@princessfoo “How to Survive Sudden Transformation into Another Universe and Come Back in Mostly One Piece.”
^^This is an awesome title. -

@revayah1 Yep! Quick note on tagging: some people like me are weird and have a tagging name that’s different from their display name (mine is @aratrea). To find someone’s tag, just click their name to see what it is on their profile, or if you hover over their name and look at the web address it links to, the last part of that web address should…[Read more]

@perfectfifths Got it. A slow process like that can definitely be very effective and I’d recommend that as a natural way to do it. You may find, though, that it still helps to have a specific moment after the slow trust process where Amrei is forced to make a decision and chooses to trust Nylian at a pivotal moment to really hammer Amrei’s change home.

Welcome to the site @Revayah1! Glad you found us. 🙂 Yeah, there’s a pretty large INFJ percentage both on the forum and on the staff (though I think ENFJ is the most popular staff type at the moment…) Needless to say you’re in good company. 😉
Also tagging @christi-eaton for the Mark of the Lion reference.

@Dragon-Snapper *looks at crazy people and pretends she never does this herself, ever* Welp, I’m late. But the one thing I have to add is pretty boring anyway.
Practice.
Don’t just practice, observe. Begin picking style apart and figuring out what makes it tick. Read books whose style you like, then dissect it and find out why. Become a style…[Read more] -

@princessfoo Awesomesauce! I’ll have to add those to my list of to-reads 🙂

@belegteleri (I moved the conversation here 🙂 ) Europe! How exciting! Where all did you go while there?

@princessfoo Hey there! Can I just say how glad I am that you’ve been apart of the KP community. 🙂 (even if you are just now introducing yourself :p, better late than never, right?)
What would be the top two fantasy books you’d recommend reading? (I’m not much of a fantasy reader, but I like to read out of my favorite genres so I’d love some…[Read more] -

@belegteleri I wish I could be of service! But like Josiah said, that’s one thing we can’t change. (I really like your profile pic by the way, is that your very own horse?)

@belegteleri Unfortunately even the highest admin levels are not enough to overcome the limits our forum software places on us on that front. 🙁

@GracieGirl *peers in* *looks around* What everyone else is saying, I think. One of the large things it to make it easily readable, whatever the length. So lots of paragraph breaks and section breaks with headings and such.

I can’t change it, but it’s possible that @aratrea or @rolena-hatfield could.

Fyi, K.M.Wieland’s posts are also often above 2,000.
I think a large deciding factor is your subject matter.

@shannon Truth is never boring, but variety is the spice of life.

The articles on KP are about that length just for comparison.

@revayah1 Welcome!
*gasp* You’re writing a vengeance book? Those are the best ever.

Daeus replied to the topic The Itsy Bitsy Spider is Shelob in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years ago
@dragon-snapper I can see that a bit, but it didn’t really pop out at me. I think overall you have a pretty consistent writing style. I believe that if you work on just generally improving your style and edit your book a few times, the problem will disappear.

Daeus replied to the topic Dilemmas in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years ago
@that_writer_girl_99 @shannon Actually, I just came up with a story idea I’m pretty excited about. It just remains to be seen whether all the plot threads will tie together, but I’m pretty sure they will.
If you come up with any great dilemma ideas though, make sure to post them here. They could be great story inspiration for anyone else…[Read more]

London, Paris, and Bayeux, a city in Normandy, close to all the D-Day beaches 🙂
It was a lot of fun
Aaaannnnnnd I left out a period in that last sentence. 10/10.
@belegteleri Whoa! Slightly jealous! 🙂 Did you see any cool castles?! That’s what I’d love to see if I ever get over there someday. Oh, and I meant to ask if you’re working on writing a book right now?
@rolena-hatfield Aside from the Tower of London and Buckingham Palace, we didn’t see any other castles or anything that similar, since we were in the city. We didn’t have time to go outside the major cities 🙁
As for working on a book, I haven’t written much in the last few months, although I’m starting to get my ‘writerly itch’ back and I hope…[Read more]
