@princessfoo Greetings and salutations! It is quite an honor to meet one of the elusive INFJs… To be honest, I never knew how many existed in the KP world. I’m glad you have finally introduced yourself to us!

@Dragon-Snapper *looks at crazy people and pretends she never does this herself, ever* Welp, I’m late. But the one thing I have to add is pretty boring anyway.
Practice.
Don’t just practice, observe. Begin picking style apart and figuring out what makes it tick. Read books whose style you like, then dissect it and find out why. Become a style…[Read more]

@rolena-hatfield Unfortunately not. It’s a horse that was across the street from a place we stayed at during our trip to Europe last month. I was just standing by the fence and it walked over and let me touch it. Glad you like it! It’s one of my favorite pictures.

@aratrea I would second the suggestion of @dragon-snapper, but alas *sigh* I suppose such ‘forum software’ cannot be subject to the whims and desires of mere mortals, oft-changing as they are. No matter. I will endeavor to endure *salutes, but with a tear trailing down one cheek* Thank you for your help.

@dragon-snapper @daeus

Thank y’all for answering! I also thought @aratrea would be able to help.

@salome01w4g I noticed! Maybe we’re on to something!

Maybe it has to do with your mood? Because I know in my case, my writing style can change if my mood is different from the last time that I sat down to write.

I agree with @daeus. It is important to make sure that your character’s voice has personality and that the personality stays consistent throughout the narrative.

In general, I prefer how 1st person narratives sound in a story, and I’m very excited that you’ve decided to jump out of your comfort zone and try something new!

@Daughteroftheking ooh, that’s wacky, but I like it! Great points already so far… I’ll just add that it might not be such a bad thing for the reader to think Rori’s a little off her rocker. As @Catwing said, it gives a curiosity factor.
But if your concern is believe-ability and the reader taking your story as a story seriously, I’m afraid…[Read more]

@Joy oooh… what I like about that is it has a ton of thematic potential. I’m not quite sure about the revisionism, from a historical standpoint, and if it was me I would probably create a fantasy or scifi world and then do the story with obvious parallels to the Civil War, but there are a lot of writers that can pull off things I’d be scared to…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 sure! I’m doing some other stuff so my attention might be a little scattered, but why not. This’ll be my only chance for a while. Which doc?

@Dragon-Watcher hey! I like the Piano Guys too. Their two favorites of mine are Winter Wind and Arwen’s Vigil, though I also really love Holding On. What about you?

@Dragon-Watcher heyyyy! Another dragon! Or… *gasp* Are you a dragon hunter??? Do you watch them to hunt them??? *hides behind wings and blinks at you with frightened reptilian eyes* Please. I’m harmless.

*coughs* Hello. Is it safe to assume you write fantasy? So do I. I think the majority of KeePers do, so you’re in good company. 😉 What are…[Read more]
