Yeah lol. The downside with pantsing is that, while you can get to some insane page counts, there will be some kind of plothole, or absolutely no ending/arcs at all… I’ve done that a lot. 🤣

@awsumfaith

Aww, thanks! I’ll probably post another soon. 🙂

While most of my WIPs end up getting put to the side at least for a little while, this one can’t really do that, because I’m part of a writing group. Basically I have to get a chapter done at least every two weeks, and that’s pushing it. It helps cause they can catch things like small…[Read more]

@euodia-vision

I definitely recommend Screwtape Letters 😉 Thanks for your recommendations!

Sebastian

With that out of his system, Seb found himself sitting on the cold marble floor, in the fetal position. After a good few minutes of grumblings and sharp, angry sniffs, he stood up.

The passageway was still gray and motionless. But there might be others.

In fact, soft, fluttering echoes brushed the cobwebs on the curtains. These echoes…[Read more]

Coolio, I’ll write his POV in a minute

Do be aware, he’s not… the nicest kid. He’s not going to like any character right off the bat, unless they look like a strong role model/royalcore/hilarious troublemaker. So keep that in mind. He’s very pessimistic.

Here’s Brycen’s first POV for Chapter 3:

Brycen ducked under a tent flap, moving swiftly and silently. A black cloak followed behind him, the hood up to hide his face. In his hand was a necklace- expensive, with some kind of…[Read more]

@esther-c

Thanks so much!!! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 🙂

Yeah, I figured I’d have to move some stuff around once the drafting was done. But hey, I’ll just surprise myself and magically have double the chapters that way XD

@loopylin

It’s that kind of show where you know it’s for 7 to 10-year-old boys, but the nostalgia just whams you in the face XD It’s also the one secret I kept from my best friend, even when I moved away. She was always rambling about how babyish the show was (her brother watched it), and I secretly loved it.

Aaaand look at that, I changed my…[Read more]

@loopylin

I love the whole lighter idea, with him flicking it on and off. Really adds to his character.

YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

Yeah, it is XD

@felicity

It’s definitely leaning more towards horror; like ‘The Case of the Bloody Footprints,’ ‘The Case of the Man-Eating Rats,’ ‘The Case of the Skull in the Jar,’ that sort of thing. Those aren’t the actual names of the cases, but you get the idea.

It’s not… too graphic? A lot of the violence is hearsay, since it’s ghosts they’re dealing…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

Emotions are definitely interesting. You can’t just think all the time, “how would I feel?” because not all people respond the same way as others. So it definitely requires you getting to know your characters…

Oh, and Mary Sue makes a lot more sense now lol.

I, unfortunately, have yet to read much by Brandon Sanderson. I do…[Read more]

@janellebelovedpig

I love part two and three! The storyline is really good, and I’m excited to see where it’s heading. 🙂

Alright! I’m just gonna keep the chapters on here instead of making a different forum, so ignore the name. 🤣

Definitely let me know if Nia went way off the rails… I’m not the greatest at… I don’t know what to call it. Villian writing? She’s not exactly a…[Read more]

@esther-c

👍!!!

@thearcaneaxiom

Thanks! I definitely was kind of experimenting with a lot of different things that I normally don’t do in my writing… Like prophecy, and more POVs than I’m used to. Throughout the next few chapters, more are added in, including the male POV. I think something I’ve also done is made a lot of the characters…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Thanks!!! How to Train Your Dragon is awesome, and your story sounds really cool. 🙂 I’ll tag you when I get the next chapter up!

@felicity

Thanks for the advice! 🙂I think I will go a little wild and do some planning for the next chapters, just to make sure everything stays clear. 🤣

I’ll most likely have chapter two up by the end of the day. Just gonna look over it first, because I’ve been looking at so many WIPs that I kind of got it confused with another… So, I’m just…[Read more]

Random thought rq, Blackhorn’s speech was normally italicized, but it didn’t do that when I transferred it, so that’s why it’s weird. 😅 Thanks to everyone who reads through that lol.

@janellebelovedpig

Thanks!!! 😃

@felicity

Thanks! And I get it, sometimes I even confuse myself with worlds that I built. 🤣

Hmmm…. Good question. I guess I’d…[Read more]

@euodia-vision

Dear Wormwood is the best. Very melancholy, but hopeful as well. It’s funny, because I’m actually writing an essay on Screwtape Letters right now… XD But actually I discovered the album last week, and Oh Hellos consequently. Do you have any recommendations?
