(and I may or may not have almost made Janessa cry…heh…heh..)
Lol is that gonna become one of your writing goals now?
Anyway I don’t fully remember the first chapter you posted… do you know which page that’s posted on so I can go re-read it?

Not that this RP is moving very much at all right now… but I’m just giving you a heads-up that I won’t be on KP much, if at all, this week. I’m taking a break from electronics, but I’ll be back on Sunday or Monday next week.

Thanks for the book recs! I will definitely be looking into them! The American Revolution is one of my favorite time periods to study.

Okay…so something about this makes me kind of panic a little…because I don’t feel the same way. Like is there something wrong with me? Should I want to prove myself? Because right now I’m just too scared to even try to think about being published by a traditional publisher…cuz I’m worried that I have nothing to prove, becaus…

I don’t remember that RP. What happened?

Kari
Kari continued carefully detaching the spiderwebs from Silas and Carrie as Carrie used her robotic arms to repeatedly slam Jeptune (that’s the correct name, right?) against the ground.
“There, I think that’s the last of the webs,” Kari said, flinging another sticky strand to the ground.
“Thanks,” Silas…[Read more]

Kari is currently with Carrie and Silas and I don’t know what else to do until something else happens.

Sorry Janessa for hijacking your topic 🤣
It’s all good! I don’t mind if there’s conversation on here because I don’t really have anything else to post at the moment anyway lol. Plus I contributed XD

Trailblazer replied to the topic How many stories/books have you written? in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year ago
Completed stories or all the stories I’ve started? Because those are two different lists lol.
Most of my stories (I call them that because most of them aren’t finished yet and book sounds like a term for something that’s finished) are either contemporary fiction or historical fiction. I have a couple mysteries thrown in…[Read more]

Don’t beat yourself up over it! I struggle to convey things a lot, too, and I also am not very familiar with publishing since I haven’t looked into that, so my lack of understanding in that area probably contributed to the confusion.
Right now I’m just barely holding all my emotions together with my WIP…I am really really unh…

@whalekeeper @savannah_grace2009
I think you’ve got a good point there, too. While self-publishing is easier, and I would probably take that route if I was only intending for a smaller audience to read my book (say, family and friends who are taking more of an interest in it), I also want to know that my writing is good quality, and I don’t want…[Read more]

What if Henry has a friend who’s a Redcoat? You could bring out the strife and yet friendship on the two sides of war.
Ooh that’s an interesting idea! I’ll have to think about that.

Trailblazer replied to the topic Hello! in the forum Start HERE 1 year ago
Welcome to KP! I’m Janessa, aka Trailblazer, and I write a lot of contemporary/historical fiction, as well as a little bit of mystery. I also enjoy photography and hiking!
A couple questions for you:
-What is your favorite genre to read?
-What is your favorite book or series?
-Do you have any writing projects you’re…[Read more]

Trailblazer replied to the topic Revolutionary War story idea in the forum Historical 1 year ago
I’m not really sure how you want your story to go…but I would really recommend developing your characters before any plotting! Figure out their character arcs and internal conflicts. (Abbie Emmons on YouTube really helped me learn why internal conflicts matter! But if you do watch her videos…prepare to be overwhelmed! XD thoug…

Ok, I know I already have too many WIP’s, but I had another idea I’ve been working on this week. I’ve been doing a crazy amount of research for this one and haven’t started any writing yet, which is a bit unusual for me because usually I start writing and research what I need to know as I go. (Probably not the best method, but that’s how I roll…[Read more]

I haven’t thought about it in depth, but from first glance, I don’t have a problem with it either. I guess it would depend also on how he was created. Did they take human DNA to create him? If that’s the case, then I think he would have a soul just like any other person, because the rest of us are created with human DNA, even though the process of…[Read more]

He was made from mixed DNA, to give him the traits Grathmere wanted. I believe most likely, he was made the weird 3D printer way at first, and developed from there.
He was actually interestingly enough, not made to have any moral compass. He was supposed to be a heartless assassin that did what Grathmere wished. He’d have limited free will, but…[Read more]

That sucks that one medication causes another ailment- you’d think there should be some sort of medication for you that would improve things instead of making problems worse.
It’s sort of sad, because Smarties used to be my favorite candy, until I started using them to bring up my blood sugar. They hit my system faster, which is why I…[Read more]
