Thanks for answering! This is a fun topic. 😀

@dekreel *speaks sweetly and logically* It looks like a wolf tail would look if it were shaved. A lot of canines shave their tails for aesthetic appeal.
Anyway, I promised that if you behaved enough like a human I wouldn’t make you disappear. So you’re safe for the present. Just don’t do too much of that growling and scratching random wa…[Read more]

@destiny Oh, my goodness! I completely forgot about that wonderful book! “Kerplink, kerplank, kerplunk!” is so much fun! Soooo, that book title is crossed of my list. Thanks! 😀
As for your characters…
Character 1: I created the names Lurnaz and Landke Gabis, and because they have the hard “s” sound like Paradaisia I think they could wor…[Read more]

@dekreel I have never scratched walls in ecstasy, but I can understand a wolf feeling the need to do so.
(Because, my dear, you are technically a wolf.)

@aedesia Hi! Welcome! You should introduce yourself in the “Start Here” section of the forum so we can get to know you. 😀
If you want us to help critique your short story, could you post a shareable link to it in a google document? If you don’t know how, I can explain, or you can probably google it to get the information.

@warrenluther04 Usually when people want beta-readers here on KP they post a link to a google doc in the “Novel Critique” or “Short Story Critique” sections of the forum, then tag some people and ask them to look it over. Sometimes we ask for comments directly in the comments section of the google document (In that case you have to “allow…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99Â Ooh, boy. Let’s try this…
Here is a little tactic for writing a compelling, and non-cliche fantasy story: Diversify your world. By all means include dragons, elves, knights, old parchments and/or a mentor or two — because those are AWESOME. But imagine how much more awesome your world would be if you added a unique…[Read more]

Cool! I like to draw too 😀 Also mostly pencil, though watercolors and markers are pretty cool.
I actually wondered if you drew your profile picture. It looks cool! Is it supposed to be one of your characters? Or just a random lady. (I draw a lot of random ladies 🙂 .. )Sewing is pretty cool too! I don’t sew but I think it…[Read more]

@ariella-newheart
Personally I would say yes… Though this might just be a matter of opinion.. Might I suggest trying to combine a few of the characters into one? That could cut out a good chunk. You’d just have to figure out what parts of them are relevant or important to the story and figure out how to take that and put that into a different…[Read more] -
valtmy replied to the topic How many characters is too many? in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
How many characters is needed really depends on your story. If your series is supposed to be a sprawling epic, having 30 recurring characters might be appropriate or even expected. Just a few tips that might be helpful:
- Do not introduce too many characters all at once. This will just get confusing for readers.
- Be clear on…

@seekjustice Ummm, which Joseph? There were two important ones. I’m assuming you mean the one from Genesis, not the one from Matthew and Luke?
Yeah, I would never think of crushing on most of the characters in the Bible, no matter how much I admire them. But for some reason Jonathan really appeals to me as a man, not just a hi…[Read more]
