I think someone has already said this, but the best way I can think of to start a plot is to create some conflict. Make something go wrong and figure out how the characters can fix the problem. Also, a great way to start is to brainstorm. Think about your characters, your story. It helps. 🙂 Anyway, that’s my brilliant advice. 😉

@DaughteroftheKing

Fascinating question. 😀 Are you looking for ideas to write songs of your own?
I love, love, love the lyrics to most of the songs by The Gray Havens. What I like about most of their lyrics is that you’re not 100% sure what they’re talkin about at first. XD But by the end everything starts making sense. Their songs are like…[Read more]

@DelightinLife Ah, looks like you’re well taken care of here. XD
Actually, I’ve been having trouble with this meself so super-thanks for starting this thread!

@rjk Yes, Pinterest is invaluable for all forms of creative endeavors. I use photos I find there as references for my sketches/paintings all the time too! I’ve never tried oils but I love looking at the paintings you can make with them.

BWAHAHAHA!

@Emma-Flournoy @That_writer_Girl_99 WHAT WAS I JUST SAYING. DID I JUST SAY THAT? OR DID I JUST SAY THAT? 😛 😛 😛

Okay. I’m done.

@Emma-Flournoy oh please.

*cowers* I stand corrected. That would be bad. XD

@Emma-Flournoy

@Emma-Flournoy *amused smirk* Perhaps. Though I’m inclined to think you got more than your share of the practical side. XD

@WarrioroftheRealm hmm… honestly, fantasy creatures are such a random hodge-podge of so many different things I wouldn’t worry too much about it, but I can see what you’re saying.

Umm… *scratches head* What about it right now makes it look like a missing link? Just the combined birdlike and reptilian features? If that’s a problem, you could…[Read more]

*refrains from depreciatory and annoyingly practical remarks and lets you bask in reflected glory just this once*

XD

Yup, @Emma-Flournoy and I are sisters. Everyone thinks she’s older because she’s taller (*whispers* and more mature :”D) but I am the oldest, so… *shrugs**grins*

@RJK yeah… KP is just about swamped with INFPs. 😛 Tied for close second is INTJ, actually, and surprisingly most are women. INTJ women are supposed to be practically nonexistent. 😛

… how much of an MBTI nut are you? Because I’m pretty far gone… but I don’t wanna overwhelm you with random psychology dumps. XD

@RJK hey! I’m an INFP too! Though I’m afraid no one in their right mind would ever mistake me for a Judger. XD

Let’s see, forum etiquette. *dons official ‘Director of Happiness’ robes* The only hard and fast rule is don’t tag more than ten people in one post, and then only relevant ones. Otherwise, general rules of Christian love. Not complicated. 😉

@RJK Welcome!!! Because this is what I do when I introduce myself on here…

I’m Daeus’s (little) sister.
I like to write, obviously.
I like ice cream and raspberries too. (Daeus can’t be the only one.) Oh, and blueberries.
I like to memorize scripture (see the Scripture Memorization thread if you can find it.)

What are your favorite books?…[Read more]

*runs in late and stands staring at the gobs of good advice*
I love you people.

@DelightinLife personally, when I’m having plot issues it’s usually a problem with the protagonist. And when I come down to it, it’s usually because he hasn’t got any contradictions. He’s too predictable to do anything unexpected. Every character has something that…[Read more]

@RJK heyyyyy! Nice to ‘see’ you again. 😉 I see you found the introductory topics. *is glad she can give directions* XD

Wow… literally hundreds? *goggles* That’s… awesome? I hope you figure something out. 😛 I thought I had at least dozens, but I counted and came down to fifteen major ideas, so I was glad to find it a little more manageable.…[Read more]

Hi, @Rjk,

Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.

Zikers, that’s a lot of ideas! (You aren’t an ENFP, are you?)

Well, I’m excited to see what discussions you bring up. See you around.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 sorry I missed you. 🙁 I’m about to walk out the door too. I might possibly be available Friday though.
*hands you inspiration just in case*

*spits tea all over her keyboard*

I suppose there are worse things to be known for. XD
