@raevynstar Confidence is key. A good spoiled brat sees the world in black and white. Their confidence in themselves is unflinching and they don’t consider other ways of looking at things. Such firmness inspires respect, even in fools.

Don’t know if that fits your character, but it’s one thing that works really well.

Well, the version of a synopsis I know is a maximum of 10 page summary of a book that describes the plot, characters, message, world and the writer’s thoughts. Soooo… I assume these are slightly different things in Australia. That’s all.

That’s my definition of a synposis too…I mean, that’s a good reason for writer’s to hate…[Read more]

@daeus I agree about the last sentence/paragraph thing (and most of what the others said about rewording throughout). I don’t think the whole thing should be dumped, but particularly just the last sentence sounds sort of pushy and/or excluding or something along those lines. If you were to cut it, it might need replacing with something else, but I…[Read more]

@rolena-hatfield That’s great! It’s really cute. 😀

@raevynstar I must decline (way too much going on 😉 ), but I hope you get the help you need.

@raevynstar Cool. 🙂 I’m in Southern Ohio.

*scowls at technology in general* Sorry guys… if any of you have followed the link and been horribly confused, I tried to fix something backstage because one of my pages was acting up and I think I just made it worse. I’ll try to get it back up and organized as soon as possible.

@rolena-hatfield wellll… *glances around cautiously*
Okay, yes. Apparently my secret is out. I do have a blog. I’ve had it for a while; I just haven’t been able to be active on it yet. I went ahead and set it up for graphic design purposes, but I’m waiting to finish up the very lastest of my last extracurricular school projects before I start…[Read more]

@emily That sunset picture is pretty.

@rolena-hatfield I have a blog: http://www.thetinytealtypewriter.com Thanks for giving me the opportunity to share it. 😊

@shannon Ooh! Palm trees! Where does this story take place? 🙂

@raevynstar Oh…yeah….that would make a Labrador a problem. 😛

@daeus *dances* Yay! Destruction to telling!

@daeus
Well, big thoughts is mainly that you should take out the last paragraph, because although you’re trying to appeal with struggles like that, people might not want to think of themselves as weak or cowardly, if you know what I mean. Maybe they know that subconsciously, but who wants to admit that they are a coward? I mean, a Christian might…[Read more]

@jess-penrose We call them both.

@josiahdeboer You don’t need to have read the book. Just tell me your gut feelings. Most people, after all, do read a synopsis before they read the book.

@everybody Thanks for the feedback! I suppose I’ll tweak some of the wording then get back to you.

@dragon-snapper Both, of course. 🙂

@xonos-darkgrate There are some plot twists, yes, but the story doesn’t stand on its unusual premise. It stands much more on its psychological depth. And, certainly! Go ahead and reword it.

@emily Anything…[Read more]

@jess-penrose XD Yeah, that’s my thoughts. 😀 You might have noticed I have very strong opinions on these things. 😛

@Dragon-Snapper *scowls* We are not taking over the kingdom.

@xonos-darkgrate as someone who has read and reread this story, I can assure you it’s anything but simple. In many ways it’s a lot like most classical literature— the premise it’s built on is very basic, almost simple, and yet when you read the story it’s nothing you ever would have guessed.

@rolena-hatfield I love your blog! Your Attic looks so nice!

@kate-flournoy He forgot to tag me too. Can we take over the kingdom now? How bout now? Now?
@daeus Well…do you want my big thoughts or little thoughts?
