@audrey-caylin Technically, no, though possibly you may be able to apply some of the principles of writing a villain to handling a negative EIL.

@Arella-Noreen Heh, well, I live in Maryland, so no, I wasn’t there. What exactly is a Texas Christian Homeschool Prom? 🙂

@Kina-Lamb Whoa, plot twist! Daeus has a writing sister! And I know a lot of people have already mentioned this, but I’m going to also anyway. (please ignore my grammar 😉 ) Your photography is SO pretty! I don’t know how some people do it. I took a photography class this year, and totally flopped. 😛 Anyway, so glad you joined!

@Jenali Oh, yeah, that’s always fun. I have a hardened character with a pointy personality,and her name is Shar.

Another thing I do is take a word and write it backwards, then add or subtract letters till it sounds nice.

@Arella-Noreen Good to meet ya! We didn’t used to have many INFJs on here, but it seems like several have come on in the last week or so. 🙂 What’s your favorite book?
Also, we don’t live in TX anymore…some of us were born there, but we’ve lived in OH for about 12 years now I think. Where we lived longest in TX I think was near Lufkin. Where are you?

@Rolena-Hatfield Oh that’s RIGHT, you live in Iowa don’t you! It’s near Lansing, IA…I don’t really know where that is except that it’s up near the Minnesota border somewhere…
*heartbroken whisper* So that means you aren’t already going?

@Kina-Lamb Yes! Of course it means that, and I can’t wait to see y’all there. 🙂

HEY @Kina-Lamb! I didn’t know you were a writer too! Awesome.
What’s your favorite book?
And what instrument do you play?
I’m looking forward to getting to know you better here.
Also to looking ’round on your website, but the computer’s being slow right now. 😉

@I-J-Anderson *gapes*
Wowwwwwww… those are amazing. You do so well with the bodily proportions— I’ve always struggled with that. Great work.

@his-instrument @delightinlife @ethryndal @jess @jane-maree @arella-noreen @kate-flournoy Come on, guys! I can’t keep up with you!
Arella–I use roots to make names of cities too! However, the root is so obvious at some points, that I’ll have to switch a few things around at some point so that you root lovers won’t know
firsthand what means…[Read more]

@kina-lamb Woah! Mind blown! I had no idea @daeus had a little sister! Daeus, There is now a princess in the castle in that dragon story. 😛
What type of stuff do you write? What type of music do you play? How many questions can I ask you?
Welcome from the resident dragon!

@his-instrument Yay! I like points!

@i-j-anderson I’m glad 🙂 I’m just really enjoy drawing everyone’s characters 😀

@i-j-anderson Those are amazing! Oops! I forgot about the tattoo (and I don’t even have the excuse that it’s covered up – her shoulder is bare 😉 ) I also see what you mean about the hair – everywhere, wild and curly!

@audrey-caylin Nice work with those characters. I like the form of poetic justice that you’re using with Holly by allowing the reader to draw their own conclusions. And then role models like Skye are always great for protagonists to have.

@jane-maree Good setup there. I think I got the basic gist of it. Great way to use examples to develop a character arc.

@jane-maree Yep. Often we look up to people precisely because they’ve been able to grow a lot in the past. Great examples!

@overcomer I think either could work. You could make one the primary theme and the other a major supporting theme, or you could say they’re the same theme viewed from opposite angles. Your theme could then be purpose with the focusing question of “How do you discover and embrace your destiny?”, or, from another angle, the theme could be…[Read more]
