@joy-caroline

Awww, girl, this was sooo BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for sharing these AMAZING thoughts!!! I COMPLETELY AGREE ONE HUNDRED PERCENT!!!!!!!! I have been raised in a Baptist church. All of my family members from way back are Baptist. But I don’t think of myself as Baptist. I’m a Christian!!! There’s no need for those other…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Oooh, I LOVE THIS!!!! I COMPLETELY understand about listening to all the writing tips and stuff. I was recently getting kind of down ’cause my stories just didn’t always sound like my own writing voice ’cause I was letting all the advice become the sole way to write and it just wasn’t fun anymore. So when I started working on my…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Oooh, LOVE THIS IDEA!! I’ve actually done something quite similar once in a story. (Well, I had planned it. Sadly, that story never made it past the first book so I didn’t get to write it. *pouting* But I had a few ideas that might help!) If you wanna hint it, you could try dropping clues like pointing out if they had some physical…[Read more]

Seia would rather jump around everywhere.

Would your character rather live off-the-grid or in the middle of the city?

@kathleenramm

I love that!!  Thanks so much!!  I especially like #9.  I can put scenes in every category that you and @erinrramm mentioned, so we’ll just see if I can put it into word form!!! 😃

@godlyfantasy12

I feel you–I’m a huge perfectionist!!!

Great idea!

@abigail-m

Thanks!!  That looks awesome, thanks!!!

Ikr?  A great example of a really good first chapter is from the Hunger Games.  I don’t know how she does it!!! 😃

@godlyfantasy12

Those look great!!  (ur nails are so cute btw 😉)

@godlyfantasy12

yass girl!!!!  Keep it up!!  (Next time can you buy me a caramel frappé and ship it to me? 😋 jk)

@abigail-m

that’s a great idea!!!!!  I think I’ll try that.

@abigail-m
Whoa, that’s actually awesome that you’re gonna go a few days without internet!!! I’m gonna shamefully admit I’m not sure if I could do that. XD Anyway, that’s perfectly alright!! I LOVE THESE QUOTES TOO SOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!! They’re VERY inspiring!!! <33

I hate having to say this because I just began the daily writing quotes, but I most likely won’t be able be able to post the daily quote for about three days. (Turns out, when you go into the wilderness, you don’t get internet connection;)

But for anyone who reads the daily quote, I’m posting three here and hopefully I’ll be able to get on trac…[Read more]

@issawriter7

Thanks:)

(It’s one of my favorites).

@nova21

Oh and btw, I completely understand about writing a first chapter that seems awful. I’m rewriting my novel and I’m basically starting from the second chapter, because every time I attempt chapter #1, it always comes out terrible.

@nova21

Your first chapter outline is extremely interesting!
Kingdom Pen has a really great article that has helped me a lot and covers just about everything on first chapters that I can think of:

Write The Perfect First Chapter | The Ultimate First Chapter Checklist, by Kathleen and Erin Ramm.

@godlyfantasy12

Okay!! YUM!!! That actually sounds SUPER DELICIOUS!!

@abigail-m

AAHHH I LOVE THIS QUOTE!!!!!!!!! <33

@epicaddie2

Yes, Norway and Russia is a fantastic places for settings, (I haven’t done Norway yet myself). I’m no professor, but if you ever have any questions about ancient Russia, I might be able to help.

@nova21

With WIPs, I usually have one that is my main focus (where I put all my resources, researching, energy, etc into) then I have a few that I work on when I need a break from my main WIP. This method might not be for everyone, but it’s worked very well so far.
