@rochellaine @waterlily hi, could you guys help me brainstorm last names for a few? At first I was going to set my book in Japan, so I was using Japanese first and last names (but now it’s set in the USA). I think I wanna keep some of the first names, but I think I want to change the last. I’d like to come up with last names that have the same…[Read more]

@destiny Oo, let’s see here. *reaches into bag of ideas*
For the first guy, something short and choppy sounding seems right. Kanar? Relvan? Tallas?
For the second, Caidmon popped into my head. Ellisan or Reed also seem to fit, at least to me.
The other day, I was thinking about the name Evaleen, or Avaleen, so that’s the only girl name I can…[Read more]

@dekreel Whoops! Looks like I accidentally did make you disappear. Let’s see if I can undo the damage. *Shuts eyes* I believe in her. I believe in her. I believe she is real.

Thanks for answering! This is a fun topic. 😀

@dekreel *speaks sweetly and logically* It looks like a wolf tail would look if it were shaved. A lot of canines shave their tails for aesthetic appeal.
Anyway, I promised that if you behaved enough like a human I wouldn’t make you disappear. So you’re safe for the present. Just don’t do too much of that growling and scratching random wa…[Read more]

@destiny Oh, my goodness! I completely forgot about that wonderful book! “Kerplink, kerplank, kerplunk!” is so much fun! Soooo, that book title is crossed of my list. Thanks! 😀
As for your characters…
Character 1: I created the names Lurnaz and Landke Gabis, and because they have the hard “s” sound like Paradaisia I think they could wor…[Read more]

@dekreel I have never scratched walls in ecstasy, but I can understand a wolf feeling the need to do so.
(Because, my dear, you are technically a wolf.)

@warrenluther04 Usually when people want beta-readers here on KP they post a link to a google doc in the “Novel Critique” or “Short Story Critique” sections of the forum, then tag some people and ask them to look it over. Sometimes we ask for comments directly in the comments section of the google document (In that case you have to “allow…[Read more]

Here is a little tactic for writing a compelling, and non-cliche fantasy story: Diversify your world. By all means include dragons, elves, knights, old parchments and/or a mentor or two — because those are AWESOME. But imagine how much more awesome your world would be if you added a unique…[Read more]
