice

I’ve never been particularly interested in books  about werewolves, but after reading you character descriptions, that may be changing…

Definitely!

Ooh, yes, I love Chuck Black books!! Hmm, I’m not sure I’ve heard of that series. Maybe I’ll look into it!

Yeah, the Viking Quest series is awesome!! *high-fives back*

@elfwing

Thank you for understanding about that:) Moving across Canada? Wow, that’s cool:) It sounds tough, but really awesome at the same time 😀

*High five for omniscient writing!* XD Ooh, but first person is always fun too:D Though the only times I really use it are when I interview my characters or write journal entries for them or while…[Read more]

@elfwing

I really liked your points about rebellious characters and domineering girls. I see that a lot in stories nowadays (especially Disney), and I believe it’s something that needs to be called out.

Also, I agree with your points about how men and women are portrayed wrongly in fiction. Strong female characters should not mean physically str…[Read more]

Hi Elfwing! I am really sorry about this late reply, and I truly appreciate your patience with me here:)
Ooh, I LOVE the dynamics you created with the griffons and the firebirds. That’s extremely creative and intriguing! 😀
*High fives* That’s awesome! Not too many writers use omniscient, so that’s cool that you do as well. Three side…[Read more]

@elfwing Nope you’re not weird. It helps me too. XD Thanks so much for the advice, it was super helpful!

@jenwriter17 Thanks so much! Those articles helped a lot. I definitely tell myself those lies on a regular basis, and it helps to know that someone else struggles with them too.

@gracie-j Thank you!! Reading my favorite thing that I’ve wri…[Read more]

It stands for Archive of our Own, it’s a fanfic writing site/app

@elfwing

Wow, that sounds pretty cool. I actually haven’t written anything all day, I’ve been reading gen fanfics on ao3 all day xD

@elfwing

….?

No, you know what, not even going to question it.
