@everyonesofar
I’ve read all your posts! Even though I can’t reply to them all because length – I agree that you can’t write something you don’t know already. You can still write an extroverted character if you’re introverted, but they’ll be a combo of extrovert behavior you already know and some of your own brain wanderings. Like the Loops/Dante…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 @trailblazer
I feel like my humor comes naturally and it fits naturally in my stories (ok, not all the time. I have removed a few jokes that are just too cringe, lol), but not all stories need some level of humor. I think the reason humor comes through in my stories is because I’ve been told I’m a funny person (or cra…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @esther-c @savannah_grace2009 @loopylinOk, so this might sound very basic, but I think for me, my writing stems from storytelling. I’ve had several people, who didn’t even know me or know that I write, tell me that I’m a storyteller. I think most writers are storytellers, but not all, at least not all in the same way. I have struggled…[Read more]

I’ve been wondering about this since discussing writing as a gift from God (with Esther and various others… I can’t remember who because I’m so sick right now 😂).
I’ve noticed everyone has a different writing approach. I don’t mean strategy, plotter/pantser, etc. But everyone has a different level of passion, different focuses, and especially h…[Read more]

Okay so I’ve been working on a lovely story which isn’t lovely but whatever which (both annoyingly and thrillingly) keeps evolving to the point where I’ve changed the plot at least twenty times. I would definitely not share a lot of what happens here, because there is killing and abuse in it. However, I think a snippet of this one scene would be…[Read more]

I have a snippet of a scene from a contemporary story I’ve been working on recently. This scene sort of just flowed and I’m loving the sibling relationship between River (the MC) and her brother Blaze. I haven’t shared anything from this WIP before because it’s still very new, and quite honestly, I started it without having any idea of what the…[Read more]

Oh and quick question, how is Navin pronounced?
Fynn
“Just down this way.” Fynn led the way with long strides, but slowed down when Navin didn’t walk as fast. They fell into an awkward silence that Fynn racked his brain for a way to break. “So, you going to the dance tomorrow…[Read more]

Hello!

Thanks!
I did make an intro post, but Wyoh ate it 😠

Hi!
So, for once it’s not a singular character, since Alpha is behaving (for once), Igua is being nice an quiet, and all the rest aren’t starting any squabbles, except Krogen and Derringo ofc. I never can escape those two.
This time it’s an entire group.
Recently I noticed a lot of my MC’s have an underlining feature that is the same, even some…[Read more]

@theducktatorUnfortunately, where I live in PA, most of the “mountains” are just really big hills lol. But my family has been going up to New Hampshire every summer for the past couple years. In my opinion, those are the best mountains east of the Mississippi. I’ve been to the Blue Ridge mountains, too, and they’re pretty, but they still don’t…[Read more]

I feel like preachiness is something that can be fixed when you’re editing. At least for the most part. I wouldn’t worry about it now. You keep doing your own thing for now. 😉 One day…[Read more]

I haven’t heard much of your story, but if you feel that way, you can just write anything you like right now and edit the unnecessary stuff out later. In other words… don’t beat yourself up 🙂 Theme intensity is a spectrum, and some stories get away with so much more than others!

Oh no!! What makes you think that? From what I’ve read and heard about your story, I think it’s fine.
