Faith Q.

OOPS I meant @joy-caroline earlier! Both of your pics are light pink so I got confused on who it was XD!

@godlyfantasy12

Oooh, I LOVE THIS!!!! I COMPLETELY understand about listening to all the writing tips and stuff. I was recently getting kind of down ’cause my stories just didn’t always sound like my own writing voice ’cause I was letting all the advice become the sole way to write and it just wasn’t fun anymore. So when I started working on my…[Read more]

@issawriter7 Yesss I feel you! Procrastination is a HUGE struggle! I still battle with it VERY often!!

One thing that has helped me recently is having a small goal, that builds toward a bigger goal. So say 500 words a day, but it slowly adds up.

That is another reason that app has helped me out. When u have a small daily goal, it’s easier to n…[Read more]

@larchness Ah thank you! It’s taking a really long time but I’ll be glad to finish it one day!

Oh…well…if we’re all pouring out some emotions here…

Sometimes I grow really sad when I think about my future, and how I’m not going to become a full-time author. It doesn’t support, yeah, yeah…

Because recently I’ve discovered how much I love writing. And when you apply for colleges they tell you to do what you love, but honestly, for…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Ahh yeah brainstorming is super fun! Good luck!

@joy-caroline Ah okay! Maybe you can make like the mom have a scene where she’s thinking about her kids or something and sees the brother and thinks that he’d be the same age as her own son…or something…maybe he looks like her husband…something like that…

@larchness My fantasy saga consists of thirteen series that are interconnected, so I think it fits pretty nicely XD

@writerlexi1216 Lennox would rather walk on his hands.

@nova21 Laurel would choose city.

Would your character rather be a solo artist or in a band?

@joy-caroline

Oooh, LOVE THIS IDEA!! I’ve actually done something quite similar once in a story. (Well, I had planned it. Sadly, that story never made it past the first book so I didn’t get to write it. *pouting* But I had a few ideas that might help!) If you wanna hint it, you could try dropping clues like pointing out if they had some physical…[Read more]

@joy-caroline Did you say never find out? Oof…uh…definitely physical features should be key. And maybe mannerisms. Other than that I’m not sure…are their parents still alive?

@rochellaine

Since I’m pretty sure you’re not on Instagram, I just had to share this with you. It ad me cracking up in my morning tea break at work.

@writerlexi1216, @devastate-lasting

Seia would rather jump around everywhere.

Would your character rather live off-the-grid or in the middle of the city?

@kathleenramm

I love that!!  Thanks so much!!  I especially like #9.  I can put scenes in every category that you and @erinrramm mentioned, so we’ll just see if I can put it into word form!!! 😃

@godlyfantasy12

I feel you–I’m a huge perfectionist!!!

Great idea!

@nova21 Remember, books u read have been edited and rewritten multiple times! Trust me, I am a perfectionist on certain things (and I have OCD) but u gotta step back and maybe move onto another scene. I still struggle with this,  but recently I’ve been doing really well and feeling good about my writing. It is definitely NOT perfect so its easy…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Thanks!!  That looks awesome, thanks!!!

Ikr?  A great example of a really good first chapter is from the Hunger Games.  I don’t know how she does it!!! 😃
