@devastate-lasting lol thanks!

@nova21 Hahahahaha cinnamon rolls! That’s great! XD

@gracie-j

Hey Gracie!  Aw, thanks girl!  I love quiet, gruff guys… they’re so soft on the inside, like cinnamon rolls… XD

@keilah-h

Nice!  She seems pretty curious, and now I’m curious about your story! 😃

@gracie-j

you’re welcome!! 🙂

I totally understand what you mean; I do that so often, which is why it’s lovely to have several very different people in my book so one can ramble, one play devil’s advocate, and the other one, who’s the quiet rough one, can end any stupidity happening in the disagreement. XD

@nova21

haha, thanks! I guess she’s based on yours truly *bows, then hesitates, evaluates character, and wonders if I actually paid myself a compliment or not… *

@gracie-j

First of all… I LOVE the name Keaton! second, his dialogue seems to fit. I suppose just keep his lines short, don’t have him using too many please n’ thank you’s and keep…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

Hahaha!  I already love Felicity!  😉

@devastate-lasting

He totally sounds like you described him.  If I had to go on an adventure now, I’d want him to be the leader! 😉

@daisy-torres

Can I hang out with Catherine for a day, please?  Just a day? XD

@lewilliams

Hahaha!  Poor Horace.  *cough* dumb teenagers *cough* 🙂

@nova21

You’re welcome! 🙂 the story sounds so intriguing, and I’m sure it’ll be epic, whatever you decide!

@kayleigh-idea

Hey Kayleigh!!  Of course!  That’s a great idea, I definitely get wanting that feeling of satisfaction. 🙂

@elfwing

Hey Elfwing!  Thanks!!  Oh I totally get that!!  That’s an awesome idea, thanks for the advice!

@daisy-torres

Hey Daisy!  Aw, thanks!!  That’s super helpful, especially the part about realizing that he can love <…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

Been there. A lot.

I agree with all these fine folks!

I will break up my advice:

1: I’d say don’t try too hard on things. If you’re finding it hard, write what you can, and don’t push so hard you’re on the edge of tears (personal admonishment for myself right now XD), but as Elizabeth said, refill!!! I love writing, but at…[Read more]

@maryg3

Thank you! it took me a year and a half to decide! lol

Well, I must say my inspiration was partly from a Griffin clan keychain pendant I was given two years ago. One side of my family two generations back has that last name. 🙂 That triggered the story being started as well as the story of the MC (main character), but the actual world…[Read more]

@will_starke

sorry, your tag didn’t go through the first time

@nova21

haha!! Great idea!! And I’d say your MCs dialogue fits.

My sci fi book MC is shy in big groups but stubborn and has her opinions and likes to bug her brother

her first three lines in the story:

(Omits action) Alden, stop it! I hit in here five minutes ago!”

(Omits action) “Good morning. I didn’t burn the house down so that’s encouragi…

@nova21 Oo cool idea!! Yours are funny XD

My character is kinda bubbly and sarcastic/teasing, so Ladies, here’s Catherine XD:

“It’s the perfect gift for your girlfriend, don’t ya think?”

“How many children will I be the aunt of? Six? Seven?”

“Oh! What if you have all girls! Your home will be amazing. Make sure you invite me over a lot.”

@writerlexi1216 Aww sorry you’re burned out!!

So personally, I have a few hobbies that I like to keep up with. If I burn out on one, I focus on bettering another until I feel ready to work on the first one again. Just make sure you do something so your creative inkwell doesn’t run dry, catch my quill?

Sometimes if I burn out, I listen to…[Read more]

@maryg3

yes I did come up with a name; The Forgotten World

haha thanks glad you like the meme!

@keilah-h

i see!  you still did well 🙂

@writerlexi1216

This is ALL too relatable, Lexi!  The way I usually (try) to overcome writer’s block/burnout is picking up a different project.  I have *counts Scrivener docs* 25 WIPs from the last 2 yrs.  Not that they’re perfect.  (Or finished.)

This way really helps me to take a step back and pick a project that I’ve been developing pre…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 I’ve never seen the movie but my whole family loooves the old cartoons!

@devastate-lasting Looll XD I mean some of the most interesting stories were born from chaos tho XD

@maryg3

ahhh yes they totally ruined the Hobbit movies. Although I think they did a good job of Smaug

LoTR is my favourite book to read and I’ve listened through it several times too! Cool that you listen through it too! I have the  unabridged audiobook copy narrated by Rob Inglis. I can fall asleep listening to that book now lol

i am cu…[Read more]

@maryg3

Hi!! Welcome!

Sounds like you are writing some really intriguing stories! 🙂

Have you read/watched the Hobbit/Lord of the Rings?
