@ribbonash

I’m glad the conversation was a blessing!

Thank you! I really appreciate that. ^-^

Exactly.

I think I would agree with that. It can definitely be helpful to consider age when deciding what to include or not, what tone to go with or avoid, etc. as you’re thinking through a new idea.

I can see younger teens avoiding the YA section.…[Read more]

@ribbonash

It sounds like you have a good understanding of where lines need to be drawn in your own fiction! That’s an important understanding to have, and I’m glad you’re holding to that. 🙂

I was actually thinking about Calligraphy Guild (among other things) for parts of this conversation. XD The primary main character and her love interest…[Read more]

@ribbonash

No, I actually completely agree with you on content levels. That’s something I’m quite passionate about; explicit adult content (of any level of description; I do think such topics can be alluded to for edifying ends) should not be put in the YA section. It’s a stumbling block and it’s inappropriate. But I don’t think that more mature…[Read more]

would not be opposed…

(Lol)

OK. Let me tRy thIS AGaiN(I keep making same mistake and deleting my message, this is attempt number 3…4…?)

@ribbonash

Lol, that’s fine. I only started liking Percy Jackson around the third or fifth book. I think I really enjoyed it because it was me, a little sheltered homeschooler, reading a book I chose to for myself.

@kathleenramm

So I…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting

I’ll definitely will be checking those out!

@ribbonash

That’s so interesting! 1st person POV has always been my favorite and still is, haha. What books changed your mind on first person POV?

@anatra23

Yeah, I had the exact same experience with books I had to read that were part of a school curriculum. Still to this day they…[Read more]

@ribbonash

did you say… Percy Jackson?

OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS

I love Percy Jackson. So, you’ve read the first series, yes, but have you read HoO? Or KC? Or MC? And, dare I ask, have you read *shutters* Trials of Apollo?

Heroes of Olympus and PJO have to be my favorites out of the whole thing. Despite the flaws, and the infamous Gary Sue…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

I think Percy Jackson, as well as some modern setting/historical fiction books by James Scott Bell, really helped tip the scales for my appreciation of books set in those time periods. I also started taking history classes at my college, because I thought learning about history would give me more ideas for stories. Because of that…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

I was so particular about the things I read. I would only ever read fantasy, comic books, and I loved little stories like Aesop’s Fables. But it was only until I was like, twelve when I gave other books a chance.

I strongly disliked historical fiction, poetry, classics(with the exception of Laura Ingalls Wilder), especially…[Read more]

@ribbonash,

It’s really nice to meet you to

1. I’ve recently started reading fantasy and I love the magic systems. And I plan for there to be a magic system in my own story. But it’s disguised as a science competition so maybe there is a little sci-fi twist in there to!

2. I would like to write some short stories and other stuff (maybe…[Read more]

Hello! Is anyone around? I’m currently studying, plus writing, plus reading over an old story so I can decide how to rewrite it. Anyone wish to join a lonely Australian?

@ribbonash @gracie-j @joy-caroline @jenwriter17

@ribbonash

Ooo, that sounds really cool. The vibe sounds like something I’d definitely be into.

Did you have any favorite characters in the book?

@seekjustice

Animal behaviour books? Is there a reason, or do you just like to learn about animals? I’m intrigued haha. XD

Oof. Yeah, pretty much every story hinges on the characters. If I don’t…[Read more]

@ribbonash

I have not read any of those except for Deltora Quest, of which I have all the books plus one extra! And true I did not say a number!! 😉
