ella started the topic Help! I don't know what to do next… in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 7 months ago
Hi guys! I need some brainstorming help for my Camp NaNo project…
Let me break it down:
Hope, MC, is living in the wild with no one except a stray dog as a friend. She lives in a cabin in a valley, surrounded by cities full of hostile people (who are diseased). The cabin is strange–there are weird sounds in the attic, strange knocks on th…[Read more]

Oh my goodness, Filip’s reaction to be called ‘adorable’ is seriously the CUTEST THING EVER!!! Aw, can I just give him a hug or something, because I love him so much!!! It’s so amusing to think about characters’ reactions to different things XD
Oooh, that’s so interesting! Sometimes I’ll be on the edge of my seat writing a scene and…[Read more]

Oh, I know you weren’t; no worries whatsoever girl:)
Actually, I have no idea how Filip would react to being called adorable.
I think since no one had ever called him that before, he’d just blink for a few seconds. Then he’d try to respond but wouldn’t be able to think of anything to say and would instead bow and make his exit to…[Read more] -

My first line today was:
“Wolf,” she said and shrugged, “I guess I’m not in anyone’s good graces at the present.”
And last:
He had just sanded out the old damages too.
*Whew* I’m pretty exhausted too XD

Wow girl, that INCREDIBLE!!:D I’m not sure how many I did today, but I’m at 4,790 words total so far:) Ooh! Those are amazing lines!!:D

Abigail.M. replied to the topic NaNoWriMo HQ in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 7 months ago
That’s true, most of my names for literally everything gets changed around a lot, (and I can spend literally weeks pouring over trying to find the perfect name for something:)
The internet is an incredibly helpful, difficult, and confounding tool when it comes to writing that’s for certain XD
Oh definitely, disabilities and…[Read more] -

First sentence:
Hours have gone by and I’m still in the darkness.
Last sentence:
The chill mountain air refreshes my lungs like a drink of cold water on a parched throat.
total of 2236 words today! I’m exhausted, lol!! 🤣
How’d y’all’s writing go today?

I’m with Lexi on that. Palladin sounds like such an AMAZING character!!!!!:D And I definitely love the concept of a Fairy Guardian:) That is just way too awesome!:D

Alexa Autorski replied to the topic Character Chat! in the forum Characters 3 years, 7 months ago
Whoa, girl!! That sounds so AMAZING!! I mean, I already know I love Palladin, but a fairy guardian? That’s, like, the coolest thing ever!! What’s her name? Do you mind me asking? Is she a main character? Aw, that’s so special that she’s like a mother figure *tries hard to keep from fangirling but failing* I don’t see many books a…[Read more]

Alexa Autorski replied to the topic NaNoWriMo HQ in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 7 months ago
*Phew!* Thank you! I can be forgetful, so I wanted to make that clear so I didn’t seem rude or anything. OF COURSE! I mean, I practically melt at anything adorable, so when I read that I just fangirled all over again and, even though Mejia didn’t enjoy it the greatest, I certainly enjoyed reading about it!:) Aww, Filip gets more…[Read more]

Thanks for the invite! I accepted it! 🙂 Also, that’s a great idea and I positively adore those lines! I’ll have to share some of mine next time!
Ah, thank you for forgiving my klutzy-ness XD And I can relate so hard with that, unfortunately, haha. Of course, I adore that name! Yes, I’m the same way–all of my character…[Read more]

Abigail.M. replied to the topic What's your process of creating a main character for your story? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 7 months ago
Ooh, great question! I love your process too:) It actually looks somewhat similar to mine.
Tbh, I haven’t created a MC in a long time since I’ve been so busy with my currant WIP XDUsually I start when I see a photo of quote that inspires the character.
Then I decide a couple basics facts about them, like what she/he likes, hat…[Read more] -

Wow!! Those are awesome Ella!!!:D
This is an amazing idea! Hmm, I just started writing today so I’ll share yesterday’s first and last:)As still a staple of dull white light gleaned off the mountainous snow that loomed and piled and flowed across every surface it could find a hold of.
(That was one of my better sentences so far this mon…[Read more]

No worries about it at all, I definitely know that you weren’t trying to be rude or anything like that; no harm done:) I’m just glad my post came through:)
THANK YOU!!!!!:D
Yeah, it was a adorable scene, (as long as your watching from a third person POV and don’t include the end that is).
Filip was definitely the happier one o…[Read more] -
Abigail.M. replied to the topic NaNoWriMo HQ in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 7 months ago
Oh no, girl, don’t worry about it in the least! I was just making sure you got it, because, well, my posts are sometimes just as cooperative as my characters XD But yeah, no worries:) That happens to me sometimes too:)
I’m so glad you liked the name Destal! Because, like character names, I get nutty about naming villages and pla…[Read more]

I also thought it’d be fun to share our first and last sentences we write each day. Here’s mine:
I hurry over the rocks so my shoes don’t get wet, but Magnus splashes through the stream, shaking the water from his long coat on the opposite bank.
And the last:
Heavy footsteps leave the room. “We stay here until we find…

Hey Lexi, just wanted to let you know that if you want, you can join me and Abigail on our Camp NaNo April group. I think I sent you an invite. If you don’t want to, that’s totally fine, np. Just wanted to let you know! 😀

And NOW I’ll respond to your latest post. By the way, please let me know if that ever happens again! I have a tendency to read posts and… not reply to them. Anyways, I definitely wasn’t trying to be rude! I’m just forgetful and scatterbrained

OH MY GOODNESS, I just realized I never responded to your post about Anton!! I’m SO SORRY, I completely forgot! I mean, I definitely read it once you posted it, but I guess it just slipped my mind to reply! *falls on knees and begs for forgiveness* Good grief, I can be so forgetful sometimes… I wasn’t trying to be rude or anything, I…[Read more]
