Maybe it has to do with your mood? Because I know in my case, my writing style can change if my mood is different from the last time that I sat down to write.

I agree with @daeus. It is important to make sure that your character’s voice has personality and that the personality stays consistent throughout the narrative.

In general, I prefer how 1st person narratives sound in a story, and I’m very excited that you’ve decided to jump out of your comfort zone and try something new!

@Daughteroftheking ooh, that’s wacky, but I like it! Great points already so far… I’ll just add that it might not be such a bad thing for the reader to think Rori’s a little off her rocker. As @Catwing said, it gives a curiosity factor.

@Dragon-Watcher heyyyy! Another dragon! Or… *gasp* Are you a dragon hunter??? Do you watch them to hunt them??? *hides behind wings and blinks at you with frightened reptilian eyes* Please. I’m harmless.

*coughs* Hello. Is it safe to assume you write fantasy? So do I. I think the majority of KeePers do, so you’re in good company. 😉 What are…[Read more]

@Daeus okay. Thanks. 😀 *writes it down on her list*

@Daeus drat. If you didn’t like that one I was gonna do it. ;P

XD @That_Writer_Girl_99 unfortunately the rest of my family sets very high priorities on food.

*shrugs* Well… if we want pizza this winter we need the sauce, so… *grins*

@That_Writer_Girl_99 unfortunately not. :'( We’ve been canning tomatoes today and consequently I have a lot of work to catch up on.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 oooh, I really like them! Very nice. 🙂

@Catwing kewl. 😀
