Heh. You tagged me.
Welp, writing short stories is actually really difficult for me. The only thing harder than writing a short story for me is coming up with a character’s name. XD
But I’ll give you what advice I can from the few successful times I’ve written or read short stories.
So, if you do have a big story world, don’t…[Read more]

@livgiordano  Hello!  Sorry I’m late.  I’m homeschooled too.  What do you like learning about in school?  I used to do YWW.  Are you an animal person?  🙂

@livgiordano I second what some other people said that I don’t think you can fully do this without mentioning Christ. That being said, I don’t think you need to fully explore a theme or provide a full message within a short story. As long as you explore several true aspects of the theme & message and are pointing readers in the right direction, I…[Read more]

@livgiordano I get your concern, I think the same thing a lot too. Actually on @mariposa ‘s blog (thetinytealtypewriter.com) she just did a post kinda about this that might help answer your questions.

@sam-kowal @livgiordano Okay, thank you!

Mariposa Aristeo replied to the topic Email List 101 in the forum Publishing & Platform 7 years, 4 months ago
@livgiordano I like the idea of exclusive artwork. I post about 4 pictures per month on my blog, but I could always reduce that to 2 a month and have the other 2 be for my subscribers. I’m planning on writing an ongoing series of short stories featuring the same characters which I might include in my email list also (probably with i…[Read more]

Btw, guys do you think 3 POVs is too many?

@livgiordano Welcome to KP! Ever since I’ve joined this place has been great for me. Happy to have you here! I’m homeschooled as well and my own WIP is a fantasy, as well.

I’m seriously considering creating an email list and I needed y’all’s sage advice. What are some ways to attract people to sign up? A free ebook is a good incentive, but right now I haven’t any books to offer. 😉 I was debating about having free short stories like Josiah, but I also thought about offering a free downloadable card (if that’s p…[Read more]

@livgiordano Thanks. 😊 I know what you mean about writing consuming your life—I used to have time for so many things…like baking, running people over (on the wii 😜), playing emoji blitz… *sigh* 😥 Now it’s either writing or art, or art or writing (or the forum, but that sort of counts as writing, doesn’t it?). 😉 But I love writing so much that…[Read more]

@livgiordano I know what you’re talking about in Revelations. I was thinking about that too, and I’ve seen it done in movies at least twice and maybe in a book too. Does that mean I should probably not do it?
@radically-surrendered Thank you! I’ll think about the chip thing, I think I’ve seen it done a few times already.
@sam-kowal I agree, I’ve…[Read more]

@livgiordano I like doing hair, but somehow my hair doesn’t seem to corporate (which is probably why I resorted to short hair 😅). I used to make jewelry, but I haven’t had much time for that lately. 😢  And I love making cards (as you’ve probably already guessed)!
Aw, thank you! 😊 It means a lot to mean that you looked at my blog and that made A…[Read more]

@livgiordano Hmm, I’m sorry, I can’t remember her name. It may have been Shannon
I would love to have hair that grew without having to nudge it along. My healthy hair journey started when I straightened my hair in the spring. After washing it, my ends were splitting really bad and I had a lot of breakage. It’s grown probably 3-4 inches since…[Read more]

@livgiordano This can be tough. It’s quite possible, though. The book of Esther in the Bible actually never mentions God by name, at all, in the entire book. But it’s still in the bible. So in way, its very similar to what you might be trying to do.
This thread might help you…[Read more]

@livgiordano Well, I may be wrong, but I don’t know if you can do it completely. You probably don’t have to mention God very much to make that type of message, <span style=”background-color: #ffd9de;”>but I think you’d have to just at least some. </span>
