XD I’m glad I’m actually making some sense@whaley
I can understand why it’s tempting to write a character getting their way though.
Maybe it’s because we relate to our own characters so much? And we like getting what we want.
But that’s also how God judges people.

Thanks for the support XD
Girlll for a second I was scared you were gonna talk about my story and I was scared XD
Look girl, you stay confident and keep writing, okay? 😊 Once upon a time, each of us probably had a dark phase, and may still be going through it. Maybe your story started that way, but now, you seem…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed @savannah_grace2009 I have a Chase scene for you
@whalekeeper @loopylin @grcr @theducktator @esther-c @kielah-h @theshadow @ellette-giselle @anyone
I have a really sweet but sad Chase scene. For context, this is after Chase’s last battle with Narsa Jeptune.
oh, and beware, I’ve barely edited this. Criticism welcome 🙂

@savannah_grace2009 no, I don’t think you should delete it, per se, especially since it’s so important to the story, but it would be a good idea to clarify with a trigger warning in the beginning, like I said. Or have it happen long before the story starts or something.
I will admit something similar is in one of my WIPs, but I never make any…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 @everyone else in this discussion
Sorry if I offended you. I didn’t mean it that way.
I don’t mind that the scene’s there, and I appreciate that it wasn’t graphic at all. I’ve seen worse. (do you know how GRAPHIC high school anatomy books–CHRISTIAN high school anatomy books–can be in the reproduction chapter??? UGH!) My…[Read more]

Ok, that makes more sense. It just didn’t come across like that to me when I read it.
Maybe you could reword it, but yeah. I didn’t find the base concept cringe at all.
Yes, I would completely agree there.

Ooo, love it!! Ok, one there that’s a huge cringer for me is this. “You believe in me when I can’t believe in myself” I really, really don’t like the believing in yourself thing. You should not believe in yourself because you are nothing to believe in. On our own, we are nothing. Our works are nothing. It is ONLY through C…[Read more]

I think I’ve just been captivated by the battle between good and evil, light and darkness. Sometimes life doesn’t have happy endings. Sometimes life is HARD. So I write about it.
It’s not cuz I’m just like “Okay I need something super dark to write about cuz let’s just torture my charries!!! Yay!!!” I’m trying to be real and…

whaley replied to the topic NEW and IMPROVED WIP!!!!! in the forum Novel Critique Requests 1 year, 9 months ago
I didn’t mind that new revelation because it was barely mentioned. It goes right over a little kid’s head. And a Pythonos/Payne baby is an interesting challenge.
But I understand @keilah-h because the age at which you learned about these things makes a difference. If a teen writer is new to real-world dark stuff, they like to…[Read more]

I have been reading the chapters you’ve been posting but I just haven’t really had any comments cuz I’m bad at critiquing :p they’re all really good, though.
I can’t say I agree with Keilah, either.

Okay, here we go for chapter 7.
too unfortunate to get out of their path.
This phrasing sounds a bit awkward. I had to parse through it in my head for a second to get it. Something like “unfortunate enough to be in their path” might work a bit better.

It was really good! I don’t think I have any comments on that one!
As for what @keilah-h has been saying, I can’t say that I agree. Stuff like that happens, and Like I said before it was not graphically mentioned and it has a purpose. As for age ratings….. ugh, that stuff is so stupid now. It’s been so twisted and more…[Read more]

Awesome!! Glad we’re on the same line there!
I really liked the next chapter, though I really hate it when people get stubborn like that.
