@Dragon-Snapper *sniffs* Music used to be one of mine too, actually. Until I got a hearing problem that made it so I can’t wear earphones. *weeps pathetically* I’d use it both for inspiration and to drown out the noise around me (our house has an entirely open floorplan so there’s not a whole lot of quiet ;P) but blasting it loud enough without…[Read more]

@His-Instrument @Daeus @Dragon-Snapper thanks, guys. You people are the best.
I definitely agree with you about being cynical of most authors out there, Daeus. If I did seek out a mentor, it would be for the marketing/publishing side of things, even though I’m going indy.
Honestly, I feel like I can learn just as much about actual writing…[Read more] -

@emily-d
My favorite tool is music. Yep. Music. It is that absolute best thing for writing in the world. So inspiring. I think I like music better than the thesaurus and dictionary. Especially epic music. *nods* -

@theacornman Ooh, that is a good movie. Love the music! And Tars. Tars is awesome. 😛
@epicaddie2 *warily watches you warily approach Dragon Snapper and do the Hiccup thing* *tries not to melt chair. Ends up sneezing and melting your Ranger’s cloak instead.* Oops. Halt won’t be happy with that, will he?
Wait really? He was your favorite…[Read more] -

And @daeus …you probably said what I was going to say except way more organized. Take some of that ice cream.

Heyyyyyy guys! Look who’s posting again… *gulps and ducks under the table* I know I’ve been sadly absent. Life. Eighteen. Schedules. Editing. Life again. You get it. 😛
This is actually not a question about writing specifically… but rather, I want to know what you guys think about mentorship. As in, finding a mentor who will help you along…[Read more]

@Emily-D my brain… 😛
*coughs* What, that’s not what you meant? *grins* In all honesty, I think I must’ve short-changed myself when it comes to tools besides my imagination because now that you asked (and ruled out KP) I can’t think of a single one I depend on regularly. Besides ones I’ve invented and they’re more like theories than tools. So……[Read more] -

Hey writers!
So, I was wondering: What is your favourite tool (or tools) to use as a writer? I probably should say that I’m referring to “tool” as a resource or source of inspiration. And, before you say it, Kingdom Pen, its courses, articles, et cetera, go without saying. 😉
Mine is probably *drum roll* the thesaurus. I love it, I love…[Read more]

Hello, anyone? Anyone, anyone….
If anyone is on, I’m going to attempt to smash my writer’s block like a Technomite’s smug little face…

@Daeus yeah, I don’t think length is too big of a deal.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Title for my story in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 9 years ago
@Daeus ooooooohhhhhh… ooh wow. Mm. Yes. I like. The only problem I have with that one is it does seem a little long. Any way around that, do you think?

Time is a Harsh Master/Taskmaster sounds too much like a nonfiction self-help book. 😛
See, INFPs may not be natural leaders… but we wield the power of veto like a boss. *echoing evil laughter*

@Daeus I like both Time Turns Again (*small feelz attack* IT TIES WITH THE LAST LINE YOU SEE) and The Time Traveler Who Wasn’t Ready. The others… not so much. They just don’t fit the action feel of the story. Philosophy is all well and good (obviously, knowing me 😛 ) but the primary focus of this story, I’d say, is on the action/adventure. The…[Read more]

@daeus There’s also, “Who He Was.” Not sure why I thought of that….it could apply to either the MC or the Villain. *more shrugs*

Tagses!
@daeus See above.

Snapper replied to the topic Title for my story in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 9 years ago
Well, with the first one, Time Turns Again, it seems pretty cool, but I like the third one, Time is a Harsh Master…although, I think it might work better as ‘Harsh Master’ instead….*shrugs* Titles.
When you sent me the document you said, “Hi D.G., welcome to my book.” Maybe you should call it ‘My Book’? XD

@Daeus ehh… not quite. It sounds like one of those really old, stuffy devotional books written for children in the Victorian era.
*kicks legs and scowls at her screen* I should really think of something helpful.
