Jodi Maile started the topic When you don't like the direction of your story… in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 1 month ago
Hello, everyone! I wanted to ask for some advice about a problem I have with a short story. Right now, I mostly do short stories, but this has been a big problem for me with novels as well.
So, here’s the problem: I’ll usually start a story with a clear idea of the direction it’s taking, the feeling I want the story to have. I’ll follow that…[Read more]

Hey guys! Wow, it’s been so long since I’ve been on hereÂ
because I haven’t written in forever and KP makes me guilty! This is kinda two questions in one topic, but the first one is more important haha.1. I’ve had a couple of pretty major ideas to add to my WIP (i.e., the main character’s dad died before the start of the book; a necklace t…[Read more]

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone would be interested in reading the first chapter of The Inventor’s Daughter! This is my first time asking for a critique so it’s pretty exciting! Let me know and I can share it by email. I would like it to be read before Friday afternoon if not that’s ok!
God bless!

Thank you so much for this encouragement, girl! It’s always so helpful and comforting to hear things like that from other writers, especially when I’m going through a dry spot with my writing and feel like giving up. But this is exactly the kind of thing I needed to hear, and you worded all of that so well! Thank you! 😀 😀 😀

This is good for me to read, and especially good for me to read when writers block hits. Lol I’ve been there. Priorities get me so stressed.
Recently, I looked back at my writing from a year ago and basically said to myself, “aww that’s cute. She tried.” I took me quite a while to fix some mistakes xD

Kathleen replied to the topic If you need encouragement 🙂 in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
I can totally relate. Especially since I have siblings who are incredible at writing it can sometimes be really discouraging.
I loved reading all your thoughts. Writing can be really tough haha.
What has helped me the most is to not have writing well my number one goal, but instead have it be to write stories that I really care about and…[Read more]

Natalie C. started the topic in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
So I recently had two or three ideas that really need to go in my WIP. The problem is that I’m already like a quarter into it. They’re pretty big parts of it (the main character’s father is dead, for example) so I’m trying to decide whether I should go back and add them in now, since they’ll affect the story later on in pretty big ways, or just w…[Read more]

The title says it all, folks. I just thought it might be fun to compare what your character says to see if the dialogue truly matches their personality or not.
So I’ll share mine first!
MC is Dylan, who is stubborn, quiet, and strong-willed. A little self-protective. Lmk if his dialogue fits his personality.
1) “Better.” (*rolls eyes…
