Thanks! Well, i always had the idea for Hope’s character in the back of my head, but watching the Will Smith movie, I Am Legend inspired me to expand the plot. That movie, paired with Interstellar really sealed the bill for me. XD I love complex plots, high stakes, and characters searching for family/romance, so this story is b…[Read more]

@abigail-m I read it and enjoyed it! @devastate-lasting totally summed it up well, and no I would’ve have the heart to get rid of any of them

@kathleenramm intriguing!!
My plot stake? in my fantasy it’s these:
Stake 1: If they fail the world is destroyed by giant dragons.
Stake 2. If they fail they die in painful ways and goblins take over what is left of said demolished world.
my sci-fi novel…
1: If they fail to keep away from the lab that screwed up their genetics and made them…[Read more]

@nanisnook ok sounds good!! Yes, I am indeed! There isn’t really a deadline for finishing it as of right now. Also, I would suggest just looking up the definition of beta reader because I’m terrible at explaining it XD
So @keilah-h @nanisnook just email roseoakauthor at gmail dot com and I will get you on there in a few days. Sorry for not…[Read more]

Tbh, i feel like every era was just plain bad. XDÂ Maybe i’d go back to the eighties and nineties to jam out and crowdsurf XDDDÂ Not a super intelligent answer, but that’s what I’d do:)

for my WIP Spirals, the stakes are the choices between life and death. Hope, the MC, lives alone in the wild and wants a “family” more than anything: parents, friends, anyone. Every decision she makes decides if she’ll survive the next morning. The people living in the post-apocalyptic world are basically insane so she never know…[Read more]

Oooo, I love Keziah already!!! I guess one thing about her that would make people (yours truly especially… 😛 ) LOVE her is to make her tug at your readers’ heartstrings and make her relatable. Make her a mirror in which, perhaps, from time to time, they see someone who is all too familiar. (The desire for revenge, brooding, and…[Read more]

Oooo, CONGRATS!!! How exciting! XD
I do not have a blog at the moment, but from a reader’s perspective, I know my favorite articles are ones about the writer’s (or other writers’)Â book(s), whether that be memes, behind-the-scenes peeks, extra scenes, cover reveals, etc. I especially love fun stuff about the book (Covers, memes,…[Read more]

Ah, Danek… I could likely rant for hours about him, poor fellow. He’s a villain… of sorts. (It’s hard to explain without spoiling books 1 and 2.) But anyway, basically, he just wants someone to love him, but, unfortunately, it seems fairly impossible. His mother is dead; his father was emotionally crippled by her death and isn’t a…[Read more]

Elfwing replied to the topic What's the most recent book you've finished? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 8 months ago
yes, poor Colin. It also shows how critically important parents are; if you don’t teach your child to be confident and  a little independent, they literally cannot do things for themselves. And yes, he’s not a character I want to relate to but I can and it is encouraging to see his transformation!
as for my writing style… it was…[Read more]
