Glad to hear it. 😉

Okay. You need help. Just getting to a good place to start? Prioritizing your ideas? What?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 Yyyyyes???

@That_Writer_Girl_99 heh. Yes indeed. 🙂

@Daeus @That_Writer_Girl_99 can I join you for a bit? I got permission to do some writing in the daytime and so I’m going to be working on my climax until around four. 😀

@That_Writer_Girl_99 here… have a snippet to give you a few ideas.

That was it. They could do whatever they liked about him. But they were not going to touch Denholm. A murderous spark ignited at the base of his throat, and suddenly a great warm, eager humming swelled and filled his mind, pressing outward through the boundaries and seeking an…

@That_Writer_Girl_99 ha! 😀 I can get on board with that… *stands heroically on the verge of a deserted island with the wind streaming through her hair and her weird Jedi robes* May the force be with you. 😛 😉

Ahhhh… yes. Elemental fight scenes. *laughs* I can so relate. The MC of my WIP is also a fire Elemental, though not in the same way…[Read more]

@GracieGirl yep. And it’s usually the protagonist. *scowls*

Also, I named the character I chose her for… Ira Netzen. *grins* This poor girl is going to have such a split personality… 😛 XD

@That_Writer_Girl_99 well, any backstory you might want to fill in. Hints at the Warden’s involvement with the Elementals. (Which could also double as foreshadowing). Stories about the Catastrophes… little pieces of silence to fill in the things that Matthias knows, as a spy of the Warden, but isn’t allowed to tell the others. Just to deepen the…[Read more]

@GracieGirl NO! MINE. *snatches and glares*

XD Okay… I guess… *reluctantly gives her to you* Take care of her though… and if she acts weird on and off, don’t worry, because for me she’s a villain. :’D

@GracieGirl ah, yes. Homeschooling, as wonderful as it is, can definitely be stressful at times. I’ll be praying. 🙂

The nose too. If you’re brave enough to snarl at yourself in a mirror, notice how the nose humps in the middle and wrinkles at the bridge.

@Alia *chokes* Erm… haha… XD Well, don’t be afraid to draw it crooked and off center. Sometimes the impression is more important than accuracy. Also don’t overdraw the mouth— a few well-placed lines are better than the whole outline, which can sometimes look static and lifeless. As for snarls in particular… quick hint. More than half of a…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 she could approach Matthias about it… but it would be better, I think, if you did end up having the sparring scene, and as she’s walking in she overhears something, and then tries to get the info out of him while they’re sparring. His continued avoidance will only heighten her curiosity, giving you a great opportunity to get…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 okay. That’s fine. It’s good to know your limits. We don’t want you burning out. 😉

Wellll… since you want to stick to Kara’s pov, maybe she could overhear some guards talking about what happened? Or perhaps she hears Matthias talking to a guard, receiving or giving a message from/to the Warden. This gives her suspicions…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 again, my apologies… *clears throat meekly* Telepathic dragon in the making here; I was practicing and got it wrong. *mysterious wink*

Moving on now.

No, you’re right. That’s not enough to drive an entire chapter. Unless something important happens in the sparring room, I would say cut it entirely. Writing is about change,…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 My apologies. That’s what would have gotten me stuck. XD
*ahem* How are you stuck?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 switch POVs.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I’ll give him a shot. 🙂

@Ethryndal King @Daeus has spoken…

@Daeus shhhhh! Don’t scare the newbies!

Ah well… guess it’s too late for that. *sighs**blinks scaled eyelids happily* Yes indeed @That_Writer_Girl_99… did I fail to mention? I’m a dragon. *accidentally ignites her mug of tabasco sauce with laughing*
