@jane-maree Yep. Confuses me too. 😛 And my age, that is confidential dragon information. If I told you, I’d have to melt you. 😉

@jane-maree Completely random. I have no idea how that started.
@bethanysinkyroses I’ll be nice. 🙂

@that_writer_girl_99 I think it’s hilarious that you and @ethryndal call me a kid. 😀
@jane-maree Yeppernoodles.

@jane-maree *bites lip* Woops. Sorry. I forgot again.

@that_writer_Girl_99 You didn’t tag me??? 0.0 Okay, I’ll just melt your computer *melts computer*
I’m here.
@jane-maree

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I have been summoned. May I be of assistance?

@DelightinLife wow… *scratches head* Uhh… well, this is properly enormous. 😛
A few possibilities of what could happen to make it exciting… what if he runs into someone he knew in his former life and has to face old sins or maybe just decisions that clash with how he’s living now? How major is this ENTP guy in the story? How important will…[Read more]

@DelightinLife my pleasure! What can I do to help?

*streaks into the room and crashes against the far wall, leaving claw marks over the paper as she slides to the ground with a screech*
MY PSYCHOLOGY SENSES ARE TINGLING. I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED.

XD

Sorry. Couldn’t resist a dramatic entrance. 😉

Hmmm… Well, if you can push him a little closer to the ENTP side of things, you have the perfect…[Read more]

@jess Aw, man. At least you found the dog.
@that_writer_girl_99 Are you still on? If you are, then you must be editing A LOT. 😛

@that_writer_girl_99 So we were watching a friend’s dog for the first time, and the dog ran away. Everyone was running around the woods and neighborhood to find her for the last 45 minutes… Good news, the dog was found, and it’s back here. But that took away my writing time. 🙁

I’m going to be writing for about 45 minutes to an hour. @daughteroftheking @graciegirl @dragon-snapper @ethryndal @anyone

@daughteroftheking
My family does that all the time. “What you do to yourself?”
“I got in a fight with a bear.”

@dragon-snapper *grimaces* Ew. spiders.
You know you are a writer when you make up stories to explain any minor scratches and bruises… “This cut? Oh, I got it in a sword duel. And I got this hangnail fighting an ogre.”

@that_writer_girl_99

Well, I can say that after talking to a few people, having a blog is really important to building your platform. So I definitely recommend you do the thing.

Now, as for what to write, I’m not really sure. You have to make it your own and write about what you want to write about most, because otherwise, you could lose your…[Read more]

@graciegirl Oh, ok. *sad puppy eyes* I wouldn’t wish a long session of editing on anyone. 😛

@that_writer_girl_99

That’s great! I would offer two pieces of advice.

1. Write about stuff you’re passionate about. This will keep you writing and attract like minded people.
2. Develop a distinctive voice. Half of blogging is offering important content, but the whole other fifty percent is your voice. This is why I follow @ethryndal‘s blog,…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 a blog is a good idea for anyone who wants to get published. It’s not the only way to do it, but it’s a very good way and well-tested.

I don’t have much experience to draw from yet (mine still isn’t active) but I would say your schedule sounds very plausible and to go for it.

The one piece of advice I have to offer is…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 *falls out of the sky unexpectedly* Are you still here?

@delightinlife
I think someone has already said this, but the best way I can think of to start a plot is to create some conflict. Make something go wrong and figure out how the characters can fix the problem. Also, a great way to start is to brainstorm. Think about your characters, your story. It helps. 🙂 Anyway, that’s my brilliant advice. 😉
