Lydia S. replied to the topic What is your least favorite type of hero? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years ago
Hmm… Least favorite main character type? I guess I really have problems with the perfect ones. Especially the ones who are in their teens or young adult years and unbelievably wise, even up to the point of counseling their older siblings and friends on problems which they have no experience in (e.g. romantic relationships).

ella replied to the topic Second Draft Blues in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years ago
Yes, I totally feel this!! Everything people already said was great, but the thing I’d consider the most is to try writing something new. That doesn’t mean you’re giving up on your book, you just need a break from your particular WIP. And, hey, you might even get some ideas for your 2nd draft from another project… that’s ha…[Read more]

ella replied to the topic What is your least favorite type of hero? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years ago
Ooo, awesome question! Well, my answer would be that I hate the passive heroes. The ones that let everyone tell them what to do, or the ones that just “go with the flow.” There’s a time and a place for that, but definitely not in the MC, imo! 😄
Oh, and melodramatic/overly-emotional heroes are the worst!! Like when they just sit…[Read more]

Last lines:
Am I strong? I can learn to be; only the strong are hopeful.
Am I ready? It’s now or never, and I can’t go back.
Am I hope? Michael believes I am. He sees it in me. I think I’m learning to believe him.We’ll have to do it again sometime, Daisy. 😉

I’m several days late (*facepalm*), but hi Spark! Welcome to the forum! I’m Lydia. 🙂
Here are a couple questions, if you like questions. 😉
1. Who are your top three authors?
2. If you had to change your name, what would you change it to?
3. Ice cream or frozen yogurt? (Random question… But oh well!)

@joelle-stone @jodi-maile @nova21
(I figured, since we’re working on this together, I’d tag you all. If you’d rather I just tag one of you, don’t hesitate to let me know😉)
Perhaps we should start with the type of blurb you want to do? I know some authors summarize the beginning of the story and the main conflict, others will just use a quote…[Read more]

Yes, it is! That is an excerpt from one of my favorite scenes in Shadows (or Falling, as it might soon be called). 😀

Thank you so much, Lexi! (I have to agree; dragons are awesome! XD)
Oh boy… I don’t even know where to begin! The main theme of it is falling. It sounds odd, but by the end, that’s pretty much what has happened. The main character (who doesn’t appear in the excerpt… *facepalm*), Duxus Aledrick, falls due to his pride, a…[Read more]

Woah, your excerpt is really good! What kind of setting is your world in? It’s super interesting. 😀
