@Jane-Maree Best of luck for piano. I sort of self taught myself violin; watched tons of YouTube videos, but had no real teacher. It can be hard, I know. 🙂

@Jason

Well, I’ll definitely let you know when it comes out. Did I say when? I meant if. Lol

Well you can always hope. 😛

@I-J-Anderson ooohhh… I want to try her.

@i-j-anderson Oooh, challenge accepted! I don’t know if I’d do the Azia alias, but I’ll definitely try Jane herself! 😀

@dragon-snapper Thanks for tagging! 🙂

@princessfoo Welcome to the Kingdom of Pen! I hope you find your experience enjoyable and encouraging!

As for co-writing, a friend of mine and I (she lives in the States, I live in Australia) have also recently started co-writing a fantasy novel. We each have a character that is mainly our own, and we are…[Read more]

Oh, a note for those who were wondering what the market is for kindle books, I recently heard that Amazon sells well over twice as many kindle books as paperbacks.

@revayah1 I’m not a publisher myself so I couldn’t say definitely, but from the impressions I’ve gathered, I highly doubt it unless you published a very poor quality book and they don’t want to be affiliated with it. Even then though, I think that unlikely.

Me too, @aratrea . 🙂 Here is my homework at last! (Sorry for the wait, but I’ve been busy writing, so … not too sorry.) 😉

Picking this story, I was a bit nervous that I would fail to do it justice, so please let me know what you think. 🙂

@PrincessFoo I’d like to start this off by saying that you have a great name. Seriously. 🙂

And I’ll finish this by saying that unfortunately, I have never co-written anything, ever, and I’m extremely scared to do so because I’m a bit of a control freak. Soooo…just do what the others tell you and you ought to be fine. 🙂

@Aratrea

Well… listening to the video I was enthusiastically raking my entire cast together against the protagonist and now you tell me I can only pick three!? *sigh* Life is hard.

Hi @PrincessFoo I’ve never cowritten a book, though I think it’d be fun. I do know of a book on the subject though, but I’ve never read it. https://www.amazon.com/Co-writing-book-Collaboration-Co-creation-Authors-ebook/dp/B018GF66JE/

@PrincessFoo welcome! And unfortunately I have no experience with co-writing. At all. :/ One possible option for your specific dilemma, however, may simply be to alternate chapters/scenes between what’s happening with your character and what’s happening with hers even before they meet, assuming the plot/structure works that way.

@princessfoo Hiya! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internets!
Hmmm. Well, I’ve co-written some, though I haven’t done it in a bit. First thing I would ask is if your characters are going to cross paths at some point. I suggest discussing where each of you are going with your own plots, if you haven’t already. That way you can understand…[Read more]

This is doing a weird thing that seems to be happening a lot lately…I replied, had to edit my reply, and when I posted again it didn’t show up. *sigh*
I’ll see if I can post it again later.

@Abigail-Blomberg Wow. What everyone else said. :’o You got emotion in there all right.
I copied some sentences that have errors in them, besides the ‘lays’ Kate pointed out—I pasted them here, and you can probably figure out what the error is, but if I should point it out go ahead and ask me to. 🙂
But good job!!

I peal shoe off my…

@audrey-caylin I mainly did research, but I was able to finish off with 327 words written, so that’s good. Thanks for writing.

@emma-flournoy Yes, I suppose he would be.
