@Daeus Yes, I’m officially ruined. XD

@Aratrea I’ll definitely do that then! Blog post coming up late May/early June. 😀

@sleepwalkingMK Ooh, I’d like to try Joshua.

@aysia-serene Hey, not bad! I likey 😀

@jane-maree That’s hilarious about the movies. xD I love it!

That would be absolutely fantastic if you’d be willing to do that for us! Our tentative course release date is May 22nd, so anytime after that would be awesome. 😀

Ha. Not what I expected people to learn through the course, but that’s great! And congrats on the addition of a new…[Read more]

Okay Elizabeth, here I am again. 😀

The next plot point is the Midpoint. This is where Kara transitions from reacting to the events of the story to actively pushing the story herself. Which means she needs to settle on what basic EiL she’s going to side with and start fighting for. She’s not going to think it out in so many words (‘I believe…[Read more]

@graciegirl I’ve got to go now, but I wrote 1351 words. Good luck!

@Daeus YES! A chance to rant! *rubs hands* Where to begin…?

The forum specifically has been a place of great comfort to me as it’s full of people who think the same way I do and speak the same mental language. Just knowing there are other people like me out there is so meaningful, even setting aside the help we’re able to give each other by…[Read more]

@graciegirl Aha! A partner! Perhaps now I can concentrate. 😛

@that_writer_girl_99 @winter-rose @daeus graciegirl I’m going to be writing for maybe an hour.

@princessfoo And now for the long delayed response. So sorry. I just completely kept putting this off. Not anymore!

As for your character, here are just a couple pointers. Often I’ve seen that characters who are quieter and have a lot of problems tend to be weak and not very attractive. This totally does not need to be the case, but it can be if…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 @winter-rose *goes to charge then does random u turn* Change of plans…though I will probably write later on.

@winter-rose I’ll join you!

@aysia-serene Thank you! I was actually going to ask if anyone had more characters!
@i-j-anderson @christi-eaton @anne-swiftblade I think you three share this character, the Polecat.

@Aratrea I concur with everyone else – looking deeper into the books/movies I read/watch and seeing how they did theme. And rewatching these videos. 😛 And applying what I have learnt to all my novels.

I’ve already had some instances when talking with my family after we’ve watch a movie and I start going off about character arcs and Experiments…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 my pleasure. And really, it’s good for me as well. It helps me solidify and become more skillful with the things I’ve learned if I try to teach them. 😉

Okay… signing out now… have a lovely evening. 😉

@That_Writer_Girl_99 ha! See? You don’t even need me! 😀 You’re doing great by yourself. *grins* Really and truly you are.
I need to sign out now, so we’ll tackle the midpoint tomorrow, okay?
(By the way. I think I’m officially in love with Blake. He sounds like an amazing character).

@that_writer_girl_99 😛
I think that I’m actually going to sign off now. I can’t write very much with the knowledge that my sibling is watching Star Wars. 😛

@That_Writer_Girl_99 that is great and that is awesome and I could not approve more. *hugs you*

The question you wanna ask yourself though is how you’re going to make this tie into the FPP. First, if you’re going to use Blake as Kara’s main foil and impact character (a character whose differences push your MC along in their arc) you need to get…[Read more]
