Daeus replied to the topic I'm concerned my story is a bad allegory in the forum Fantasy 8 years, 9 months ago
@allison-grace It’s possible you might want to change some things. I can’t say for sure.
I’ll just give some general thoughts on allegory. The main point of allegory is to get us to view something we already know about with a fresh mind. Because of this, your allegory shouldn’t be immediately obvious or predictable. This doesn’t mean that we…[Read more]

@Allison-Grace hey! Welcome to KP. 🙂
While I agree with every point made in that video, I don’t believe that just because a story has a few (or even all, necessarily) of those ‘cliche’ elements that it’s a bad allegory.
What do I mean by that?
Well, the problem with cliches is that so often they’re written just ‘because that’s the way things are…[Read more] -

Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet, @joy!
You’re the second person to join the forum because they found us through Pinterest. I guess that social media stuff works. 😛
Do you have a book you’re working on at the moment?

@koryn-koch Welcome to your bestistest place on the internet. Is your name pronounced Core-in? It sounds nice and crunchy. 😀
If you do get a chance, A Tale of Two Cities is my second favorite book. The Count of Monte Cristo is the first.

Daeus replied to the topic My Time Travel Book in the forum Novel Critique Requests 8 years, 9 months ago
@winter-rose That would be fine. I would, however, ask that if you do that, please let me know right away if you think there’s anything major that needs fixed (i.e. a character isn’t coming across right, a scene should be structured differently, I have a consistently recurring stylistic problem etc). I’d like to be able to get to major problems right away.

@EpicAddie2 Thanks! God just all of a sudden blessed me with a really nice camera recently (I had a Nikon D3100 before that was ok but not good.) I’ve used it a lot and LOVE it, and Daeus made a video with it. He’s almost as happy about me getting it as I was myself about getting it! I think I only have a couple pictures on my site from the new…[Read more]
