@daughteroftheking Oh, c’mon, it can’t be that bad… XD I was just looking through a fantasy novel I wrote when I was 8, and one line was, “We don’t want to go there looking like we been fighting with a baby squirrel!” XD

@dragon-snapper Those are really cool! The design is excellent and it just screams sci-fi. I would have imagined the characters a little differently, but Ike’s pretty good actually.

You know you’re a writer when you can’t watch a movie without going: “Hey that looks like ____{fill in the blank}”

@emily I use Powerpoint, actually. XD It’s easier than Paint. 😛
@jessi-rae Well, not subspace, but it does have to do with lots of computery stuff. It is sci-fi. And wow, are pictures for sci-fi hard to find!
@winter-rose 😀 Thank you, Frodo! Unknown realms are hard realms. But fun realms. Me loves sci-fi, but the fantasy pictures are the…[Read more]

@Salome01w4g @corissa-maiden-of-praise @graciegirl @hope @kate-flournoy @emily @shannon @winter-rose @catwing @daeus
So up to now my book has remained a pretty big mystery. I haven’t really said anything as to names or plot or stuff. But here’s a collage for one of my MCs, Ike, in my WIP: SECTOR ONE: INSURRECTION.

@that_writer_Girl_99 Wow…I’m sure what everyone else has said is good meats. Listen to them. Though I am curious as to what you will do in the end. Let me know, por favor.

@gh24682468999 Woah…nice long tag. 😛
Well…I’m not quite sure how to help you here–dialogue has usually been natural for me. I learned mostly by observation in reading. Some books have some really good dialogue, and somehow, when I was ten, managed to soak that up.
So I guess what I’m saying here is that definitely observing what other…[Read more]

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Of Names in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 12 months ago
@Dragon-Snapper I LOVE NAMES. I NAME EVERYTHING.
*coughs*
With that crucial bit of random information out of the way, I’d tend to agree with you. The best fantasy names are those that don’t look so absolutely foreign they’re impossible to relate to. The name should describe your character, not overshadow him. Personally I love old Norse, Saxon,…[Read more] -

@clairec Ugh, humidity is definitely the worst. 🙁 Winter doesn’t sound too bad though; maybe I’ll have to come visit sometime. 😉

Corissa Maiden of Praise replied to the topic Of Names in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 12 months ago
Oh goodness, names… what makes them too much… let’s see.
I’d say that most everything has already been said- I especially agree with Josiah about making sure the names sound like they’re from a similar culture for everyone within the same culture of your story. But then, maybe you have someone with a name from a different culture, and maybe it…[Read more] -
