That sounds awesome!
If you don’t mind, I have a question about sending writing off for feedback: how do you do it? Like where would I send it? How much do I send? I’ve looked it up, so I have the general idea, but I was wondering how other writers do it. Since I’m kinda new to the department of beta readers outside friends and family. -

The premise mostly revolves around the statements “giving up isn’t an option” and “that which doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” (My poor characters). The plot is still uncertain, but that’s partly because even though I put my characters through a lot, I like them and I think they would be great in multiple stories. But I am deter…[Read more]

Awww, thanks! Your glittery pom-poms and motivational chocolate are making me even more determined to achieve my goals. *Shakes fist in new-found determaination*
Getting a publisher/agent and writing sequels is so cool! Have you published a book before or is this your first? My cartwheels are a little rusty, but I’ll be here to…[Read more]

@r-m-archer, that series was super helpful, thanks!
What is your personal experience with self-publishing? Why’d you pick that over traditional?

Alien and Sojourner in a Foreign Land replied to the topic Looking for Worldbuilding Guest Authors in the forum Non-Fiction 3 years, 10 months ago
@r-m-archer That sounds like a neat idea, but I don’t have a lot of time right now. I’ll think about it and see if I can come up with anything. If I do come up with anything, I’ll let you know. If I don’t, I’ll probably just never speak to you again…XD So I would just be writing about languages/other in general? Anything specific?

@r-m-archer This is awesome! I’m going to spend some time thinking about this — I do have experience with everything you mentioned except maybe language, but I’m certainly not a master at developing the things you mentioned. I do give a lot of attention to the cuisine and fashion in my novel so if I can figure out a good way to write out my…[Read more]

@r-m-archer I’d have to ask my mom first, but I’d totally be willing to help out with the fashion aspect! While I’m not like a fashion expert or anything, I’d enjoy giving it a shot because I can usually see characters in my mind, including clothing.
Except…..I’m not super great and describing clothing so maybe I wouldn’t be the best ch…[Read more]

Larchness replied to the topic Subgenres–Helpful or a Hindrance? in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 10 months ago
@devastate-lasting That’s interesting about series fantasy, because just from reading the description I wouldn’t really call it a “genre,” more like a…structure? Like any genre can have the same structure as a series fantasy, right? What about your story makes it so?
I’m the same way for coming up with the ideas. I remember at one point years…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting Word of advice if ya do! Make sure they are a good magazine to go with (as in they won’t steal ur stuff) I heard about a boy who entered a contest or something and the newspaper or whoever took his story and didn’t give him any credit. Or something like that.
But if it’s good and u want to then go for i…[Read more]

I could really use some help. As I mentioned, I’m doing a long “outline” of all of my scene ideas, but now I’m running low on steam lol. I’ve reached the part in the outline right before the Fun and Games begins (most of the middle).
First, I’m struggling with the…[Read more]
