New Dante sketches

@rae

Hello! Mostly everyone is going shopping for fancy clothes for the dance coming up, except for Caly and my characters, who are going on a hunt for a somewhat evil pixie.

Dante

“Fascinating. All I can do is write fast. That enchanted box you use to summon fire is also very interesting. Now, hold on a second and I’ll write all this down.”

“It’s not enchanted, it’s…” Dante muttered, but trailed off as he watched Calligrapho’s hand blur across a page of his book.

“Here’s what I’ve got so far: ‘ Dante – H…[Read more]

@grcr

It is hard to say much without knowing much of your book, but I do agree with what Sara said as far as openings…

Ok! If you do wanna read the chapter, I posted it like two posts above this one.

I guess it depends on the reader, but personally, I like books that paint some of the picture in the first (and even second) chapter… even if it seem…

@savannah_grace2009

Ugh, sorry you’re going through that! That’s hard!

Yeah, thanks. XD My NaNo WIP feels so much easier because it’s so new, lol.

Could you maybe post some segments of it so I can see more of what you mean?

I posted the first chapter in the post above this one.

All I can say is that maybe you’re focusing a little too much on all…

@rae

What’s the first paragraph of your book?

So, the first paragraph doesn’t have much info in it since it’s only a few lines, but I’ll share the original first chapter so you can see what I’m talking about. (Hopefully. XD) In a day or two, I’m hoping to have an alternate first chapter written, so I may share that just to see if y’all think…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Oof, those are hard questions. For the first one, I get what you mean. I think for the first chapter, an introduction is fine. Personally, I would try to focus on the relationship between Ami and Ev, and his family conflict, because I think that will hook the reader.

Yes, definitely. XDXD

Ok, yeah. I think I already have a few ideas…[Read more]

I’d love some help if you guys have any tips or advice to contribute 👆😊

I don’t want to make a whole other topic for this, so I’m posting my question(s) here. XD

So, I’m having some trouble editing my WIP. (This is not my NaNo WIP. I was ahead on NaNo, so I decided to do some editing today). Originally, the first chapter wasn’t the most exciting. It was more a slice-of-life kind of thing that introduces who one of…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

That’s awesome!! So happy for you! 😊

@jonas

Ok cool. I’ll think about putting in a villain.

Although I do have a few cool villains up my sleeve….

@jonas

Oooh, I like the idea of adding a couple of villains… 😏

I could add in a charrie from Amir’s book named Dabir. He’s basically Amir’s mentor. And I love him. He’d probably see Zahlin and Nahim fighting all the time and be like, “Are you kidding me? Knock it off.” And then they’d probably get really annoyed at him. Especially afte…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I love Marcel so much. I was fangirling about him to my family (I’m sorry if that’s weird) earlier today and they were just like “that’s great, sweetie” and then returned to their normal, real-life conversations. XD

Anyway, here’s this:

Idk why his hair and bubblegum look so red :[

@lightoverdarkness6

Aw, I’m glad you’re feeling better!

And I’m glad that you still want to draw! Even if you don’t want to share your art, that’s fine, as long as you just keep doing what makes you happy. ❤️☺️

@mineralizedwritings @freedomwriter76 @loopylin @whalekeeper

First off, y’all are all so amazing ❤️ Tysm for having my back and being so encouraging, you guys have no idea how much it means to me.

Today has been super emotional for me and when I opened my email and saw all of y’alls wonderful messages, I broke down in happy tears. I’m so blessed…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I LOVE YOUR ART SO MUCH

The lighting is amazing

Is that Seb or someone?

Uhhh for line art I just kinda scribble until it looks good XD

@whalekeeper ❤️❤️❤️

I actually started another Marcel drawing last night! I’ll show you when I finish 🙃
