*What @kate-flournoy and @jane-maree said*
I think the big thing is, mobs and riots go crazy, so they don’t need a logical explanation for the things they do, but they do need at least a small trigger for their actions. So, say there are two factions of screaming rioters, and one of them throws a stone. That’s going to cause…[Read more]

@jane-maree @kate-flournoy @Shannon that’s true. we humans like to play follow the leader, don’t we? if someone starts it, we’ll follow along, even if we don’t necessarily know what’s going on or agree with it.
@Emily they’re angry about the way they’re being treated. they’re rebelling against the elite, but also encouraging the elite to join…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Yes! I do
huge books have a kind of magnetism on me, so once you said 500k words my mind was like “READ NOW!”
Yeah, tag me! That’ll be really cool.

@princessfoo careful, @kate-flournoy sounds a bit shady to me 😀

I bet XD . Eleven sounds like a big number for a normal passerby, but actually having to write it…Wow. Yeah. trying to inject each sentence of that with awesomeness.
Yes!:D Brandon is really inspiring. Whenever I read his books I’m like… I NEED TO DO THIS
Oh Wow. Again. 500,000? That is a BIG piece of work. Now I want to read it:D

It is super entertaining to watch you guys talk on here XD
I think, if @emily hadn’t told me you were sisters, I would be pretty close to guessing it
Also, @kate-flournoy, really awesome blog. Stan is getting really impressed at all the works you are working on. I mean, a series of ELEVEN? That’s, like, more ambitious than the…[Read more]

Thank You!
Yeah, Stan really appreciates it. Because he’s not very well liked by his own kind, seeing how small he is.

Mob mentality is a huge thing in situations like that so it’s not hard at all really.
… You sound like you are speaking from experience. You too @kate-flournoy. Is this something we should be concerned about?

So, I need my main characters to start a riot in my book, like a big, on the street sort of thing. How on earth are they going to do that? I really have no idea. I’ve just had one of my characters make a passionate speech…and now I’m not really sure what to do.
How would you start a riot?
How are riots usually started?

PrincessFoo replied to the topic Writing Romance in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 5 months ago
@daeus Thanks. I can do that. So what would I have my characters do when I want my readers to gasp. Have them act surprised in another way? Or rolls with it? Or reveal that they secretly figured this out pages ago?
I actually think I have heard of “Daeus’s principle” before, in an Orson Scott Card book on writing. XD

Hi friends,
You may or may not know that show don’t tell is one of my favorite writing topics. The practical application of this is that I’m currently putting together an in-depth course to help people master the subject. Part 1 of this course is just about finished and ready for me to launch!
