@rochellaine I made some changes that hopefully fixed the head-hopping problem. Could you take a look and tell me what you think?

…Oh, I see why you didn’t tag me. It’s because I said it wasn’t the most important thing to me, and so the second question doesn’t really apply. 😀

@ashlyvye I actually like the lighter side of The Flash – reason for why I don’t like the third season. 😀 But I’ve heard of at least two evil speedsters doing the hand-vibration-murder thing. What I like about The Flash is the swagger of the hero, the closeness of the team, and the jokes and “right is might” message.
I like a lot of the old…[Read more]

@daeus I would very much like to reach thousands of readers with my books. But if I don’t, then it’s not the end of the world and I will be happy with those I did reach.

@dekreel To answer your question about why I blog, I guess I do it for a number of reasons:
1. To grow my platform. I’m planning on publishing independently, so having a solid platform is really important.
2. To connect with other writers and future readers. I’ve made sooo many good friends through blogging! Even though it’s an online friendship,…[Read more] -

@rochellaine No, I appreciated your answer.

@jenwriter17 I just finished reading Alex and Brett Harris’s book, but I’m not reading at the moment…
@warrenluther04 😀 the Inheritance cycle is awesome! For awhile, it was my favorite fantasy series. Eragon itself I like because of the epic quest feel and the intricate magic system

@salome01w4g Ohhh, you read The Boy Colonel?!! It’s wonderful! Do you really like Nobody better than Edmund? I don’t know which one I like better, except you get to know Nobody better since he’s the protagonist.
I re-read the Viking Quest series all the time. I feel so sorry for Mikkel when Dev tells him to stay away from Bree. 🙁 Beca…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 By “sold out” I don’t mean that you’re crazy about it, but you’re at least determined.

Sam Kowal replied to the topic Informal Survey in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 8 months ago
@daeus To answer your first question… yes, or at least to impact those who come across my stories.
And to answer your second: Also yes, that’s my goal…

Sam Kowal replied to the topic How many characters is too many? in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 8 months ago
@ariella-newheart Looks like you’ve already gotten quite bit of advice, but I would say that probably, 30 characters is too many.
That’s not to say it can’t be done- if the story is an expansive epic, it certainly can, but 30 is a lot for readers to try to keep track of.
It also depends on how much time these characters get- if they’re mostly…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 @princessfoo @skredder @mnvalentine @jenwriter17 @dragon-snapper @kaya-young @kate-flournoy @daughteroftheking
Okay, let me put this a different way. Would you say you want to reach thousands of readers with your books or are you sold out on doing so?

NC Stokes replied to the topic Informal Survey in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 8 months ago
@daeus Tricky question. I don’t plan to write for a living, if that’s what you mean. But, I do plan to publish something, when I’m older.
If I may ask this of the king, why do you have an army of turtles?

Okay, second question: do you plan to become an established author?

Skredder replied to the topic Hiya KeePers!! in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 8 months ago
@ashlyvye That sounds kinda similar to what I do. I have the beginning, the ending, and a few key scenes in the middle planned out…in my head (I should probably write them down). And I just let it go from there. A few times I have been inspired to write a particular scene out of sequence and I just input it into the story at a later date.

@deaus *raises hand* *jumps up and down a little* That’s why I want to be published! With the depressing amount of “fluff” books in the YA section at my library, I think more books with a real positive messages would be great. Really, teens are less “edgy” and “angst-y,” and more hungry for positive messages in their lives. I don’t think I would…[Read more]

@ashlyvye My dad read the LOTR series out loud to my siblings and me when we were younger and then I read The Fellowship of the Ring on my own. They. Are. Amazing. Definitely worth it.
And usually I’d say not to judge a book by its movie (because sometimes the movie is bad and the book rocks) but in this case the movies do the books just…[Read more]
