@devastate-lasting Hey girl!! How’s life? How is your writing going? Did you see Kathleen’s video? it’s so good, you should check it out. *warning: very random question ahead* Do you like lo-fi? I love it but my sister hates it. (I know, I wonder if I have ADD sometimes, lol) Anyways, hope you’re doing well, just wanted to check in. 😉

@nova21 Idk man I never have my characters confess love to each other…it depends on how much chemistry you’re building, I think. In this last book of the current trilogy I’ve been pantsing I think that I’ve created enough chemistry for them to kiss…? Like once…? At the end…? But I really pantsed this one I wasn’t planning on shipping them…[Read more]

Ok, so @abigail-m mentioned earlier that the love interest doesn’t confess anything in the first book/s. What do y’all think about someone confessing love in the first one? When I read, i…[Read more]

Wow, I love your WIP idea—so interesting!!! I think this setup will work out for me. I’ll probably be able to get in feedback over the weekends as I have school.
A little about me: I’m a constant writer of fantasy and I’ve been writing (and learning about writing) forever. I have experience with beta-reading. Like I said…[Read more]

@nova21 Wow!! Love it!!! Also, I wouldn’t worry about making ur books too long. And some make short books! (But I’d totally be willing to read a long book)

ella replied to the topic Writing A Series in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 7 months ago
Let’s see… pacing is actually something I struggle with. Cause I have all these amazing plans but the book will be either too long or too many that aren’t long enough, both of which would mess up the pacing. Here’s the basic outline of my trilogy:
Book #1–As Dark as Mist and Shadow (title change 😉)
Main themes: loya…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 DEFINITELY read the Artemis Fowl series!!! The books are so good! If you’re going to watch the movie, though, I’d recommend reading the first 3 books first. (The movie’s not as good but the actor who plays Artemis is really cute. <3 XD)

GodlyFantasy12 replied to the topic Writing A Series in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 7 months ago
Y’all mind if I post my ideas/plots for the series and get y’all’s feedback? (Plus I need some ideas for book 4, but I’m not too worried about it because I’ve got time)

@gracie-j So I’m not a huge history buff so not entirely sure when the regency era takes place lol! But maybe u could still have her be Chinese, but she’s living wherever ur stories take place. And maybe because of that that causes conflict (because I know back in old times certain people were treated differently due to their ethnicity)

Aww thanks for checking in! I appreciate it! Ahh I started the last book in this one trilogy a few days ago but I can’t seem to write it so I’m taking a week’s break again…yesterday I started a new project because the day before I was in the car with three elements swimming around in my head (always wanted to write a quest with a granny…at…[Read more]
I totally feel you!! I have to take breaks all the time. Girl, I can’t believe how many things you write!! That’s talent right there. 😉 A quest with a granny?!?! I’ve always wanted to write that too, lol!! 😂 …but maybe not with my granny, haha 🙃 I’m probably free to be an alpha/beta reader whenever you’re ready for one, if you want!! Oh…[Read more]
Oo, I don’t know any specific artists, I usually listen to mixes, but Gloomcatcher (which I have just started listening to on repeat) has some really nice chill stuff! It’s by the same people from my favorite band, haha…I miss them …I do morning devos, but I feel like I’m always rushing through or being distracted, yeah…I actually started…[Read more]
cool, I’ll have to check Gloomcatcher out!! Ooo, bullet journaling is SO fun!!! I have one, but i’m not super consistent in doing it, haha. Ok, so I’m not allowed to have social media, but maybe we can chat over hangouts or email or just on here. i guess i’ll have to check w my parents before doing anything tho… 🙃 ttyl ✌
Haha, I’m fine with being on here, as long as you’re fine with everything being public. Yeah, I’ll catch you around the forum sometime!
