Ooof, I have the same difficulty. Or rather, a very, very similar one. I have been working on two WIPs for almost a year. No, scratch that: it’s been over a year. Anyway, these two book ideas both started from ideas for characters, with vague impressions of their plots. Now after months of quiet world building, scene crafting, and…[Read more]

@madelyn

Ah yes, right on cue for me today, wanting to write a whole novel with nothing but an idea for the villain. I can feel the general vibe of the thing. I heard a song lyric today that I want to incorporate into the plot. I know nothing else.

I think generally I’ll feel for how long the work will be, like a short story, novella, or novel,…[Read more]

@madelyn

Aww girl! No actual fire! I’m disappointed… 😜😆

Sorry, I won’t be much help in this as I seem to be having the exact same problem! But I’m excited to hear people’s feedback.

@elanor At the moment I am writing a novel–I’m not sure what genre it would be classed as…. Anchovies belong on pizza sometimes, not all the time XD Oooh yes epic plots are good!!! I like Dickens’s very involved,  twisting-and-turning plots!!! And I love poetry! Who are your favourite poets? Have you published any on KP?

@madelyn probably…[Read more]

@madelyn

Yeah, I actually just read North! Or Be Eaten a few weeks ago, so I think it’s pretty fresh in my mind. Ooh, those are great questions! That’s a great idea for him to actually be afraid of children inwardly… maybe that’s because of something that happened in his past too.

Sure, I’d be glad to keep you posted! I may even post the link…[Read more]

Hey, you guys. I’m trying to write a Wingfeather Saga fan fiction and I need your help with ideas.

So, if I remember correctly, the Overseer never had a specified backstory within the Wingfeather series. Like, we knew he was a bad guy… but how did he get that way? He wasn’t like the Fangs, he was a human. Something had to happen to make him act…[Read more]

@madelyn @lydia-s I think those two shows were made by the same person, actually. I used to watch that sort of thing all the time.

@madelyn

I’m doing The Writer’s Conservatory! (It’s a three-year college alternative program that teaches students how to write well and on a deadline, how to publish independently and traditionally, and helps you start a small business) They count the program as a credit in English and a credit in business. 🙂

You’d think with how smart technol…[Read more]

@madelyn

Exactly! I’m hoping to be able to work my writing into this next school year. It would be a whole lot easier to stay in touch with my stories if I was required to and earned high school credits off of it. XD

Hahaha, I feel you!!! Apple maps is the same way, unfortunately. I guess Madagascar isn’t the worst place to end up, though.…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel

Woah. I thought I had written a lot of sibling relationships, but I can honestly say you’ve beaten me.

And yeah, two friends so close they could be brothers pretty much counts as brothers in my eyes.

Since you have written many brother relationships, have you written any sister relationships in your stories? And if you…[Read more]

@kathleenramm thx for the ideas!!

@madelyn ooh yes!!! That wording does fit much better for him!! Thanks so much!!

@madelyn

You and me both, girl!!! I haven’t sat down to write for… oh, a few months now… 😬 Most of my writing happens during spare moments on my phone. If I’m writing on my computer, it’s usually for school. 🙁 Hopefully, that will change here soon. 🙂

So I’m not the only one who’s gotten lost! I’ve ended up in Madagascar several times…[Read more]

@r-m-archer

A lot of those are on my tbr list. Now that I see you also recommend then I am even more looking forward to reading them!

@madelyn

That’s really interesting! I never thought there was a ‘first’ best selling book, but now thinking about it, of course there had to be one lol.

That’s really cool! Makes me even more interested in…[Read more]

@madelyn @faith-q @elishavet-pidyon these are so great thank you!! I’m going to do the first rewrite pitch maybe tomorrow and post it here to do this again (hopefully y’all don’t mind me doing this a couple times. Y’all don’t have to share ur questions and stuff 😂 they may not change)

also some questions I will answer myself and not thru the…[Read more]

@r-m-archer

Yeah, Classic lit. feels so much more grounded. It also feels a bit more comfy and homey to read. I do really like fast paced books, but slow paced books like classics are so relaxing.

Do you have any favorite classics?

@devastate-lasting
I haven’t dared venture back before the 1600’s ever since I read a bunch a books around that…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

Classics. I love them. In fact, most of the more modern fiction that I read is in the same vein and are often called classics. (for example, The Green Ember. 😉 )

Also, I think that having been raised on them, I am not bothered by slower paced books. (Although, if the author jumps down bunny trails that have almost no connection to…[Read more]
