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!”

@rae @highscribeofatherium @acanello
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]

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.

Oooh, the crystal sword idea’s kinda cool.

You know, I should really draw him and a few other characters in a scene or something….that might be fun.

@jonas @highscribeofaetherium ok yeah that’s too funny. oh, and it’s cool how you guys are siblings!
Since he has quite a few guns on him, he’d probably at least teach them how to use them in the event he gets hurt and one of them picks up his weapons.
And he probably would know how to use spears, swords, etc, if only because he’s tried to be…[Read more]

Keilah H. replied to the topic Character Party! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
@jonas Yes, he has human-like weapons, and advanced ones at that. Pistols, shotguns, grenades, the like. He can also freeze his enemies with icebreath or whip them with the six sharp spikes on the end of his tail. Or punch them.

Keilah H. replied to the topic Character Party! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 10 months ago
@rae thanks! I’ve modified him a lot from where he came from. He started as an insane guy who made an enchanted statue of himself to murder anyone who went near his treasures, and centuries later my usual MCs, his descendants, stumbled across his cave quite by accident and nearly got killed. Now, the same story’s been kept, but he now created the…[Read more]

@eveyone who’s interested
Here’s a poem I had the Bing AI write for me about Snake’s battle. I’m planning to use it in my actual fanfics for a time when he’s long dead and legends have immortalized him, since he comes from a prequel to the actual series.
In the frozen mountains of Krownest There was a war that shook the stars Two mighty kings…

@highscribeofaetherium i know right, he’s still a bit cocky even after the events of his story have taught him a few lessons

@rae Thanks! I haven’t gotten into his story a lot, but when we first meet him, he’s a bit self-absorbed and cares more about warring with his brothers and using his excellent sneaking skills to work as a mercenary and steal a few treasures for himself than ruling the Icewraiths. The tribe comes to him as sort of a last resort when they’re…[Read more]
