Yeah, I’ve seen it, but I’ve been busy lately and haven’t gotten to it yet. 😅 I’ll try my best to get the next RP written today. 🙃 (And I still haven’t read your WIP yet. 😭 I’m so sorryyy. I’mma do that today too.)

Allison started the topic Help with a title? in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 8 months ago
(I will warn you now that some of the ideas and topics of my book are a little frightening)
Alright! Ever since I finished the rough draft of my WIP I realized that I dont have the most important part. The title. People will ask me all the time, “Whats it called?” And I have to say I dont know 🙂 Lol! I am struggling to come up with a name so if…[Read more]

Esther replied to the topic Revolutionary War story idea in the forum Historical 2 years, 8 months ago
Yes! That is basically what I was saying XD
Ok I’m glad I got that right XD
Wow, we’re totally different people…haha! I am always so insecure and scared I’ll hurt someone’s feelings or they’ll take it the wrong way!! And you’re good (:
Hey, that’s not a bad trait to have. 😉
I was reading an interview with a writer, and she…

Trailblazer replied to the topic Revolutionary War story idea in the forum Historical 2 years, 8 months ago
Okay…so something about this makes me kind of panic a little…because I don’t feel the same way. Like is there something wrong with me? Should I want to prove myself? Because right now I’m just too scared to even try to think about being published by a traditional publisher…cuz I’m worried that I have nothing to prove, becaus…

It’s been a while since we RPed in our group. I think I might have gone last, but I can’t remember who goes after me.

Hi! Thank you!!
Nice to meet you!! I write fantasy and sci-fi as well, but I also write contemporary every once in a while. Currently I’m writing three projects – one fantasy, one sci-fi, and one contemporary lol.
Can’t wait to see you around!!

@savannah_grace2009 @whalekeeper @trailblazer
Oh… oops. XD I didn’t know this would start a whole discussion. But that’s okay! It’s really interesting to hear y’all’s opinions.
I wasn’t necessarily trying to say that publishers aren’t looking for a good book. I’m just saying that publishers can be really harsh with what they accept and what t…

Hey, my current novel is 26k too! lol

Trailblazer replied to the topic Revolutionary War story idea in the forum Historical 2 years, 8 months ago
Don’t beat yourself up over it! I struggle to convey things a lot, too, and I also am not very familiar with publishing since I haven’t looked into that, so my lack of understanding in that area probably contributed to the confusion.
Right now I’m just barely holding all my emotions together with my WIP…I am really really unh…

@whalekeeper @savannah_grace2009
I think you’ve got a good point there, too. While self-publishing is easier, and I would probably take that route if I was only intending for a smaller audience to read my book (say, family and friends who are taking more of an interest in it), I also want to know that my writing is good quality, and I don’t want…[Read more]

Enid replied to the topic Revolutionary War story idea in the forum Historical 2 years, 8 months ago
*Busts into the conversation* 😂
I think Savannah, you have a point that publishers are looking for marketable material. But Esther has a good point of view, that publishers are also looking for well-written material to a degree, because readers like good writing, and therefore good writing will sell. I’m not say…[Read more]

@esther-c @savannah_grace2009 Hey! I’m really interested in Abbie Emmons after seeing you guys mention her. I’m going to check out her channel, and maybe her book 100 days of sunlight. Have either of you read it?

Trailblazer replied to the topic Revolutionary War story idea in the forum Historical 2 years, 8 months ago
I’m not really sure how you want your story to go…but I would really recommend developing your characters before any plotting! Figure out their character arcs and internal conflicts. (Abbie Emmons on YouTube really helped me learn why internal conflicts matter! But if you do watch her videos…prepare to be overwhelmed! XD thoug…

“That’s really nice to hear. We know a few people whose experiences are similar to ours, like Callista and her family. Except,” his gaze drifted over to her, “she’s had a much harder time of it than me. In fact,” he tilted his head, “I’m not sure how she does it. She’s been through so much, yet when someone else is in…[Read more]

Wow. You (and your sister) are amazing at building worlds!
Thanks! As a disclaimer, this is by far my most unique world.
Yeah, characters definitely drive the plot forward, which is why it’s such a problem that most of them are underdeveloped. Those are good points about internal conflict too.
Anyway, you also said you d…

Esther replied to the topic Revolutionary War story idea in the forum Historical 2 years, 8 months ago
Oh my goodness so I just watched one of her videos on why she chose to indie publish her book, and she claimed she wasn’t bashing traditional publishing but… you can tell she’ll never traditionally publish any of her books. 🫤😂 And she was saying that some people will give their manuscript to a publishing company, get rejec…[Read more]

Ruth replied to the topic The Ildin Saga in the forum Novel Critique Requests 2 years, 8 months ago
Anyway, you also said you don’t put Nedan in RP’s because he’s underdeveloped. I actually think the purpose of role plays is actually to develop your character. I have put many characters that aren’t developed in role plays and it helps me to hear their voice and learn more about them, just from writing them outside…

I drafted the song again, not sure if i really like it yet, but it’s a step closer than yesterday.
Life is a waking nightmare,
Day after day, I roll along without you
Night is a dagger of pain because you are there
Haunting my dreams like some old ghost,

Oh awesome!! She can have some really helpful stuff, but take it all with a grain of salt, because I feel like not everything she says works for every writer. (Like outlining your entire novel before writing it). But yeah, super helpful stuff. 😊
I’ve been wanting to, but haven’t gotten the chance yet. She has a sequel to that and I believe it’…[Read more]
