OK thanks for agreeing to help!

My first three chapters are now ready for your examination and dissection. You can send a request through the link I placed in my first post (Google sign-in is required) and I’ll grant you guys the access.

@ariel-ashira

It is a political satire/romance novel parody starring a celebrity queen. 😉

@ariel-ashira

I’m working on my WIP. Finally done with the second chapter and finishing up with the third 😀

@ariel-ashira

I’m on now.

@jenwriter17

Froppy’s real name is Asui Tsuyu. She’s awesome and I love her too. 🙂

@rochellaine

Hey, I don’t think I have seen this classified Kapeefer document! Shouldn’t I be granted access too? *pouts*

@dragon-snapper

Yep I took a look at the journey plan I was supposed to do to up my writing level and was like, “Nope!” so I ran away.

@jenwriter17

Glad you liked it! Haha I don’t think I have a favourite character because it’s hard to choose… maybe Kirishima?

@rochellaine

Welcome back! I just went back to read what I have written so far…[Read more]

@jenwriter17

Yep that was me! 🙂

@rochellaine

See you!

@dragon-snapper

Welcome back!

Yeah, I tried getting into Story Embers too but it was overwhelming because there seemed to be new people coming in every day before I could even get comfortable with those who were already there.

@rochellaine

In terms of word count, it is not since my first chapter is much shorter than the rest. In terms of plot progression and engagement… 😕

I am getting impatient and wanting to move on to the good parts so I am struggling with getting through all the necessary set-up.

@rochellaine

Hey, I’m back. 😀

@rochellaine

No problem, it’s fine. I need to keep my focus on writing anyway, don’t I? 😉

@rochellaine

*bows*

This is a most tremendous honour for a humbly aspiring writer as me.

@rochellaine

Doesn’t mean it doesn’t have to make some kind of sense. Slack-jawed confusion is not necessarily the reaction I am going for. 😀

@ariel-ashira

Hello!

@rochellaine

Yeah, I’ve been waiting for Chara and her uncle to get out of that situation for so long! 😂

Haha, yes, the second has to stay the second. I can’t exactly upload my first and third chapters and leave my beta readers scratching their heads, can I?

@rochellaine

I am *sigh* working on the first few chapters of my WIP. It is frustrating because I do want to get some betas soon (since it’s a comedy, I really do need to get objective opinions on whether the humour is working before I proceed any further) but I can’t exactly do that right now. My first chapter is done, my third chapter is……[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’m writing now!

*gives out cinnamon rolls*

So happy to have our prime minister vouch for me 😛

@seekjustice

@rochellaine

I go off for 2 weeks and return only to find a war?? 😦

Um… just to let our new queen and prime minister know: I’m not a traitor. I do have a Story Embers account but it has not been used much. In fact I haven’t been on either site since I’ve been travelling (please don’t hurt me).

@rochellaine

I understand that feeling. It’s so easy for us writers to become besotted, isn’t it? 😉

I guess the way I love my characters stems from my desire to maintain objectivity in my writing. As evil overlordish as this sounds, my characters are, ultimately, tools. Since I personally know so much about my characters, it is easy for me to…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Sorry for vanishing again but that’s what happens when I write in the dead of the night. Hope you enjoyed yourself watching Newsies! I’ll put my answers to your questions here so that you can see them when you return.

If you are finding your bridge sections boring, chances are your readers will as well. Reconsider the necessity of…[Read more]
