SeekJustice replied to the topic Writing Kiss Scenes in the forum Romance 3 years, 7 months ago
Ok, so I had a go at rewriting the scene and it was actually quite fun! I felt like I saw a side of the two characters that I didn’t see when I was originally writing the first draft. (by the way, this is an enemies to lovers relationship, which I know you love!)
And then they weren’t dancing anymore. They were standing in the…[Read more]

None of my men are keen on showers or cologne unfortunately, it comes of being pirates, werewolves and revolutionaries for the most part 😛
Alright, you asked for it… 😀
They stood there for several seconds, as if stunned by the performance they’d just put on, hands clasped together like they hadn’t been since their wedding day…[Read more]

Well, I’m a little late to the conversation but I’m keen to get on board! I’m not much of a romance writer (or reader) and my kiss scenes are so awkward and stilted, lol. Any tips for the twenty-year-old who hasn’t got past the “ew, boys are gross” stage of life?

SeekJustice replied to the topic What was your favorite and least favorite thing about the last book you read in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 8 months ago
@kathleenramm I’ve only read two of his superhero sci-fi books and they were all right, but not brilliant. So far, that’s been my impression of Sanderson, all right but not brilliant. I will keep reading though!

SeekJustice replied to the topic If you got to be a screen writer for a movie, what type of movie would it be? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 8 months ago
@kathleenramm Definitely a historical movie! Not so much a period drama (not like in the style of any of the Jane Austen/Jane Eyre/romance movies) but more like a biopic (or those movies that aren’t about real people but kind of have the biopic style), I guess. I’ve always dreamed of making a movie about the Wright Brothers in particular! There’s…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic What was your favorite and least favorite thing about the last book you read in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 8 months ago
Interesting question! The last book I read was The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson, which I finished yesterday! I think my favourite thing was how fleshed out the two main characters (Vin and Kelsier) were! I loved reading about them and rooting for them!
My least favourite thing was how long it was. That put me off reading it f…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic First Thing You Wrote in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 8 months ago
My very first novel was about anthropomorphic otters and was a typical revolution type story. I still have it somewhere and I’ve been desperately looking for the USB that has the story on it for months!

@gracie-j I’m so sorry I completely forgot about a post for you! Sadly, between KP articles, work and my studying, I barely have time for my own blog and I’m going to have to back out, if that’s ok. I’d definitely still be up to doing a post swap with you sometime though. Once again, I’m so sorry! I have this awful habit of taking on way too much…[Read more]

@kayleigh-idea Hello there! I’m a fellow blogger over at https://anordinarypen.wordpress.com/ I’m a bit patchy with updating ever since I got a grown up job, but I do what I can 😀

I love this topic already! @devestate-lasting @abigail-m yours sound amazing! I love the line “She couldn’t remember the last time she saw daylight” because its so eerie and confusing and immediately makes me think “What the heck?” but also makes me think of the arctic/antarctic (which I think is what you’re going for) so it grounds…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Rock Climbing Scene…Help! in the forum Plotting 3 years, 9 months ago
Yep, that’s a completely believable scenario. I once went abseiling (like rock climbing but opposite) and I actually did fall off the cliff. Thankfully though, harnesses exist so no harm was done and I just had to climb back up again, but if I’d been in the position where I didn’t have a harness for whatever reason, I would have been…[Read more]

What are you doing still awake at that time???It’s about the 1910 air race from Dover to Paris, it’s a comedy from the 60s and I found it very funny.

I’m just watching a movie and I desperately need to know if you’ve seen These Magnificent Men and Their Flying Machines? I don’t like old movies that much, as you know, but I’m really enjoying this one and it seems exactly like your cup of tea.

sorry its taken me so long to get back to you! If you’re still interested, I have two characters you could do.
Mere is the main character from my current WIP. It’s a pirate type adventure book, and Mere is white (with a huge amount of freckles), seventeen, and has very long, very curly auburn/ginger hair. She’s a very…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Reading Suggestions in the forum Book Discussions 3 years, 9 months ago
In classics, I would 100% recommend A Tale of Two Cities (my favourite book of all time), Hard Times, and Little Dorrit by Charles Dickens. The last two are lesser known Dickens books, but so good! There’s also a BBC miniseries of Little Dorrit if you enjoy that sort of thing. Les Miserables by Victor Hugo. Frankenstein, by Mary Shell…[Read more]
