Yay, I think I like this prologue much better. It introduces the central conflict and immediately sillhows what the story will be a modern, futuristic retelling of Les Mis, which I think will be what a reader that picks up your book will be expecting.
A few points:
#1: Since the POV is meant to be omnescient, the shift in focus is…[Read more]

@seekjustice Which one?
Oh, and sorry I never came back to beta-reading SFI. I lost the notes page you emailed me and then life happened annnnd. . . yeah. So sorry. 😛 🙁

Hello. I’m working on my WIP. Got stuck for a while before I realised that it does not make sense for the scene I am writing to go the way I had planned so I am doing backtracking.

I think I’ll try to hack away this plot hole a bit. How are y’all doing? 🙂

Haha your book is not even published yet and you are already pandering to the fanbase? 😛
Yes, Kendall really, really needs to be developed more. If removing all romantic hints is needed for that, I’ll say go for it. You are already in a dilemma regarding the genre of SFI, right? 😛 (Whether or not it should be a dystopian or not).…[Read more]

Hi. Yes, I’m still around. Unfortunately, I’ve been sick 🙁 (But I promise I am still working on Part 3 of QOD, @seekjustice so do not worry!)

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #22 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 8 months ago
Sure, I’d love to take a look. 🙂
As for your character pairings… Apart from Chessy’s silly crush, I honestly don’t have much of an opinion on that matter actually since I don’t really think of SFI as a romance so I did not read it as such.
Usually for romances what I like to see is two people coming together, supporting each…[Read more]

Hi, it’s been SO long since I talked to you guys on this forum. 😀
Ooh the third draft of SFI? Yes, I do believe that the thing about the prologue was one point that I raised for my review.

You saw Phantom? As in, the movie or the actual stage version? I enjoy both, but the stage version is superior.
@seekjustice I saw the stage version. It was great!
My family has currently bamboozled themselves wondering whether you walk on the left side of the footpath or the right side.
Generally, we tend to walk on the right side since that’s…[Read more]

I see. I like giving my MCs very personal connections to the villains. Mostly because it helps in making conversations with the villains not-boring (How many interesting ways can, “I’m stopping you because you’re evil!” or, “I’m stopping you to save the world!” be said?) 😀
Yes, an ironic one would work. Same goes for a fitting one…[Read more]

Oh so Wattle Fire is going to have a human antagonist now?
Ah, creating villains can be so fun. 😛 Are you looking for a fitting Puritan name or an ironic one?

You watched Phantom? That’s cool 😀 What do you like best about it?
Hi, what’s up? 🙂
