@rochellaine I’ve never thought about this before. I’ve always just had the chapter breaks right from the start. I assumed that’s how everyone did it. I suppose it’s not a big deal, but it does work well for me how I do it. It helps me plan chapter breaks well and gives me an added sense of completion when I finish a chapter.

@rochellaine  That’s a very good point.  *smacks face*

He is fifteen years old.  He is mischievous, bold, and reckless, often does things without thinking.  He can fight his own battles, but tries to do too much on his own (he’s slightly arrogant).

Appearance: windswept brown hair, dull green eyes, average height.

Okay, so this isn’t exactly on topic, but I’m trying to name a guy character and need some ideas.  What I have so far:  Arian, Bryson, Corban, Devan, Crew

I’m having such a hard time choosing.  So, please either vote on which of the above names you like best or use your wonderfully creative mi…[Read more]

I think I’ll do some more of these, but for Casse this time.

@catwing Raised by the Iguana

@rochellaine She would probably rather be a commoner in France.

@allison-grace Climb a tree most definitely.

@aviantrail Sleep in the log. She would feel safer like that.

@perfectfifths Read a story with a translation dictionary.

@daeus Oh, cloud…[Read more]

Oh boy here we go..

@skredder actually I could see Tessa picking either one? but the more I think about it the more I think she’d rather know where she is and not speak the language. 😉

@dekreel Probably climb the wall just becuase shes a bit of a showoff

@perfectfifths thats a really good one! I think for tessa the choice is easy the first.…[Read more]

@waterlily @rochellaine

I was called away to do some jobs and I’m about to go out, so I’ll write with you both soon!

@rochellaine

Hey! I’m just taking a quick break to do some exercises and stretching and then I’ll continue

@rochellaine

Yes I am! No worries 😀

@waterlily

Hey, are you still here?

I’m outlining, anyone wish to join me?

@rochellaine  You mentioned the Klingon language, so I thought you might be interested in this 🙂

Accent Expert Breaks Down Six Fictional Languages

@rochellaine Thanks! there are quite a few names that are obviously taken from the Latin, but they aren’t as pretty in other languages. For example our some of our english names like Mary and Lucy used to be Maria and Lucia in Latin. the other reason I like using Latin for names is it gives (in my opinion) more meaning to the character, and you…[Read more]

@rochellaine Wow that’s so neat! 😀 Thanks for taking the time to answer. ^-^

@kaya-young cool! I like Valeo a lot 🙂

@rochellaine  Oh, that’s great. 😀

🙂 Yep, I didn’t expect you to want to try to keep things like my descriptions, especially because I don’t really have any experience writing Joshua’s voice, I just wanted to throw those in as examples.

Also, running quickly through scenes that don’t have much significance to the main story is a great way to…[Read more]

@rochellaine cool 😀 My favorite is probably Jarren Saree
Since these are all made up how do you decide whether its a girls name or a boys name? I’m curious.

@rochellaine Looks good to me 🙂 As with the calendar part, I don’t mind it so much at first as it also causes him to elaborate more on his past, which is interesting. But when he says that he didnt know it was important at first, it feels a little out of place for some reason.

@mnvalentine Yes! please do, they are really good! I would especially recommend his Kingfountain books.

@rochellaine History is my favorite subject! I enjoy several different time periods/places; in particular the Irish potato famine, Egypt, the 1800s, and the trail of tears. What about you?

@aratrea Yes, it’s amazing how Austin was able to…[Read more]

@rochellaine  Hey!  I had to leave for a little bit, but I’m back now.  I’m so glad you got most of your words back.  And I get distracted way too easily also… 🙂

@rochellaine Here |https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ko4Su754S_pyYGy-mSM_wQy2viP_i5iA3reQCtjwi7A/edit | is a kind of sliced up version where I made the paragraphs and thoughts less rambling, to show you what I meant. Also, one thing you could do is add more descriptions and senses; like how when he falls in the water, does it bite his skin with…[Read more]

@rochellaine  OH NO!!!  That is awful.  Losing something you’ve written is horrible.  Hopefully you can remember most of it!

@rochellaine  I am mostly brainstorming for my WIP (which I just finished the first draft of)…just trying to figure some plot holes out and such.  🙂
