Hannah A. Krynicki

Interesting thoughts, everyone!
As far as writing goes, I noticed that there was a lot of telling in the beginning, too, but as you said @daeus, I don’t think that it was necessarily a bad technique. As a reader, I was engaged the entire time. And that’s really all that matters, right? 😉
The characters are great. Each animal has a strikingly…[Read more]

@hannah-krynicki I think that’s a good guess, though if I hadn’t known Orwell’s own beliefs, I would have guessed it was against any form of socialist/communist government whatsoever. If you approach the book from a purely logical standpoint, I think you will find that it teaches the risk of attempting a communist society is greater than any…[Read more]

@hannah-krynicki Well, to be technical, he wasn’t against communism (in fact, even though he’s called a socialist, I think communist would be a better term for him). Socialism according to Marx is the necessary middle point in transitioning from capitalism to communism. Socialism is defined as all property being owned by the state and (at least in…[Read more]

@hannah-krynicki I agree with you. I also noticed the voice, which I thought was kind of tongue of cheek. He writes the facts, doesn’t expound on them, yet nonetheless there is a sort of irony. (ex., near the end of Chapter 2, the milk disappears)

On another note, this one structural, the inciting event takes place at about 13% through the book,…[Read more]

Everybody got a copy yet? We should try to get started here soon.

People, we’re voting in the “which book to read topic” you might want to jump on over there. 🙂

Goody, now let me round in the other peeps. Hmm, let’s see.

Phew, that’s a lot. I have got to take a break for minute.
Come on you next lot. Let’s cover the USA. 😀

@hannah-krynicki I was actually in the middle of writing, despite not know what was going on. Now I’ll have to figure out how the new idea works in the rest of the story.

Hi everyone! Sorry I didn’t respond sooner. 🙂

Thank you all for your advise! @writefury, I haven’t done much of anything yet…I guess I didn’t know where to start (but I did come up with the MC’s name, which is a start 🙂 ).

@hannah-krynicki, that’s a great idea! I’ll have to try that.

@kate-flournoy and @daeus, I will have to refer back…[Read more]

You do have a nice big family, @Hannah-Krynicki! I have four brothers and five sisters— just the opposite! It’s quite an adventure, isn’t it? 😉

@Hannah-Krynicki I suppose them just being in the bestistest place makes them bestister.

Welcome @Hannah-Krynicki! I love fantasy too. Are you working on a fantasy story right now?

Welcome to the forum @Hannah-Krynicki! Always glad to have a newbie on here. 🙂 The problem with newbies is, they don’t stay that way. 😉 😛

What kind of fantasy do you like to write? More of a historical style (like Tolkien) or incredibly fantastic fantasy? Like— really weird, awesome stuff that I don’t have a term for without going into a…[Read more]
