Is there an intended use for this topic @clairec

I shall tag the singers: @kate-flournoy @ethryndal @that_writer_girl_99 @daeus 😛
Now, the Dragon hardly sings. I know nothing about it. 😀

Oh yeah, and she could work at the arm during the day, then maybe have to work at a factory or something at night.

@moriahS If you want her to be taking part in more than just farming, which can be a lot just in itself, then there are several things I can think of from the top of my head. I know that in WWII, women often went to work in factories and other shops because most of the men went to war. They also knit socks and built things for the entire army.…[Read more]

@moriahs Are you looking for additional plot lines because you’re worried that protecting a fortune isn’t meaningful enough to carry a whole plot, or are you looking for additional plot lines because the story is too lean, and it needs more things happening in it? Not sure which you’re wrestling over.

@That_writer_girl_99 @MoriahS Ha, I see my reputation has spread. XD *rains purple glitter across the room* Don’t worry, it washes out.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 *gulp* Um… yes. Apparently I did. I’m sorry… it slips out when I get excited around people I like. 😉

It doesn’t have to be a physical difference at all. The difference you pointed out is perfect. Thing is, you have to realize the way people act is directly tied to their EiLs. Tam and Kara differ there, and that is the…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 YES! Blake also seems like a really, really great opportunity to be an Impact Character. In fact… you could make him the one with the complete thematic truth. That it’s better to face reality than shelter in ignorance. A very unlikely bearer of truth— maybe the reader doesn’t see it at first. But if you give him that, his…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 not a problem. 😀 And if you think this is great… sweetheart. Wait until KP actually releases the Theme Mastery course I learned all this from. I was a beta-tester… it changed my life. YOU MUST HAVE IT. OKAY. (I was not paid for that advertisement. 😉 )

To go about building a story… well… you need to figure out what…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 I stayed on as long as I could, but I have to sign out now. I wrote 1414 words tonight. Thanks, and good luck!

@That_Writer_Girl_99 all right!
*rolls up sleeves* You ready?

Okay. Let’s see how well I can say this.
DISCLAIMER: before we proceed, I just need to remind you (and myself 😛 ) that this is your book and nothing I say should pressure you against your better judgment. I can tend to take over with projects I’m really interested in and I so do not…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 I’ll be on for fifteen more minutes or so.

Alrighty! Another stone on the road to completion–I’ve reached 10,000 words! Yaya!

@dragon-snapper Most editors & literary agents I’ve read discourage this, but I’ve seen it done successfully a couple of times. Just as long as only one character has a 1st person POV, I think you could pull that kind of thing off.

@jenali Haha, yes–besides that. 😉 That sounds like a great plan to follow. And that’s fantastic to hear! I’m glad that this course has taught you how to write these kinds of stories, and it’s been a pleasure creating this for you and everyone else who’s been taking it. 🙂

@jenali Got it. Looks good!

@jane-maree And you two, if you wanted to give us some inspirational pizza. *big smiles*

@Perfectfifths You speak wisdom.

@ethryndal But he’d be great for some other, younger character. Just ‘cuz it was drawn to be one character doesn’t mean he can’t turn into another if he doesn’t work out 😉

@jenali @that_writer_girl_99 @winter-rose @daeus @graciegirl @ethryndal @perfectfifths @northerner I’ll be writing till 9 or so.
