That’s alright, KP sometimes takes the line breakers out of posts and the paragraphs get joined, (it’s happened to me several times, but I’m not sure what causes it).
Number one, -I consider this the most important part of my thoughts on this- I loved your poem! Especially where the narrator refuses to put the mirror away and…[Read more]

Faith Q. started the topic Having Voice/Style Problems…. Help Needed! Desperately! in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 years, 4 months ago
Hey, I’m not sure if this is supposed to go in this forum, but I’ll give it a whirl….
I’ve having trouble writing a nine-year-old girl’s voice in a secondary WIP I’ve been thinking about. The style is supposed to be very humorous (think The Best Christmas Pageant Ever) while still retaining a child’s voice (think June Bug by Chris Fabry). I’m p…[Read more]

Faith Q. replied to the topic In Search of Book Recommendations in the forum Book Discussions 5 years, 4 months ago
Okay, I understand this might not be helpful and you probably already have a ton to read… but here are my suggestions!
First, I agree with The Hidden Hand, The Viking Quest, and honestly a ton more on here…
First, nonfiction. I’ll warn you, though, I am a great lover of autobiographies and biographies, so this list might get extensive.   …[Read more]

Hi, @scripter-of-kingdoms! *clears throat*… do I have permission to call you Kads?
I have to say… I agree! I love my name (and I’m not biased, of course!) 🙂 And Grace is beautiful too! Seriously, I’m not just saying that. I love the name Grace.
Oh, interesting! Is it difficult learning Japanese and Korean at once? How similar are they?
I’d…[Read more]

And @joelle-stone, 660 words is amazing! I don’t know if I’ve ever gotten that much in one shot, let along editing… Good job!

valtmy replied to the topic Themes for mystery/thriller? in the forum Mystery 5 years, 5 months ago
I think the right theme would emerge once you have a general idea of the characters and how the plot should go. For a short story, perhaps you might want to avoid some of the bigger themes which would require an entire novel to do justice (pun intended).
Since your story is to be a mystery/thriller, one idea that came to me is to…[Read more]

valtmy replied to the topic What's your favorite type of villain? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 5 months ago
Oh yes I love it when the antagonist and protagonist mirror each other thematically.
I like unexpected villains (e.g. killer being a child or sweet old lady). I’m also fascinated by villains that have unique and interesting motivations because the power-hungry, petty-jealous-rivalry, s…[Read more]

Yes, boredom is definitely a privilege. Sounds weird, I know, but it’s true… how old are your siblings? *high fives back* 🙂 I don’t really know what kinds of poetry there are. Umm… poetry that rhymes? 😛 I don’t usually write free-form poetry. Life must have structure!!!!!!!!! *clears throat and straightens dress* Well, anyway.…[Read more]

Your writing is really, really good! I enjoyed the fast pace. Ember and her brother are certainly very likeable, and the first person perspective is very clear. But I think I agree with @jodi-maile. You may need to pause a bit more a reflect on what’s going on in Ember’s head instead of focusing entirely on external things. Besides…[Read more]
