@gracie-j Cool! Thank you!

@nanisnook Hi! I think mainly this all depends on your writing style, or your writer’s voice. Everyone has a different voice, and obviously it takes a while to find it, so the tip is to try a lot of new things! I personally gravitate towards a minimal style, with extremely minimum description. Recently, though, I’ve done a writing exercise where…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 Second draft haha what is that  Ahem. Anyways. No, I haven’t really done any second drafts before…I mean, sometimes I change core scenes, and my sister makes me rewrite some…I know I’ll be doing second drafts for some, though, especially the ones that i wrote when I first started writing. I’m gonna redo the whole plot…

I, u…[Read more]

@issawriter7 Ahh tysm! No problem, take your time!

@nova21 That looks great!

@joy-caroline Thanks! Reminded me of my most recent work and of the weather outside, haha.

@joy-caroline Of course! Good luck, and I’ll be praying for you!

@buildsbygideon Thanks for the reccs! Ah, most of the foreign stuff I listen to is rock; I really enjoy TK from Ling tosite sigure; his voice is quite unique and his lyrics are very emotional. N. Flying is a pretty good Korean band.

@buildsbygideon I do have a lot of lofi hip-hop mixes saved to my writing playlist (which contains too  many videos now to count) but most of the time I just find myself gravitating towards what’s fastest for me to find. Sometimes it’s lofi, most of the time, it’s chill stuff.

The music you like sounds really interesting! I’m quite partial to…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 @gracie-j I mean, I think I have enough characters that there should be significant overlap with yours, haha…

@writerlexi1216 (Wow, what are the chances that I, too, have an Aria in my story? Though I decided to use it for a guy.)

@joy-caroline I think that it’s great that you’ve realised what God wants for you! If you feel that this is His calling, go for it! No shame in publishing later than you wanted to.

Merging them? That sounds awesome! I’d say give it a try!

@buildsbygideon Music is my second hobby, so naturally, I love to listen to music while I’m writing. Usually I either dig out songs I loved in middle school (instrumental/epic stuff) or I listen to stuff that I currently am listening to on my liked playlist, which varies from rock to piano. I usually, however, open up a chill mix on Youtube and…[Read more]

@issawriter7 CONGRATSSSS!!!! Awesome job, girl! I can’t wait to read it one day!

@buildsbygideon Ah, I get you! I’m not the biggest fan of horror myself.

@buildsbygideon Yep! It’s a dark comedy/thriller!

@kathleenramm Yanhua would make a beautiful anime film, I think.

Yes, writing a screenplay for an animated film would be amazing, especially since you don’t have to worry about actors and things. But I think I’d be a good screenwriter for maybe like a drama or something. I think that The Mafia of Heather Flights would make a great crime drama, a…[Read more]

@buildsbygideon Oh, I really enjoyed Life is Beautiful! A lot sadder than I expected it to be. Yes, I’d encourage you to check out Parasite, though I have to warn you that it’s…not exactly a family film, and it’s quite dark and terrifying. But it is, in my opinion, a masterpiece.
