That’s really interesting! I don’t think I’ve ever experienced that.

I’m not sure if you want any tips on ways to maybe help you be more critical of writing, but here’s some thoughts I had that might help.

Sometimes when I’m reading a book and want to use it as a way to improve my own writing, I keep a notebook with me as I read. On…[Read more]

@keilah-h That truly is amazing! I love it when Christian writers are able to write from their own experiences to help others with theirs. I wish you the best with your book!! Maybe one of these days I’ll get it for my future kids, if I ever have any XD

@calidris I don’t think so. Was it bad or good?

@elfwing I mean, I used to read bad books too lol. And then I started writing, and I didn’t read anything but manga and classics, so when I finally went around to reading other stuff again, I was more like, “what is this thing I’m reading.” I guess writing has trained me to look for mistakes more, and also one of my sister’s hobbies is roasting…[Read more]

@elfwing Hahaha XD I’m sure you will!! Just stick with it! I made the mistake of publishing too soon and not building up an awaiting audience first ::::)

I do! I published Era of Shadows on amazon a couple years ago. It’s a medieval Fantasy retelling of Alice in Wonderland, based on the Red Queen’s perspective.

Recently (July) I published The…[Read more]

@keilah-h Awww I love that idea!! I love things that remember kids with special needs. That sounds wonderful!

@elfwing Oh, for me, I’m the opposite. Problems always stick out to me, but usually I stay quiet about them because I feel like they aren’t something that the writer can change easily (like style, the overall plot, etc.) If it’s typos I will though.

@godlyfantasy12 Awww, that’s such a sweet story tho!! If you ever put it back up, let me know!!!

@madelyn I enjoy it when I’m not crying, heh. Which I think can be said about anything.

@kathleenramm Yess they are extremely, extremely good.

@libby Ah, recently I’ve started to appreciate sci-fi more as well! Kinda want to start writing a sci-fi story in the future…any tips?

Nooo it ate my message T_T Time to retype that monster message…. XD

@madelyn You know, if you ever want to learn more about the mbti types, there’s a youtuber called Frank James and he does a lot of funny skits, personality tests, and more that help better teach you about your/the types. I can send you a link to his channel if you’re…[Read more]

Yesss I’m really glad to be in this community…[Read more]

@jodi-maile

Percy Jackson was actually the book that got me into reading!

And I’m with you on the History subject. For me I think it really depends on the history book and whether or not they focus more on the people or on dates and basic events. When I started reading history that focused more on the actual people and their lives I started…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

I’ll definitely will be checking those out!

@ribbonash

That’s so interesting! 1st person POV has always been my favorite and still is, haha. What books changed your mind on first person POV?

@anatra23

Yeah, I had the exact same experience with books I had to read that were part of a school curriculum. Still to this day they…[Read more]

@maryg3 Microsoft forms works too if you would like.

@kathleenramm Ouchh, that would hurt. I’m glad it helped you though!

One of the harshest critiques I ever received was when someone asked me why all of my main characters act the same. I was pretty new at actually creating characters at the time and was just starting to realize that characters need–What’s the word I’m looking for? Oh…[Read more]

@scripter-of-kingdoms Very true XD

@maryg3 Just search up “google forms” and you should be able to do that. And no, I don’t have any other ideas as of now, sorry.

@nanisnook sure thing! Glad I could help!
