Hahaha!!!!! I think it’s brilliant!

Awww, your poor characters!!!! I want to read this story so much!

@elfwing

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!!!!!

@elfwing

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

@elfwing

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!

HoW aM I sUPPosED To chOoSE?!?!?

I probably use too many tbh, and I haven’t really thought about it until rn… Anyhow!!!! I actually agree with what @joy-caroline said about the “found family” trope! I was thinking about it the onther day and realized that I think every story I’ve every written may have that trope XD And I totally…[Read more]

@power

…Woah, I don’t even know what to say.

These are amazing (HUGE understatement)!!!!! I’m no poet, but I like to dabble in poetry every once in a while! And when I do, I definitely enjoy it! It sounds like you really do! Is it bad to say I relate to the words you wrote a lot??? XD

Are you a poet?? Have you written anything else? If so,…[Read more]

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]

@elfwing

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]

@jodi-maile

Oh, sorry I haven’t been on here for a while!!!!

LOL yes!!! Story ranting is awesome! And characters are probably my favorite part of writing!!!!!!!!!

@jodi-maile

LOLLLL Thank you so much!!! I will totally let you read and critique it once I finish a few more scenes!

Heh, your dream movie sounds right up my alley! And yeah! That’s pretty much why I’m a panster!!! I’ll be writing a happy scene then all of a sudden one of the charries breaks down crying, “It was me! I was the one who killed your…[Read more]

@jodi-maile

Ha!!! Yeah, I don’t have an outline! I’m a panster so I don’t usually form an outline for a while! I personally have always liked fantasy and action shows and movies!!!! So the one I’m working on right now is like a twisted fairy tale kind of show! It follows four siblings–Goldilocks, Peter Pan, Robin Hood, and Red Riding Hood–The…[Read more]

@jodi-maile

After watching The Avengers, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and various other movies and TV shows, I’ve always been interested in making my own films!!! I’ve written a few scripts and short plays for school projects and have really enjoyed it! Sometimes when I need to work on dialogue for a book, I will write a script first so I can be…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

I do the same thing with my outline!!! My characters are even more random than me! XD

@kathleenramm

LOLLLL I definitely would steal my antagonist’s hat!!! It’s a pirate hat with a feather, jewels, and gold trimming so… even if I get slashed with a cutlass, it will totally be worth it! XD

Though I’m a little worried she might think the store is a stationary pirate ship with a TON of cargo! And she might challenge the manager to…[Read more]

@anatra23

Oooooh!!!! Beginnings are usually simple for me! But for some reason I could. not. figure. this. one. out! Thank you so much for the tips! I love starting in the middle of dialogue!!!! That always catches my attention! XD

@hobbitchild

I can see this is from a long time ago, so I have no idea if you’ll see this!!! But, hi!!!!!! I’m here! A little late to the party, but recently I’ve been interested in making my own TV show and possibly posting it on YouTube.

A documentary sounds cool! I’m not a huge fan of documentaries, but one about a theatre camp sounds pretty…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Ahhhhhh!!!!!! Thank you so much! I needed to hear that! I think getting your ideas out and writing notes on the side is a good idea! And yes, I do have an outline! However, I’m a little worried that my plot has changed and I’ll have to fix it! But I’ll figure it out! Thanks, again!!! <3
