@nanisnook Welcome back! Yeah KP can make me feel guilty too…but I recently started working on a short story so I feel a bit better about it now haha
Honestly, I might just go back (if you’re working in a Word/Google doc) and put some comments in the places where I want to add those ideas. But if they are huge things that affect everything in…[Read more]

@nanisnook Heyyy welcome back!
andyeahItotallygetyou. KP is good about thatI think you should go back and add the ideas in. You may forget later on which will result in a “lopsided” draft, so it’s usually best for me if I go back XD *cough* but also I’m terrible at going back and adding in so don’t mind me *cough*
As a reader, I can usually…[Read more]

I, personally, would go back and add those things. You don’t want to forget about it and not add it in! So ngl I’d prob just do that.
Also, it is 100% okay for chapters to be different lengths. My chapters range from 6 or 7 pages to more than like twelve sometimes. It’s totally fine! 🙂 Every author writes differently!

@sparrowhawke Haha yeah I just really like history, I don’t actually know how I got interested in Japanese history–it’s just kinda been something I’ve always been enthusiastic about learning XD
Electric bass was super fun, I could mostly play rhythms and I was in a very small band for awhile, but I’ve never played electric bass for a crowd…[Read more]

Heyy, thanks! Haha. Oh, actually, it’s short for Kadotake, which was one of my former aliases! But my close friends on here nicknamed me Kads. XD It fits me better, imo!

@sparrowhawke Yee a lot of classics use first person peripheral, actually! For another work I was debating between first and third and finally settled on first person peripheral. Pretty happy I did.

@sparrowhawke Hello! My name is Jodi. I write fantasy, historical fiction, and the occasional dystopian piece. I also like ancient stuff–I minored in history (mostly medieval England, American history, and the entire history of Japan haha) when I was in college.
I like music too. I play piano, sing, and used to play electric bass! My favorite…[Read more]

Jodi Maile replied to the topic Tense Choices in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years ago
@sparrowhawke Hellooo! So, I think you should choose your tense based on how close/far you want the reader to feel to the main character, the MC’s feelings, and how immediate you want the events of the story to feel.
First person present makes the reader feel like they are right there in the story, with things happening to them just the same way…[Read more]

@sparrowhawke Greetings! I remember Blimey Cow vaguely from years past, but since a while ago I have not watched them. Twenty One Pilots I do love, as well as The Emporer’s New Groove.
Your name sounds familiar; are you on Story Embers as well?

Lin replied to the topic Tense Choices in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years ago
@sparrowhawke I am a big believer and an astute follower of third person past. First person only occasionally, and always in past tense. Sometimes second. Been trying out peripheral first lately. But yeah, no, I don’t like first person present.

Kads replied to the topic Tense Choices in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years ago
@sparrowhawke For all of my contemporary stuff, I use first person present. It does require a bit of practice to get the hang of at first, but once you know your way around the tense, it can work really well. So I’d advise picking that one, but that’s just me. 😛
