Faith Q.

@gracie-j

I’m actually going back over the NaNoWriMo Prep 101 to use the worksheets for making characters and plotting.  Question:  do you have a favorite plotting structure?  I’m a plantser (right in between plotter and pantser), so I’m still trying to find my happy-medium when it comes to plotting.

Writing’s going pretty well–I haven’t st…[Read more]

@gracie-j

I am!!!! 😄

@godlyfantasy12

Love it! 😍

Your synopsis is really good!!!  Arabella’s backstory is really interesting… 😀

Hope your writing goes well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😉

@godlyfantasy12 I’ve gotten into writing crime recently, so they aren’t really actual mysteries, per se, as I reveal who the culprit is as one of the main characters. However, I think that this bit sounds really interesting! I think you should develop it!

Also, I’ve heard that for mysteries it’s good to have the solution first and then sprinkle…[Read more]

So I wanted to see what y’all think of this synopsis! It’s around 229 words, and I think it’s pretty good but not perfect by any means but I wanted to share it!

(BTW I don’t have a world name yet so that’s why the parentheses are there lol.)

Life in (World Name’s) Garden has always been wonderful, but the rest of the world can’t say the…[Read more]

I don’t have many opinions on the Civil War in fiction. I literally don’t think I have ever read a book set in the Civil War? Ever?? Nope, I’m pretty sure I haven’t. However! I do have opinions on the Revolutionary War. My family is English (my grandparents came out to Aus in the late 60s, and my cousins and other family members still…[Read more]

He is a boy and Arabella’s best friend (and he has a crush on her but she doesn’t realize it.)  And will do!

I had the idea today for a scene I’m pretty excited about. I just gotta get thru the first act 😂😂 hopefully it’ll get a bit easier but it may get harder

@godlyfantasy12

I’ve tried to write mysteries, but alas, they are too predictable and trashy. 😆  However, I love to read them!  I like your idea–it sounds great to me!! I also think that world of Cirque would also be really interesting to develop.  (Btw, is November a girl or boy?  Sometimes it’s hard to tell with names 😉)  I’m intri…[Read more]

Hey, so has anyone ever written a mystery? Or close to one? Or a murder lol. The first book of my series is a bit of a fantasy murder mystery, but I think it’d be better if it’s a closed room murder. So that means it seems no one else was with the victim except the suspect (who is actually inn…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

🥰 Thanks so much!!

@nova21 Don’t really have critiques but this is GORGEOUS!!! I love it!!

@gracie-j Lol! My goal is to read all the Chronicles of Narnka, The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit and the Simarillion by the end of the this next year!

I figure if I take it chapter by chapter I can achieve that.

@godlyfantasy12 Thanks for sharing this! I have no clue what denomination I am, but I 100% agree with this. Thanks for being so outspoken!

@kathleenramm Great idea! Though be warned; my list will probably mostly consist of manga, with a classic book once in a while. Hopefully this might spark up my love for reading again, haha…

@gracie-j Ah, yes. I feel you. I may live up North, but being a second-gen immigrant, I’ve never really felt that strongly about the civil war. However, I…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Ooh I love this idea!! So I didn’t read anything today yet, but I read the first chapter of the Hobbit Christmas Day! I’ve seen the movies, so it’s nice to already have the image in my head lol.

I really love the misty mountains song and ended up singing most of it to myself instead of quietly reading it 😂😂

I also like how the i…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

I got you, thanks so much!! 😉

@nova21 I really out of touch with poetry right now, so I can’t really say much, but I liked it a lot!

@gracie-j

Thank you so much!  Typos… 😒  And punctuation has never been my friend.  Thank you for the advice!
