@that_writer_girl_99 More for metric pattern, but either one.

@introvert_girl Sam really said it already, but you can also add a backstory to show why the character acts the way they do. The overall tone of the story will help too. I think though that the most important thing is proactivity, like Sam said.

@pickupyourpenandwrite

I write for two reasons.  1) Because I believe the Lord can work through words and that the words we speak and write have power.  2) I write because I have to.  What else would I do with all these insane, lovely ideas swirling around in this head of mine?  Not that ideas are a burden buuut…*glares at all my WIP…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper First of all, nice example. 🙂

I don’t think that it’s too dismal by itself. Even a lot of that can be good. It creates tension, you know.

It just takes a little bit of hope to keep the reader on the right track. Simple things too. Depression works because it pretends to be immense. Little, pleasurable, “childish” (quote on…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I agree that there definitely should be some sort of international Kingdom Pen day. I don’t know how exactly one would go about celebrating it but holidays are great.

@that_writer_girl_99 congratulations on your almost anniversary!!! Kingdom Pen is a wonderful place for learning and sharing, I wish I remembered it more often when I’m…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99  *tackle hugs you*  Love you to bits, my dear.

@dragon-snapper We’ll I think you’re the first to ever reveal their name after hiding it for a long time. It’s kinda funny too because Danielle has a really soft feel to it which…doesn’t exactly make me think of a dragon. lol. Don’t burn me with a ball of flame, please! I like the name. It starts with a Da, after all. What more could you ask for?

@that_writer_girl_99 Seems hard to believe it’s only been a year. Feels like you’ve been a part of this for much longer than that. 🙂

@dragon-snapper *drops jaw* Did you just reveal your…actual name?

@That_writer_girl_99 I’m feeling slightly sentimental like you’re leaving, but you’re celebrating the fact that you’re not leaving. I find that utterly fascinating. Write that down somewhere. Happiness can be sad.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 wow… has it really almost been a year? 😛 Time flies.

Hey, I happily take the credit for all those terrible (awesome) things if it means I helped you grow even the tiniest bit. Thank you. I’m glad. Keep going. 😉

Step #3: My personal approach has been to be posting writing or reading related statuses 4-5 days a week, and then as…[Read more]

@ariella-newheart Accurate.

@dekreel Ok; not going to lie, that last pic of me kind of creeps me out…

@dekreel  *wild applause*

@dragon-snapper If the problem is just that your story seems too dismal, make sure there’s always an element of hope mixed in with the chaos and strive to focus on your characters’ yearnings/ambitions that drive them forward. If you’ve got that all down, I bout your story could be too dismal. Problems tend to intensify stories. It’s only stories…[Read more]
