Faith Q. started the topic Maps (creative title, I know) in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 4 months ago
Okey-doke, guys, so I’m a pantser. I started out my novel with pretty much no idea of what was going to happen when, where or to whom, and now I’m at the point (eight chapters in, actually) that I really, really need to know what my world looks like. (Kudos to all those people that know this stuff starting out, by the way.) So… how do you guys…[Read more]

Ahhh! I’m at chapter seventeen and I just can’t stop! This book is well-written, intriguing, and TOTALLY PUBLISHABLE!  Make it happen, Emily. This needs to be published.
I just can’t stop thinking about how amazing this is! I don’t know how many times I’ve laughed out loud… (and I seriously almost cried once!) And the chara…[Read more]

Girl, I just SOOO feel ya!!!! I literally just got out of a major writing slump that I’d been in for all of June. Like writing literally blegh for me too and everything!!!!
So I guess, every writer is going to be different. For some people pushing through is what helps them. This use to help me, but well, it didn’t help this last…[Read more]

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic What are the 1st three things your MC says? in the forum Characters 3 years, 4 months ago
Oooo this is SUCH a fun idea!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! And I LOVE Dylan’s dialogue. The first one was just kinda funny without the story’s context. XD It was awesome!!!!!
So my MC is a sixteen-year-old girl named Layla. I just started this new story, so I don’t know a lot about her yet, but from what I can tell she’s stubborn, competitive, and…[Read more]

Bahahaha! I know, me toooooo! My sister was really annoyed about how much I was gushing about Dylan… he’s just so amazing! If I could bring any of my charries to life, it’d be him (and then I’d marry him!) XD XD XD

Thank ya kindly! <3 Ooo, cool! I’d say Corvina might be a conflicted character, and Arabella might be a really sweet, friendly personality. Am I right? XD
Girl, I’d totally read this! Totally keep writing… GO GO GO! 😉
Thanks! I know, it’s kinda weird to see the dialogue out of context. But th…[Read more]

Hahaha! I already love Felicity! 😉
He totally sounds like you described him. If I had to go on an adventure now, I’d want him to be the leader! 😉
Can I hang out with Catherine for a day, please? Just a day? XD
Hahaha! Poor Horace. *cough* dumb teenagers *cough* 🙂

The title says it all, folks. I just thought it might be fun to compare what your character says to see if the dialogue truly matches their personality or not.
So I’ll share mine first!
MC is Dylan, who is stubborn, quiet, and strong-willed. A little self-protective. Lmk if his dialogue fits his personality.

This is ALL too relatable, Lexi! The way I usually (try) to overcome writer’s block/burnout is picking up a different project. I have *counts Scrivener docs* 25 WIPs from the last 2 yrs. Not that they’re perfect. (Or finished.)
This way really helps me to take a step back and pick a project that I’ve been developing pre…[Read more]

Heyyyy!!! Writing’s been going pretty good. I started a new novel and have been loving it probably more than anything I’ve ever written. Life’s been mostly crazy, but I’ve been hanging in there. Oooo Skyward Sword sounds fun!! What is it exactly?

I don’t really have any ideas, but it looks like other people do. 😛 So–as I am not feeling in a creative/helpful mood at the moment–I’ll just say that it does sound like a really interesting story. Keep it up! 🙂

@sparksaraabbott11 Aww thanks! Uuum I did one a while back (more writer-themed though) that says “Excuse me if I spill the ink of my mind onto the carpet of reality”, and there’s one in the bible that I LOVE that says “We live our days as a tale that is told”.
