@kathleenramm I basically procrastinate it a lot and work on something else until the impending deadline forces me to write. It’s a recurring cycle. It’s very painful.

@writerlexi1216 @daisy-torres Ah, yeah, it’s a Japanese site used for making icons and such. It’s all in Japanese and does have it’s, um, share of weird stuff, but most of it is pretty awesome.

@godlyfantasy12 Yo, those two ideas both sound awesome! You should totally go for them!
As for me, I’ve had too many story ideas that are half-baked which I’ve written beginnings to…most for short stories or novellas. I’m swamped with novel/web serial ideas right now, so I can only pick and choose a couple of ideas to work on.
One is a short…[Read more]

Ooh I like it! 😍 Since I haven’t written much fantasy, I’ll leave that up to others. But awesome job! -
Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Hi! in the forum Start HERE 3 years, 4 months ago
Those genres are all really fun! Do you usually write short stories with them or longer-length projects?
Your WIP sounds quite interesting! What stage are you at with it right now?
Vanilla ice cream is indeed supreme. As well as cheesecake.
Eyy, pineapple on pizza gang!

SeekJustice replied to the topic Using a Pen Name: Yay or Nay? in the forum Publishing & Platform 3 years, 4 months ago
I think, privacy reasons aside, I would only go for a pen name to disguise the fact that I was a woman, but as a couple of other people have said, that’s less of an issue than it used to be. For example, if I was to write YA that’s a female dominated area of publishing and being labeled as a Chelsea wouldn’t be a bad thing at all.…[Read more]

SeekJustice replied to the topic Fantasy Kingdom Names in the forum Fantasy 3 years, 4 months ago
My secret is…that I don’t. I literally don’t, if I can help it *hides in shame*. I’m still trying to think of a name for the city in the last book I drafted. The book I’m currently writing has absolutely no names. The fantasy novel before last has a world literally called the Dreamland (though this has a meaning and significance…[Read more]

@ariel-f I remember one of my favorite manga artists saying that if the story he’s writing doesn’t surprise him, then he stops writing it. And I am always surprised and astounded by his work. Truly wise words.
To be honest, I struggle with this a lot. I honestly really dislike the characters I made back when I started writing (well, not dislike,…[Read more]

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Using a Pen Name: Yay or Nay? in the forum Publishing & Platform 3 years, 4 months ago
@writerlexi1216 I believe in using a pen name, as I am right now. I just do it for privacy reasons, as this name is still as hard to pronounce as my previous name. (Not me never saying this name out loud, haha….)
Anyways, I think that A.M. Williams sounds really cool and elegant! A.M. reminds me of the morning.

@ariel-f A lot of the time I try to put myself in the character’s shoes, or really get in their head. If I was that character, how would I feel if [fill in the blank] happened to me? Getting really deep into their internal conflict, backstories, lies they believe, their values, etc. really helps them come alive and connects them to both author and…[Read more]
