@xonos-darkgrate By sub-plots, I basically mean adding in side characters with their own intertwining stories. I also mean how the main events John Huss experiences affect the many different areas of his life. For instance, you could build a subplot around a book he is writing, or a friendship he has with a small child, or a theological dilemma…[Read more]

@xonos-darkgrate That sounds like a great idea. You might want to read the book Trial And Triumph. It’s a novel about John Huss, and I really liked it. I would also highly recommend you read Rora. It’s a real-life story of a Waldensian resistance fighter with added details to bring it to life. It might give you some ideas, especially on how to…[Read more]

@raevynstar He sounds good to me. 😀 The one thing I would point out is that sometimes writers will make these types of characters mopey. It’s fine for characters to be sorrowful and introspective, but they must have a strong goal they are pursuing at the same time, or it will be hard to root for them.

@dragon-snapper That’s right. You got it.

@raevynstar Hi Raevyn. Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.

It’s always cool to meet other poets out there. You’ll have to share one of your pomes with us sometime.

Btw, do you know what your personality type is?

@xonos-darkgrate Yep, the narrative voice is sweet.

@Daeus don’t hesitate to poke me if I forget— I’ve got about a million things swirling around in my head lately. 😛

@jess-penrose I had no idea people raved about my books. I’ll have to write more of them. lol

@kate-flournoy Quite magnanimous of you. *bows low*

@Emma-Flournoy ‘kay. 🙂

@Daeus I’ll also review it when it comes out.

@xonos-darkgrate I really, really like the excerpt you posted. The voice is very strong. The one criticism I have is that the summary of his early life never really clearly transitioned into the present. He was looking back, and I never quite caught where he stopped and began living the current story.
And I’m already curious about Brandon. 😉

@emma-flournoy Kate will get an email when the book is launched. You can upload it then.

@kballen Because you wouldn’t dare not like chocolate. 😉

Myers Briggs is an excellent theory on personality types that divides people into 16 different archetypes and defines how their brain works and how they generally act. You can take a free test to determine your type here: https://www.16personalities.com

Hi @kballen! You’ve found the Kingdom of Pen. We’ll have to give you a cloak and a bar of chocolate.

Btw, do you happen to know your Myers Briggs type?

@xonos-darkgrate awesome! INTJs and INTPs both are so cool. 😀 I’m an INFP myself.

@emma-flournoy It hasn’t changed very much. Mostly it’s just been clearing up confusing parts and improving the prose.

@emma-flournoy If you want to leave a review based on the version you got, that is fine. However, if you feel that you should read the most recent version first, then you can go ahead and sign up using the first link.
