cool topic, sry im late!  here’s a quick lowdown of my charries:

Emiyn Martinez, eighteen, was Selected to go to Nova Terra.  She has to leave behind her sister, Aven, who is alone with autism.  With hidden talents and a secret past, she will do anything to save Aven.  But there are some who will do anything to take advantage of Em’s tal…[Read more]

Great topic!  …now I have to remember what I read last! 😆  I’m pretty sure it was The False Prince by Jennifer A. Nielsen.  My favorite thing was probably the MC, Sage’s, personality.  He was street-smart and sarcastic, but also noble.  My least favorite thing was the pace.  A lot of the time it was super slow, with occas…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

THANK YOU SO MUCH TOO!!!
(Curse that all caps button for being such a temptation to use all the time XD ).
Seriously though, I appreciate it:) Yeah, the boat ride was awkward, (but surprisingly extremely fun to write). It’s hilarious/sometimes sweet/frustrating when they bicker and get at each other because I know that they will…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

I understand exactly what you mean. I can write a fifty-word dialogue exchange, then mull over it for a half-hour wondering all the ways I could edit it. So yep, NaNoWriMo is a nice break from editing:)
No problem, it’s the least a fellow WriMo-er can do to warn you of the upcoming month!

So as I said, I probably monologue talk/intro some about my five primary characters a bit.

The protagonist of TSW is Mejia, (whom I still have to invent a Russian variant of that name for *sigh*…)
She is right up there in the top characters for complicated/tragic pasts and one of the strongest characters of TSW. She is a sixteen-year-old…[Read more]

@joy-caroline @daisy-torres

Thank you!! 😀

@writerlexi1216

Precisely! And that’s true, I guess that when the good things happen to them, it’s even better because of how much it will contrast to them suffering, (*puts hands up in defense as my characters glare at me*).
*Whew* I’m glad it wasn’t un-legible. I love wolves too, and they fit in pretty nicely Birch Woods. Thank you incredibly…[Read more]

@trulyyours_karilyn

OOoh, girl, your story was SPECTACULAR!!!!! I loooved how you mixed a few fairytales together and how it TOTALLY didn’t end up how I expected it. Plus, the SUSPENSE!!!! I mean, WHO POISONED THE PRINCESS?????!!!!! I. Need. To. Know. 😉 And as @gracie-j said it was actually really hilarious. Plus, I like having the whole deep…[Read more]

@gracie-j I just read you story, Secret Agent Girls!! That was a really clever idea!!!!!!!!😀 I love spy stories and I thought it was so cool that they wanted girls at the Spy Academy!!!!! Also, you are a genius at coming up with names!!!! My favorites were Audrey, Justin, Jason, and Gwen!

So I wrote an informally structured haiku about writing and decided to share it here:)

Write. Write a story,
And find its worth, then draw a
line and shake the earth.

@gracie-j Haha, thank you!!!😄 Aww, you’re welcome!!!! You’re so nice!!!!<3

@nova21 I love the names of your characters! They’re so cool!!!

@writerlexi1216

NP! It’s perfectly fine and honestly, it didn’t take you all that long.
*Wipes perspiration from forehead* Whew! I’m glad that it was helpful!
And YES! This is one sport where making messes is highly encouraged because you never know what awesome stuff can become of it! 😀 And one of the few rules that WriMo has is no editing…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

So true, (but I don’t think they believe me *sigh* oh well, I guess that it’s just a tradition for writers and their characters to be on these kind of terms XD ).
Thank you! Looking back, the post looks a little messy, but yep, wolves play a lot of roles in the novel, (defeinetly an intense scene. But it’s written as a flashback…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

So very true. 🙂

@devastate-lasting

Ooh, I love that! “Frost day”, that’s so poetic:)  Yeah, that is cool that we both have Adrain characters! 😀

@writerlexi1216

Aww, that’s so sad and utterly adorable at the same time!
*High fives also*… I don’t think characters understand why we writers high-five about their scars, *sigh,* it’s hard explaining plot development to them… XD
Mejia got hers during her three-year trials in becoming a warrior and was from the claw of a white wolf that she…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Awesome topic!  Well, the first story I ever wrote (called “The Terres of the Man”) was about three animals: Wanna (I mean, what the heck??? XD) the horse, Carrie the anteater, and Joe the frog.  There is a “Mean Man” who kidnaps Joe and brings him to his cave, which is a “terres” in case anyone is interested. 🤦‍♀️  Wanna and Ca…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

In answer to your question, yep! I have a couple of characters like that, but they’re in the backdrops for the most part. Specifically, Dimitri Danilovich and Adrik Rogozin, who is secondary and the other only spoken from memory.

@writerlexi1216

Newton worries about embarrassing Caira with his stutter?! Great… just great… now I have a whole new bunch of fangirling to do about them XD
And when @Gracie-j‘s done borrowing them, can I have a turn?
*Gasps* Deek gets a scar?! Yikes and wow at the same time! Mejia has one too, but it’s only about three inches long on the…[Read more]
