Tell her to come check us out, I’m sure she could learn something. *grins*
@rochellaine gave a pretty good answer as to what the differences are, but I’d like to point out that there are also many similarities between fiction writing and screenwriting. The plot points are the same, though they happen over shorter periods of time, and ideas like…[Read more]

Hey guys! I’m not a movie/film writer……at all. But my bestie is. She recently starting writing a couple movies, but she’s previously just been a children’s book writer. Do any of you have any advice on what’s the biggest difference between writing fiction and writing a movie? Any tips I can give her?
I’m not sure who writes movies/films so…[Read more]

Joy started the topic Self-Doubt… in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
Heya, Kapeefers. Early warning: this is kind of a deep post
I need some help… Lately I have been seriously self-doubting myself and my ability to write, and comparing myself to other writers.
I write because I love story-telling, not because I want to be published (although that would be kinda cool). I just want to write stories. And I don’t…[Read more]

@rochellaine *sigh* Yes, I have done that. It was, of course, painstakingly tiresome, but it needed to be done.
Your story sounds interesting. Very original. *thinks: Why can’t I come up with ideas like that?* 😉

Ben Powell replied to the topic Writer's Corner #13 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
@rochellaine Semi-dystopian might work. Although the world’s not falling apart. 😉
To answer your questions:
Third person. Though I have been known to change my mind in the middle of a story. 🙂
The protagonist is a girl. I usually write male protagonists, but this story just felt like it needed a girl.
What’s your his-fic story about?

Ben Powell replied to the topic Writer's Corner #13 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
@rochellaine A culture-focused time travel story…that sounds like an interesting premise. 😀
Well, the political situation at the time is slightly altered from our present one. It’s what it /could/ be like in a few years. Besides that, the story could be contemporary.

@rochellaine Well…it’s actually hard to tell at the moment. It’s set in the near future, but it’s not really sci-fi. I don’t know what to call it.
Isn’t it cool how music inspires us like that? 🙂

Thanks everyone! @emma-flournoy @ariella-newheart @rochellaine
I think I’ve got it now. I’ll come back to this a few months from now to see if I can make any small improvements, but I think it’s generally solid. 😀

@rochellaine oh yeah, if you could PM it…. I had a spelling error I tried correct then it didn’t repost… And it took me 20 minutes to type since I was using the phone. Yes I do have it saved on my non internet laptop. 😉
