Thanks, @hannah-c ! Good luck to you too.
So far, I’ve written 1,544 words. Writing has been kinda slow since I still need to finish organizing my notes and read over my prewriting before I can really go forward with it, but I should have that finished within the next couple of days.
How are things going with the rest of you and your…[Read more]

Wow @Hope, I have to use my mouth? Oh boy. *starts looking around for a notebook and pen* I need to write all this awesome advice down before I forget any of it! 😉
Okay, so another thought having to do with this topic. (Which by the way is highly intuitive— I apologize to those of you who are more structurally minded. I know it can be kinda…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic Titles…again in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 5 months ago
I don’t know @Hope. Just brainstorm or something. Maybe these questions will reveal some key aspect of your story
What’s one word that describes your protagonist?
What’s one word that describes your antagonist?
What’s your protagonist’s lie?
Do you have any repeated phrases throughout the story?
What swings the tide at the climax?
What is the…[Read more] -

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Titles…again in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 5 months ago
Hoo boy. Let’s see @Hope.
*Thinks*
Nope, can’t think of anything.
Therefore, I will proceed to rant. Feel free to ignore.
Actually, I’m more like mumbling to myself because I hate myself for not being able to think of anything clever. 😛
So I’m wondering, why exactly is it you want clashing in the title? I get that it has to do with the…[Read more] -
Kate Flournoy replied to the topic And the Moral to THAT is… in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago
@Hope I know! *sniff* All the backstories of all my different characters are so complex and amazing (‘scuse me while I pat myself on the back) and yet good writing compels me to ignore them.
*sigh*
Oh well. Maybe one day I can turn all the backstories into books of their own. 😉 Fans would love that, don’t you think?
*gulp* Assuming I have any fans… 😉 -

Brave goals, @hannah-c ! You go for it. 🙂
@daeus , did you say, “semi-dystopian time travel save the world story.” because, you had me at “time travel,” and possibly even at “semi-dystopian.” Please write it now! 😀 (Warning: That is my crazy excited face, a good sign you should take a break from this forum and ignore all of my future tags if…[Read more]

@Hope I KNOW! I don’t cry when reading books or watching movies much at all. But I was bawling at the end of Wingfeather Saga. :'(
@zoe-wingfeather JANNER WAS THE BEST CHARACTER EVER!!! *sobs*
@winter-rose Hmm, I don’t know. I think I liked the second book, too, because I loved the Fork Factory part. -
Greta replied to the topic Where do you live? in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago
@winter-rose Yay! I’m from Ohio, too. And I didn’t know that about the Avengers. Pretty cool.
@Hope Funny, Ohio’s state bird is the cardinal, too. 😉 😛 -

Do you have a state animal and if so what is it????

Hey guys @Daeus @Hope @Jadamae @Gretald @Bluejay @Emma-Flournoy @anyone-else-who-was-on-this-topic, what do you think of the title ‘The Way Not Taken’? I know, I know, it’s not one word, but I kinda like it just the same. I’d forgotten about it until today, when a friend brought it up in a letter that I’d been considering that as a title. What do…[Read more]

Editing my WIP, and then *takes deep breath* I have finally decided to start rewriting my WIP’s prequel. Which I should have done the moment I finished it two years ago. It needs it. Majorly. 😛
I’m also planning to do a bit of work on a retelling of Snow White called The Mirror— just a novella, but fun nonetheless. @Hope got me hooked on…[Read more] - Load More
