Hey guys I have a prayer request. I have a project at school as well as upcoming exams that I am struggling with. So if any of you can pray for me I’ll really appreciate it. Thanks!

valtmy replied to the topic The School Bully in the forum Characters 8 years ago
I think the others have already given some very good responses so these are just my two cents:
#1: Think of other reasons for your bully to torment people apart from the cliche weakness, jealous or insecurity. For example, some usually nice people that I know unintentionally become bullies when a new person intrudes on the comfortable…[Read more]

*appears out of nowhere*
Greetings, Kapeefers! I’m going to peak my head out of my hiatus for a second to ask some questions:
In my children’s books, I have a school bully, and lately I have been considering giving him a bigger part of my books. So my questions are: What are the motives of a bully? What are the literary cliches of a bully? And…[Read more]

Oh dear, sounds rough. I’m praying for your friend.
Just read your post about the adoption. Will pray for your family and the kids too! Hope it goes well and gets settled soon.

valtmy replied to the topic Character Development Methods in the forum Characters 8 years ago
My rule of thumb is that main characters should be both bright and deep. “Bright” as in they have some qualities that you (and hopefully your readers) find interesting (note: this is not the same as likable or attractive). “Deep” means that these traits come from a source (the characters’ past or background) that should at least be…[Read more]

valtmy replied to the topic How should I continue this? in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years ago
Yep that was the plan. That’s why I introduced plot points such as the other members of the imperial family, the history of the empire, the assassin etc. because they will be relevant to the ‘adventure’ part of things.
But not everything was linking up and making sense. That’s why I have been stuck on this story for a long time and I…[Read more]

Glad you liked it!
My original idea was a sort of Man vs God thing. It draws upon the belief that our lives are ruled by “Fate” that was prevalent in ancient China.
Basically the setting is a story world where “Fate” appears to cause lots of silly love stories to happen and the “Rules” are basically just all the…[Read more]

valtmy replied to the topic How should I continue this? in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years ago
Hmm… yes maybe that will work. I was planning on having a more sweeping epic but maybe a tighter story might suit the premise better. Thanks!
Sure no problem.

I have a problem.
I tend to start off writing well but I have trouble deciding how to continue my stories. This causes me to get stuck and saps away my motivation to write. For my WIP, I have been trying to see if outlining will help but outlining is hard when I’m not sure how I want my story to go.
So just to try something new I’m putting one…[Read more]

valtmy replied to the topic Is this boring???? in the forum Novel Critique Requests 8 years ago
I agree with what everyone else has said. I think the problem has to do with the pacing and the passiveness of the main character. There is a lot of description that slow the story down and much of the information conveyed through dialogue could have easily been summed up in a few lines.
Just some thoughts…
#1: The article in the…[Read more]

Haha I know you guys are all really nice. The problem is that people outside the KP forums can access it as well and I’m shy about my writing. 😳
Hmm… I did think about using that feature but I know not everyone may want to give out their email so I wanted to check if…[Read more]
