@gracie-j Still the same lol. Hoping to get some writing done today. I took a step back to make a scene outline and kinda start over on my draft (I kept most of what I already wrote, and may transfer some stuff but gonna open a new fresh file and restart) so yea. Wish me luck! I really wanna get it done by June or July! (And the reason so long is…[Read more]

Ooooh boy. Here we go. So, this probs isn’t a well known series or anything, but prepare yourselves for a SMACKDOWN OF THIS SERIES BECAUSE UUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!

*Takes deep calming breaths.* Okay….relax.

So, Disney Hyperion made a book series, and the first book was called The Neptune Project. I read it and it was pretty good. I mean, not like…[Read more]

@ugroza Oh man I’ve got a lot lol! I like Jocelyn, because she’s just so much fun and a real bright spot, but I also have other characters I adore! Like Grimm, who is so sweet but also stuck in the past, and November who is quirky and adorable! And….UGH PAXTON. A little boy whose been used and bullied for his entire life.

so many.

oh and Cor…[Read more]

@gracie-j Thanks!! And yes I have quite a few suspects, and each one could have done it so it definitely keeps u guessing! That and the fact that the actual killer isn’t really a suspect makes for a major plot twist. Also, Jocelyn has the motive, but not the means. Motive being, after her Uncle dies, she becomes Ringmaster, leader of Cirque, w…[Read more]

@gracie-j OOH MAN THANK U!! Ahhh the second tip is WONDERFUL!! And yea, I think with Lyn (Jocelyn) hers will be more of, she has to because she was found with the victim’s body, and is the primary suspect. But she’s been fairly sheltered, making her a bit naive, so she isn’t a vengeful person. In fact, she’s horrified at the thought that someone…[Read more]

Also thanks to everyone for the tips!

@issawriter7 ….Yea im not entirely sure what I need either XD. I’m just struggling.

@gracie-j so any idea when u might be able to give me those tips or whatever? I’d really appreciate them.

I think I’m gonna try to make some new collages using Canva! Cuz those are gorgeous!!

And some of the problem might be the scenes I have ideas for after this just seem boring to me now. I mostly just have talking to suspects and looking for clues, which as a whole sounds boring, and I don’t know exactly how to do those scenes. I want to have cool, threatening, thrilling scenes, but not sure how to transition.

Wait.

That’s…[Read more]

@gracie-j @devastate-lasting @r-m-archer @issawriter7 @joy-caroline @kathleenramm

I could really use some help. As I mentioned, I’m doing a long “outline” of all of my scene ideas, but now I’m running low on steam lol. I’ve reached the part in the outline right before the Fun and Games begins (most of the middle).

First, I’m struggling with the…[Read more]

I also love You’re Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile by Sia. It’s great for my character Jocelyn, and I think anyone who has a very upbeat, smiley character might enjoy this song!

Imagine dragons is also great. I just luv music lol

@gracie-j What about sharing music that inspires our WIPs? For me, I love the live action dumbo soundtrack! It’s great for the Circus vibe and has a lot of great instrumentals. (My 3 favs from the album is Logo, Trains A Comin’ and Pink Elephants on Parade!)

Nyx, Jocelyn’s pet/best friend. (Who looks more like a Fennec Fox then the sugar glider in the middle picture.)

Jocelyn!

November

This is Arabella Fable, my protagonist.

@jenwriter17 AHHHHH SOOO INCREDIBLE! I luv making collages about my characters!!  I’m gonna share mine if that’s alright!

Also, I had an awesome idea everyone. As I’ve mentioned on other forum posts, I’m currently writing down an “Everything I have for the book” list or whatever. Well I printed out a bit of what I’ve got (not finished lol) and…[Read more]
