I’m pretty sure I have more, but here’s nine.

1. NO. MATURE. RELATIONSHIPS. BETWEEN. CHILDREN. I have read about 2 books ever that had elementry/middle school relationships well written. I don’t care if in real life 12 year olds date. I don’t want to read about it.
2. Love at first sight. It’s not love, it’s just attraction.
3. Why are…

@esther-c

I agree with @koshka and @elishavet-pidyon

I would also add,

1. A lot of physical contact before marriage

2. Only being able to have a relationship when alone. I prefer that one of the first times this couple is alone is when he asks her to marry him. Show them getting to know each others families, hanging out at church, spending…[Read more]

Livia

“Livia, are you okay?”

She blinked hard, still refusing to make eye contact.

She formed the moisture into the form of a horse, letting it gallop around on her palm.

She missed Xandro. 

She let the water fall off her hand and into the churning waters below.

Finally, she let out a shuddering sigh, and turned to face…[Read more]

@esther-c

Ohhhh yeah I understand!!!

Still, I change my book so many times that I’m used to it lollll

YAYYYYYYYYY I’m so excited!!!!!!

@esther-c

Oh boy

1. Guys who are too possessive. I dislike this because there’s a fine line between protectiveness and… almost this sense of greed? The guy will only want the girl for himself and hates on anything that takes up some of her attention.

2. The ideally sweet, quiet, kind girl. Especially if they are the character without a poi…[Read more]

@esther-c

Naw, you’re good! I haven’t touched that one in a while actually. It’s a completed first draft, I’ve just been too scared to edit it. 🫣😂 I’m actually drafting a contemporary NA romance that starts in the Midwest but mostly takes place in ✨i t a l y✨. I started it in November, but I’m not even halfway through yet. I didn’t make writing…

Awww Lukas is so cuteeeeee! I love himmm

Livia

“Hey, Liv.”

Lukas crossed the courtyard, his hands in his pockets, a blush creeping into his cheeks.

It had been so long since they’d talked…she’d been in her own world lately and though she hated to admit it, she was doing it again. Shutting the people out that she loved the…[Read more]

@esther-c

*cough, cough*

*produces 100 page binder*

1. Senseless miscommunication. (Need clarification?)
2. Senseless offences (how dare she buy her favorite ice cream with her birthday money? Or how dare he not tell me he was a secret agent! Like what did you expect him to do? I get it if this isn’t cleared up until late in an…

@esther-c

1: love triangles. I fine them incredibly unrealistic and often ridiculous.

2: no communication. The entire plot should not be able to be resolved with a 5 minute conversation. Like seriously. This may be a problem in real life, but do I want to real a full 300+ pages about a couple misunderstanding each other because they aren’t…[Read more]

@theducktator

Thanks for the votes.

@hybridlore @keilah-h@rae@loopylin @theshadow@arcticanimals @Esther-c @jonas

The votes are in, and right now there’s a bit of a tie between two of the characters and the challenge, so we’re going to figure out how to decide each.

@ellette-giselle

If you can’t enter the community on Monday for whatever reason, I will wrangle up somebody to help you.

@esther-c

I’ve started to discover how hard writing contemporary can be. I have the main plot points in my head, but figuring how to get to each one without writing filler chapters has been difficult. Right now I’m just try…

Hi Esther!!! I haven’t talked to you in foreverrrr!!!

How’s your WIP going??? Is it still the one in New Mexico (sorry I feel so behind on everything here lolll)

My WIP is actually going really well, idk what it is about winter but I can always write the best in winter lol

Idk why

The vibes are just right I guess *shrugs*

@esther-c

Well if you feel like switching projects at any point during the challenge, don’t force yourself against a writing block. But that sounds like a good plan. Is this the romance with the Italian boy? 😏

I’m revitalizing this topic because CWW 2025 is on Monday! @godlyfantasy12 @koshka @esther-c @hybridlore @everyone

Okay, so right now some of the votes are tied so Kefa and I decided to extend the deadline to the 3rd, so please vote. We’ll release the results around then and hopefully have the next chapter out within the next few weeks.

Oof sorry I forgot about this!

Hope everyone had a very merry Christmas😌

The young lady padded softly into the room, slippers not making a sound as she clutched a tattered rose to her breast and a silent tear ran down her face. Crossing the room, she sat down on a stiff sofa and gently caressed the flower’s soft petals–velvety pinks and whi…[Read more]
