@daeus Awww.
*sigh*
Okay. I guess I’ll…mmmm….which should I do, you tell me cause I can’t decide.
1. Write in my novel
2. Write something else
3. Edit finished book
4. Story planning

@daeus Okay. I’ll spend that time doing some procrastinating. Tag me when you’re back. 😀

@daeus Wait for me!

@That_Writer_Girl_99 Aw, really? I’m glad to hear that. 😀 My pleasure.

@Cloudy just want to let you know I haven’t abandoned you; I’m going through the story bit by bit and formulating thoughts and such. 😉

@That_Writer_Girl_99 meh. Logic. Who cares about logic? 😛

Forget the logic for a sec. What is the most natural emotional course for the characters? Go wild. Not even kidding.
And one question that might give you some answers— what is the Warden going to do with Blake? What are they saying/doing, locked up in that office together?

*pulls out sword pen and sticks it behind her ear* How can I help?

@That_Writer_Girl_99

Oooooh, I like it!

There is one thing that could use tweaking though. Both Kara and Matthias seem a little scattered and unfocused as to their emotional state. Now they’re supposed to be; I know. They’re both confused. But the reader shouldn’t be. It’s not that both of them shouldn’t be struggling with several different emotions at once, but that…[Read more]

@that_writer_Girl_99 Have fun! And yes, I am impressed anyway. I can hardly sing, though I’m trying to learn.
@winter-rose *raises hands* I plead not guilty!
I’d love to stay longer, but I’ve to eat and get ready for guitar lessons.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 don’t think so. Heading over there now.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 *appears in a poof of elvish stardust**adjusts Jedi robes* You wanted to talk about chapter seven?

@that_writer_girl_99 Nice! Do you know what you’re singing?
@winter-rose Sorry. This time it was an accident though. I sneezed.

@That_writer_girl_99 Ooh! Where ya’ going? Or is that secret dragon confidential stuff? 😀

@that_writer_girl_99 Hello!

@hope Another thing I would be careful to watch out for with the Blackened Rose, Crown, Seal ones is that they sound pretty dark. I know they probably aren’t, but at a first glance, I would be extremely wary to read them, I might not in the first place. However, if you included the themes of light instead, then I think I would be more inclined (as…[Read more]

Seconding what everyone else said. There was some great advice in this thread. Also a number of things I was guilty of, like that proper noun thing. =P Thanks for doing this!

@jane-maree Still, do you have a favorite?

@kate-flournoy I thought you’d like those ones. They’d help me in cover ideas too.

@dragon-snapper Hmmm, yes. But this title won’t be on the same page as the other titles and the rose is a pretty important element. There might be a little repetition, but I don’t think it’s enough to be jarring.

Thanks for all your help, everyone! I’ll post a few…[Read more]
