I know!! That quote is just AMAZING!!! I would love to see more of him!
Yes, it was a little bit flat in places, and maybe it could use some reworking, but honestly I think 1st person would spoil it. I liked all the scenes you had and the way you laid it out, even if it could use a teeny bit of work. That’s what I’m trying to say.…[Read more]

Sorry! I just saw this.
Hmmm…. I don’t like first person naritives… so that already makes me biased, but I honestly really liked that chapter the way it is. Like, a LOT. I don’t want you to touch it. If it’s the chapter I’m thinking of (the end one) it was one of my very favorites.
You can try the first person, but I say leave…[Read more]

I’m impressed that you managed that. I could maybe do eight hours, but not 12.

You’re not alone when it comes to getting easily distracted.
Should I write Farewell in first person?
Hmmm, can’t say. It seemed straightforward enough in third person from what I remember.
I finished all the short stories, but I didn’t give you feedback for all of them I’m afraid. 😅

I think his passion is what made him the best fantasy author. If Tolkien didn’t love writing, and didn’t love the story, then it wouldn’t have been a classic. It wouldn’t have been published at all.
That’s exactly what I’m saying. He wrote great stories because he loved writing so much, not because his ability was somehow greater than other writers.

I’m one of those perfectionists who wants to throw their stuff in the trash everytime they read it just cuz it isn’t as good as Lord of the Rings
I know you’re joking, but has nobody thought about the fact that it must’ve either taken Tolkien like 5 drafts to get it perfect, or he was just the exception to the rule and had everything str…[Read more]

How’s the editing going so far? I bet you’re super tired by now. XD

since most publishing companies fail within five years
Ouch.
Hahahahaha! Totally joking.
Well that’s really great. I’ve gone through the nightmare, and while horrible, at least it helped me know which information I wanted/needed readily available to be able to have WHP set up in a way that other authors would get what they…[Read more]

@rae @ellette-giselle I’m glad you guys were able to work something out!! I’ve just self-published every time I finished a book, but I have a book on writing and it talks about how to get a publisher, and I was like “wow, this is…..really complicated. Do we really need to do all this?”

Yep. Poor Sniper.
ikr, poor guy.
i love how it’s just like:
the character: is a literal assassin and would know like 10 ways to kill me if I got within a mile of him. Plus my augmentations to him give him two or three more of those ways to kill me.
me: I feel so bad for you, your life is so tragic. I would give you a hug if I weren’t con…[Read more]

Yeah, I wondered if it was Sniper.
lol you know me well don’t ya?
If I remember correctly, he was shot in the chest and the side of his abdomen, right?
I’m assuming you saw that image in the school roleplay lol. I think that’s right. I don’t think he was hit in the heart directly, but yeah, I assumed it punctured one of the big arteries…[Read more]

I’m pretty sure the authorities have me flagged. I had to do a “sell an element” project a couple years ago, and I chose polonium, which meant researching how to buy it, and also given the fact I chose to sell it specifically for murdering people, I researched how much it would take to kill someone too. XD If you want to learn how to…[Read more]

@rae How do you know all that shooting stuff, first of all?
Second, thanks! Trying to figure this out cause remember in that fanfic I shared with you, that scene where the enemy team shoots Sniper? I’m writing scenes from his perspective and want to know exactly how long he would be able to remain conscious before passing out and eventually…[Read more]
