Snapper started the topic Novellas in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 9 years, 4 months ago
Recently, I’ve had a bit of trouble getting back into the swing of writing, but then again, writing is hard. 😛
Anyway, I had a great idea today, however, the story would probably be pretty short, and I was just wondering if there was anything I should know about writing novellas? How long did it take you to write one? How many chapters? How many…[Read more] -

Oh my goodness, Kate. You’ve given me soooo much to think about and it makes me very, very happy.
Ugh, you’re right. I rely on dialogue and inner expressions way to much. It’s something that I’m trying to fix, and this is the perfect time to start. Use better body language. Got it. I’m not sure why that’s so difficult for me to write…probably…[Read more]

Hello all! This weekend I will be performing in a production put on by my church. I’m rather nervous; the play is about some pretty dark stuff, and I’m not sure how our audiences react.
On top of that, a multitude of accidents and tragedies have plagued members of the cast. Tensions are high. The devil is trying to distract us from the…[Read more] -

@Aratrea @Kate-Flournoy @Daeus Thank you, guys. ☺️ Being able to share that means so much to me.

@kate-flournoy I eagerly await. Do you think I should buy a truckload of popcorn to keep me occupied?

Thanks, everybody. 🙂
@kate-flournoy Well, currently it’s 66,578, but I expect it to get up to 70,000 or more by the time it’s done. I’m pretty much your opposite. 😛
@aratrea @winter-rose @jenali @audry-grace The basic premise is that these two teens, a brother and sister, accidentally find themselves taken back in time through this time…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I’m not sure if this works…I’ve never used Google Docs before…
Um, does it automatically save?

@kate-flournoy @ethryndal @daeus @dragon-snapper @jess @winter-rose @aysia-serene I have the first write-up of the second chapter of this done, if anyone wants to take a look?

Elizabeth replied to the topic Novel Excerpt (Feedback Welcome) in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 4 months ago
Well, at least one of us thinks I know what I’m doing. @kate-flournoy
Okay. So…I guess…I need to come up with how I want Kara’s character to progress, and then outline it from there?

Elizabeth replied to the topic Novel Excerpt (Feedback Welcome) in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 4 months ago
Yeah. I definitely wasn’t planning on dropping that little detail right off the bat. @kate-flournoy
@ethryndal YES! Kate is my hero.
Kate…I can’t tell if that was supposed to be a compliment or if you’re trying to tell me something… *winks* In all seriousness…really? Because I feel like when I try to do this by myself, my thoughts get…[Read more]

Can I just pop in here for one teensy moment to say—isn’t Kate awesome? Kate is awesome. I’m done now. *disappears in a cloud of glitter*

Hello, my dear! I’ve missed you. I feel like I’ve been wayyyy to busy lately. @kate-flournoy
That might even mean her having her own agenda— to get Blake out of the prison so he stops threatening the security they had before he came with his awful stories, to name one example. That would be a good way for her to have an active role in the story i…[Read more]

Elizabeth replied to the topic Novel Excerpt (Feedback Welcome) in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 4 months ago
@kate-flournoy Scratch what I said above. I think I want to talk about character arcs–especially pertaining to Kara and Blake–instead.
I haven’t decided which arc will work best for Kara, but I think Blake needs a flat arc. I mean, he starts out the story with a pretty firm stance on what he believes, and he starts on the right side of…[Read more]

Okay @kate-flournoy Can we take a closer look at what needs to happen to Kara’s arc between the Inciting Incident and the First Plot Point, and between the First Plot Point and the Midpoint?
