I hear ya! When I feel like that I usually try to remember my WHY. My big goal. WHY am I working on this project? Does it have a message I want people to see? Do I want to prove to myself that I can finish a hard project? Always figure out why you write every story and sometimes remembering that is enough to keep you going.

I’ve…[Read more]

Well, maybe somehow your fictional world is connected to other worlds, including our reality, so that it sometimes is exposed to the cultures of other worlds? Then that would explain being able to have the Bible with real people and events in your fictional world. Or maybe you make it more of an allegory with characters that…[Read more]

@nova21 First, OH MY GOODNESS your story sounds so interesting! Definitely something I would read! 😀

I really like @gracie-j‘s suggestions… Maybe the dream cut off at an important part and she misses some key information; then in her reality where the vision is repeating itself she won’t have this bit of information the vision cut off. There…[Read more]

I always do a lot of brainstorming with a new idea (a.k.a. brain dumping into a journal). I basically just kinda write down whatever little ideas come to mind for the book idea, and when I feel like I have a good amount, I might try to arrange the ideas into plot points. At the same time I work on the characters too, figuring out…[Read more]

This sounds so awesome! Unfortunately I can’t participate, but I’ll tag a few more people 🙂 @seekjustice @alia @rochellaine @godlyfantasy12 @dekreel

@nanisnook Kingdom Pen has some great articles on description right here. 🙂

@abigail-m I love that one! 😀

@joy-caroline That’s awesome that you’re following God’s guidance! Yes, He always knows best and His timing is perfect! 😀 Personally, I think the combining is a great idea. 🙂

I wish you all the best on your story! It really sounds like God has given you that story for a reason, so I know it’s going to be amazing. <3

Sorry to hear that, @lucy! I’ll be praying!

This is sounds like a fabulous idea! Unfortunately, I won’t be able to participate due to time constraints, but I wish you all the best; it sounds like fun!

I’ll tag some more people for ya… @seekjustice @alia @rochellaine @dragon-snapper @dekreel @ariel-ashira @godlyfantasy12

@nova21 Ooh the fitness cube is a really good idea!

Here’s what I usually do (tho it changes sometimes):

I gather a full water bottle and any books or papers I need for my WIP. I use a pomodoro app on my phone for my timer (working 25 mins; break for 5 mins). And of course, I have music. I usually put on whatever music I feel like I need (i.e.…[Read more]

@gracie-j Yay! 😀

@e-k-seaver

Ooh, that can be tough…

What I usually do when I have something I have to work on and another thing that’s grabbing my attention, is that I give that new idea my attention my daydreaming about it. It might sound kinda weird, but yeah I just allow myself to think about it, maybe brainstorm a little, and let it marinate in my mind…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver Cool! 😀 I can’t wait to read it!

@nova21 I just finished reading your chapter and left some feedback in the document. Thanks for sharing it! I really enjoyed it! 😀

Personally, when I see a cast of characters page it worries me that the cast is so large that the reader needs help to keep them all straight (when there are so many characters, I have a hard time connecting to the story sometimes). But I dunno, that’s just me…

I’m not able to beta read right now, but I’ll tag some more people @seekjustice @rochellaine @alia @valtmy @gracie-j @nova21 @issawriter17 @godlyfantasy12

@devastate-lasting We just set up a PO Box for that (and for author business things in the future).

@devastate-lasting

Cool website! 😀 I definitely think it’s a good idea to have a website, but a email list/newsletter is also SUPER important for updates and things (more so than a blog, in my opinion). I use Mailchimp to manage my email lists and newsletters, which has worked out well for my author business so far. 🙂

@nova21 Ooh, YA futuristic spec-fic? Sounds like my thing. 😉 I’ll definitely be reading it; thanks for letting us!
