Rochellaine replied to the topic Contemporary Western Novel in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 3 months ago
Hello friends! After a short break during which I wrote barely anything and mostly worked on planning the book, I’ve finally started actually writing it! So I have the next short section done, (I haven’t separated anything in chapters yet, so I’m just calling it sections,) and am editing it a bit myself, but would like some beta readers to e…[Read more]

hehe, true, true.
I’ll for sure check out those books, thank you!
I haven’t seen any old western movies….

@jenwriter17 Cool. Out of the old TV shows I’ve seen only Bonanza, Cheyenne, and a little bit of The Virginian. I prefer western movies, though I like other genres of shows. Have you seen any old westerns?
Okay, I would definitely recommend Zane Grey. He is the best western author I’ve ever read. His books are pretty gritty, since they’…[Read more]

@rochellaine Oh, you decide if you want that giveaway link? 😉

@rochellaine I’ve watched Bonanza, Big Valley, Gunsmoke, The Rifleman, and I think maybe one other….
I have a kindle app on my tablet, but I don’t read on that hardly ever. I do prefer hard copies, but if I can get something for free online then I usually take advantage 😀 I’m like that

@jenwriter17 Okay, you’ve convinced me. I am now editing the newest parts of my western… 😮
Ah, what westerns have you watched? I’ve watched quite a few as well, but I doubt we’ve watched many of the same ones. I prefer the less well known to the classics. 😛
Great! First a couple questions: Do you have a kindle? Do you ever read stuff onl…[Read more]

@rochellaine Haha, yeah I love horses but never read a western (watched a lot though. does that count? 🙂 ) Yeah, I’d definitely read books you recommend! 😉

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #15 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@jenwriter17 Yes, I’ve always done that too. But it usually takes me a really long time to complete a book, so I was wondering if just writing it straight through would make it go faster so that I’d waste less time trying to make the first draft perfect.
By the way, you commented on my website that you’d never read westerns?! And you who cla…[Read more]

Jenna Terese replied to the topic Writers' Corner #15 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@rochellaine Wow, lots goin’ on 😉
If it helps, I personally like to edit a chapter after I write it, just so there’s not so much to do at the end. That’s just me though 🙂

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #15 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@jenwriter17 I’m trying to decide whether to edit my western as I go or just write, write, write until it’s finished and then go back and edit it. 😛
And I’m trying to get my books available for sale online…and trying to write a poem…and considering possible advertising endeavors. 😀
Right at this moment I am doing nothing but typing this…[Read more]

@rochellaine @dragon-snapper Hi! I’m here now, a little earlier than expected.
@rochellaine A million things to do huh? 😉 Yeah, I know what you mean 🙂
I’m working on chapter three of my WIP, trying not to get distracted (and eating brownie 😉 ) What are you working on right now?

@epicaddie2 What happens when you create an account on the website? 😀 Sorry for all the questions.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #15 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@jenwriter17 I probably will still be here since I have a million things to do. (All writing related.) 😀
…well, maybe not quite a million. But you get the picture – or do you?
Anyway, see you in half an hour!

@Jenwriter17 Yep!

@epicaddie2 Okay, but don’t you have to not write anything on your book until the first day of that month? I’ve already written the beginning of my latest WIP.

@dragon-snapper @rochellaine I think I’ll be on in about half an hour. Will you both still be here?

Snapper replied to the topic Writers' Corner #15 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@rochellaine Its basically about the art and pictures and music that inspired one of my novels. 😀 It’s a tag.
