Back again, yes. Asking for help….hesitantly I have come. But really, I never can decide whether I want to write from third person or first, so I need some dares in first person and others in third person to see if that’ll help…[Read more]

@jason Sounds like a fascinating story idea! I did something similar, where I had a whole group of characters with fantastic “gifts.” Most of the gifted people were “good guys,” but one of those who received a gift was a callous army commander who inflicted punishment, even death,…[Read more]

I can give you some suggestions.You by no means “have to” do any of these.
1) Take a cliche (like the classic “we’re going to be poisoned by this dude who just put something in our food” or “we’re enemies but now we’re falling in love” or “I’m a superhero so I’m just awesome, no questions asked”…[Read more]

You’ll want to be careful not to make them sound like Native American names (not that all Native Americans have names like that, just that that is what a lot of people associate with them), and I think combining them into one word would be a good way to do that. Shakespeare had some…[Read more]

Thank you.

I do like that. *writes down in notebook* I will, henceforth, keep that in mind.
*sighs* Naming is great, except when you spend an hour or so doing it. 😛
@his-instrument Yes! The list! 😉

Write about why mice are blind.
Write about how the princess climbed the tower to save the dragon.
Write a conversation about an ostrich race and put it in your WIP (that of course, you don’t have to do. It’d be pretty funny though 😛 )

You know, the type with the avatar always prancing through a field of flowers or something like that. I’m not sure what point they’re trying to make… ;P Anyways, like I said, I tossed around a few ideas one of which was INFJ.

Well, I’ll definitely let you know when it comes out. Did I say when? I meant if. Lol

Well you can always hope. 😛

My novel is fantasy, but my stories tend to be very character driven (as appose to plot driven)

*serious nod* That sounds very good. 🙂 I usually like character driven stories better than plot driven ones.

Your novel in progress sounds really neat, and the poetry on your blog is excellent. I noticed you have read ‘Hinds Feet on High Places’, that’s one of my favorites.

I like poetry. I do. All of it. Especially the long, three page stuff that’s entirely in Elvish and no one understands. 😀

So glad to have you. I was poking around on your blog, and whoa! Your poetry is GOOD! (And believe me when I say it, because I don’t even like poetry. 🙂 ) What are some of your interests, other than writing? Do you play any instruments?

Trust me when I say this: you will learn sooo much about writing here. I’ve been writing for three years, but I’ve learned so much more of the ‘dynamics’ from when I joined. It’s great!
