Thank you!! 😀 Mistake In The Mist is set in Ireland and the whole story takes place in the dark hours of a damp and foggy morning. It’s a mysterious and slightly spooky tale of an occurrence of a kelpie, that a sea captain’s daughter mistakes for her horse.
It’s not extremely spooky, because even though I like kelpies and ghosts,…[Read more] -

I’m really glad that makes sense! I was hoping it wasn’t too confusing <3 Exactly! It’s finding that balance that’s so difficult, but I’ll take your advice and try studying the endings of some books! That’s a great idea 🙂 Ooh, I’ve never heard of some of those books before (I’ll have to check them out!)
Thank you for the…[Read more]

Girl, this means so much to me!!! Just reading that made me feel a lot better on the inside <3 And you helped me to change my perspective about feeling down, too! I never thought of it that way, that even though writing is hard, it shows talent and courage. That made me feel so much better! I’ll definitely keep that in mind every…[Read more]

GRACIE, thank you!!! You have no idea how big I was smiling when I read that 🙂 That’s such a relief to know that I’m not alone, because I guess I get so wrapped up in thinking that I’m the only writer who feels this way. But that really helped me to know that it’s completely normal.
And oh my gosh, that’s so sweet!! I’m honestly so…[Read more]

Girl, THANK YOU!!! <33333333 That means soooooo much to hear you say that you like it! 😀 Sometimes I get so nervous wondering if people think my stories sound interesting, so that’s SUPER encouraging (and brought a huge smile to my face!) Oh, I would totally want you to beta read for me!

Oh, NEAT!! I know what you mean, when you find that perfect name and you’re like THIS IS THE NAME FOR MY CHARACTER. Isn’t that such an amazing feeling???
Oh, I’d love to tell you about it!! Now, I’m TERRIBLE at writing summaries, so sorry if this sounds suuuuper confusing or anything. I’ll give it a shot.
So… Caira is one of the o…[Read more]

That’s SOOOO COOOL! And I love the name Cascade! That’s so pretty and neat! I’ve been trying hard not to get distracted with more book ideas because I feel like I’ll stop writing on the one I’m on XD But I have made a couple of characters for a new book…

NP:) I’ve been pretty busy too, but I’m glad you like the quotes! And yes, writers never really get a break, since we’re working even when we’re simply staring out a window XD

Ooooh, Into the Lamp has a sequel in progress? EEEEK! That’s neat! By the way, I’m so sorry I haven’t gotten back with you about reading it! I’m a suuuuper slow reader sometimes, so it takes me longer than most people. It has nothing to do with the story, though–the story is ah-may-zhing!! Just wanted to throw that out there l…[Read more]

Abigail.M. replied to the topic Writing A Series in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 6 months ago
I haven’t had much experience writing series yet, but I’ve read plenty of them, and three things that I notice work are:
1# The character’s arc isn’t resolved right away.
2# The love interest doesn’t confess anything in the first few stories.
3# And an ongoing fear.
Not that these observations mean a whole lot, but they seem…[Read more]

Girl, I feel you!! I could talk about my WIP for literal hours (if not days)! And yeah, I’ve already spoiled some of it on the plot twists forum… so sorry about that lol
That’s a good idea about printing out character arcs! I may copy you and do that myself! 🙂

@godlyfantasy12 Ah yes if you haven’t heard of my biggest project it’s a series that consists of thirteen series- I’m halfway through series number four so I think I’ve got a pretty good handle on things, as of now. Most of it is a mess but, y’know…
So if you watch anime, like I do, there are these things called “seasons” and “arcs”. Season…[Read more]
