Awww, that does indeed sound lovely. ❤️ Where did he go, if I might ask?

XD I love it.

@elishavet-pidyon

Hehe, feel you on that one. 😋 No worries!

XD My writing style usually leans more towards fewer words than too many (unlike when I’m talking in a conversation, when I will r a m b l e for all eternity), so this duology is going to…[Read more]

OoOoOoOOo THIS IS SO EXCITING!!!! I am EXTREMELY stoked for the Reflections released. I just bought my copy of The House That Didn’t End (I know, I know… took me long enough, lol) a couple of weeks ago and CAN NOT wait to dive into it!!!!! I would sign up for an ARC copy but I sadly don’t meet the platform requirements of over 300…[Read more]

@scoutfinch180 Interpolation is when your mind fills in the gaps, for example, you read a brief description of a character but a few pages later you already have their face in your mind. It’s pretty cool!

@kathleenramm Hmmm most recently probably comes from my English professor. Probably: “If there’s an upper word count limit then it means that this assignment can be done very well and with quality in this word count or under.” I guess overall, length isn’t everything.

Oh, and there was talk about interpolation and sensory description and…[Read more]

XD One of my favorite parts when I lived in Europe was getting to see all those traces of the medieval age – castles, fortresses, palaces. . . it was awesome.

Indeed he did.

XD Sounds lovely.

If I may venture to ask, what does your signature mean?

Also, if you just want to skip  to the second chapter to read what i wrote, you can. You don’t need to read the first chapter to understand the second chapter.

@r-m-archer

Thanks for helping me understand a bit better!

Also, sorry if I sounded a bit “un-gracious” there, but I guess what I meant wasn’t anything against the author, but the story. (I’m also a terrible writer, and it would indeed be bad news for me if the notion of improvement didn’t exist). So to rephrase: If the characters, world, an…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

Hah, those novels can be so stubborn in that regard sometimes. XP Best of luck with this one!

Series, no; novels, yes. I’m planning on writing a duology this year, which will be my first time writing anything that really builds on itself. I’m quite excited for it. 😁

XD Yeah, that’s always a pitfall that can be too easy to…[Read more]

@joy-caroline

Ooh, sounds awesome! 😍 This idea has a lot of potential. A few thoughts about your story in particular and fantasy in general, if I may. . .

#1: As I read through the descriptions of the countries, the line between light and dark felt a liiiiiitle too sharp. There are definitely times when that can work, and I get that you’re…[Read more]

@elfwing

Whoa, lots of awesome responses – one thing I’ll add is that it can be nice to focus on more than just one sense. If you usually describe the way the tears burn in the back of your character’s eyes, then mention the way the tears glint in the moonlight. If your habit is to describe how hoarse your character’s voice is, then show their…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

Yep! It’s very exciting! And that sounds awesome – have you written any series before?

Aw, thank you. The different reasons. . . hm. Evren has so much of me in her – the dreams, the love of stories, the things she’s drawn to. . . it’s been really interesting to explore that part of my personality through her. And L (who refuses…[Read more]

(Aww, thank you! ♥️)

Ah, but of course. *settles down and pulls out pen* Fire away.

I do indeed have a WIP – scheduled to be finished (first draft, anyhow) by the end of January. My favorite character is likely either Evren or L, for very different reasons. 😛

I write character-driven speculative fiction, and I love the grandeur of possibility…[Read more]

Mm, not really – when I was younger I did use a pen name for the most part on the internet just for safety reasons, but once I turned thirteen I started using my real name more.

Part of me is drawn to the idea merely because a pen name sounds fun (XD), but the rest of me just doesn’t want the hassle. Trying to constantly keep those two parts of…[Read more]
