@hope Got it. Those story points make sense then.

With regards to the other question, I do agree that there are additional challenges when you don’t have physical conflicts like that. I think some of that will require a lot more deep-POV where you’re getting into the character’s head and really ferreting our his/her thoughts and where he/she is…[Read more]

@audrey-caylin Got it. Sounds like this is one of those scenes that’s going to be a bit trickier to weave one of your themes into. Foreshadowing can be a great technique, though, so if you use it to foreshadow how her Experiments might fail, that could be a great way of weaving it in.

I’m not planning to, @anne-of-lothlorien . It sounds interesting, though. 🙂

@I-j-Anderson First off….WOWOWOWOWOWOWW!!! You are good at drawing people. *runs off and decides to start practicing*

@Daeus *grins* Thanks…

And those sound absolutely adorable. I want one.

And I have easily a bazilliondy characters (not exaggerating), so if for whatever reason that doesn’t work, I can offer you more. 😛

@I-J-Anderson … did… did I understand this correctly? You want descriptions of characters so maybe they can inspire you and other ‘stuck’ artists to draw a portrait of them?

This is… I like this. This is unusual. But really cool.

Umkay… let me see. *scratches head* Assuming I’ve understood this correctly… have a character.

Well, I think I’m going to stop now. I wrote 500 or so words, which I am not too happy with. Whether or not I’ll keep it is debatable, but it was an idea on paper. Thanks for joining me!

@graciegirl 1,2,3. You’re in!

@overcomer @winter-rose @daeus @r-j-wordsmith @northerner @jess @kate-flournoy @ethryndal @graciegirl @Audrey-caylin I’ll be writing/planning/brainstorming if anyone wants to join me.

I’m praying, @mark-kamibaya . I’m so sorry for your loss! 🙁

@Ethryndal Well it’s not your fault except that you’re such an awesome person I can’t help wanting to follow your blog!
Heeeey, yeah, there’s that message. 😉
Well, I think there are only two—its and it’s. I think there’s a rule breaker (hate those things)—‘it’s’ is only for ‘it is’, and ‘its’ is for when something belongs to it. With a…[Read more]

@perfectfifths Haha! Well, I just realized that it is, but the one I’m quoting is from another movie not Ratatoullie.

@ethryndal Well, my computer’s about dead, so I’m going to take a break now. I wrote 1476 words and tried planning out a positive character arc…however, that turned out to be harder than I thought…any tips on that?

@ethryndal @winter-rose I wouldn’t say pals, but we both went to chair-melting school. He’s a rogue dragon.
Gabrielle: coolio. See ya round!
Ethryndal, I am still going.

@winter-rose Well, my old pal Smaug took a mountain from the dwarves. Shall we go on an unexpected journey and tell him to give it back?
