MineralizedWritings replied to the topic Did any book influence your current WIP? in the forum Book Discussions 3 years, 11 months ago
I keep hearing about green ember! I need to read it one day. I like it when books show that there’s something better at the end of the protagonists struggle, it’s part of what makes me keep reading. 🙂
At the time, I didn’t really see all the similarities, I mean, the world was so different, and even the plot points and e…

Ok, so I’m just making this topic because I love talking about how other people’s writing influences our own.
I was talking to a friend of mine awhile ago about how heavily influenced my writing is by books, and she said once she heard somebody say something along the lines of, “Creativity ins’t made in a vacuum.” so true lol
It’s happened to me…[Read more]

I like your story idea!
Thanks!😀
Is there anything wrong with the culture apart from the separation of East and West?
Well they absolutely hate each other 🤣 kinda a problem. The best I can explain it is like this: just using American politics for example (this is not set in America, just an example.) Imagine democrats and republicans…[Read more]

I agree with @e-m-trepke that it’s important for your MCs to have clear motivations.
Ok, thanks that really helps. I need to figure that out.
There’s this other Youtube writer called Abbie Emmons. I highly recommend binge-watching her videos. They’re super fun to watch! She emphasizes character development and teaches you how to ap…

Thanks! @folith-feolin
what are the ages of your MCs:
Lesli-18Â Â Tauren~16 (might change that by a year)Â Keiryn (Lesli’s step-brother)-16
what are the other bunkers besides east and west like
Great question but you’know they just never come into play. The story is focused almost entirely on the west until as Tauren is going up the maze of tu…[Read more]

OK, so thanks for checking out this topic.. any advice/ideas are welcome!
I’m a pretty inexperienced writer, and my story is currently being written out of order. I know the main climactic points, a kinda sweet scene I want (Will be sweet if the build-up is done properly otherwise…😅) and I wrote a scene of my mc crying that I’ll throw in there…[Read more]

Discovering new characters is so much fun XP
Thanks! Although I can’t take credit, I wanted him to have a pet, the pigeon was my sisters idea.
I love albatrosses 😃
Wow.. capybara…Â What a literal mood 😂

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic Writing growth ruts and what to do about them in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 11 months ago
That’s interesting! I don’t think I have anything much meaningful to contribute here because I have not even come close to plateauing (Because I haven’t written much), but I’ve totally noticed that with other authors.
I used to love this book series “The city of ember”, but only the first book of the series really feels, alive.…[Read more]

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic Kyo! in the forum Start HERE 3 years, 11 months ago
Teiren sounds interesting! If that’s pronounced how I think it is, his name might rhyhm with my character Kieryn lol.
I haven’t heard many of elevation worships songs, but I see definitely see their name come up on the radio a lot.
I might have to check our spark-notes, sounds interesting!
Great theme chioce too 🙂

Hello and welcome to KP @folith-feolin !
My name is Aubrey, I’m a HS junior 😀
Little bit about myself: My current WIP is a dystopian fiction, hoping to turn it into a multi part graphic novel. I have a few hobbies, mainly drawing, speedcubing, playing my clarinet, and of course, writing.
You and your brother’s WIP sounds interesting… what an…[Read more]

Here’s a random drawing of my character Tauren, I’ve had a really hard time drawing him how I imagine him for some reason 😭😭 It’s a struggle and his face doesn’t look quite right here. I think It’s the closest I’ve gotten to how he actually looks in my mind though. His skin isn’t suppose to be quite this tan, I just haven’t gotten the hang of the…[Read more]

World-building is so much fun!😆 How far into that do you like to go? Like what the world is currently like, or into it’s history?

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic What do you love most about your current WIP? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 11 months ago
Love that! I’m hoping to add some good themes to my WIP, I have experienced the sheer satisfaction of watching a theme come to fruition in fiction, and would love to inflict my readers with the same lol
Forgiveness is a great one to focus on too.😀

Lol great question!
The characters. My current WIP is also my first WIP. And it’s just weird to discover what traits I give my characters as I go. My main character (Tauren) Is a lot like myself. He gets so nervous at time it causes physical effects, Emotionally kinda weak but wishes he were stronger in that area, wants to be there…[Read more]

Lol I’m so the same! My art is a mish-mash of other peoples styles with my own flare on it 😆
I’d say my main inspritation would be Huruichi Furadate (I totally butchered his name) without his manga series Haikyuu I wouldn’t be able to draw legs, noses, a jawline that doesn’t look weird (kinda specific lol), and necks that aren’t…[Read more]
