Ethryndal

Hey everyone! Just a head’s up that I’ll be around in about half an hour to do some editing. Anyone want to join me? @jane-maree @dragon-snapper @jenwriter17 @epicaddie2 @dekreel @rochellaine

@ethryndal This a tough one. I remember my themes changing constantly when I first began writing, because I didn’t have much idea of theme.

XD I wish I could tell you how I worked it out, but I got rid of all those stories cause they were awful.

Like Daeus said, all those themes seem related to one another, so you choose to broaden them and make…[Read more]

@Ethryndal I have actually had this problem before in the past. Basically, I second what Elizabeth has said. Don’t push yourself to keep writing while you’ve got this big problem. Sit back and work it out.

– What do you actually want the main theme to be?
– Can you revise the characters and their arcs and actions to fit that theme more…[Read more]

@Jenwriter17 Yeeah I just don’t think they actually have any good chemistry. Sure they could like each other, but an actual relationship…wouldn’t work out, in my opinion.

So…I can understand why this would be a problem, and though I’m not entirely sure what the answer is, I can offer a few thoughts and maybe they’ll help? Or not?

@pickupyourpenandwrite  I’m so very glad to hear it.  💜

@valtmy Of course, I’ll pray for you and your family. I hope God guides you on this path as you go 🙂

@skredder  I am praying for your friend.  🙂

@valtmy  Awww…you are in my prayers.  Keep on keepin’ on!

@pickupyourpenandwrite  I just saw your post from a little while ago and I wanted to let you know that I am praying for you and your family.  I cannot even imagine what that must be like for you.  I posted this before but here is a little story that I love.  It’s really encouraging to me and I hope it is for you.

One night a man had a dream. He…[Read more]

@reaganramm  You’re back!! Where have you been?! X)

Let’s see…

• I need help making my characters and character arcs more realistic and deep
• I need help making meaningful themes and symbols
• I need help with the show-don’t-tell concept
• I especially need help with self-doubt, and putting my identity in Christ instead of my work
• I need…

@ariella-newheart  Congrats!! I always love congratulating people when they move up a level 😀

*coughs*  Ahhh, you and your smoke bombs X)

@aislinn-mollisong

@anne-of-lothlorien Oh goodness. Yep. Pretty much.

@anne-of-lothlorien  *shrieks and falls off chair*  AAAA! I LOVE THAT SO MUCH!! X’D

@rochellaine I don’t usually like writing essays either, I just find it a really interesting topic.

Okay goodnight!

@rochellaine

It’s sort of for school and sort of just because I want to. No, I picked the topic 😀

@rochellaine Fair enough 😀

I’m writing about Tolkien and his service in world war one, and how it impacted the Lord of the Rings.

@epicaddie2 Okay cool 😀 Bye!

@epicaddie2 Cool, how’s it going? what’s it about?
