@writerlexi1216 Ah thank you! I’ll work hard, I swear.

@gracie-j Thank you so much!

@lewilliams Whoa, that looks great! Did you draw that sketch?

@godlyfantasy12

If you’re looking for books with rulers/armies/medieval government/battles/warriors/and knights/etc; the new york times bestselling Ranger’s Apprentice fits the description pretty adequately. I’ve only read one book so far, but it might be a series you may be interested in:)

@abigail-m

I’m sure you will! 😉 Yeah, outlining visually can be a huge inspiration booster, so you go for it!! <33

Aww, OF COURSE I don’t mind!!! I’m seriously over the moon that other people like my characters, and I’m even more honored that you’d want to draw them!!! Haha, you can borrow them all you’d like! I’m really looking forward to…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

That’s such a mood ;-;

‘Course! And oh my word XD I think all your ideas sound interesting, and I’m looking forward to beta-reading some of your work! I’ll be on the lookout for it! 😉

@writerlexi1216

I sure hope I’ll have some ideas next writing session:) But yes, outlining scenes visually helps give me different perspectives and it’s really fun:)
NP:D Your trio has been my star muses for illustrating for the past month (I hope you don’t mind my borrowing them XD ).  I can’t wait to be able to post them all! 🙂

Finally finished with the Jehayi set…think I’ll work on the main cast next…

@scoutfinch180 Also, basically my plan is to start posting stuff online to garner attention while also trying to land an agent and working on things… Around this time last year I finally grew comfortable enough with my writing quality to post some online.. I say go for it, if you’re comfortable with it! Can’t hurt. Do watch for pirates though.…[Read more]

@scoutfinch180 Of course! It’s growing, I think, and has some famous creators on there…Big readership as well. I do have to warn you though, that a lot of the content and things are a bit more on the liberal side…then again, all sites have that kind of stuff, but it has much nicer conditions and workspace than what I have seen before. And I’ve…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver I would kind of agree. I would not publish my first novel. The one which I’m currently working to publish is something I came up with/wrote after like 11 other novels. I believe Story Embers has an article on such…

Are You Publishing Your Book Too Soon?

@scoutfinch180 I believe that while the majority of Tapas seems to be anime-type stuff, I think you can publish pretty much whatever you want there.

@writerlexi1216 Ah…I have so many ideas now, but I just don’t know what to do with my life anymore…just gotta recover a bit, I think. (Haha, thank you! My mom saw it when I was just starting it and she asked, “Why do you always write such sad things?” and then walked away.)

Oh, I’d love to have you as a beta-reader! I’ll tag you!

@wyn-rose

Great topic!! <33 Oddly enough, I’ve come very close to starting this topic as well… So, for me, I think titles are the first thing I judge about a novel, so I’d recommend putting a lot of time into a good one. With that said, I’m still trying to find the right title for my book (it’s currently Fortitude, but I don’t think that’ll…[Read more]

@Abigail-m

Oh, that’s okay!! Sometimes your head needs a break from writing; I’m sure you’ll have tons of new ideas the next time you get to writing 🙂 Oh, seriously? That’s amazing!!! I agree–making your novel as visual as possible helps a lot, which is why I’ve made so many collages… *eyes widen* Plot twists??? That sounds suspenseful ;)…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Oh, yikes! I still have some homework to get to… *sigh* Hey, that’s awesome, girl!! Congrats!! (Oh my gosh, that title is so interesting!) Haha, I’m glad you’ve made some progress. And I’m more than happy to beta-read for you when the time comes, if you’d like 🙂

@writerlexi1216

I’ll have to confess that I haven’t done much writing today. At least not traditional noveling. I have actually been working on a graphic novel outline of The Snow Warrior or at least trying to. I thought it might help my project to have some visual grounds to work with. So I’m mostly jotting down random scenes (mostly the fun…[Read more]

@wyn-rose Mm…I’ll throw some examples out and my thought process behind them.

The Mafia of Heather Flights

My sister said it was pretty self-explanatory; no need to change it to something aesthetic. Got a place, a group, and it makes you wonder. The most basic title I have, probably. But it represents what the whole work is about.

I Hid…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 Doing homework instead…also I feel really tired…not sure why. But I hope to catch up on the weekend.

I did finish drafting Like Cherry Blossoms in the Spring, My Tears Fell Freely That Day so I think I’ll get around to editing and rewriting some bits soon. And then I’ll hand it to my sister to roast, and then I’ll post here…[Read more]

@wyn-rose

This is a great topic! As for me, sometimes I have more title ideas than I do titles, other times I draw a blank when I desperately need one XD But the title of my most recent WIP, (is as some of you probably know) The Snow Warrior. And actually, that was the title that came with the photo that inspired my whole novel, and it was just a…[Read more]
