Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Book Length in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 11 months ago
@clairec A lot of wordcount depends on genre. For a first time author, generally 60-90k is the way to go but some genres like fantasy/sci-fi are more like 90k-110k because of all the additional worldbuilding. My gut is that 80-100k would be fine for “historical fiction” since, like fantasy/sci-fi, there’s a fair bit of background information you…[Read more]

And here are a few more for my sci-fi story For Lor. I may or may not be ridiculously excited for this story. 😛
Here’s one for the protag Lor herself.

And this one…eh, I dunno if I like it all that much but it features a line of dialogue that is quickly revealing itself to be integral to the story so I kinda feel like I’m not giving you the…[Read more]

@salome01w4g Sure thing! There are many ways to do it but the method I use goes like this:
(Stealing this step-by-step from @shannon because she explains it so much better than I do. 😛 )
1. Upload it as your profile picture (don’t save it though)
2. Crop it as big as you can
3.
4. Copy the image address

“In my defense, you’re my favorite character, and it’s a proven fact that authors love torturing their faves. Don’t ask me why, but there it is.”
@Ethryndal I saw your post on your book, and now I feel guilty because that is exactly how I feel toward my favorite character. XD Yep. So true.
-
*high fives fellow torturer* What is it with that, anyway? It’s like… seeing blood on their faces makes us feel good about them. I dunno. I always liked it when my favorite character in a book or movie got beat up. *shrug*
WE NEVER CLAIMED TO BE NORMAL.
-
@Dragon-Snapper @Ethryndal Guys, THIS READER IS THE SAME.
” I always liked it when my favorite character in a book or movie got beat up. ”
*extreme nodding* We’re like psychopaths, but it makes us love them more. It does. *hugs specific characters in mind*
And then feel a million times happy when they get happy again.-
@Emma-Flournoy Why doesn’t this surprise me… XD
Well, be happy, because every good character I ever write is probably going to suffer mass amounts of torture. After all, there IS a reason writers are likened to villains… -
And don’t tell me Denholm is a tortured character…

Thou art SHREWD, milady. XD XD XD
I plead the Fifth. Thou shalt discover for thyself.
Since nothing I just said is telling in the least.

Your subtlety will never cease to amaze me. XD
-
@emma-flournoy @ethryndal Yes–when I was younger and before I started writing, my friends always told me that I had to be the badguy. And why?
Because I was so good at it.
*headdesk*
*confetti*
I can’t decide.
And who in KeePer is Denholm?
Wait. *glances around*
Is it from Kate’s book? -
@Ethryndal I know. 😂
@Dragon-Snapper BRAVO! How ever did you guess?
And I can see how you’d make a good bad guy… 😀

@daughteroftheking Yes! Yes! We’s quite excited precious. I love the plot, but putting words to it…sometimes I wish we had holonovels like in Star Trek. 😛
But what do you call a sequel that’s in the trilogy? 😛

@daughteroftheking My sequel. I’m kind of just getting words on paper though…I never do well in the first ten chapters of my novels. Weird.
