Ryanna replied to the topic Plot Help? in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 7 years, 2 months ago
@princessfoo So, the simple outline of the plot is an island that my two main characters, Randella and Azura, are stranded on. This island has never been stepped foot on by a human, and it’s called ‘Athiktos.’ (Which is Greek for ‘untouched’) The island is inhabited by intelligent animals (this part I’m still figuring out. Some of it I make up as…[Read more]

So. I have planned out quite a bit of plot line for my story, I’ve written three chapters, and am super attached to my characters. I have now realized that quite a bit of my plot is slightly cliche *cringes*
Does anyone have any ideas/tips for making plot-twists? I’ve been trying to think of plot-twists that are able to keep the general idea but…[Read more]

Ryanna replied to the topic Weird novel idea in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 7 years, 2 months ago
@epicaddie2 That’s actually a really cool idea. I don’t know about a full length novel, but maybe a novella or short story? Maybe you could write it about a tree living through a certain time period, and somehow share to the reader the knowledge about that time period.
You could write it like each chapter is a certain day (maybe like a diary,…[Read more]

@daeus @epicaddie2 @tatiana Thanks for the tips! The ‘show don’t tell’ is certainly a good thing to always keep in mind. 😀

Sooo – I rarely write in 1st person. I just don’t do it for unknown reasons. In my current WIP, I’ve decided to jump out of my comfort zone and try and write it in 1st person. It’s doing okay, but I’d like some tips as to how to write in that POV well? *shrug*
Also, I’m writing from two different characters POV, both in first person. Any tips on…[Read more]

Err – hmm, I’ve never read much historical FICTION (to be honest), but you could look up David McCullough. He’s got some great historical books. Also, off the topic of history/historical fiction, I just finished The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis and would definitely recommend that if you ever are in want of something to read!

@Emily and @EpicAddie2 Thank you! I definitely will write it out again without the flashback. Also, Emily, I thought for some reason I could do the memory slightly like a narrator scene – but as I think about it that doesn’t make sense. *Shrug* Yes, 1st person is ‘I’ and 3rd person is ‘She’ 😀 (I think?)

Hello, guys! So I’ve decided to share a super short story that I wrote a little while ago for critique/feedback. It’s not quite horror, but it’s slightly creepy I guess? *shrug* I get in creepy moods sometimes 😉 The backstory for this is that Jamie is a victim of a character of mine who brings to life everyones worst fears – kinda dark, I know. I…[Read more]

@Emma-Flournoy Haha! I get the feeling that INFP’s are the writer types – you gotta be introverted to be a writer 😀 Also, thank you!

@Northerner Thanks! I have been writing only about half a year or a year (I don’t really remember when I started). I really love C.S Lewis, and I must confess I really enjoy Rick Riordan’s work. I honestly don’t have a favourite book – I’ll read anything you give me.
Haha, I write in the plain ol’ American style, quite boring.
