Whoa, lots of awesome responses – one thing I’ll add is that it can be nice to focus on more than just one sense. If you usually describe the way the tears burn in the back of your character’s eyes, then mention the way the tears glint in the moonlight. If your habit is to describe how hoarse your character’s voice is, then show their…[Read more]

I just got here and I’m probably quite late, but with describing characters crying, you can use less common bodily responses to strong emotion then just tears. Things like a lump in your throat, trails of watery snot coming out the nose, dry heaving. This could just be a me thing, but sometimes I hear a soft popping noise in my ears when…[Read more]

WAIT. YOU’RE— OH! I totally hadn’t connected you to this username! Hi! XD 😀

@trahia-the-minstrel

Your WIP sounds so good! And don’t be too afraid that you don’t write. My first/second drafts of my novels always turn out horrible, but it’s a learning process and I’m able to correct them later.

Okay, so starting a blog isn’t exactly easy. I would recommend using either Wix for fast setup, or WordPress.com (but not…[Read more]

Do you guys mind if I jump in? Sorry I haven’t been super active on the forum recently, and may not have replied to anything you said. I’ve been taking a huge break from things over the Christmas/New Years holidays.

As well as binging Keeper of the Lost Cities. The who…[Read more]

@elfwing

LOL that would be a great meme!

How many characters do you kill?! The way you’re talking it sounds like all your characters end up dead by the end of the story.

@elfwing Haha relatablee. That’s pretty much what happens with most my historical-fic stuff too haha. But if you ever finish it, that sounds really unique and interesting!! I’d love to read it!!!

@annabelle I absolutely will!!! I’d love to have you read it XD

Aghh struggles XD There are sooo many books I want to write and so little timeee…[Read more]

@elfwing

Fantasy is so cool, and I’ve always wanted to write it. I’ve started several fantasy novels, but never finished them.

Yasss, killing is so satisfying! (Though the way I just said that sounded really evil LOL). I like love stories too, but only when there’s some sort of conflict between two characters falling in love with one character.…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Ahhh I loveee that idea for your WIP!! I’m plotting a story set in the 70s myself. I feel like there aren’t enough young adult novels set in the not-to-far-away past XD

@elfwing hehe you would be absolutely right to tag me XD

@elfwing

Ooh, your WIP is so cool! I can relate to the evil writer mentality. I’m killing off my main character’s twin sister in the second book in my series, and I’m considering killing her boyfriend. (oops, sorry, that was a spoiler).

*gasps* So I’m not the only teen mermaid lover!!! @daisy-torres, WE NEED TO TALK!!!

@faith-q

I agree with what @elfwing said about respecting the government, but always putting God’s commands first. As far as I understand it (which admittedly may not be much) we are to obey and respect our leaders, but we are not to obey anything which goes against the Bible or what God decrees. Think about the early Christians — they res…[Read more]

Okay. I’m going back to the gym now. This was way too much nerdy book stuff for one day.

IT’S LEG DAY BABY LEZZ GOOOO!

@elfwing

Yes, I absolutely think it is amazing!! And that sounds awesome 😀
(I’d definitely recommend watching the film, it’s incredible:)

@elfwing

Yay! My reason for writing too!😁😄😊
