Yes, Norway and Russia is a fantastic places for settings, (I haven’t done Norway yet myself). I’m no professor, but if you ever have any questions about ancient Russia, I might be able to help.

I really enjoy it! I mean, I’ve only had the opportunity to read ‘The Magician’s Nephew’ and ‘The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe’ fully, and am currently on ‘The Horse and His Boy’, which has been neat! The only problem I have with Narnia is that I can’t live there XD
Oh, neat! I’ve been writing a long time, too 🙂
First of all,…[Read more] -

LOL!! 😆
That’s the hardest thing for me, because I don’t know how quickly to start it. Some people write the inciting incident in their first chapter and some write it in the third, lol!! (I personally agree with you on that)

I totally will, thanks!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! That’s SUPER helpful!!!! I agree, first lines tend to hook readers. I do spend a lot of time on that, but I don’t want to overdue it. (I have read some books where it seems like the author spent two years writing the first line, lol!! &#x…[Read more]

Hey peoples!!! I am currently in that “writing-the-first-chapter-that-turns-out-to-be-a-dud-FIVE-THOUSAND-TIMES” phase… I may be over-exaggerating a little, but I’m sure y’all have felt like that before… 😄

I also use Scrivener, which I love!! So helpful. I’ll attach a screenshot below to show y’all how it works.
You have parts, chapters, and scenes (as @godlyfantasy12 mentioned) that you can create. There are also character and setting sketches. It’s basically to help keep you organized while you’re writing. (You can also change the color sche…[Read more]

Well that’s actually an interesting story (okay maybe it’s not interesting) XD.
Actually ancient Russia has a lot to do with my WIP.
Though I love fantasy, I wanted to keep fantasy out of my novel for a few reasons concerning plot, but I needed a place that snowed most of the year (if not all year), was frigidly cold and had cer…[Read more] -

Man, everyones replies are way too relatable. XD
Well, if makes you feel any better, what you described is also a pretty accurate description of my brain.
Haha, yes, I totally relate to the “productive” procrastination. Like when I don’t feel like writing a scene so I just create character boards on Pinterest. You…[Read more]
