@madelyn I enjoy it when I’m not crying, heh. Which I think can be said about anything.

@kathleenramm Yess they are extremely, extremely good.
@libby Ah, recently I’ve started to appreciate sci-fi more as well! Kinda want to start writing a sci-fi story in the future…any tips?

Percy Jackson was actually the book that got me into reading!
And I’m with you on the History subject. For me I think it really depends on the history book and whether or not they focus more on the people or on dates and basic events. When I started reading history that focused more on the actual people and their lives I started…[Read more]

I’ll definitely will be checking those out!
That’s so interesting! 1st person POV has always been my favorite and still is, haha. What books changed your mind on first person POV?
Yeah, I had the exact same experience with books I had to read that were part of a school curriculum. Still to this day they…[Read more]

@maryg3 Microsoft forms works too if you would like.

Lin replied to the topic 1st Chapter Critique for The Inventor’s Daughter in the forum Novel Critique Requests 4 years, 8 months ago
@maryg3 Just search up “google forms” and you should be able to do that. And no, I don’t have any other ideas as of now, sorry.

Lin replied to the topic What's the harshest critique you've ever received about your writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 8 months ago
@kathleenramm Probably someone said that the ending to one of my novellas was contrived. Lol. Maybe it was, since I was making it up as I went along. The person had reviewed one of my short stories favorablely, though, so probably I just need to work more on editing.

What’s the harshest or most honest critique you’ve ever received about your writing?
Now, I have a hard time getting raw honest feedback, because most of the people I hang around with (aka my siblings) are super nice.
But I really wanted honest feedback on my writing. So what I did was have someone on the KP team critique one of my short stories,…[Read more] -

@maryg3 Hey, awesome! I’d love to read it, but unfortunately I don’t like putting my email out in public places. Could you perhaps make a Google form or something for us to input our emails into? That’s what I would do, anyways.

Lin replied to the topic Add new ideas in now or later? in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 8 months ago
1. To be honest whenever I come up with new ideas I just add them halfway through and then later go back and add them in the beginning. Saves a bit of time.
2. Totally! Usually my chapters are 6 and a half pages, sometimes they’re 13.

Hi! It’s awesome to have you here!
I love TOP as well! My favorite album from them would probably be Trench. Fun fact, my family used to live in Ohio and my sister went to school with Tyler and Joseph from TOP for a few years.
She remembers passing them in the hall but they were never friends. When I was little I remember her…[Read more]

Hi! It’s wonderful to meet you!
I have to agree with Lin on your question about what makes a good book. If the author doesn’t set up a world or characters or story that doesn’t make you feel anything meaningful, then I don’t really see the point.
As for passions for a full time career… Honestly I have no idea, haha. I’m just always…[Read more]

Lin replied to the topic Tense Choices in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 8 months ago
@sparrowhawke Yee a lot of classics use first person peripheral, actually! For another work I was debating between first and third and finally settled on first person peripheral. Pretty happy I did.

Lin replied to the topic Salvete scriptores! in the forum Start HERE 4 years, 8 months ago
@sparrowhawke Greetings! I remember Blimey Cow vaguely from years past, but since a while ago I have not watched them. Twenty One Pilots I do love, as well as The Emporer’s New Groove.
Your name sounds familiar; are you on Story Embers as well?

Lin replied to the topic Tense Choices in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 8 months ago
@sparrowhawke I am a big believer and an astute follower of third person past. First person only occasionally, and always in past tense. Sometimes second. Been trying out peripheral first lately. But yeah, no, I don’t like first person present.

@madelyn Hey there! Nice to meet you!
I think a good book is something that makes me feel something (no, not cringe or anger or absolute regret or anything like that) but one that makes you think about it long after you close the pages.
Full-time career? Well, I’m currently studying computer science, so…

Doing class on Zoom means I am continually thinking up new aesthetics to do. I’m starting a new aesthetic set for some of my bounty hunters, here’s two to begin with:
