I also use Scrivener, which I love!! So helpful. I’ll attach a screenshot below to show y’all how it works.
You have parts, chapters, and scenes (as @godlyfantasy12 mentioned) that you can create. There are also character and setting sketches. It’s basically to help keep you organized while you’re writing. (You can also change the color sche…[Read more]

Agreed. 😉
I’m serious!!! It was very realistic in that going back in time isn’t always going to work out the way you want it to, because TIME IS A FICKLE THING!!!! 😋 I especially loved how you intertwined all the backstories so beautifully. The last scene just made my mind go dead for a second, lol!!! Gre…[Read more]

@KeePers
Bulletin:
(Ooh I love that, it sounds so official) I plan on posting a daily (or weekly) writing quote here.
If that sounds like an annoyance, speak up now because you probably won’t be able to stop me once I start rolling;)
Temporary disclaimer: My internet connection will be on and off for the next week, so the times that I post will vary.

And the themes heavily revolve around: survival, endurance, hope, good wins over evil and person vs. nature.

My WIP follows the story of a young woman warrior (sixteen yrs), but since they didn’t invent the word ‘teenager’ until 1944, I’m stuck with the word ‘young.’ Ah well, anyway, the setting is in a winter, nomadic forest and I haven’t come up with a main plot yet, but at least I finished the first draft:)

Well that’s actually an interesting story (okay maybe it’s not interesting) XD.
Actually ancient Russia has a lot to do with my WIP.
Though I love fantasy, I wanted to keep fantasy out of my novel for a few reasons concerning plot, but I needed a place that snowed most of the year (if not all year), was frigidly cold and had cer…[Read more] -

ella replied to the topic What's your biggest excuse for not writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 3 months ago
Everything is my excuse. “Time to exercise!” “I’m going to lose my basketball skills if I don’t practice RIGHT NOW!” “Oooh, someone replied to my post!” “Nah, I’m not feeling it today…” etc. etc. etc. 😂
So yeah, I am the QUEEN of procrastination!!! 😜 Gotta work on that…

That’s awesome that you keep a quote journal:) Admittedly most of my quotes are on my device, but I always keep journals handy when reading, so I can jot good quotes down.

Abigail.M. replied to the topic Hello! (again) in the forum Start HERE 5 years, 3 months ago
My favorite genres would include: fantasy, historical fiction (ancient Russia mostly, but I love Victorian and medieval too), poetry, contemporary fiction and general fiction… actually I like a wide variety of stories XD.
