Does that mean Daniel is going to sing this when he goes caroling? 😜

Hey!
So I haven’t read the thing, because I’m a bit of a ‘link-a-phobe’ (not you, just the internet), but my main thoughts are dark themes and darkness in literature in general is that if you’re not comfortable showing it to someone close to you, like your mom or dad or brother or sister or best friend, then it may have gone to…[Read more] -

Hi!
Honestly, I don’t think having two villains is a problem. Lots of books, TV shows, and movies get away with it. Often, they come at it through an insubordinate/superior light, where one person is just doing what their told based on what their superior instructs, but I’m sure there are other ways you could go about such a thing.

Thanks for the input guys! 😀
@kate-flournoy @daeus I tagged Kate because I knew she wrote fantasy…I just didn’t stop to consider how long the fantasy was. 😉 My mistake. Haha.

Heya Kapeefers. This week seems to be the Snapper Invents Topics week.
Another question:
Can you have two villains? It kinda makes the plotline a little weird I know, but can you have, say, for the first half of a book there be one villain and the other half another villain? Or does that really just mess things up?

So….I’ve heard a lot about fantasy novels being long, but Iv’e never written anything longer than 85,000 thousand words. Anything that was going to be longer than that I never finished. So I’ve been wondering…how long is the max for fantasy novels?

Hello,
A couple thoughts…
–I believe someone above mentioned that posting this in such a huge block of text makes it very difficult to read and comprehend. Maybe using something like Google Docs would be more beneficial to you in the future…
–I found myself skimming over the chapters as time went on. This may have to do with how long it…[Read more]

@dekreel Yes! It was perfect! 😀
Anyway, I wouldn’t say mine is procrastination with writing, but that I’m perfect. Yes. I have no weaknesses whatsoever. 😉 Okay, actually, it’s probably uh….ummm…Yeah, you know what, I don’t have any weaknesses.
Dekreel, do you have any suggestions? Something that would be helpful in the story? -
Snapper replied to the topic A Keeper Adventure in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago
@dekreel
Procrastination eh?

😉Anyway — the idea of having each writer with their own villain is cool but I also think that you’re right about the army. Not to mention it might take a lot of extensive work to think up each and every villain. Plus, I’d like to stick together. 😉 And that way, if you have the shapeshifter villain, it can…[Read more]

@xonos-darkgrate I’m going to stick with my opinions from the previous discussion that @daeus mentioned. I don’t think that you should have them.
1. Not only do they infiltrate other people, but it’ll also get stuck in your head. I find that the more I hear them, the more I think them. And even if they aren’t “that bad” they still make me…[Read more]

Hi, @rolena-hatfield! I rewrote a Christmas song, kapeefer style. I was going to post it on the forum and I was wondering if it would be okay if I tagged more than ten people for it? I wouldn’t use that really long list that has most of the forum members; it’d only be twenty or thirty people at most (only those who I thought would be interested). 🙂

Hey @mariposa! How fun! Can’t wait to read it 🙂 Yes that’s fine by me. Just make sure to mention you received official permission in your post :p
@rolena-hatfield Great! Thanks! 🙂 I’ll probably post in a week or so (once I finish fine-tuning it).
I’m including all the staff in the song, and I was wondering if you guys had any funny nicknames or anything I could include? 😉
@mariposa
Hmm… funny nicknames… I don’t think everyone has one 🙂 but we call Josiah the king and Michael the evil overlord. :p
Once we dubbed each other with super powers that kinda entailed our staff duties, but I our staff has changed since then, so I don’t think many have those any more 🙁
Sorry I can’t be of much more help. Looking…[Read more]
