@rochellaine  Sorry, no idea…

@supermonkey42

Let’s see…

“Fixing, fixing…”

That one’s a little hard. Here’s an easier one:

“It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.”

@perfectfifths  @catwing  @anyone

@supermonkey42   I guess that was also back when you had the idea for the Compendium. XD

Well! Apparently so…

Yeah, that’s the problem with wanting to include lots of people…

@mnvalentine  You think so?? 😀

@gh24682468999  @ariel-ashira  Thank you!!! Aethasia is a land from The Aetherlight, which is like an online, steampunk, alle…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Yeah that’s good advice.. Ill have to remember to go easy on myself. 🙂 Thanks for taking the time to help me out!

@notawriter I personally think everyone is different. It usually takes me a long time to come up with a plot and character and everything too. But when I have some time, I’ll sit myself down and go over what needs more. I use the ‘what if’ question a lot, some answers may be ridiculous but others might end up being cool plot twists.

But I would…[Read more]

@seekjustice yeah, I’ve heard that about standardbreds.

Oh wow your ankle is only now healing properly?! *sighs and shakes head* the things we do for horses…..;)

@dekreel Well, not if you’ve only seen about three or four episodes at the most. 😀  And I told you a while ago that I’d seen the eleventh doctor!  It was back during our conversation on your female doctor fanfic document when we talked about Star Trek as well.

I know I’ve watched a couple episodes, but I only remember one.  If my brother rem…[Read more]

@notawriter Actually, for that particular story I had basically nothing figured out.  Really all I had were the characters, who my sister already knew because it was a sequel to another book which she had read, and I knew the setting.  So I said something like “It’s got to be set in the 1880s, and I can’t stand the 1880s!  Why would my char…[Read more]

@notawriter Yep. Especially since I get to melt @daeus ‘ throne when I’m done with it. *eats his frozen raspberries and ice cream too*
😛

@ariel-ashira Yeah, and now I feel inspired to try and figure stuff out! .. Hmm seems like i’m still running off inspiration.. *sigh*

@dragon-snapper You mean the wisest dragon doesn’t get her own throne?? (I suppose sitting on Daeus’ throne would be more fun.)

@rochellaine Hmm. Sometimes me and my sisters talk about our stories but I usually have a difficult time articulating the stuff about mine. Though it could just be that I don’t have as much figured out as I thought I did.
That’s interesting how simply not wanting to do it makes it so much harder to figure out.. I wonder if that could have…[Read more]

@notawriter 🙂 *sits regally on @daeus ‘ throne and looks very wise*

@rochellaine That’s awesome! 😀 I love my sounding-boards.

@mnvalentine What’s interesting is: @dekreel said she wasn’t good at humor. It appears she didn’t know her true potential. 😀

This was way back when the idea for a KPA was first hatched.

@notawriter I agree with @skredder and @dragon-snapper about sounding boards. 🙂  Once I was brainstorming for a part of a book that I really didn’t want to write, but had to you know, because that was part of the story, but since I didn’t want to write it I couldn’t think of anything to write.  So I sat down with one of my sisters and told her t…[Read more]

@mnvalentine Ooh I didn’t even think about making a map.. That sounds hard though!
Hmm Maybe my plot elements would become clearer if my characters motivations were more defined.

@dragon-snapper  Whoa thankyou! I never knew you were such a wise dragon. *ponders your words*
Ill know who to ask if I run into any more problems! At this point I think I know what I need to do.. So I wont really have any more questions until I try. (and probably fail if we’re all being honest.) 😉

@ariel-ashira Oh no, don’t worry. You haven’t a…[Read more]

@notawriter Well, I begin by doing it in my head, then I start to write down those ideas all at once. Usually, it’s a big jumble of scenes, and I organize them later.
Oh goodness, all the time. I made the mistake a year ago by writing a trilogy without planning the whole thing out first. So a few months ago, I had two finished books, and…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Hmm.. So its almost like what Skredder said, only you kind of do it in your head? Interesting!
Do you ever get to a point where you’ve asked a question and you can’t figure out the answer though? Or what if you have two different answers that you have to choose between?

@kaymart I like the questions you brought up in this piece. About Ruth’s character. What might be in the shed, and what it was doing in there in the first place?
And what would happen to David? 😀
Definitely keep it up!

@notawriter Usually, I brainstorm just by building off that idea. Asking questions in my mind. Adding characters to a concept. Actually, most of it is imagining it as a movie, and what kind of plot twists build off of it. 😛

@skredder @seekjustice @daughteroftheking (Ill be praying for your other foot!)
Thanks so much!
I don’t know why i’m always so nervous to post. You guys are so sweet. 🙂
