Ah, maybe that’s where we differ. I don’t find it hard to write using I because my characters are often quite similar to me. I just fill in with imagination in the bits where they are different 😀

@catwing

Ah, romance subplots are so pesky! They turn up when you least expect them and suddenly, whoa, that guy’s a love interest.

Starting Fires? Oh, I wonder why it’s called that 😛

@rochellaine

It does sound very dramatic, doesn’t it? Cool, I can’t wait to see what you think of the rest 😀

@valtmy

😀 I guess I just got used to writing from only two point of views, but I really like first person so I just deal with it.

@catwing

I don’t know. Is your book in first person or third? I was just suggesting you could try telling it from a different point of view for the second book, whether that was in first or third. Does that make sense?

@catwing

You could always swap some of the povs for book two, couldn’t you? in my novel, I have two first-person points, and while my main, main character remains constant, the other pov changes between books. You could try something like that if you wanted.

Poor Alex *hugs her*

@valtmy

I do indeed have a blog. anordinarypen.wordpress.com/  

@catwing Three isn’t bad, I’ve read books with more. I don’t think I could do more than three, 😛 I’d confuse myself, let alone my reader! Ah, okay, before she goes pyromaniac.

I have a question though. Is Alex bad? or misunderstood? or what?

@catwing

Oh yes! me too! I just want to get to book three…I’ve already book two, but its still pretty rough.

Yep, you’ve told me about that one. it’s the one which had a lot of povs and you had to get rid of some and its the one with Alex in it, am I right?

@catwing

I have a love/hate relationship with the rewriting process, which is what I’ve been doing for the past few months. I’m almost finished now though, so that’s a relief. Which book are you rewriting?

@dekreel

You still around? I’m here now, working on a blog post.

@rochellaine @valtmy @catwing Either of you wish to join us?

@alia

Oh that’s so hard. I will definitely be praying for you and your friend’s family. Praise God that she was a beleiver and that she’s finally at rest.

@jenwriter17  With the pencils, yes. 🙂

@seekjustice  @rochellaine  @valtmy  @jenwriter17  @sarah-anson  @anyone

Oy! I’m writing! Care to join me?

@jenwriter17  That’s AWESOME!!

Could you do me a favor and darken the picture, if you can? So the color pops more? Thank you!

@alia, oh poor dear!

You are going through so many trials right now. Don’t ever forget how much Jesus loves you!

I’m so glad your friend was a child of God. Praying for you and her family.

Hey guys, a friend of mine passed away this morning. She was born with medical issues and has been in and out of hospitals her entire life. Praise God she was a believer and so no longer feel pain, but it is still very hard on her family. So please keep her family in your prayers, she was only 12.

@alia

Oh my friend…I’m sorry that I didn’t see this until now. I will definitely, definitely be praying for you.

For my whole life I’ve never felt like I fitted in with other teenagers. I remember talking to my mum about it once and telling her, “Its not that I want to be like them, because I don’t. I just want to feel included”.

And that’s…[Read more]

@rochellaine @valtmy

I have to go now. Bye!!

@rochellaine

I think its too early to really tell about Nes. He does sound like he might be important, or at least a recurring character, from the amount of information you put in about him, so I definitely think you could expand him. Or you could not, its up to you. I’d have to have read the whole novel to decide whether he’s necessary. And I…[Read more]

@rochellaine

No, me either. And my father has bad grammar, but I love him so I read his essays. 😛 I think I’m just holding back from contemporary because, as a general rule, there’s less opportunity for physical torture of characters. Still, I’d love to see if I can write a book without killing anyone.

Ah, see, my eldest brother, who’s fifteen,…[Read more]
