You write in order to change the world… if you alter, even my a millimeter, the way people look at reality, then you can change it.

Welcome to Kingdom Pen! It’s great to have another KeePer here:) I’ll have to check out Scribble Society, it’s hard to find good writing resources, but if your looking to finish a first draft, NaNoWriMo has a great method.
Welcome:)

Go Teen Writers is a really great blog with a lot of helpful writing advice! And for YouTube channels iWriterly and Reedsy are some videos I’ll sometimes watch. And for books I’ve started reading Teen Writers’ Guide: Your Road Map for Writing by Jennifer Jenkins. I haven’t gotten very far in it but so far it’s been very awesome!!!! (Also, since…[Read more]

Haha, yeah, that was a really hard part for me ’cause I don’t normally write about the whole “teenage experience” either. XD

I’m Ella, btw, and a couple of things about me:

LOL!! 😆
That’s the hardest thing for me, because I don’t know how quickly to start it. Some people write the inciting incident in their first chapter and some write it in the third, lol!! (I personally agree with you on that)
Thank you SO much!!!!!
I totally will, thanks!!!

aahh, I had school sadly and missed this. I haven’t gotten to write for the past week and it’s been super depressing. I’m REALLY hoping to get back into my WIP tomorrow. *crossing fingers* Have you gotten to any writing yet?

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic Writing First Chapters… in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 4 months ago
Okay, so, some others might have already said this (I kind of didn’t read through all of the answers) so my apologies if I’m just repeating the same stuff. But as Joy Caroline said a big thing to watch out for is info dump. Don’t just tell the reader everything that’s has happened. Backstory can come later if/when needed. Only show what…[Read more]

I know you’ve written a bunch of great chapters!!!! 😃
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! That’s SUPER helpful!!!! I agree, first lines tend to hook readers. I do spend a lot of time on that, but I don’t want to overdue it. (I have read some books where it seems like the author spent two years writing the first line, lol!! &#x…[Read more]

Unfortunately not, I’ve been sick the past couple weeks so I’ve been having to take care of myself and focus on recovery and schoolwork. I’ve been swamped with responsibilities and haven’t found any time to write lately. In fact, I was just about to sit down for the first time in weeks and write.
Aww, I’m SO sorry!!! I’ll be praying for you. Good luck writing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aw, thank you!!! <3
