Thank you all so much!! I suppose the main thing that I want critiqued is the main character, Ember. That’s she’s likable enough, I suppose. Also, I haven’t written in 1st person before, and I just want to be sure that everything is clear in that person. Oh, and there’s a sword fight in chapter 3, and I haven’t…[Read more]

@nanisnook

Nice to meet you too!

@devastate-lasting

Favs… LOTR: Gandalf, Hunger Games: Johanna, and Star Wars: Darth Vader… or maybe R2?

@kathleenramm

The first time I remember writing a story was when I was… idk, 6? To be clear tho, my writing habits were extremely sporadic until I turned 13 a few years ago. I don’t know if I even could…[Read more]

@jodi-maile Yes, exactly.

Okay. I wonder what went wrong… but I think I got it.

You too!

@jodi-maile Thanks for the advice! That is a problem for sure since I would probably end the book without really fleshing out her new relationship with her siblings much. I don’t know if my readers would appreciate that much. 😛 It really depends on how long my book is at that point. I don’t know if I will write a sequel or not, but if I could f…[Read more]

Hi! My current top three favorite books are probably Moccasin Trail, Pride and Prejudice, and The Bronze Bow. I have read a lot of fantasy which probably is why I like it the most. It’s so much easier for me to write as well and I’m sure that watching the Chronicles of Narnia also probably helped. 😉 Nice to meet you too!

Thank y’all for the help!

@jodi-maile ooh the faulty eyewitness and stuff is great!! Ahhhh I’m feeling a little bit inspired lol!!

@jodi-maile

Hi Jody!

Wow! I’ve always wanted to go to a wolf sanctuary! I’ve only seen wolves at the zoo. They were Mexican Wolves, and their pen was way too small. I felt bad. Arctic Wolves are my favorite, one day I’m going to go to Alaska to see them in the wild. I hear they’re rare to see though. Wolves are the most beautiful…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

That’s really smart! Because some weeks are so much different than others, so there’s no point to being disappointed that you didn’t write a much as some other week, especially if there is just so much going on.

@jodi-maile

I know right! I love that you don’t have to be fully committed to the long process of writing a full…[Read more]

@jodi-maile @nova21 @joelle-stone

Okay, sounds great! 😀

(@joelle-stone I really hope you check out Fireflies in December!!! I desperately want to talk about it with someone. 😛 )

@lydia-s @jodi-maile @nova21

(Good idea, Bethel Lydia!)

Perhaps we should start with the type of blurb you want to do? I know some authors summarize the beginning of the story and the main conflict, others will just use a quote from the book (Jonathan Rogers did this with The Bark of the Bog Owl),

Ooh, Jonathan Rogers! Hm, I like that…[Read more]

@joelle-stone @jodi-maile @nova21

(I figured, since we’re working on this together, I’d tag you all. If you’d rather I just tag one of you, don’t hesitate to let me know😉)
