Fantasy sounds right. If it’s more along a realistic trail like Rangers apprentice, I suppose it might be midieval fantasy.(prolly my fave genre)
How you’ve described is pretty much how I construct my book too! Usually when I’m thinking of scenes, I kind of let them roll around in my head for a bit then slap them on some paper.…[Read more]

@lydia-s so sorry for the late reply! And thank you so much for your advice, I’ll definitely keep it in mind next time I’m faced with something like this. I ended up trying to rewrite it a couple times and on about the third try, I got something I really liked! So I’ve finished that short story now 😁

Oooooo what a fun idea!!!!!!! (Also, I just LOVE LOVE LOVE your quotes!!!!!!!!)
Alrighty, here’s mine. It’s for my character Keenum in my YA fantasy novel, Heir to His Crown.
If you’re waiting for my blessing, then all I have to say is pray your death comes soon. Then the world would be very blessed indeed.
I’d never ask for mercy fro…

Keilah H. replied to the topic Characteristic Lines in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 4 months ago
@Lydia-s Great idea! And I love your character’s lines. I’ll pick Rinzler (a character I made with my brother):
“How fun is that. Bring it on!”
“Hey! You guys there?”
“Nah, they’re occupied.”
Rinzler (also known as Terabyte) is a stubborn, headstrong, wild character. He’s 17, and enjoys racing motorcycles he built himself, as well as listening…[Read more]

*rubs hands together evilly* This could be fun…
Also I love those lines XD very funny and very intriguing.
“Ladies, Ladies, please. We all know it’s past your bedtime, and we’re all getting temperamental. We need a leader…”
“Leave me out of this. Your problem”
“Kiara. That’s my name. They’d take you and kill me, and you wante…

@lydia-s thanks! Well, you should at least keep it in mind 😉 trust me, I know how it feels having a ton of stories at once lol (arcs in my case – all of my stories were set in the same world)

@lydia-s chickadees are so cute! That’s great that you were able to find inspiration in their calls! Steampunk is really cool. I had a setting that was kind of like a post-apocolyptic steam punk thing, but I don’t really use it any more. Once you finish your current story, you should totally write the steampunk trilogy!

@scripter-of-kingdoms aww thanks! I’m very pleased with how he turned out – I think I captured his personality really well. That really means a lot to me!
@keilah-h thanks! Misu is a guy, but I like to draw him with softer features because he’s a very gentle and kind character (depending on who you ask – he’s an angel in disguise, so he de…[Read more]

Hello, everyone! I wanted to ask for some advice about a problem I have with a short story. Right now, I mostly do short stories, but this has been a big problem for me with novels as well.
So, here’s the problem: I’ll usually start a story with a clear idea of the direction it’s taking, the feeling I want the story to have. I’ll follow that…[Read more]

@keilah-h thank you!
@lydia-s honestly same lol. Thank you! I love him too. Redemption arcs are so good, plus I just couldn’t bear to have him suffer and then just get killed off. I just shamelessly stole his bad guy name from a bird lol. Shrikes are a really cool type of predatory songbird that hunt mice and other birds. Idk how sensi…[Read more]
