@scoutfinch180 Nah, it’s not Christian. It’s a magazine that publishes a single short story every three weeks or so. To be honest I just looked up places to submit short stories and went down the list for the criteria.

@issawriter7 Sure I’ll tell you! I considered One Teen Story, but they aren’t open right now, and I don’t really write about the…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

Oooh, if you get to be published in One Story, totally let us know!!!! That’d be really cool!! I submitted to One Teen Story for their past contest but didn’t win!! :,(

@godlyfantasy12

aahh, I had school sadly and missed this. I haven’t gotten to write for the past week and it’s been super depressing. I’m REALLY hoping to get back into my WIP tomorrow. *crossing fingers* Have you gotten to any writing yet?

@nova21

Okay, so, some others might have already said this (I kind of didn’t read through all of the answers) so my apologies if I’m just repeating the same stuff. But as Joy Caroline said a big thing to watch out for is info dump. Don’t just tell the reader everything that’s has happened. Backstory can come later if/when needed. Only show what…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 Edward Tulane! I loved that book as a kid! It always made me cry but it was so beautiful…

@nova21 Don’t know if I have written a good chapter in my life but I do know that I like first chapters that do some explaining! Or at least show a bit of what the mc is like. Maybe like a scene, then intro? Not sure. I’m excited to see what everyone else says!

I think subgenres are most useful as tools rather than labels. A huge list like that might be helpful for opening up possibilities you hadn’t considered before (like gaslamp fantasy), for example. Or you could try to identify subgenres that your book falls into once it’s finished and use that information for marketing purposes. If you’re careful…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 I’m prepping some things…finishing homework…trying to catch up on my missed writing over the weekend…

@godlyfantasy12
I downloaded Quoll Writer as well as LibreOffice but for now am usually using WPS Office since it’s most similar to Word…I backup my things in Google Drive, though with Quoll it’s kinda hard to do so…

@golden-knight Hey there! Welcome to the Kingdom!

Ooh, the Scribble Society looks really intriguing! I’ll give you guys a follow. 🙂

A few questions to get to know you…

What genres do you write? What is your WIP about? Do you have any other hobbies outside of writing?

@devastate-lasting

LOL!!! YESSS!!!! Do that! XD

@scoutfinch180 I’m thinking One Story looks the most promising, since they are very open to new authors! Plus they just opened up submissions again!

@issawriter7 @nova21 Maybe I’ll see if I can minor in film or something XD

@gracie-j Ahh this makes me want to go and write! I’ll work hard, I promise!

@imwritehere1920 Ooh, needle felting! I think I’ve seen that before! Never tried it, though. I like playing piano, making music, and sometimes I do embroidery.

Feel free to join us in any of the other ongoing discussion threads like our WIP chat!

@larchness I remember looking at this before. It was very fun.

1. Mine is definitely series fantasy. Other genres that my other things might fall into would be low fantasy, urban fantasy, eastern fantasy…

2. I just write what feels familiar, so no, usually. Sometimes, though, I might say, “I really want write an eastern or wuxia fantasy right…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

That’s sad, ’cause it should TOTALLY go into film!! It’d be EPIC!!!!!!!!!!

@abigail-m

WHOOOO!!!!! That’s an AWESOME idea!!! It won’t be annoying at all!!!!! GOOOO FOR IT!

@godlyfantasy12

Oooooh, this is AWESOME! I can’t wait to see all the writing resources everyone else uses!!! I sadly don’t have anything and can actually really use this!

@nova21 Aw, do you really think so? Haha, I wish I was going into film sometimes. But right now I’m on the path of “Most probably not.”
