Trahia the Minstrel replied to the topic How Many Characters Should A Series Have? in the forum Characters 4 years, 6 months ago
It sounds like you’re writing epic fantasy — correct if I’m wrong — but if so having a larger cast isn’t bad. Read Brandon Sanderson’s Stormlight Archive series if you want to see a huge cast handled magnificently.
However, I would probably recommend that you keep the number of main protagonists to 3 or at the max 5 — just remember that…[Read more]

Ooo, how fun!!! Thanks for tagging me, @devastate-lasting!
Aaaaaaand, since we can talk about anything, plz tell me someone here has read Jane Eyre and loves it as much as I do!!!! (It took serious self control to not put that entire last part in all caps…😂)
(Side note: @power, that was gloriously fun to read… XD)

Okay, y’all, so I recently finished my YA fantasy novel.
*cues the high-pitched screams*
But my next project is a middle-grade novel featuring a 12-year-old MC who gets herself into all sorts of scrapes.
The problem is, I’m not naturally a humorous writer. It’s something I’m trying to work on in this story, true, but a very not funny writer…[Read more]

I’ve recently started rewriting my second book. Here’s an excerpt from what I’ve just wrote today:

@annabelle Yeah, you can talk about anything!
Wow, congratulations on your author spotlight! It looks quite interesting!
As someone who is also juggling several projects, I relate. Which one is your favorite story to work on right now?
Ah, I’ve always gotten emails from YWW, but never could bring myself to join. But I’m planning on taking some…[Read more]

Hello, one and all! For those of you who are newer, we used to have some topics called “Writer’s Corner” or something like that, but I’m far too lazy to search for the previous ones or consult how many of these we have been through, so we can just start a new one.
This thread is just a place for off-topic chats, where we can talk about our day or…[Read more]

Lovely poem!!! It looks like @thelobsterlover and @power did a phenomenal job explaining everything, so there’s not much for me to say, other than great job! 😀

@godlyfantasy
I read your poem. It’s amazing (better than I could do anyways). I love the use of the repetitive first verses; it sets up such a good, vaguely ominous tone and feels very intentional. I was going to point out some problems with the verses, but it seems @power beat me to it (and also said it a lot better). The first stanza is great…[Read more]
