@daeus This is amazing. Thank you for sharing. @filewriterbase13x I think you might like this. Pretty relevant, right?

@filewriterbase13x You can use me if you wish (I’ve been mentioned before as a droid), but by all means you don’t have to.

I’m sure your story will be great!

@sam-kowal I seem to remember Stan’s “heavy metal death screams” being mentioned before. 😉 😀

@celticcailin Hi! I love music, but I don’t write lyrics (I play cajon.)

I think @dekreel , @sam-kowal , and @alia write songs, though. (Tell me if I’m wrong, guys!)

Good luck on your music!

My rule of thumb is that main characters should be both bright and deep. “Bright” as in they have some qualities that you (and hopefully your readers) find interesting (note: this is not the same as likable or attractive). “Deep” means that these traits come from a source (the characters’ past or background) that should at least be…[Read more]

@seekjustice WOAH. I’m so scared. I’m so scared. My word, reading Manly with Chessy was so heartbreaking :'( And Zachary and Justice being cousins gives this a different dynamic. I’m so scared. AHHHHHHHH

@waterlily Nope. I don’t outline before I start. The most I ever do is write a couple of ideas for the next two or three scenes and have a general idea of how the story is probably going to end.

Sometimes it doesn’t turn out the best, but, hey, that’s what editing is for. 🙂

@kaya-young

Yep that was the plan. That’s why I introduced plot points such as the other members of the imperial family, the history of the empire, the assassin etc. because they will be relevant to the ‘adventure’ part of things.

But not everything was linking up and making sense. That’s why I have been stuck on this story for a long time and I…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Glad you liked it!

My original idea was a sort of Man vs God thing. It draws upon the belief that our lives are ruled by “Fate” that was prevalent in ancient China.

Basically the setting is a story world where “Fate” appears to cause lots of silly love stories to happen and the “Rules” are basically just all the…[Read more]

@mnvalentine

Hmm… yes maybe that will work. I was planning on having a more sweeping epic but maybe a tighter story might suit the premise better. Thanks!

@introvert_girl

Sure no problem.

@skye That’s a good list of authors. 🙂

😀 Actually, yes, BTD is where my username originally came from. I started using it years ago and it’s just kinda stuck. I’m assuming you’ve played the game, because you’re the first one to ask that.

@juliawrites4christ Welcome to the best (and strangest) place on the Internet!

We always need more Narnia fans! 😉 My personal favorite is The Silver Chair.

@skye Welcome to KP!

It’s cool that you write medieval fantasy. I don’t see too much of that. 🙂

Any favorite authors?

@seekjustice I finished it. AHHH I just LOVE how you tied Les Mis and AToTC together! That is So. Cool! But all the sadness. *cries* So soon. It’s too much o_o Until there’s more, of course!

Also *shakes finger* Poor @rochellaine *hands you some tissues*

XD Chessy and Justice, I didn’t really think they should get together at the end of Stars…[Read more]

@skye

Welcome fellow INTJ to the bestistest place on the internet! Hope you enjoy yourself here! 😀

So what are your favourite books?

@rochellaine

Yeah I think I might do that. Thanks!

@mnvalentine

I agree with what everyone else has said. I think the problem has to do with the pacing and the passiveness of the main character. There is a lot of description that slow the story down and much of the information conveyed through dialogue could have easily been summed up in a few lines.

Just some thoughts…

#1: The article in the…[Read more]

@daeus

I might consider that. Thanks!

@rochellaine

Haha I know you guys are all really nice. The problem is that people outside the KP forums can access it as well and I’m shy about my writing. 😳

@that_writer_girl_99

Hmm… I did think about using that feature but I know not everyone may want to give out their email so I wanted to check if…[Read more]
