I am trying to fill in holes and missing information and skipped scenes (my first draft is literally just the main plot and that’s it, nothing else), but I can’t seem to figure out how to do so

I definitely understand. Second drafts are so hard. What in particular are you struggling with?

you won’t be disappointed 🙂
I am having the hardest time getting motivation for my second draft for Decisions

That’s really good to hear. I’m going to add them to my Goodreads right now 😀
Hopefully it will be intriguing. I pantsed the whole thing (which IÂ do not do) so its not in great shape at the moment but at least the first draft is done and I’ve got something to work with. The half-elf is awesome. Definitely one of my favourite characters…[Read more]

They are so well done. The author does so much research to make them historically and culturally accurate as well as biblically accurate.
Ooooooh, this has me intrigued. The half-elf is already my favorite character.
I love sibling duos! They are under utilized in stories

I’ll definitely look into her then! I enjoy books like that if they’re well written 😀
Thank you! The one I just finished is a dark(ish) fantasy thriller about two brothers, who may or may not hate each other, who have to uncover an ancient conspiracy with the help of an immortal half-elf. The one I’m working on plotting at the moment is a…[Read more]

I highly recommend her. My favorite one (Bread of Angels) is about Lydia, the maker of purple in the book of Acts that Paul mentions. I’m currently read Daughter of Rome, which is about Aquila and Pricilla. Its really good too. She mostly writes about women in the Bible, but sometimes she takes a story of the Bible and creates a…[Read more]

Ooh, I’ve heard of Tessa Afshar but I’ve never read any of her books. What are some of her plots about?
I’ve read some really good books lately, mostly non-fiction and adult historical fiction! My writing’s been pretty good too. I finished another novel a couple of days ago which was really good and I’ve got plans to start another one very soon.

I’ve been doing alright. Been reading a lot of books by Tessa Afshar, a biblical fiction writer, but been painfully neglecting my writing. How about you?

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner 01 in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 10 months ago
@alia not too bad at all. Very tired from all the crazy holidays, but doing very well. How about you? Read any good books or written anything lately?

Alia replied to the topic Writers' Corner 01 in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 10 months ago
How have you been doing?

Hey! Yes, I am for now! I may disappear sooner or later.

@seekjustice, you still around?

I’m glad we got to talk a little bit! Happy New Year

@rochellaine, Yes! we definitely need to do that. I’ll be at Liberty in Lynchburg studying nursing with a focus on missions (which is why I picked Liberty, because that had the missions built into one of their nursing programs)
How exciting! Being an aunt is my favorite thing right now, I love it so much. It’s nice that they’re so close to…[Read more]

Hey! I’ve been a little bit busy getting ready to head to Virginia in about 2 weeks for school, but overall well. How about you? How’s everything going for you?
They’ve been great! My oldest sister, her husband, and their baby are visiting until the 5th so my family has been greatly enjoying spending time with them. How about for you?

I am keen to write it! I think it will be a lot of fun.
Yes I am! Completely certified 😀 The new ones are Bull Arabs, which is an aussie breed which look like Great Danes but a little bit smaller. They’re from a pound in Queensland and just need someone to look after them and train them until they’re adopted.
I love Pyrenees and…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 As I’ve already explained all I’ve done in 2021 is be cuddled up in bed listening to an audiobook so it’s been pretty good.
I’m not sure about it being well-written at the moment, but thanks for the sentiment 😛 My next one is a historical novel set in an alternate world (fantasy, but without magic? Or anything…[Read more]

I’m procrastinating getting out of bed. I’m usually up very early to walk my dogs, but its a public holiday and it’s raining, so its eight thirty and I’m still not out of bed lol.
My novel is still underwraps, but its a fantasy thriller novel with two brothers who may or may not hate each other as the main characters who must…[Read more]
