Tristan S. replied to the topic Hello there! in the forum Start HERE 3 years, 3 months ago
My favorite part of the writing process has to be world-building, especially for fantasy settings. I like creating new worlds and tackling the unknown. It’s so much fun!
How about you? What’s your favorite part?
Very nice to meet you!
My favorite mythical creature has to be a sea serpent (like the leviathan in…[Read more]

Hi Lily! I say I like knitting, but I can only knit a square 🙂 My favorite authors are J.R.R. Tolkein, Jane Austen, and a newer one, Katherine Applegate. (Her book Endling is my fav) And I am currently reading the Wingfeather Saga by Andrew Peterson! What are you reading?

Hey! I have actually read the first book when I was younger, but it has been a few years! And yes I LOVE pineapple on pizza! My friends all say it’s gross to have fruit on pizza, but I don’t listen 😀 My favorite mythical animal is probably a griffin, and my favorite book character is Knightley from Jane Austen’s Emma by FAR. 🙂

Faith Q. started the topic Maps (creative title, I know) in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 3 months ago
Okey-doke, guys, so I’m a pantser. I started out my novel with pretty much no idea of what was going to happen when, where or to whom, and now I’m at the point (eight chapters in, actually) that I really, really need to know what my world looks like. (Kudos to all those people that know this stuff starting out, by the way.) So… how do you guys…[Read more]

Bahahaha! I know, me toooooo! My sister was really annoyed about how much I was gushing about Dylan… he’s just so amazing! If I could bring any of my charries to life, it’d be him (and then I’d marry him!) XD XD XD

ella started the topic What are the 1st three things your MC says? in the forum Characters 3 years, 4 months ago
The title says it all, folks. I just thought it might be fun to compare what your character says to see if the dialogue truly matches their personality or not.
So I’ll share mine first!
MC is Dylan, who is stubborn, quiet, and strong-willed. A little self-protective. Lmk if his dialogue fits his personality.
1) “Better.” (*rolls eyes…

Hey guys! Before I tell you my problemo, I’ll fill you in on the story first. Here’s They Came At Night’s synopsis:
24 miles off the Island of Camino, a commercial airline goes down in the Pacific. Only one passenger survives.
Dylan, an orphan-turned-foster child, was living with his uncle when he got the chance of a lifetime: travel to the i… -

Elfwing started the topic non-typical critters for stories in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 4 months ago
So I was just thinking about critters in fantasy. You know, dragons, eagles, orcs, etc. I get bored of them sometimes. (not Smaug; Smaug’s sense of humor and sarcasm will never grow old XD)
I know it’s fun to make up animals but at the same time, I like my earth critters.
I thought it would be fun to brainstorm real animals that don’t usually…[Read more]

Thanks! I just wish it would’ve happened AFTER I turned 18… *moans* lol 😛
It’s been going well! Incredibly busy though. How about you?
HEH WHAT?!?! YOU’RE EIGHTEEN!?!?!? WHY ARE YOU SO OLD?!
*reads comment again*
Oh wait. Maybe I’m reading this wrong. XD *facepalm*
Whoops… Well, it made sense in my head, but that sentence definitely does not say what I meant it to… *facepalm* XD Gonna rephrase that…

(Since it seems I can’t edit that comment, I figure this is the next best option) That sentence made sense in my head but not so much in real life… Gonna rephrase it… *facepalm*
I wish I would’ve entered adulthood after turning 18… Unfortunately, it happened at 16. Getting a job was a jerk into reality. 😛
@lydia-s Oof, I know, adulthood comes just too fast.😜
My summer’s been great!! I’ve been swimming a good bit and really enjoying it!! 🙂
@mkfairygirl
Agreed!
Oh, awesome! Glad you’ve been having a good summer. 😀
