Vanna replied to the topic You know you are a writer when… in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 2 months ago

Vanna replied to the topic Chapter Titles in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 7 months ago
I’m not finished with my current WIP yet so I’m just sticking with numbers for now. But provided they’re not spoiling anything (such as mentioning a death or a betrayal) I like chapter titles. They can build anticipation and make it easier for me to find my place if I loose it or to reread a favorite section. I can just look for the title that…[Read more]

Vanna replied to the topic Love Triangles— what the Classical Authors knew that we don't. in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 10 months ago
*squees* So I know I haven’t been on here in ages, but this topic really sparked my interest. I read somewhere (can’t remember where) that a good love triangle should reflect two different directions the plot and/or character development could take.

Vanna replied to the topic Tragedy Befalls All Great Writers in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago
@hannah-c It’s a note taking program. You write notes and organize them into “notebooks”. You can also add in pictures and link, and share notes with other Evernote users. The really neat part is that it saves them in something like ICloud, so you can access them anywhere. I can edit on my phone and have the changes appear on my computer. The…[Read more]

*shudder* This is why I use Evernote. I also keep addition copies of my chapters in Word on my computer.

@kate-flournoy Thanks! I’ve never written in present tense before, so that was interesting. And forgive my ignorance, but who’s Cobalt?

Lincoln’s hand reaches out and brushes a loose strand of Alexia’s hair behind her ear. She leans forward, and their mouths draw close-
“No way!” shouts Alexia.
Wait. I didn’t write that.
I lean back in my seat and stare at the screen. Yep. Still there. Okay, don’t…[Read more]

Why do babies need a party anyway? thought Hecta, as she glared at the half-written invitation before her. It’s not like they can enjoy it.
She sighed and picked up her quill. Oh well. If the king and queen wanted to host an elaborate party for the newly-born Princess Aurora, then it was her duty as a loyal scribe to ensure all the i…[Read more]
