aahh, I had school sadly and missed this. I haven’t gotten to write for the past week and it’s been super depressing. I’m REALLY hoping to get back into my WIP tomorrow. *crossing fingers* Have you gotten to any writing yet?

@nova21

Okay, so, some others might have already said this (I kind of didn’t read through all of the answers) so my apologies if I’m just repeating the same stuff. But as Joy Caroline said a big thing to watch out for is info dump. Don’t just tell the reader everything that’s has happened. Backstory can come later if/when needed. Only show what…[Read more]

@william-starkey

Oh yeah.  So true.  I have a feeling I don’t do that well enough…

Wow, yeah , this is great stuff!!!  Thank you SO much!!  I’ll definitely have to keep this in mind!!!

Thank you SO MUCH everyone!!!  SUPER helpful!!!!

@joy-caroline

That’s GREAT advice!!!!  I especially love what you said about if the reader needs to know it or not at that moment.  Thank you SO much!!

@devastate-lasting

@godlyfantasy12

I am!!!  Are you working on that story w/ Arabella and November?  (sry forgot the title 😬)   How far are you into it?

I have a question:  do you find it easier to work on one WIP or two or more?  like, when you get tired of one, you can switch to another one temporarily.  or do you make yourself stick with one?  i’ve been trying…[Read more]

@issawriter7

Agreed. 😉

@devastate-lasting

I’m serious!!!  It was very realistic in that going back in time isn’t always going to work out the way you want it to, because TIME IS A FICKLE THING!!!! 😋  I especially loved how you intertwined all the backstories so beautifully.  The last scene just made my mind go dead for a second, lol!!!  Gre…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

@abigail-m

WHOOOO!!!!! That’s an AWESOME idea!!! It won’t be annoying at all!!!!! GOOOO FOR IT!

@godlyfantasy12

@devastate-lasting

Whoa.  That was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  That was literally like reading a Christopher Nolan book!!!!  You go girl!!!  Are you planning on going into film?  😜  Linyang Nolan… jk. 😂
