Chapter 4
Dylan stopped abruptly, “Where’s the path?”
“What do you mean ‘where’s the path’?” Olivia shoved past Elina and Jack, gazing out ahead. A seemingly endless sea of trees met her.“Oh, great, nic…[Read more]

Hmm, well I guess in the woods around Rosen, I don’t think so. The woods are massive, and nothing really lives there. Besides, a creature stalking about doesn’t help, and something that could take a town could probably pick me off pretty quickly (wish I could say more but that would be spoilers).
As for Terre, which is where my…[Read more]

If you’ve ever read White Fang, there’s one part in the beginning where this guy knows he’s going to be eaten by wolves, and as he’s attempting to survive despite them, he’s described as appreciating his body a lot more than he ever did before. For instance, he begins studying his hand and the way it’s made, at the intricacies of each print…[Read more]

Those are great ideas, thank you so much!! This is spurring a lot of ideas now, thanks.
Understandable. Contemporary writing is kind of like writing set in the present or close to it, and are mainly based in reality.
Thank you for the suggestions, I’ll check them out! Okay, compelling characters seem…[Read more]

Liking the story so far, it’s good. I second Trailblazer’s suggestions though, as more description would draw the reader in more.

@esther-c (why didn’t I take you before, you literally write contemporary!!)
First of all, make sure you’re reading contemporary!!! Especially within the little genres that you want to focus on.
Ooh, okay that’s a good idea. I’ll try that, do you have any book suggestions?
I previously read a YA novel that took place in the 80s and am current…

Hm, okay I’ll take those into account. I would share details about the stories in mind but they’re both in the very, very early stages of development (aka I have one or two ideas for each and that’s about it 😅).
So far, for the first one I want it to be set in the summer or fall, and be about two high schoolers sending paper airpl…[Read more]

Hello, how’s everyone today?
So, I’ve got two ideas for separate contemporary novels and was wondering if any of you have written contemporary. The two I have in mind are set during summer, and I’m not really sure how to make them interesting. I want something akin to The Penderwicks and have them be wholesome, sweet, and not too terribly heavy…[Read more]
