Kate Flournoy

@kate-flournoy 8:00 sounds good. I’ll probably go till more like 8:45 though. It’s a tricky chapter to plot.

@kate-flournoy. I was just about to do some outlining. That’s not exactly writing, but it’s something.

@kate-flournoy *sprinkles luck dust all over your book*

@kate-flournoy

Thank you! It’s actually a shortened version of my first name, so yes and no?
It’s always nice to meet another fantasy geek. Probably more like LoTR/medieval stuff, although I’m trying to draw inspiration from other places besides Medieval Europe. It’s…harder than I thought it would be. What do you write?

@kate-flournoy 108 chapters left to go? Oh dear… 😉 And I thought correcting fifty some chapters took awhile.

I wish, @daeus . Fiction would be easier! No, I’m writing something informational for a website. I’ve never really done anything like this before, so I’m a bit intimidated by it. :/

Golly, all of y’alls’ projects sound way more fun than mine! @kate-flournoy , @rolena-hatfield

Augh! We were posting at the same time, @Daeus.

@kate-flournoy Noooooooooooooo!!!! The world’s gonna blow up!

@kate-flournoy And I thought rewriting my novella took a while. Wow!

If anyone else is interested I’m still writing. Probably for an another half hour. @kate-flournoy, @faithdk, @daeus (if you’re still interested.) @rolena-hatfield

@kate-flournoy, are you still writing? I will be til 10:45

@kate-flournoy, are you still writing? I will be writing til 10:45

@kate-flournoy, are you still writing? I can write til 10:45

Sure @kate-flournoy

The characteristics your character has come out when you describe his reactions. If a character says, “I wish you well” at a parting, that shows us very little about the character. If a character says the same thing in the same situation after they have been told that their grandpa just died, that means a whole lot more.…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Thank you so much for the feedback!!! 🙂 I really appreciate it! Ah, I see what you’re saying about telling vs. showing. I know the difference in my mind, but it’s hard to actually write showing-ly. 😉 I’ll have to go back and edit like crazy. 🙂

@kate-flournoy As of now the time period is kind of… nonexistent isn’t the word I’m looking for. Irrelevant, maybe? I would like to give the impression of it happening in that time period and at the same time have a few conveniences for the sake of the story. I’m pretty sure there’s a term for it… Fictional liberties, methinks. Anyway, I had…[Read more]

@rolena-hatfield paper always does that. In fact, I just lost some cash today and found that I had accidentally thrown it away in the trash can. We should switch to gold and computers.

@kate-flournoy I like that fancy seal.
Ok, I think you’ve got a point. It really is even more about reaction. I’m not talking about plot though. That is also 99%…[Read more]

That is very interesting, @kate-flournoy , and a good point as well. Romance should actually advance the plot and add to the story but it needn’t do so in a way that is over obvious.

There was a romance in a movie I saw once that failed to really advance the plot or add to the story. The movie needed to have either more romance or have none in…[Read more]

All right, thanks for writing with me, @kate-flournoy! I have to stop now. 🙁 Anyway, I got 1001 words written for a short story I just started to write.

@kate-flournoy, Okay! 🙂 I’m going until 9:45 now. XD

I’m going to go until 9:30. @kate-flournoy
