Faith Q.

I’m a plantser—right in between potter and pantser.  I guess I lean a little more toward plotter, though.

i plan the characters, basic plot and several scenes, then I write. 😊

@kathleenramm I’ve got such a rigid writing schedule for myself that I don’t actually have the time or brain cells to sit down and map out every single specific thing. So I don’t really call myself a plotter.

I have a very specific ritual when starting a new work: I open the notebook, leave the first sheet blank, and then on the second page I…[Read more]

By the way, all my SFI fans, tomorrow is SFI’s third birthday and I’ve sort of made it a tradition to do an interesting post with some added trivia or something every year. Do you guys have any suggestions for something interesting to post?

@alia I’d heard of a Pride and Prejudice musical, but maybe not the same one, because this was an older one. Is it good though?

@jenwriter17 Oooh, that’s exciting news! Hope it goes well 🙂

I haven’t done much writing lately because I’ve been focusing on my KP articles. Hopefully I’ll have some time for it soon though.

@jenwriter17

Thank you 😀

Anyway, how have you been? What are you working on?

@jenwriter17

Just lots of really horrible stuff to my best friend in particular, which has really been weighing on me, plus just the general stress of Covid, it coming into summer here which has a lot of anxiety for me, and trying to find a job.

@kathleenramm I know, right? Big Hero 6 is one of my favorite movies.

And yeah, Mustang definitely should have given her all those flowers. XD I wonder what he did with them afterwards…?

@jenwriter17 I’ve definitely been better. So much has been happening and its just overwhelming. 🙁

@jenwriter17 Hey! I’m here 🙂

@kathleenramm Um. *instantly forgets every single book I’ve ever read about*. Sidekicks generally exist in adventure stories or superhero stories told from one person’s POV…or so I’ve noticed. As I don’t read those genres much…I suppose sidekick is also that third wheel character besides the MC and the girl.

But after Googling “sidekick” I…[Read more]

@leon-fleming Please define diverse and interesting.

I would like to write somewhere deep and dark. Like a deep and dark cave. Why? ‘Cause I feel ALIVE down here.

@kathleenramm

Percy Jackson’s got nothin’ on Shrek.

@gracie-j

Butterscotch blondies? Okay, I’ll take one of those. *joins the outstretched hands* Do you happen to have any chocolate peanut butter no-bake cookies? I really could go for one of those right now. Not being ungrateful or anything. Just sayin’. No, don’t look so offended! I love your butterscotch blondies. They’re great. I just… like…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin A worthy protagonist indeed.

@kathleenramm Generally my favorite characters are always extremely minor ones that appear for two seconds, so… I guess I like Kousei Arima from Your lie in April. He’s a pianist, like me, and has a lot of quirks that I like. And he isn’t too much of anything, like being too dramatic,…[Read more]
