Yes, I’d say this has escalated. XD
Alyona
Screeches and hisses filled Alyona’s ears, driving rest from her mind. She flew to her feet, heart pounding, looking for a broom – anything really.
Two animals were locked together in feirce combat. Around them hovered two children, faced stricken…[Read more]

Aww, Naja is adorable. And she even looks a little like Riker!
I’ll go ahead and respond.
Viktor
Morning was here. Viktor lay perfectly still, watching the sunlight soak the walls.
His back ached, but his head had escaped injury.
He’d woken once in the… Earlier morning, just as he was…[Read more]

Mikkel
Rat-tat-tat
Screams, loud garbled voices. Zeroing in on his target, safety off.
Another kick shatters the door. Three more steps.
His feet pound down the stairs, racing against time. Flames snatch at his legs, slowing him down.
Another door swings open sending a stream of…[Read more]

I concur! That sounds like a good plan to me.

R.M. Archer replied to the topic Self publish… HEEEELP in the forum Publishing & Platform 4 years ago
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]

Grimmy? Oh my, that’s… adorable. I can see how Lyn is with nicknames.
(Of course they stay snarky. Brothers are snarky.)

But I won’t be for long, because I actually have to get up tomorrow before nine. (Or eight for that matter. Yikes! 😉 )

Jaybird replied to the topic Character Castle! in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 1 month ago
I’m on.
And I love your response, by the way! Nyx is hilarious, and the rest were just, oh my heart.

Mikkel
This room wasn’t a very defensible position, but if the window was filled with sand bags- non-existent sand bags…
Hours upon hours of filling thousands of sandbags…
Mikkel lay down with his back to the door, his rifle beside him where he could keep his hand on it. With his…[Read more]

Of course, Naja probably didn’t like getting separated from her daddy, but I guess she likes Eva. Or doesn’t mind if Nyx is there to cuddle. XD I don’t know, I’ll let her author figure that out. 😉

Okay, so I’ll try to get things moving along.
Alyona
“Good night.” Alyona called after Viktor as he and the rest of the boy-men left the room the girls had moved to. It was right above the one with the window and Alyona couldn’t help but think that this was how a sheep must feel when her…[Read more]

You’re fine! =) It is an interesting tool though, but a hard one all the same.

Jaybird replied to the topic MAJOR WIP SPOILER FORUM!!!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 1 month ago
Good! (It was.)
Thank you, that makes me so happy. Although, not that I’m happy that you’re crying, which I wouldn’t be, but you know. 😉
That should mean it’s touching; that it moved my audience. XD
Ah, I love it!
*Sobs*
It’s so, so… Satisfying? Nit that she does, but that’s such a good way to build…[Read more]

ONLY DO IT IF IT WILL HELP THE STORY! If the book’s good as is I wouldn’t add one just to deepen it.
It may cause trauma you don’t need.
*Weeps*

Koshka replied to the topic MAJOR WIP SPOILER FORUM!!!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 1 month ago
I enjoyed that way too much. I mean really, why do I enjoy reading about character deaths? I despise tragic endings, and a book that makes me cry is probably not going to be high on my list of I just want tos.
But that…that was beautiful.
And now I plead for more!!!

Koshka replied to the topic MAJOR WIP SPOILER FORUM!!!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 1 month ago
Yeah, that’s really the only reason I’m still going through with it.
And the way it all works out is just so beautiful to this author.

That is a really weird sentence, but totally accurate. XD and obvious. It’s beautiful, even in it’s nastiness.
Alwin also knows he’s gonna die, and literally his only prayer is that 1, his work will continue and that those they’ve reached will not be destroyed, and 2, that if his wife and daughter survive, they will continue…[Read more]

Good idea!
Now is it why I’m killing him, or why the other characters kill him?
Why I’m killing him is that, well, it’s a little complicated.
When I first had the inspiration for him, it was as a serf that was killed for treason. This I always planned to kill him. However, after the story changed a bit and he became an MC, I…[Read more]
