Oh, Hooray! I finally got around the quirks in my gmail account and have a google document with the opening of my book!
So please read it and tell me if after reading this much you would keep reading. Or something like that.
Right now I’m not looking for grammar and editing issues, but just trying to make sure that it’s a good idea to c…[Read more]

Okay, I’ve got a little bit of clarification to do. 🙂 Mostly because I took a lot of time off from writing for finals last month, and am just getting back into it, so I had kind of forgotten a couple of the plans I had made for this book. Therefore, when I wrote the synopsis I missed a few things.

Here is a better example of my manga/cartoon blend style. I usually just draw profiles. The girl with the hat is my favorite 🙂

@rochellaine OH, SPANISH MOSS!!! Yes, that is gorgeously mysterious!
@princessfoo Heheh, that’s funny. I can totally imagine that happening to me.
@mariposa Yeah I think I’ve gotten the “How you gonna pay the bills?” question at least once.
Funny the mistakes we make in writing…..Thank goodness for editing………i guess. 🤔

This doesn’t have a name yet, but it is supposed to be a contemporary novel set in the American West with a plot similar to the old Westerns. This is not a book blurb, just an explanation of what it’s about.
Chara (Sh-ah-ra) Doran visits her uncle and aunt in Nevada. She is a five-foot-tall nineteen-year-old who is self-conscious about her s…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Hi, thanks for your comments. (I’m assuming it was you.)
I’m planning on editing and finishing the story hopefully in a few days or a week, and then I’ll post the completed version here – I guess for more critique. 🙂
So thanks everyone, and I’ll talk to you about the story in another little while.

I created this topic to share all the funny and weird things that has happened to us being writers. Here’s a couple of my experiences….
I daydream while my mom and another mom-friend talk about their kids’ interests. I’m really not part of the conversation until my mom says, “My daughter writes books.”
Mom-Friend turns to me. “Oh really?…[Read more]

Yes, I think there is something about writing and the joy of creation that draws certain personality types more than others!
Glad you like my story idea! My imagination tends to go towards the crazy when giving me ideas. I guess I just wanted to write a strong female protagonist without it becoming a typical “I can…[Read more]

valtmy replied to the topic Hello everyone! in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 2 months ago
I prefer instrumentals since a lot of lyrics do not really appeal to me. I listen mostly to soundtracks and scores from shows and musicals since I feel that they offer more variety than mainstream genres. I also listen to classical sometimes, especially Tchaikovsky. A relic from my childhood piano and music lessons.
As for my current…[Read more]

I suppose it is a cool last name! Except it can be a little confusing, since, y’know, we’re ALL writers LOL

@notawriter If you’re Notta Writer, that must make your sisters Starry Writer and Introvert G. Writer. XD That actually sounds really cool!

@mnvalentine Oh, really?! JK, Yes, I did notice XD

I’m making notes for characters in the KPA and I have some specific questions. If you don’t want to be in the KPA, you don’t have to answer these questions
For those of you who are new, I’m writing a story about us crazy people/creatures/aliens. It’s code named “KeePer Adventure,” or KPA

@notawriter Thanks for taking the time to answer! I totally agree with everything you just said. I definitely don’t want the superpowers to become cliche, but it’s hard to come up with new powers. If you think of any let me know! Also that’s sound advice about not telling the readers everything about the superpower, I definitely could see myself…[Read more]

@notawriter Well, it’s not really with superheros as much as they have “magical” powers. When someone’s power becomes evident around age 15/16 they call it their “problem”, in general society sees these powers as a curse instead of a blessing. As soon as someone gets their powers they are taken by the government to work. some people are able to…[Read more]
