Okay, I’m going to try this…
It’s the wee hours of morning for Americans, but is anyone on right now? I’m going to edit – some articles for school, and also a short story I want to try to get on KP 🙂

ALSO that is happening 5 AM my time… haha. Doesn’t look like I’ll make it.

@clairec Thanks for letting me know!! The program looks pretty awesome. Money-wise, I’m not sure…

@inkling-for-christ Aw yes Faramir is awesome! 🙂 🙂
So far the only book crushes I remember are Brambleclaw from Warriors (only towards the end of the fourth series) and Jason from Percy Jackson – which is weird because both of them have POVs somewhere in the series. I don’t get that “oh they are so heroic” feeling when I read from their POVs,…[Read more]

Grace H. replied to the topic How many characters is too many? in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 9 months ago
@ariella-newheart This would depend on how similar the characters are to one another, and how often they show up. If you have up to 7-10 characters that stay with the reader the entire plot, it shouldn’t be too bad, especially if you give them each distinct names and defining characteristics. As for the rest of the recurring characters, if they…[Read more]

@skredder Yes, the confusion is cleared up now. Thanks 🙂
@warrenluther04 Yes!! The series is really awesome (it’s one of my favorites), and there are more people on this forum that like it than you’d think.

@rochellaine You remembered my tag!!! That’s a first xD
@clairec From the look of the website, I imagine you’ll probably want to address biblical topics in a fairly serious way. I guess my advice to you would be to make each post have a simple main point, and speak to your audience’s needs. Best of luck to you! 😉

Grace H. replied to the topic Short Story for my Novel in the forum Short Story Critiques 6 years, 9 months ago
@skredder I liked it! I think the dynamic between Casse and Aldred is really sweet. (I have to admit, at the beginning the name Cassandra threw me off, because in Ranger’s Apprentice the princess is named Cassandra, and she does sneak out at night, too.)
I share the problem mentioned earlier, though, in that it’s a bit confusing at the end. Maybe…[Read more]

Grace H. replied to the topic Weird Things People Tell Me 'Cause I'm a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 9 months ago
I looked up this Forum thread for something that happened to me today xD
So I was world-building on this whiteboard and I drew this blob as an outline for my country/city, and my brother, joking the blob was meant to be a head, gave it a face and a stick-figure body, and I decided to do further world-building in my notebook and my notebook only 😀

Grace H. replied to the topic Romance Novel Pet Peeves and Cliches in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 9 months ago
@valtmy The “obvious” thing might actually be a pet peeve of mine… but overall to eliminate it I suppose you’d make the two people who are destined for each other be indifferent to one another, but they never really consider each other in “that” way.
And for the sensitive/artsy guy with the strong female protagonist, I guess it might be a trope…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting The story I’ve been working on recently actually needs me to do world-building before I can get anything done (*grins sheepishly because I haven’t been doing anything as a result*) so thanks for sharing this! I will try it out and see how it goes.

@joisebeth Welcome to the bestistest place on the Internet! (If you haven’t already guessed, that’s the standard greeting here) 😀
“Music, theater, blogging, and reading” That list really resonated with me 🙂
Do you like Shakespeare? What instruments do you play?

Grace H. replied to the topic Romance Novel Pet Peeves and Cliches in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 9 months ago
@valtmy I don’t like it when once people fall in love, they HAVE to overcome everything to be together. Like, it’s not an option to choose not to be together for whatever reason. Also impulsive kisisng when they barely know each other yet, or when the strong girl protagonist realizes that she’s actually in love with the sensitive/artsy guy that’s…[Read more]

Grace H. replied to the topic Blogging… in the forum Publishing & Platform 6 years, 9 months ago
@catwing I think most bloggers post weekly or biweekly or twice a week… something like that, and their readers can expect them on a certain day of a week.
My biggest piece of advice is to write about things you’re passionate about so you can muster the strength to release something regularly.
My blog thing is in my signature if you want to…[Read more]

@clairec Wow — that sounds great. Thanks for letting me know 😉
Although if you mean writing “with” each other at the same time, it could be a problem for me because of time zones.
