Hullo! Welcome!
I like that poetry concept! You came up with those characters?
You’re creating a biblical curriculum? That sounds so cool! Is it based off of anything specific?RIP the wallpaper. But *ah* the memories…
I love to play piano!! Mozart is one of my favorite classical musicians! I can’t play many of his pieces,…[Read more]

Story I’m particular proud of? My WIP for sure. Ig it’s cuz I’ve spent years hammering out fuzzy details, and mostly having fun with the plot.
This is the best form of outline XD I depend heavily on inconsistency. (in the best way)

@kathleenramm
Who told you to guilt me on editing?
But fr, my biggest weakness is my tense. Constantly changing from ‘actively doing something’ to ‘did it in the past’. Ugh, it’s such a pain to edit. But I think I’m getting better.Strength would be creative ideas and plot, I think. That’s for sure the most fun for me too. Throwing together a…[Read more]

Just for a bit of clarification, are you asking how to write a character like this?
Whenever I come over a bump like this I try to put myself in this person’s situation(figuratively, of course). Jsyk, I’m not super familiar with this kind of issue, but I did have a character who was dealing with thoughts like this–self…[Read more]

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic How to know if your book should be a standalone or series? in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 1 month ago
I really just second what everyone else is saying!! For me, it depends a lot on what genre it is and how the story ends. So for a fantasy novel, I’m gonna really highly consider a series since it’s common for the genre, but for my contemporary romance novel I’m writing, I’ve been going back and forth over if I want to do one or not.…[Read more]

I simply have a hard time stopping my writing flow.
My WIP at the moment is a four-part book series, but was intended to be just one book. My issue was I couldn’t let go of my beloved babies after spending such a long time on them XD (Also the first book has a very sad dramatic ending and I couldn’t mentally live with myself…[Read more]

@joy-caroline You’re welcome!! Glad I could help! 🙂

Katherine replied to the topic How to know if your book should be a standalone or series? in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 1 month ago
@joy-caroline I guess it would be if you feel like more needs to be told about the character or the world. Or maybe if the overall story plot needs more room than one book.
I’ll give some examples. For my spy novel, The Black Cat, I feel like one book is not enough to explore my MC. It needs more than one novel to show Delano growing as a…[Read more]

Ah, the all too familiar dissatisfaction. This is pain in many forms. This is the point where I would’ve given up a couple years ago XD
But since then I have been taught perseverance! So when I’ve found my idea/theme shifts and am unsatisfied with it, I usually have to go back and read it and really just delete a lot. It hurts so…[Read more]

Katherine replied to the topic Have you ever written a story with multiple POV? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 1 month ago
Yes, actually I have written a story with multiple POVs. I did it for my fantasy novel, Behind the Blade, Without the Wings. I switched POVs between the male and female lead. After doing that, I realized that I really like writing multiple POVs, so when I came back to my spy novel, I decided to have multiple POVs in it as well.

“Did you really think that you could keep this from Mirabelle forever? When we met that night-”

Mirabelle looked at it nervously, unconsciously moving closer to me, her previous confidence dissipating as she looked at it, confused and nervous.
“Another reflection?”
I shifted my hand over on the kitchen’s island counter next to me, once again grabbing the closest weapon in reach–a rubber spatula. -
Not-So-Secret Secret Assassin replied to the topic Three Sentence Story Challenge in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
Munch munch munch.
Mirabelle and I whirled towards the pantry in the corner of the kitchen.
Standing in the pantry was a figure feasting the last raspberry Poptart.
