It works either way. Some of them might actually make some good stories (albeit strange). They are all very comedic though.

Have you ever seen this? If not check it out.
It is a little application that can encourage you to stay on track with your writing through rewards or punishments. I only just found it and did a small test run, but it seemed to work really well. I wrote about 200 words in (maybe 8?, 10?) minutes. Now I think I really should…[Read more]

I’ll join in.
My character (I’m assuming we don’t have to use MCs) will be Rameaux. He is a lighthearted bandit with a serious core. He is very friendly and courteous and practical and loves nothing better than to play around with the people he is robbing. He does whatever he has to in the banditry business without flinching but he is never…[Read more]

Already I like him. 😉
I guess I should have described Arianwen. She’s probably about five feet ten inches— pretty tall for a woman, but she’s not big, just tall. Dark blue eyes, black hair, very white skin. She wears almost exclusively dark, vivid blue. And she has a pygmy dragon for a companion, but I don’t know if he’ll be popping up or not.…[Read more]

You and I must have been posting at the same time, @writefury. 😀 I understand it now, I think.
So let me be the first to introduce my character. Her name is Arianwen— Anwen for short, except only I and her husband are allowed to call her that. So she’s Arianwen to you.
She’s courteous and mature outwardly, with a quick smile and a gracious…[Read more] -

I’m not sure I’ve quite got the concept, but you can count me in for sure!:P This sounds really fun.

So would we all be using the same situation?

For How he looses the cloth:
How about Alex steals it from him in order to use it for some great plan of his to help Walter realize what he has truly become. I’m thinking something very Nathan and Davidy. I’m thinking Alex could frame some sort of scenario that Walter would watch happening which would cause him to become very concerned about the…[Read more]

I suppose so. I got distracted. I think half our group is too busy with NaNoWriMo to focus on the forum.
We only just got started with this subject though so it’s about time it got resurrected.
let’s start with this. What can you use to drive your bad hero in his badness? Let’s just brainstorm and come up with as many options as we can. We…[Read more]

I think these Were’ things open up an opportunity for a very unique and symbolic story.
Aside from giving them a new name, the only thing I think that could be a problem is people’s everyday association with the word wolf. It conjures some not so pretty stuff. I mean, let’s face it, wolves kill all sorts of things, big things, even humans…[Read more]

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Scene Critique in the forum Novel Critique Requests 10 years, 10 months ago
I think it’s just the fact that they are called werewolves that will put someone off. ‘Werewolf’ has a very distinct association in everyone’s mind, and that association is very heavily evil.
I would encourage you to keep looking for a different name. -

I think if werewolves were real, the Bible would have mentioned them
I don’t think so. The bible deals with witchcraft because it is the root evil. If it were to condemn all forms of witchcraft it would be unnecessarily long and disturbing.
For my part, I am happy to say that I have never had any interaction with werewolves, nor do I want to or…[Read more]

I just want to mention too, @Sarah-h, that werewolves are not mentioned anywhere in the Bible, even though the Bible does contain descriptions of witchcraft and things connected with it that we need to be aware of.
I think if werewolves were real, the Bible would have mentioned them, so I don’t think you need to be concerned on that score. -
Daeus replied to the topic Scene Critique in the forum Novel Critique Requests 10 years, 10 months ago
@sarah-h That is a good point about readers not being able to separate the real world from the fantasy world. If that happened, it could have some very bad effects. It does seem though that Little Brown Dog is doing a good job at forcing upon the reader the very sharp distinction between the real world and her world.
@howlingwolf along the lines…[Read more]
