I LOVE geometry too!

@kathleenramm

for my WIP Spirals, the stakes are the choices between life and death.  Hope, the MC, lives alone in the wild and wants a “family” more than anything: parents, friends, anyone.  Every decision she makes decides if she’ll survive the next morning.  The people living in the post-apocalyptic world are basically insane so she never know…[Read more]

Oooo, I love Keziah already!!! I guess one thing about her that would make people (yours truly especially… 😛 ) LOVE her is to make her tug at your readers’ heartstrings and make her relatable. Make her a mirror in which, perhaps, from time to time, they see someone who is all too familiar. (The desire for revenge, brooding, and…[Read more]

Oooo, CONGRATS!!! How exciting! XD

I do not have a blog at the moment, but from a reader’s perspective, I know my favorite articles are ones about the writer’s (or other writers’)  book(s), whether that be memes, behind-the-scenes peeks, extra scenes, cover reveals, etc. I especially love fun stuff about the book (Covers, memes,…[Read more]

Ah, Danek… I could likely rant for hours about him, poor fellow. He’s a villain… of sorts. (It’s hard to explain without spoiling books 1 and 2.) But anyway, basically, he just wants someone to love him, but, unfortunately, it seems fairly impossible. His mother is dead; his father was emotionally crippled by her death and isn’t a…[Read more]

@elfwing

lol This is awesome! XD

@akbaer

Woohoo! I’m actually kinda excited myself! Though not for the geometry. 😛

@daisy-torres i love it!  wanna read it now…

@kathleenramm

I just finished Lord of the Rings last night. It was awesome!

@kathleenramm Good luck on your story! Yes, now I think I want to incorporate at least one delivery boy henchman into a future story. I love it when henchmen have distinct personalities and appearances. Makes the story much more fun.

@daisy-torres Oo, nice! Looks great!

@kathleenramm

yes, poor Colin. It also shows how critically important parents are; if you don’t teach your child to be confident and  a little independent, they literally cannot do things for themselves. And yes, he’s not a character I want to relate to but I can and it is encouraging to see his transformation!

as for my writing style… it was…[Read more]

@abigail-m Sorry this took so long. I’ll answer your questions now.

how likable are the characters?

Very likeable! I do like the three that you introduced here.

If you had to eliminate all but one character, what one would you keep and why?

I’d keep Anton because I’m a sucker for minor characters. But seriously, I wouldn’t eliminate any of…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I fully pantsed some works some months ago. It was terrifying. Like, usually I have no idea where things are going when I’m writing, but at least I have an outline as a roadmap. No, for this I had one sheet of paper covered with characters I wanted to be  in it, and then another page for me to jot down ideas as I wrote.

And…[Read more]

@daisy-torres ok all good totally understand!!! But yeah if you want to in the future just lemme know 🙂
@nova21 ok no problem and thank you for the suggestions!! 🙂
@godlyfantasy12 fantastic!! just email roseoakauthor at gmail dot com when you’re ready and we’ll go from there! 😀

@kathleenramm

never have, probably never will. not because i don’t like it, i just can’t XD  i wish i had some tips, but all i can give are just the things Gracie already said. XD

@elfwing

i’m so sorry, but i’m really busy with my job.  I wish I could, and your story sounds fun! i love fantasy.  wish you the best of luck.  you might be able to find more beta readers on Story Embers, or you can search for the “ultimate beta reader list” on Recent Topics.  I can’t remember the tags off hand.  good luck! <33
