Snapper started the topic We'll Ignore that I'm on a Hiatus…. in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 4 months ago
*waves hand around* Yes, yes…I know I said I’d see you all next year, but this is a question that couldn’t wait any longer.
Currently, I’m trying to write a novel. Too many novels actually, which is where this problem came up. You see, I finished Sector One, so I’m trying to write the sequel to it. But I’m 71,000 words in with 30,000 more to…[Read more]

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Would someone please tell me if these first chapters are too depressing? in the forum Novel Critique Requests 8 years, 4 months ago
Identical thoughts to @daeus Good premise, and if the entire story isn’t going to be as dark in the first chapters, you just want to include enough glimpses of light to indicate that. I don’t personally have a problem with dark, depressing stories when there’s a point to them, but you don’t want to unintentionally indicate that’s the type of story…[Read more]

@his-instrument I love the plot line.
I don’t know if I’ll be able to read the first chapters, but just some thoughts. I think you can set a tone in these first chapters that lets your reader know you’re not out to scare them. If you don’t get too graphic with the murder and torture scene and you give the reader one or two, morally good, hopeful…[Read more]

@Daeus sounds good to me. 😛 Honestly I haven’t studied it as much as I should have. But from what I know of Pinterest, that’s a very solid plan.

@lifeofkatie Okay, thanks. That helps. I think I’m going to give it a try. 😀
@introvert_girl That makes sense, though I think I’ll create all my own pins.

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Hi, I'm GabbyJ! in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 4 months ago
@gabbyj I did–it was a great experience! It worked quite differently then than I believe it does now, but I learned a lot of Scripture passages through that and grew a lot because of it over these three years.
That’s great that you’ve been able to discover new authors through our interviews. 😀 I’m thrilled that we’re able to interview so many…[Read more]

@emily Time travel
@dragon-snapper A Christmas party
@everyone Would you character rather be turned into a dragon for his greed (Eustace Scrubb) or fight a witch that turns into a dragon (Prince Philip).

@introvert_girl @kate-flournoy @seekjustice
Thanks for your replies!
So, I’ve read and listened to some stuff about Pinterest and I think if there is a social media site that would fit me, this would probably be it. I think I’ll probably give it a try, but before I commit to anything I like to have a strategy for how I’m going to use it.
I have…[Read more]

(They’ve got it down; the people who did the ‘message’, the theme song, they know their stuff. They have a healthy mindset. 😀 My phrase was probably some American-particular thing, unbeknownst to me. XD )

That’s cool! Very neat. I like it about their glowing eyes, too.

Yes! 3000 posts! @kate-flournoy @daeus I’m catching up now.
Anyway, now that I’ve reached that, I’m going to take a nice Christmas hiatus. I’ll be back next year. 😉 By that I mean like two weeks-ish. When I return, I might or might not have LKD3 done.
Merry Christmas! 😀@shannon (and tag your sister for the sake of limited tags) @dekreel @sa…[Read more]

And now for a question of my own.
Would your character rather go to a political celebration or a Christmas party.
Ike would rather go to a political celebration.
