@daisy-torres Ahhh might I suggest you a thing called DeepL Translate? It works so much better than Google Translate for Chinese-English translations…

@daisy-torres Dang, girl… That is a lot! While, I, too, have several books planned to write in Chinese,  I have not attempted that yet… If you need me to check anything, feel free to ask!

Take a break! That is a lot!

@kathleenramm No, I haven’t tried. The time that I did try writing a story for a kid it ended up being kinda dark…thank goodness she couldn’t read…

My sister did write a kid’s book when she was a kid though! We’re probably all used to writing books for our age groups, haha…

@kathleenramm Well, I’m in the middle of The Brothers Karamazov, and I haven’t quite finished it yet, so… Other than that, excluding all the manga and books I’ve read for school, the last book I read was… The Summer of the Swans, by Betsy Byars. It won a Newberry Medal. My favorite thing was how nostalgic I felt reading it. The copy I have i…[Read more]

@abigail-m Ah thank you! Shuangzhou means “frost day” in Chinese. And it’s so cool that you have a character named Adrian too!

@issawriter7 AHHH thank you so much for reading! I’m so happy you liked it!

So, I’ve been trying to decide which characters to rant about, as to help me develop them…I think maybe you guys have heard of my project The Mafia of Heather Flights? Which I’m currently plotting… Anyways, I did the most plotting and world building for this one, so…

Y’know what. I’ll talk about them some other day. Let me talk about this…[Read more]

@gracie-j Aw….so cute! Reminds me of that one story called Billy Budd by Herman Melville… *sniff*

@godlyfantasy12 Aw, that’s really sad… Makes for character motivations, I guess.

@godlyfantasy12 Whoa, interesting! Poor thing…

@writerlexi1216 Ah, that’s so cool! I like them already!

@joy-caroline Of course! You go, girl!

@writerlexi1216 Wow, everything sounds awesome! What do your characters look like?

(Also now tempted to gush about mine)

@joy-caroline Wow, that’s a lot! That’s really well developed!

@writerlexi1216 *flashbacks to my old Goodreads groups*

This looks fun! I, however, have too many characters, so I think I’ll sit back for a moment before jumping in!

@scripter-of-kingdoms Exciting! Might join, though I can’t give a specific word count.

@daisy-torres Ah, that makes sense! Thanks!

This sounds so awesome! Unfortunately I can’t participate, but I’ll tag a few more people 🙂 @seekjustice @alia @rochellaine @godlyfantasy12 @dekreel

@daisy-torres @gracie-j Ah, one last question for you two! What genre would you say this is? I’m really bad at determining the genres of my work, haha…

@tabitha-cassandra Oo, those titles sound interesting!

The WIP thread should be right here! Hopefully the link works!

Ahhh, I love Sight and Sound! I used to go in person every year…they’re amazing…

Oo, I haven’t heard of those authors before! What have they written?

Whoa, I’m not familiar with all those sweets…but I do love icea cream as…[Read more]
