@reaganramm I would be interested either way! There’s plenty of tips I could glean from a show dedicated to different types of creators, even though I’m not very creative apart from writing. But a show dedicated just to writing would also be immensely helpful!

@rochellaine

Yeah, that’s probably an idea. I really want to finish the trilogy this year so I’m rereading the first two so I can get a good idea. The original plot was a Scarlet Pimpernel retelling but the Scarlet Pimpernel is very different to the other two so the third book was coming off more as a standalone story and it just wasn’t working.…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I also don’t really know that, but ending with the execution of a major character probably isn’t it 😀

Are you/were you planning to have a Pakistani wedding like your brother did?

@rochellaine

I think I was??? Maybe. I can’t remember now. I do like it the way it is though, I just don’t have any cohesive plot for the third book and this one doesn’t end in a duology ending sort of way.

That sounds so much fun! When are you planning on getting married? Are you able to have a big wedding or it only going to be small?

@rochellaine

I’m just rereading my SFI sequel. I opened it randomly the other day and have been reading through it since. It’s better than I remembered 😛

Ooh that sounds so fun! I used to do that sort of thing a lot, unfortunately none of my youngest brothers are very into plays. I hope it works out well! Is it a musical?

@rochellaine

Yes! My dog is distracting me but I’m still at my computer 😀

@abigail-m

I went the whole of NaNo without drinking coffee as well! I didn’t drink any caffeine at all, which I was quite proud of. And I haven’t actually had any (excepting a long road trip i had to make) since then either.

Aw lovely! I have two horses and a naughty shetland welsh cross 😀  What sort of horse do you have? and do you ride?

@larchness

I would definitely study the “Dark Ages”. All around the world they were so interesting in different ways, but I couldn’t really narrow it down more than that. I just find that time period so fascinating.

Ah yes, seafaring adventures are so much fun! The novel I’m currently plotting is set in the Golden Age of Piracy (the historical…[Read more]

Hello all! Anyone around? I’m just rereading an older novel of mine trying to work out how to fix it when i really should be working on my KP articles…

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @gracie-j @devastate-lasting @valtmy

I thought I’d get a discussion going here! I’m currently reading Frankenstein (an audio version narrated by Dan Stevens, 100% worth it if you like your audiobooks read by British men with nice voices). I’m about half way through and I am really enjoying it! So has anyone else read Frankenstein? If so, what did you think of it? Were there any th…[Read more]

@jenwriter17

I’m just stalking (Because I’m supposed to be packing) but I love your collages!

@joy-caroline

Hello there! I’m Chelsea R.H., or SeekJustice and its lovely to see you here! Who are some of your favourite authors and do you have any pets?

@abigail-m

Hey there! How are you doing? I’m Chelsea R.H. aka SeekJustice 😀 Congratulations on getting your first draft done and good luck with your second draft!

And now for my obligatory questions…are you more of a tea or a coffee person? Or neither? and do you have any pets?

@larchness

Hello there! I’m Chelsea R.H., otherwise known as SeekJustice!

I really enjoy history and would have loved the chance to study it (weirdly enough, I went the dog training/disbility care route). What are your favourite periods/things to study?

Ooh, I have so many fantasy recommendations! What are your preferences (subgenres, YA,…[Read more]

I’m off now! I’ll chat to you all later. 😀

@catwing @alia @godlyfantasy12

@catwing

Not too bad at all. I’m recovering after the holidays 😛 How have you been?

@catwing,

I’ll have to check it out

@seekjustice,

that’s a good idea

@godlyfantasy12,

I would say that there are different times when I definitely feel that way, and sometimes taking a short break to refocus is good. (with my procrastination it turns into months, but I would suggest maybe just taking a week away with no writing before…[Read more]

@alia

Yeah, that’s hard. I find when I’m in a stitch like that that going back to characters can be really helpful. For me, that’s where a lot of ideas for how to integrate subplots into the main plot comes from exploring various facets of the main and side characters.

@catwing

Hellloooo!! It has been so long my friend!

@catwing

pretty good, busy but mostly good.

ooh, what’s the channel?

I get the whole writing thing, I had planned on publishing my book this summer, but I have barely started the second draft (I wanted the 3rd draft done by the end of this year)
