@daeus That makes sense. Thanks. 🙂 I figured it was something like that…

Can characters be antagonists on and off? Because I’ve a number of characters that are antagonists at some points and work with the MC at other points.

Silvara: An archeress. She’s been a legend for 500 years and thinks the whole name deal is a bit hilarious. Though when it comes to the respect people have for her just due to her name and not…[Read more]

@hope With martyrdom and apparent tragedy, the poetic justice is subtle. Good leads to blessings, but it doesn’t mean the protagonist can have everything. If a character with a good EIL dies, what’s generally happening is a sacrifice. In other words, even though he’s giving up his life, he’s gaining something that’s more important to him. If he…[Read more]

Hmm, just realized Zevlin might actually be an antagonist off and on… More on than off. 😉

Just two… Foil characters are so much fun. These are for Fidelyon, again. The rest of my work will probably be for that novel. My trilogy isn’t developed enough for this yet… Anyway:

1. Seamus: the page boy of the MC. His EiL is that names don’t mean much, if anything. He’s an orphan, and couldn’t care less. It is what he…[Read more]

I love the foil characters that stand opposed to the main character’s EiL in almost every way and yet have one aspect of truth that the MC is missing. My mind is going blank on such characters in fiction (I don’t suppose I can count my own characters. *grins sheepishly* They’re the ones I’ve been thinking about a lot recently.) though I know there…[Read more]

Alrighty, I got 740 written, so a great writing session.

@dragon-snapper Ah, yes, Ear o’ corn and leg o’ lamb are great! I love it when they talk to each other. I also really like Grumpy. “Got any waffles?” What are some of your favorite books?

@graciegirl I looked up HSA. It looks like a great program! I’ll tell my dad about it. I think one of my other friends uses it, though I’m not positive. Wow, 50 minutes three times a week? That’s a lot! *gives you a high-five.*

Yeah, Ahem is pretty funny. I like it when the eagle shouts at them. What are some of your favorite books?

@dragon-snapper What’s WIP? I could get up and cross the room and open the door and walk down the hall and open another door and poke my head in and ask @daeus, but I’m too sleepy to do that right now. 😀

Do you know how to make your whistle high-pitched? I love doing that. I had a tin whistle before I lost it, and I loved playing on it. You…[Read more]

@overcomer Oh boy. Let me think about it. …Yes. 🙂

Hi @northerner, I’ll write with you for an hour.

@Jane-Maree yup. Don’t I know it. 😛

@Daeus well, you didn’t read the first draft, thank goodness. SO MUCH SUPERFLUOUS MATERIAL.

@Daeus true… 🙂 *sigh* I’m working on it… I think I may actually be able to make my goal of two hundred pages cut and get it down to six hundred pages by the end of this draft. *cheers*

@kate-flournoy Well, my books are about a sixth of the size of yours.

@Daeus *staggers* W-w-wow… over halfway? Good for you. 😛 I got 502 words and am approaching the climax… finally. 😀

@kate-flournoy Actually, I finished the chapter, so I’m going to go ahead and stop, but I got 285 written. I’m now over halfway through with my next book. 🙂
