Hey, I am suuuper sorry for my late response.

THAT IS SO COOL!!!!! But, you have to finish the false prince series! It’s my absolute favorite!! Ooo yes, I can definitely see that!!! I was actually thinking about how similar your story sounded to the false price when you talked about it!!!

YES!!!! I’d love that…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I think for me it was probably plot and themes. I remember when I first started writing I didn’t really know what themes I wanted to write about, how to incorporate them, or if I even wanted a theme. Now I think that everything I write has multiple themes woven throughout, though I can’t quite tell what they are. (This is why I…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver Would I like to sprint? Yes. Do I have homework to do? Yes.

Do we still exist

Ranting about my new novel idea to myself in the depths of my soul. Will I share anything more than a few cryptic words? No.

@kathleenramm Plenty of places that I don’t even remember. Probably something similar to your waffle house experience. If I remember I’ll let you know.

@joy-caroline

That’s so exciting! 😀 I’d definitely recommend figuring out how you want the whole series to end. Ask yourself, at the end of the last book, what do things look like? Where are the characters? What has been resolved? What hasn’t? In regards to plot and character arcs, think of the series as a whole one big character arc, or one big…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Oh, almost everything. That you had to follow prose conventions taught in school or plot outlines that followed a specific formula, that your character had to go through a very specific and obvious development, that you had to write something that followed all of these things with a reasonable and expected ending…

None of those…[Read more]

@lydia-s

Oooooo what a fun idea!!!!!!! (Also, I just LOVE LOVE LOVE your quotes!!!!!!!!)

Alrighty, here’s mine. It’s for my character Keenum in my YA fantasy novel, Heir to His Crown.

If you’re waiting for my blessing, then all I have to say is pray your death comes soon. Then the world would be very blessed indeed.

I’d never ask for mercy fro…

@seekerofthetruth

Oooooo, I’m glad you asked!!! Honestly, the first thing I would do is give the character internal questions. Like, if the character is worried about something, show the reader he/she asking the question to him/herself. Like how @scoutfinch180 did in the first two examples Scoutillus gave. Inner monologue can really go a long…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

AAAAHHH, girl, I LOOOOOVE these quotes you’ve shared!!!!! Especially that impossible one. It’s actually one of my all-time favs!!!! Will definitely try to check back here. 🙂

I’m Issabelle Perry, the quirky teen author who overuses exclamation marks, obsessives over Lord of the Rings and The False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen, and is an unashamed  Skillet fan. First off, LOVE the…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

Hahaha, that’s funny you should mention that about the antagonist thing cuz my sister and I were just talking recently about how villains are actually not something you have to put in your writing and how even things like nature can be an “antagonist” in stories, like survival fiction!

Anyway, for me, it was long, thorough…[Read more]
