@otherworldlyhistorian I love your username! I also love history, my favourite period at the moment is Ancient Egypt and I’m sort of plotting a book set in Egypt (not sure when I write it though, it definitely won’t be any time soon).
Your WIP sounds similar to mine! Technology isn’t quite up to WW1 in my novel, it’s sort of hovering around…[Read more]

Hello, so nice to meet you!
1. I have a few favourite characters to write—one is Chessy, the main character of my dystopian YA novel. She’s spunky, funny and brave, pretty much complete opposite, so it’s fun to think about how she’d respond to different things and flesh out her personality. I also love writing Ilio, the main charact…[Read more]

@felicity Hey, lovely to meet you!
I’m currently learning Hawaiian (though I finished my course, so I’m not actively learning anymore, just practising every now and then), Australian Sign Language, Scottish Gaelic and Romanian (I also love Eastern European languages!). I’d love to learn Welsh next.

Hey! Lovely to meet you! I love Venus flytraps too, but I think my favourite carnivorous plants are pitcher plants, they’re so cool and come in such diverse colours and shapes!
Alright, your questions!
1. You can’t make me choose between my children! But I think my favourite is my Celtic fantasy.
2. This WIP is about a you…[Read more]

Huskies are so pretty! So are Aussie Shepherds 😍
That’s so cool you’re writing a dystopian novel too! I haven’t seen many YA dystopians written lately and there’s so much potential in that genre.
My novel is a trilogy set in a futuristic Australia, where it is so hot that people can no longer live on the surface of the earth. Wealthy…[Read more]

Hey! Lovely to meet you 😊
I’m learning quite a few languages! I’ve finished a course and I’m conversational in Hawaiian, I’m proficient in Australian Sign Language and I’m currently learning Scottish Gaelic and Romanian. In the future I’d love to learn Welsh and Māori. And no I haven’t done any of my own languages! I usually use real languages…[Read more]

Hello! I’m definitely not new here (a veteran, lol), but it’s been quite a while since I’ve been active. I’ve decided to drag my butt back here and get some accountability to finish off my current projects!
A little bit about me, I’m almost 23 (which I feel makes me basically ancient on here) and I live in Rural Australia. I’m a dog trainer and…[Read more]

Hello! It’s been a while hasn’t it! I couldn’t even remember my log in details!
I also haven’t written anything in ages and I’m desperate to get back into it. Hopefully I’ll be more active on here again.

@overcomer
Hello, Mallory!! I guess I should introduce myself. I’m Esther: a volleyball-playing, violin-squeaking, dog-obsessed, homeschooled, God-loving, amateur writer!!
As for the short answer to your question: Great!!
Now for the long answer:
It looks like you haven’t been active for a while. I’ll tell ya, lots of new people have joined since…[Read more]-
Hi, Esther! Thanks, I appreciate the welcome! 😊 I’m glad to hear the forum is so active these days. Volleyball is cool! What position do you play? I was homeschooled too. I have a variety of hobbies, but right now I’m into archery (total beginner), watercolor painting, and walking. And I like all kinds of animals, but maybe cats the most (because…[Read more]

I play setter! Though that may change since I may be joining a new team this year. Idk yet. 🤷🏻♀️
Ooooh! Archery sounds cool!! We went to this place for my brother’s birthday in where you shoot arrows (in a variety of archery games), but obviously they are foam on the end. I was terrible at it. 😂
Watercolor painting is really neat!! I’ve done it…[Read more]-
Only the nice ones. I agree with you there! How are you doing these days?

I’m doing pretty good!! School’s over, so that’s really nice. XD And summer break’s been fun. 😊 I’m going to be participating in some really fun things in June and July and I’m really excited. 😄 Plus I have a summer job, so that’s been fun. 😉
What about you?

I’m doing good! I’m working a lot between my jobs as a photographer’s assistant and a clerk at the library, and writing in between. I’m working on finishing a draft of my WIP within the next three months and getting my blog up. I’ve been writing some poetry and song lyrics too. I’m also trying to do and learn as many new things as possible because…[Read more]

Ooooh, that sounds like fun!! 😄
When you start up your blog you’ll have to let me know! 😊

SeekJustice replied to the topic Harry Potter? in the forum Book Discussions 2 years, 4 months ago
I wasn’t allowed to read them until I was in my mid teens, because my mum felt the last few books were too adult for me as a kid. I liked them, but honestly don’t feel any connection to them. I feel there are a lot of better series, personally I prefer Percy Jackson and Rick Riordan’s other works!
I’m a Ravenclaw 😀

Sounds like a fascinating story idea! I just don’t know that you can fit all that in one short story!

SeekJustice replied to the topic Merch much? in the forum Topic of the Week 2 years, 4 months ago
I’m a bit late to the party, but if I buy merch its always a hoodie, mug or notebook! Love the minimalist look, with maybe a sketch and a quote, or something like that.
I won’t be able to buy any merch, because shipping to over here is wildly expensive, so I’m sad about that. Good luck with it though!

SeekJustice replied to the topic Putting a Character where you live? XD in the forum Characters 2 years, 4 months ago
Only one! A dystopian novel I wrote is set in a futeristic version of the town where I live. I mean I really kind of destroyed my hometown and it was really quite fun.

Hello @gracie-j !!! It’s been a while! I actually don’t think I follow your blog so I’ll have to quickly remedy that!
what projects have you been up to lately?

SeekJustice started the topic Blogging Buddies Wanted in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 4 months ago
I’m looking for blogging buddies! I recently rebooted my blog after a couple of years of really spotty posting due to…you know *gestures vaguely at the world*
But sadly it seems like most of my original blogger friends have grown up and got real adult lives (unlike me) and don’t blog anymore. Who’s out here running a blog? I’d love to get in to…[Read more]

Jenna Terese replied to the topic So….does anyone else have any advice on how to jump my book sales? in the forum Questions and Support 2 years, 5 months ago
@wilder-w So exciting! Here are some of the most important things in my opinion for promoting your book: 1) a website, 2) a newsletter/email list, 3) social media.
Think of your website as your “home base.” This is where you want to direct more traffic to, because there people will learn more about your book/whatever you’re selling, how to buy it…[Read more]

Jenna Terese replied to the topic How to make a side character more interesting? in the forum Characters 2 years, 5 months ago
@joy-caroline Something I try to remember when I’m working on side characters is that they are the main character of their own story. Even if they don’t have a POV in the story, they will have their own values, goals, motives, etc. in the story. I love working on their backstory, because it’s usually then that I discover their internal conflict…[Read more]

Jenna Terese replied to the topic How do you draft/write the "first" document? in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 8 months ago
I used to totally pants my first drafts. Now I find it more helpful to make a plot outline and scene outlines before I get writing, but I still give myself the freedom to deviate from that outline if I feel like it. That’s just me though. 🙂
