@catwing HOW DID I MISS THIS WHOLE THREAD?? Well, you have folks with more experience than I, but I’ll submit my two cents anyhow. I like the second one better. I don’t have any suggestions as to how to change it, other than “listen to the other Kapeefers.” They’re a smart bunch. 😉 Very excited to read this story!

@perfectfifths It was a coincidence.
@seekjustice @jess-penrose @daeus @emily Thanks all! Here’s two new versions…I wasn’t sure which way to go, so I’m trying both. (They are improving. Slowly.)
I’ll keep playing around with it, in the word pit. 😉

So… Tonight when my family got home from dinner, I couldn’t find my cat. He’s an indoor cat, who is food motivated and comes to me telling me when it is nearly dinner time, and he wants his food now. But I couldn’t find him. I called him (he does come when I call. Unless he’s right there taking a nap. then he stares at me, “Hello? I am right…[Read more]

@ingridrd Oh… Nice line.

@aislinn-mollisong Wow. (That cat eye is cool! [Yes, I know you are using it as a dragon eye.]) But that line. “Don’t worry. I can fix this. Probably.” 😏 Oh, dear. What is he up to? -

How do you make it have that bar thing before something that you copy from another section?

@Aislinn-Mollisong got it. 🙂 You did mention that you weren’t going to use that in the final, but I wanted to make sure. They’re fine to use for fun, but if you’re going to use them commercially in any way… yep. Copyrights. 😉
Awesome! Show it to me when you’re done.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Cover Art help? in the forum Publishing & Platform 8 years, 12 months ago
@Aislinn-mollisong it looks great, but I’ve seen that image floating around and I’m pretty sure it’s not free; did you find the artist and ask for copyright license?
But as far as composition and layout, it looks great. The only thing is you might want to consider a slightly bolder, straighter font. Something more in tune with the fantasy mood.

@catwing First of all, go get a copy of How To Write A Sizzling Synopsis. It’s a very good book.
That said, here are a few tips to get you started. I’m working off your most recent synopsis.
1. Yes, use as few names as possible. Say “main character and his five friends” or something like that.
2. When you say these people are not normal–even…[Read more] -
