Elfwing replied to the topic Maps (creative title, I know) in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 3 months ago
Sorry, I didn’t copy my reply so I forgot some of it, but this is more or less what I was saying:
I only do maps on paper, and I enjoy it, even if they’re cringy and look like a 7 yr old drew them.

@faithq
i am also a pantser…  chapter eight of my first novel supposed to stem into a series of six books: “Where was I going with these five  relationships?! Why does the antagonist have a grudge on the MCs country and want to annihilate it when he has absolutely no connections to it? WHERE ARE MY GOBLINS?! They disappeared after chapter one…[Read more]

here’s my last one from yesterday!
Then he blinked in shock as Violet’s fist shot out like a viper and hit the man square in the throat; he let out a cry of pain, and released his grip on her neck.

I admit that I laughed out loud reading those and I imagine the first one has to do with the results of said werewolf abilities?

thanks!
yeah, it’s sad when people walk away. It’s something I challenge myself never to do and I pray to God I never will.
yes, I hope to start writing it soon 🙂

Elfwing replied to the topic What are the 1st three things your MC says? in the forum Characters 3 years, 4 months ago
haha I love yours! Totally fits her character!
I like how you say that you don’t know much about the MC; that’s what I do as well; they develop as they go along and I usually figure them out as the reader does. XD

ok, my summary of what you described:
Temira’s trust is hard to win so when she loves someone she’s fiercely protective. In this case, I’d assume she overprotects Reuben and doesn’t allow him to do things that could get him even a little bit hurt because of being hurt herself. Because of her loyalty, she is so careful to keep him…[Read more]

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

Elfwing replied to the topic Overcoming Writer's Burnout : in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 4 months ago
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]
