Ok cool. I’ll think about putting in a villain.

Although I do have a few cool villains up my sleeve….

Esther replied to the topic Character Party! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
Oooh, I like the idea of adding a couple of villains… 😏
I could add in a charrie from Amir’s book named Dabir. He’s basically Amir’s mentor. And I love him. He’d probably see Zahlin and Nahim fighting all the time and be like, “Are you kidding me? Knock it off.” And then they’d probably get really annoyed at him. Especially afte…[Read more]

First off, y’all are all so amazing ❤️ Tysm for having my back and being so encouraging, you guys have no idea how much it means to me.

I’ll pray for you, I have been going through that recently also. Like Esther said, making yourself write would be good, I did that but I started at a scene I really wanted to write, I know that doesn’t always work for people, but that helped me 🙂 Also activities with your characters are fun, (Love letters to each other, your…[Read more]

And how’d your writing sprint go? (I would’ve joined you but I was busy eating dinner. XD)

Esther replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
I’ll be praying for you!! I totally understand not having motivation. 😅 Right now, I have a lot of momentum, but about the last two months, I didn’t get much writing done because I just kept procrastinating. 😬 I wish I could give you advice, but I don’t think I really have anything expect make yourself write. XD Because that’…[Read more]

Esther replied to the topic NaNoWriMo! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
Sooo… I wanna share the first two chapters of my NaNo WIP, because, in my opinion, they turned out pretty well for a first draft. 😂 So here ya go! (Don’t mind any grammatical errors. 😁)
Chapter 1
“Amir!”
“I’m coming, Maman!” Amir’s little feet padded into the room. He jumped onto his bed and ferreted under the covers. “Story time!”

Hedieh
Hedieh’s eyes lit up as she watched the two men begin to fight. Wow, this escalated quickly. Fighting didn’t bother her much, but with these two, it could be much worse than a good-hearted duel.
She glanced down at an old sword lying in the corner. Just in case, she reminded herself, trying to igno…[Read more]

@starshiness It’s been a while ago, but thank you for showing me this! I submitted one original poem to Unlocked. Because of how they need to do the copyrights, I don’t think I can post that poem here, but we’ll see how the Lord wants to use it! He has opened my heart to really wanting to love teenagers like Christ. I got to talk to two girls once…[Read more]

Esther replied to the topic Back Stories, the thing that shapes life in the forum Characters 2 years, 10 months ago
Ooooh, I’m going to have to read all these charrie backstories you posted and post some of my own later. Looks fun. 😏 And I have a character who has some dark backstory, just have fleshed out all the details yet.

Ok, so I think I’ve caught up with everything now. XD
(I’m most active during the afternoons, so I think I miss it when y’all are most active. (: )
Oh boy, Hedieh’s at the forge. 🫢 That could be dangerous.
And for swords/weapons and such, in Amir’s actually story, he…[Read more]

Current wip word count is just over 20k! I’m a lot more organized this time, and I’m confident it won’t just turn into another do over 🙂
-
Oh, good for you!!!!!! I had 23K on mine…but then I decided to rework the plot and change some things…sooo…now I only have 16K 🙁 but just give me a week and I should have it back to 20K, lol
-
Thanks!
Nice! Yeah… I get it. My first draft was like 48k I think but it just wasn’t going anywhere and I didn’t plan well so I ended up scraping the whole thing 🙁-
I know the feeling, I’ve done that so many times! And then one of my friends read my first draft and said it was like a published novel…and I was like….um….no….
-
XD sometimes a short body of work could seem published… while the bigger picture is a total mess 😳

Nice! Would this actually count as a full short story? I couldn’t detect any full plot, but maybe it’s there. One piece of advice my writing teacher gave us for our short story assignment was ‘make sure you write a short story and not just a scene.’ Putting aside whether it counts as a short story, it’s a really good snapshot/scene at least.
