Kina Lamb replied to the topic The Legend of King Daeus in the forum Short Story Critiques 9 years, 2 months ago
Oh snapper! (that’s you, @dragon-snapper) this is really good! I enjoyed reading it. 😀 Please write more!!!! I loved that the Count of Monte Cristo was in Spanish, and that Daeus couldn’t read it, and that it was torture. So true. 😀 Except… Daeus probably would have been able to figure out how to read it in Spanish by reciting the Count of…[Read more]

Sci-Fi Tips Part 14
The Worst Worldbuilding Mistake Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Make (I titled this one. That means it’s important :P)
Earth is a wonderful planet to live on. The shifting seasons and geographical diversity make it a unique and beautiful gift to mankind. But if Earth is the only example of a planet supporting life, then…[Read more]

Sci-Fi Tips Part 13
The idea of combining the past and future is not new. Ever heard of steampunk or its lesser-known, but still super awesome, cousin dieselpunk? They are genres that combine both past and futuristic elements, and they’re super popular. The renown of such genres exists because an anachronistic setting raises the question, “…[Read more]

@Leumeister Argh, I very sorry, haven’t seen this till now. 😛 (My tag has Flournoy on the end. But no matter at all.)
I didn’t have to really formulate guesses…I’ve been MBTI typing people so long I can generally pinpoint a specific type without having to analyze it a ton. I had a general guess and then I went a little deeper to check my…[Read more]

*scrambles with a puff of dust* ALL RIGHT @That_Writer_Girl_99. Looks like I’m at your service for… at least some ticks of the clock. 😉 What would you have me do, fair lady?

@leumeister Yes, like Wall-E. But think about it a little harder. Is he just a bumbling robot? The writers of that film were a little on the nose to prove otherwise.

@winter-rose Excellent.
@daughteroftheking But we haven’t taken over the world yet…. Oh well. I guess you can’t do that on an empty stomach. 😀 -

Okay, so what I’m gonna tell you is what I’d personally advise people who don’t know plotting. It’s not anything professional just my personal opinion.
What @Kate-flournoy said was right. One of the best ways to learn plot is to read. But not just read.…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I just think it’s hilarious how you were like “Plotting! Oh, yeah. There’s that guy who can’t shut up about plot. Lemme tag ‘im.”
Anyways . . .
@BethanySinkyRoses The Weiland books will basically have you covered (The Structure one is better than the Outlining one). I’d also suggest getting these two books by James Scott Bell: Plo…[Read more]

Hello! @emma-flournoy The link to Prison is in a google doc somewhere on one of the forums I’ve created… *looks around* *cN’t find it* Give me a minute to finish lunch and I’ll give it to ya. Thanks for offering to help!
https://docs.google.com/document/d/16Fp5D7pKF1SwuVVegM6Ke2kz8PuxVSj0qQb8LpaL2UU/edit
Here ya go! If you haven’t already, read through Prison and then let me know if there’s anything that doesn’t make sense. Even if it’s a small detail, I want to know about it. Thanks so much, and no pressure to do it immediately! Do it whenever you have the time…[Read more]
Coolio. So, things even with stuff like sentence structure and stuff, and specific comments, or just the story stuff and an overview when I’m done?
Whoops! Sorry I took so long to reply to this. My phone logged me out of KP, and I was too lazy to look up my account login…
Anyway.
Yeah, I mean, if you see a grammatical error that really sticks out to you, as in, one so bad you can’t ignore it, definitely let me know. What I really want to scrutinize here is the character development. I…[Read more]
Quite all right. 😀
Okay…*clears throat oddly* Well, I’m kinda weird about critiquing anything. I can never decide, if it’s just a minor detail, whether it’s fine to let it go or whether I should make sure I tell you. And then I end up feeling kinda guilty if I don’t say every single thing that comes to mind… *cough* I know, I’m strange. Do…[Read more]
Do whatever you think necessary! You’re not going to hurt my feelings, Emma, not at all. Even if I come back and the document is criss-crossed with red marks, I won’t be offended. Every comment I get helps me better the story. @emma-flournoy
@That_Writer_Girl_99 Well, I wasn’t worried about offending you. I’ve learned that authors WANT the full opinion no matter what. 😛 And it doesn’t seem like you’d get offended over what I said. I just didn’t want to be giving you MORE than you wanted, even if it wasn’t offending. 😀 But. I shall begin. Sometime. Soon. *waves*
