ClaireC posted an update 8 years, 2 months ago
Current Status – boring my mother as I tell her the entire plot of my book, (over several days) complete with names, backstory, ghosts, lies, truths, Thing-your-character-wants, Thing-your-character-needs, plot twists, etc. The whole load. She’s very patient. I’m finding it very useful to verbalize all my ideas, making sure everything makes sense.…[Read more]

Mark Kamibaya started the topic Structure and Character Arcs in the forum Characters 8 years, 2 months ago
So I’ve always wanted to know the answer to this question: What is everyone’s favorite type of structure and character arc? I’m talking about the Bell Curve, the Save the Cat! beats, the Hero’s Journey, the multiple act structure, the Three Act Structure (there are endless variations on this one, but I’m talking about the classic one), and there…[Read more]

@jess– it’s kind of a cross between Beauty and the Beast, the Frog Prince, and my own story. It’s kind of complicated.

Julia R. replied to the topic Writers' Corner 2 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
Ha, I am so bad at tagging, @dragon-snapper, @jess. I can’t really figure out chapters yet, what with this being my very first novel.

@Julia-r Ah, you found it! Welcome to the writers’ corner, where writers from all over the world find a time when they write at the exact same time to avoid distraction. So, say I asked you to write for an hour, we would write for an hour then meet back here to touch base, see how many words we wrote and compare. It’s more of an accountability…[Read more]

Woah. *holds onto computer desk to keep from fainting* What is going on here? It looks awesome, but, like most people, I don’t have time to read all 54 pages of forum to find out. @dragon-snapper ? @bluejay ? @overcomer ? @clairec ? @daeus ? @jess ?

Here you go… 🙂 This is what I’ve been working on. @jess
Glinting eyes, watching eyes,
Waiting for a maiden.
Glinting eyes, watching eyes,
To come into its haven.Long white teeth, sharp white teeth,
Shining in the dark.
Long white teeth, sharp white teeth,
Scarier than a shark.A puff of smoke, a curl of smoke,
Floating through the air.

@anna-brie, sorry forgot the ‘@’ symbol in front of your name!
@clairec Thanks for the reminder. I’m sure I don’t thank Mommy enough for all that she does for us. I’ve begun to realize that she doesn’t have such a thing as free time; we 5 children take it all up. It’s hard for me to imagine making a sacrifice like that, every day, all my life like she has, and I really appreciate her. Three cheers for…[Read more]
@sarah-h. I call my parents Mummy and Daddy, but when I’m talking to other people, I generally say Mum and Dad.
@clairec It’s so true! My “mum” (I’m American, so I spell it “mom,” but I like the sound of “mum” more, for some reason… 😛 ) does so much for me, and I often take it for granted. 😉 Glad you’re able to sort out your plot and everything!
@gretald, Thanks! 🙂
