The fledgling Artist

@waterlily For me, I love to have a general outline since it often gets me past writer’s block. 🙂

Whenever I have an idea for a story or plot point, I just write up a quick paragraph just so I don’t forget it, then later expand on the idea. Same with character descriptions.

Since I’m nearing the end of one of the series that I’m working on, I…[Read more]

This story is so amazing, @dekreel. I agree with everyone about the ending. It was absolutely PERFECT. 🙂

@seekjustice Hahaha!  Except, I’m one of those people who can… “lucid dream” I think Warren Luther called it?  If I realize I’m dreaming I can often “write” the dream to go the way I want it to. 😀  But you’re right, the first half of the dream when I didn’t realize I’m dreaming usually has millions of plotholes!

Let it be known that I have ne…[Read more]

Hi, everyone! Could someone please draw a character for me?  🙂 He’s from my fantasy book series, and is one of my favorite characters. He’s the bestiest. No questions asked. 😛

His name is Rendon, and he is about 17 years old. Black hair, blue eyes, fair skin. He’s tall and since he’s a guard he knows how to wield a broadsword. He would…[Read more]

@seekjustice Okay, I’m back!  Are you ready yet?

You know those “you know you’re a writer” things?  Well, I just had one happen a couple of hours ago…

I was reading a story where someone was relating a nightmare he had to one of his friends.  One of the things in the nightmare was a chicken who ran really fast, and that was supposed to be th…[Read more]

@skye I’ve got 51 of the original 64 stories. They started going downhill around that so I stopped getting them. It did surprise me when I found out that Carolyn Keene wasn’t one person. However, it is kinda cool seeing which author wrote which book. I found out that all of my least favorite of the series were written by the same person. Most of…[Read more]

@waterlily I don’t outline. In my head I usually have a definite ending, a general beginning, and a few middle parts. Then I let it flow and let the characters drive. There have been a few times where I’ve been stuck as to what happens next. When that does happen, I just write a general time line and see where things are stagnant and try to fix…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Now that was a cool chapter! I really, really enjoyed that one. The way it read felt really smooth to me. I loved it! 😀

@catwing Goodnight!

@seekjustice I’m leaving for about half an hour, then I’ll probably be back for a little while.  I really need to get a little more done tonight. 🙂

@rochellaine good night! It is late!
I got a little more done. :3

@rochellaine Ditto! Alice is going around acting know-it-all and annoying. One of those crazy villains… *cough*

I think I do okay with my antagonists… I hope.

I killed off Kay’s parents in her prologue. But then I felt bad and made them an epic back story (why chosen kid’s parents are important persons. :P).

@catwing I love annoying characters!  As long as they’re annoying to the other characters, and not to the reader, of course.  I think they’re really funny. 🙂

However, I haven’t got much experience at writing any kind of antagonists.  My few antagonists that I have invented were pretty boring, in my opinion. 😀  I’m hoping to experiment with some…[Read more]

@rochellaine Okay. I only have a bit of time.
This is actually the first time have written down a scene with Alice… Kay’s archnemisis. 0.0
Trying see how everyone reacts to her, and her bopping of their swords and noses. She is supposed to be annoying. 🙂

@jenwriter17 maybe. It all depends.

@catwing How’s it going?  I’ll be here for a little bit.

@seekjustice I’m back.  Are you around?

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @seekjustice @alia
I’m working on the CC. Poor KaPeeFers. Poor Kay. Poor, poor me… *sigh* Putting my favorite underdeveloped characters into Kingdom Pen…
Another wonderful day as a writer. :3

@jenwriter17 Wow, that was bad. 😛  I only got in 175 words!

How did you do?

@jenwriter17 Sure! It might bring me out of the rut I’m in on my western!

How long?  Seven minutes by the timer?

@jenwriter17 Ha! @sleepwalkingmk just said she also didn’t think Chessy and Justice should be a thing at the end of Stars! 😀  But she’s falling for them faster than I am, and I think we’ll both be shipping them pretty hard by the end of the sequel. 😉  So you’ll have your way after all, I guess. 😛

@seekjustice

It’s time for dinner now.  I guess I’ll be back at the usual time.  See you then?

@seekjustice How is your writing going?  Mine is going nowhere – and fast! 😛
