<3 yw!
I would try doing a black outline on another layer, then selecting the little checkerboard box (idk what it looks like in your program, it’s usually a checkerboard. It’s the one that makes it so you can only color on what’s already there) If you have that selected, you can use a brush too change the color of the outline,…[Read more]

@EVERYONE (I’d tag everyone I’ve interacted with on KP, but that’s a lot of people. XD)
Hey everyone!
So Jerry Jenkins (an incredible author if you didn’t know 😉 ) has an article with tons of different writing contests in 2024. I’m definitely planning to thoroughly look through all of them at some point, because I want to start submittin…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 @grcr @rae @mineralizedwritings
Thanks you so much guys!! All your advice has helped so much! I feel much more confident about editing this chapter now. ❤️
(And Rae, I would never get rid of the donut scene EVER. I love it too. 🥰😁)

Hmm… the overcoming problems too easily really could be a problem. Something that I think would help is making the problems in general take up more space. A characters struggle should snowball as a result of their own bad choices, which reflect their major flaw they hope to overcome. The general problem should not come up quickly…[Read more]

Ok, yeah that makes sense.

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Cosmere/Brandon Sanderson in the forum Book Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
So Something that I have wondered about the Cosmere ever since I’ve begun learning about it is what is the real nature of the Shards as far as are they needed in the universe for the relevant ideal to be present. Take Honor for example. Honor’s ideal obviously influences Roshar significantly, being a fundamental part of religion, culture, magic,…[Read more]

Alright, I think that’s fine. I think that the prospective split up into multiple books is ultimately the better call.

It is hard to say much without knowing much of your book, but I do agree with what Sara said as far as openings…
Ok! If you do wanna read the chapter, I posted it like two posts above this one.
I guess it depends on the reader, but personally, I like books that paint some of the picture in the first (and even second) chapter… even if it seem…

Ugh, sorry you’re going through that! That’s hard!
Yeah, thanks. XD My NaNo WIP feels so much easier because it’s so new, lol.
Could you maybe post some segments of it so I can see more of what you mean?
I posted the first chapter in the post above this one.
All I can say is that maybe you’re focusing a little too much on all…

Esther replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
What’s the first paragraph of your book?
So, the first paragraph doesn’t have much info in it since it’s only a few lines, but I’ll share the original first chapter so you can see what I’m talking about. (Hopefully. XD) In a day or two, I’m hoping to have an alternate first chapter written, so I may share that just to see if y’all think…[Read more]

Esther replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
Oof, those are hard questions. For the first one, I get what you mean. I think for the first chapter, an introduction is fine. Personally, I would try to focus on the relationship between Ami and Ev, and his family conflict, because I think that will hook the reader.
Yes, definitely. XDXD
Ok, yeah. I think I already have a few ideas…[Read more]

Allison replied to the topic Character Party! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
I think adding villains would be cool (if you have already made the decision, that fine) I wont be adding another person, I wont be RPing to much either (I know I dont now 🙂 but I dont think I’ll be active on KP to much, I’m getting pretty busy) Thanks for asking!

I don’t want to make a whole other topic for this, so I’m posting my question(s) here. XD
So, I’m having some trouble editing my WIP. (This is not my NaNo WIP. I was ahead on NaNo, so I decided to do some editing today). Originally, the first chapter wasn’t the most exciting. It was more a slice-of-life kind of thing that introduces who one of…[Read more]

I love your coloring style! It’s kinda… ethereal?
I think the lineart is fine for your style, but if you wanted to change it I would recommend using a pen and trying to make the whole thing one continues line, instead of having the sketchy kinda “feathery” lines. There’s nothing wrong with the way you’re doing it though!
I would…[Read more]
