no I haven’t!!!

Oki, I’m going to explain this structure because it seems to work for a looot of stories! 🙃 It’s very broad/all-encompassing, except for some Eastern cultures and the like.

I did not invent all of this. I listened to Brandon Sanderson’s writing lectures and explained them in my own words. So just to clarify, I…[Read more]

Also I can’t disagree that trauma doesn’t automatically make characters deep. Nothing does. We have to work to make our characters, same as anything else. There’s not just a switch we can flip to automatically make a good character.

 

 

Unless you’re like me, then you can just borrow them from other people’s stories, but even that takes wor…[Read more]

@whalekeeper lol “the Keilah genre”

 

What exactly does that entail?

@keilah-h

I don’t like being super graphic/body horror about it, I just make sure my favorite characters come out of it with a tangible reminder of the incident.

Tangible reminder is a fun trope. I haven’t used it too often. I can’t remember the last time I gave a character a dramatic scar. It feels like something that belongs in the Keilah genre. :p

To be faaiir I do not even know who Alec and Everette are. Yet. I’m getting there. 🤣

@ellette-giselle @keilah-h

But it’s so sad when the favorite character dies!!! And I love crying over books!!

If they don’t die she at least needs to make life miserable for them for a few chapters.

But trauma doesn’t automatically make characters deeeeep… 😫 Actually side note, I’ve been thinking about this topic and we should make a thread for…[Read more]

And not all in the same book too. It’s better if the main characters all go through different things.

@ellette-giselle

Maybe all our writing has come to life and our characters are walking around in different places!! (sounds like a movie or something)

It could be kinda scary if some of my villains got loose. 😂

Lol that would be weird….but also kinda cool. Except for the scary villains haha, I have my share of those.

 

 

Now where are my t…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle You’re crazy girl! Lol

 

okay but I do agree with you, making the main character miserable is fun. Not so much killing them all the time in my book, but brutally scarring them is what I tend to do.

you lose an eye and YOU lose BOTH eyes and this one get his arm slashed off and this one gets her wings shredded

 

lol

Maybe she just has a very common face 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

@whalekeeper

That’s so insane… 👀

Lately my book has been feeling more real to me, but that’s just because I’ve been fleshing things out more. i didn’t think my characters were ACTUALLY being brought to life. 😳😂

@whalekeeper

If they don’t die she at least needs to make life miserable for them for a few chapters. You never know if you’re hero has what it takes until you throw him in the thick of it. I have high hopes for both, and I want to see them live up to…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

He and Alec are my favorite.

I hope one of them dies in the end.

Why am I not surprised loll

@esther-c

*Slips in* I’ve also met somebody who looks like one of your Hallie faceclaims. 😅 First moodboard, left, with the long red hair. It’s crazy how similar they look. I’ve had this thought since you started using the photo, but never thought to tell you for some reason.

@hybridlore

Does Everette have a board??? I want an Everette board!!!

He and Alec are my favorite.

I hope one of them dies in the end.

@ellette-giselle

I mean, if I bumped up the year the story takes place a decade or two, it would be even more realistic cuz then she’d be of marrying age!!! 😆

Oh no!! I have some characters from older WIPs that I would not like to meet 🫣😂

@esther-c

I TOLD YOU I MET HER IN REAL LIFE!!!!!

 

Maybe all our writing has come to life and our characters are walking around in different places!! (sounds like a movie or something)

@ellette-giselle

No……

You’re joking….
