@rachelle Arg, you’re making me jealous! Every time I try to draw the same character even twice, they always come out looking like two completely different people. 🙂

@Daeus WHOO-HOO! You’re officially an author! I can’t wait to read it!

Reposting this… cause I thought I posted it but it isn’t showing up. So of there end up being two of these posts, that is why.

@aratrea Hmm, yes. I think I remember that now. The last video I watched was on matching the character arc with the plot arc so that might have had something to do with it. Anyway, I reworked it. I’m pretty happy with…[Read more]

@aratrea Hmm, yes. I think I remember that now. The last video I watched was on matching the character arc with the plot arc so that might have had something to do with it. Anyway, I reworked it. I’m pretty happy with the disillusionment now, though I’m not quite sure how well the postive arc flows.

Round 1: The Disillusionment Arc

@winter-rose Well, I’ve got to run now, and wrote 178 words. How’d you do?

@winter-rose @overcomer @graciegirl @anyone else I am still writing for about half-an-hour

@daeus Yeah, I’ll be writing more, though not too much this afternoon, because I have a place I gotta be. But tonight around 7-9 I should be. It depends.
In that fifteen minutes I wrote 344 words.

@dragon-snapper Alright, I wrote 763 in that hour and 15min stretch. You gonna be writing more today?

@daeus …Alright, I’ll see what I can do in that frame. 😛

@dragon-snapper Yes, for about ten more minutes.

@daeus Are you still there?

I’ll be writing for an hour if you want to hop on.

Brainstorming is good! 🙂 @graciegirl Thanks for writing with me. 🙂

@overcomer YES. One of my favorite things is being able to see storytelling principles of a sort in my own life. Thanks for sharing! And I agree that faith is certainly another major theme in Lord of the Rings.

@anna-brie Sorry to hear that. :/ Unfortunately, I don’t recall seeing any posts here either…

@hope Yeah, characteristic moments are harder when you’re plotting over a full trilogy. That story actually looks like a flat arc to me with just a really poignant third plot point. To turn it into a disillusionment arc followed by a positive arc, I…[Read more]

@jenali That does sound like a depressing book. Course I guess that isn’t exactly new to Dickens. =P Good example. Sometimes catharsis means giving another character a positive fate if the negative arc character can’t achieve any epiphany.

@rachelle I think you could switch from omniscient to first person, you’d just have to pay extra attention to how you introduce your first person narrator.
