I will NEVER start a book without a specific goal in mind. I had the end before I had the beginning. There is a certain amount of graphing that I do before every story, and you can be sure that all things will tie into the end of this book, or the plot of the next. I most certainly did outline my book. I’m sorry if you can’t see…

HOW DO YOU DO THAT?!??!?!

Wow it’s like you can read my mind lol!

Anyways….

@ellette-giselle

I totally agree with what Whaley said.

The time jumps just take away so much from the story (even at the beginning where Aaron and Turin were working together) and it makes me lose interest. You do great at describing outside of the…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 @ellette-giselle
I can try XD
I think the focus needs to be waaay deeper. The writing is very much outside the characters’ perspective, and only tells the bare points of the story. So the orphanage endeavor feels random.
To compare it to something, the perspective is like a bird high in the sky. Everything below looks like doll…[Read more]

Guys we should bring this back XD XD XD

ISN’T THAT CRAZY?!?!

SARA ACTUALLY WROTE FOR ONCE IN HER LIFE

Bwahahaha you guys aren’t going to believe what just happened

@ellette-giselle

Just popping in because I’m bored, lol!

I kinda agree with Whaley. The story just doesn’t seem like it’s going towards a specific goal…like the events seem a bit random and idk how to describe it but it’s like your story’s missing something but it frustrates me because I don’t know what exactly I’m missing, just that something…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I’ve already written the whole book.

Oh cool, this is a plenty-of-work-already-done thing.

why do you ask?

I was asking because I’m not sure what direction the story is taking. What should the reader hope to happen next? Both in Aaron’s arc and in the outward plot? – A sense of where this all leads. Because the orphanage plot w…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Are you using a normal arc structure/your own structure based off what you know about arcs? Or just thinking through the arc as you write?

@ellette-giselle

Have you outlined LTBL?

@keilah-h

😊 Thanks. Yeah, they definitely need some development. I can’t wait to see how all three of them react in a situation like this and with each other.

@keilah-h

Awesome!

I kinda feel bad for dumping three new characters on y’all. 🤭

Just gonna share the link to my brain dump so y’all can see their face claims:

@theshadow @freed_and_redeemed @keilah-h @grcr @theducktator

M’kay! I’ve decided on another character duo! (Actually three characters, but I’m only gonna write from the POV of two of them) I need practice writing these guys since I don’t normally do first person, but their novel is going to be completely in first!

So! Without further ado….…[Read more]

Here are some of the worst part of my old duck story draft. The worst thing is, I actually showed it to my arch-nemesis thinking it was good!!! I was thirteen. I should have known better.😬

“I know who this is!” she exclaimed. “It’s the rebel leader that we call The Dope! He held a meeting last night, which I attended as Arielle Teal. I’ve found o…
