I’ve self-published a standalone short story, two short story collections, and a novel. I prefer self-publishing, personally, for the freedom it provides and for the opportunity to work with my own choice of collaborators (editors, artists, etc.), but I would like to try traditional publishing down the road as well for the sake of…[Read more]

Oh, having reread North! Or Be Eaten I can say I enjoyed it much more this time around and I’m not sure why I didn’t like it as well the first time? It features a culture I enjoyed, more character development for Tink and Artham (a couple of my favorites), and several other fun additions (to the characters, world, and conflict). It’s still not as…[Read more]

@joy-caroline I usually write from beginning to end of a book unless there’s a pressing scene I wanna write, though those scenes aren’t necessarily in chronological order. It just gives me a better sense of progression than jumping around, though ofc you’re free to do whatever you want.

@microphage6032 It’s about a guy who’s brother becomes a serial killer so he goes out to find him, but the only problem is everyone thinks he’s his brother. A retelling of the prodigal son, Cain and Abel, etc. It’s set on a different planet and there’s some things here and there but otherwise not too many sci-fi elements in it.

@ava-blue Yea, I have a cyberpunk AU for one, and school AUs for others, but I only really work on them when I’m super bored.

@microphage6032 Sounds a little like Cells at Work, heh. Right now I’m working on a sci-fi novel, though I wouldn’t necessarily call it full sci-fi or my main genre.

Sure, girl! I’d LOVE to help you out if I’m able! (Conversational scenes are some of my favorite so I’m very excited!!!!) Anyway, the email you know of mine works great for me (I’d rather not put it here where everyone can see it, but if you don’t remember it, then I can share my author email instead.)

THIS. IS. INGENIUS!! *bookmarks* Thanks so much for the tag! I’ll dump prompts later. 🙂

(sorry for my late response. I don’t check KP as much as I should. XD)

But YESSS!!!!! You should!!! I hope you enjoy them. A NIGHT DIVIDED WAS AMAZING!!!!!! *high fives* I think it’s a must-read for any historical fiction lover!!!

I use Amazon/KDP. It’s been really easy and straightforward to use; my only complaint is that I don’t like having to support Amazon’s values by working with them. XP

I like the character/integrity of Vervante (an independent print-on-demand service), but they will cost you an arm and a leg; that’s why I didn’t publish with them,…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

So I might not be getting the problem *exactly* correct, but if you’re having a hard time with the pacing of your story, I’m gonna recommend to try plotting it out. Plotting doesn’t have to be all that complicated at all! Basically, there are certain major points that need to happen in every story besides just beginning, middle, and…[Read more]

Another article that focuses on this topic that I love: https://storyembers.org/dear-christian-novelists-cleanness-is-not-next-to-godliness/

Ooh. . . I have thoughts on this. XD

(Content Warnings: Mentions of rape, sexual abuse, suicide, witchcraft)

I would actually challenge the idea that we have to write clean merely because we’re Christians. Take a look at some of the topics the Bible covers:

– Rape and sexual abuse

– Suicide

– Wars and entire peoples being wiped out

– Evil…[Read more]
