*confetti and pats you the back and shakes your hand vigorously*
1. How do you write extended outlines? — Usually, I write a three point outline, beginning, middle and end, and off of that I’ll write it chapter by chapter. While I’m doing the three point outline, many ideas for scenes will pop into my head, so I just write them down on…[Read more] -

@dragon-snapper, Absolutely Awesome! 🙂 This is so funny! I love how you actually used our favorite Kingdom Pen Characters. Write more of these stories, please, with the same characters. And some more? Again, this is so fantastic! 🙂 😛 😉 🙂

No, I’m not finished my book, just my extended outline. I know, not an amazing achievement for most of you, probably, but for me, with not much writing background, and this being my first novel, it actually is a pretty big achievement. 🙂 I may be just a little bit excited. *hee hee!* *someone please pat me on the back*
So now I have a few…[Read more] -

@that_writer_girl_99 Heh, no, that wouldn’t end very well. 😛 I’m kinda scratching my head on how I gave that impression. I was just seconding what Gabrielle said:
They helped each other through their struggles. They helped each other grow. They actually had a relationship, if you know what I mean. Not just a you-look-pretty-we-work-well-together…

@Clairec I want to say The Princess Bride, but I’m not sure…

Here’s one that everyone knows.
*nasally voice* “Marriage…” Ready, set, guess! Okay, the answer will literally leap into your heads. 😉 -

@daeus. Yep, I’d have to say she’s my #1, too. 🙂 I thought it was really nice of her to say yes. And it does seem rather awesome, doesn’t it. 😉

Oh cool! I’ve been working on my poem for it, but I’ll be in the 11-14 age group.

@daeus, I’ve been in contact with Katie Weiland (https://www.helpingwritersbecomeauthors.com/) a few times about writing questions, so I wrote and told her about it. She has not only taken by put it on her twitter page. 🙂 Awesome job, by the way. Katie said it was very well put together.

@Winter-Rose YES. Why do writers not do it more often?

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Is the "love interest" necessary? in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 6 months ago
@Dragon-Snapper @GracieGirl @Winter-Rose Totally agreed.
They actually had a relationship, if you know what I mean. Not just a you-look-pretty-we-work-well-together thing. It meant something.
Gabrielle, exactly.

@ethryndal @emma-flournoy I think that if they had kissed at the end it would’ve messed up the scene.

Sometimes, simple is better. The hug at the end was WAY more powerful than any words or kisses.
AGREED. Gushing and kissing, sheesh. That hug was so incredibly sincere it was WAY better than any gushing or kissing would’ve been.
