Yeah, you’re not wrong about helmets😅. But my character doesn’t wear one as part of his design, probably for the reasons you just stated, though I never really thought about it before … however, the armour he’s wearing is ceremonial armour, not battle armour — it’s a sign of status, not a tool of strength. And the boy on the left actual…[Read more]

The author of this poem, who at the moment is doing the dishes and thus can’t access her phone, has requested I tag a few people to look over this. (I think that’s what she said.)

Hhhmmm… Good question. I think my writing excels most when I’m working with my 3 siblings.

It kinda goes like someone has a spark of an idea, someone adds fuel to it, and then another waves the flame into a blaze.

Well, on good days that is. Most of the time we get side tracked and end up having an hour long conversation about how…[Read more]

@power That makes a tad more sense… No need to rephrase it again, people reading this thread will understand.

I suppose I am best at writing emotional snippets, usually quite sad and dreamlike. Not sure, though. Not many people have read them.

@power Bold of you to assume that I can’t both be a writer and a brontosaurus.

As for what I excel at, I can’t exactly tell you. The way your question is phrased raises a lot of questions in me. Why, what kind of writing do you excel at?

@power Ahh okay haha. I looked up the Mysterious Benedict Society and it looks interesting! I may have to give it a go anyway, so no harm done XD

@devastate-lasting Haha yeah maybe XD Good luck with your story though!!

@power Okie dokie, I’ll look into those! Thanks a lot!

@power

Yes!! The bullets, arrows, and explosions all mysteriously missing the main character by a hair, leaving them unscathed after a very intense scene is so annoying. And then the times they do get injured and brush it off like, “I’m fine. I’m the main character. I’m invincible!”

@power

Another great idea thanks. That’s one I hadn’t thought of.

@koshka, @anatra23, @power, @anyone

Because you might like to read it and help revise.

@faith-q

Haha, well, it doesn’t really have to be exciting to be unexpected.

Like the amount of times I’ve gotten story ideas out of an unexpected look, laugh, or hello is absurd.

Have you ever gotten an idea for a certain trait for a character from a person you know?

@cathrynv

That’s cool. Now you’ll have to credit Evanescence as a co-writer…[Read more]

@e-p-writes

I can respect those opinions 😉

154 thousand words is the general estimated amount here. Yea, I didn’t realize it was so long. My bro and I were sorta in a “who can read it the fastest and still have the most intelligent things to say despite sleep deprivation” contest. It happens more often than you’d think. Over most of it, I loved…[Read more]

@e-p-writes

Oof, yeah. Present tense first person isn’t something I’ve ever tried, but I can already see it going terribly wrong, haha.

The ending is pretty good? I was always a little curious about how it was going to end, but know I’m even more intrigued. I guess I’m going to have to finish it then!

As for your questions about The Hunger…[Read more]

@joelle-stone

Ooo… Asor sounds very intriguing… I especially like that last line… I have a feeling I’d be a big fan of his. 😉

@anatra23

That first line… XD *chef’s kiss* Love it!

@keilah-h

How cool! He sounds like a fun character.

@power

Oh. my. Goodness!!! Those are hilarious, and I love them!!! XD (I’m already a huge fan…[Read more]

@power

Thanks?

@anatra23

Otto’s accent is supposed to be German influenced, but my more recent book is Russian and may have bled over in the rewrite. Both German and Russian have a ‘v’ sound instead of a ‘w’, and no ‘th’ sound. I don’t speak German, so I’m not as familiar with it. They do sound similar to most people. Russian is spoken from the…[Read more]

@power
I’m stealing your character’s catchphrases 

@elishavet-pidyon
This is very thought out for a book without a draft. What’s the books genre?

@koshka
Idk why, this sounds Russian to me, I love it XD

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin

Those quotes are perfect XD
Swag ain’t to be worried B)

@power

Yeah, you wouldn’t want to know me now.

Now all I do is worry about my swag.

@power Ha! I love those lines!
