Oooo! I love her!!! You have such a good touch when it comes to aesthetics!
Haha, the book I just tagged you two on is certainly a glorifying God in dark topics………….

Hopes I’m not shoving into a conversation too much*
Yes…I actually stayed up til 11pm last night to write down a character scene with two of my guys…I know…I woke up really late, but I wanted to write that scene down before I forgot it! Does that happen to you?
*Chokes on my tea*
11 pm is late? Gracious, I must be an insomniac or something. I’m d…[Read more]

The blow had sent him tumbling to the pavement, a sudden pool of water softening his landing. The sprite slowly picked himself up and dusted the droplets off. His shoulders relaxed as the puddle evaporated back into vapor.
The towering figure was still there along with…too many other people. A darker blue flush crept up the…[Read more]

Hi, I don’t believe I’ve talked to you in what feels like ages 😂
I wish I could be of advice but uh I haven’t touched my draft in months?? Ikr???
I did at some point stop writing scenes I wasn’t interested in and that kinda helped. Like idk, I watch some anime that just skips the boring stuff. A great example of this is I was…[Read more]

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic How do you world build? in the forum General Writing Discussions 1 year, 7 months ago
Ooh ty for the tag! I looove world building, and I guess I take a lot of inspiration from different places, then try to connect the general ideas with reasons for them being if that makes sense. Like I might have the idea of a world with 5 different nations, I might want to have a magic system everyone can use, and have all of the…[Read more]

Esther posted an update 1 year, 7 months ago
Ok, I’m tagging a lot of people for this, but don’t feel obligated to reply.
So, I’ve gotten stuck in my current WIP, but as I work through that slowly, I want to return to an older WIP that I worked on over the summer and really want to refine. It’s only in a first draft, but I’d like to have a critique partner for it.
The type of critique…[Read more]-
Actually, I’mma remake the moodboards, hehehe. So they shall be revealed later this week. :PP
-
I replied but didn’t tag you. Not sure if you got it.
-

I would be willing to try and help with this. You know my views on Romance are rather different than norm, and I believe highschool romantic relationships aren’t healthy. But I’m willing to give it a shot.
I also do edit. I’m not a line-by-line editor, but I have worked as a plot/character/story editor before.
We do have different beliefs on…[Read more]-
I appreciate the offer!! Truly!
But like you said, we might not work super well together because of our different viewpoints. So yeah, right now I’d say no, but I will keep you in mind! :))-
No problem! I can be your last resort if no one else offers. 😉
-
Sounds good. 😉 Let me know if you want to be tagged when I post the chapters on here some time! :))
-
-
-
-
Mm. Sounds interesting, but I’m totally unqualified. I don’t think I’d be able to help much… Sorry… 😅😑
-
Hey no worries! 🤗
-
-
I’m sorry, I don’t think I can help you 🙁
-
That’s totally fine, girl! ☺️
-
-
I’m definitely interested in reading your novel, but I’ve read almost no YA, so I wouldn’t be much help.
-
No worries! I’ll be sure to tag you tho when I start sharing it on here!!
-
Awesome! 🙂
-
-
-
@esther-c I would love to help! This went into my spam for some reason, so I’m sorry I didn’t get back to you. Are you still looking for someone?
-
Actually…I think you might be perfect. You gave some great feedback on my short story, so I’m sure you could do the same for my novel! :))
I’ll PM you later this week with more details and the link to the doc. Thank you so much!!! 🤗-
Awesome! I love family and sibling dynamics, and I also read a good amount of YA, so this seems right up my alley! (Although I won’t be able to help much with the 90s references, haha.)
Do you still have my email from the short story critique?-
Yay yay!! (Oh I know, right?? I’ve asked my parents and some other older writers I’ve met through KDWC, and even though they gave me a lot to use [plus Google, lol], there’s still something difficult about getting it right since I didn’t live then 🤪)
Yes I believe so!-
@esther-c Yeah, that totally makes sense! I was gonna say, ask your parents xD. But I’m sure it’s still difficult.
Great!! 😄
-
-
I may have to get some YA recs from you sometime, because I struggle to find clean fiction that I would actually enjoy 😭
-
Oh definitely! I’m sure I can come up with a list. Middle grade stuff can be great if it’s well done, because content is so much better. 😉
-
@hybridlore
Please tag me if you post recommendations! I want to read YA, but it’s usually filthy and cringe. -
For sure!! Until you come across that one middle school relationship that somehow works out perfectly. 😂
-
-
Ok for some reason even though I still see your comments on the short story doc, it won’t let me view your email. 😅 Could you share that again with me so I can share the other doc?? I’ll tell you as soon as I see it if you don’t want to leave your email up.
-
Awesome! Tysm!! I’ll probably send you the doc tomorrow since I need to make a few notes on it first. :))
-
-
Ok I added you to the document! You should get an email about it I believe. (:
-

-
-
Hoo boy. I’d love to, but uhhhh…I wouldn’t be any help. I’m a terrible critiquer and my romance experience is practically nil. You would probably help me more than I help you….sorry!
Funny enough though, my own romance work (a fanfic) took place in 1970 in New Mexico. What are the odds?
-
Ahh, no problem! :))
No way! That’s so cool! XD-
Yeah it was just a consequence of how the original story was set up, but it’s funny to think about.
I doubt your characters will experience anything even close to mine though lol-
Oh dear, was it a Star Wars fanfic?? In that case, I hope my charries aren’t handling the types of weapons they use. 🤣
-
No, it was something else, but yeah there were a lot of weapons involved XD
-
My Star Wars fanfics don’t really cross over into our world. Yet.
-
Though I suppose in a fanfic, you could do whatever 🤷🏻♀️
-
-
Oh duhhhh 🤦🏻♀️ I’ve watched like all the Star Wars movies, I should know they don’t take place on earth 🤣

lolllll no biggie.

I say go for it! The memory loss thing is good, and the fact that he tries to join the Kunulfs. It separates it from WF. Plus, Andrew Peterson pulled a Beauty and the Beast to begin with. There’s not a romance, but trust me, there are plenty of similarities. And beauty and the beast pulled from the Bible. (see Daniel) so…. I…[Read more]

I thought is was the same color as your pfp with the girl and the bookshelf. So a lighter medium brown.
Yes, a new culture.
Gak! Everyone is driving me nuts with all this pfp and name changing. I don’t know who anyone is anymore! *sob*

Yes, I thought of you as a quieter girl. Lover of books. Long light/medium brown hair. Writer, friendly, softer spoke.
*shrug*
Not sure if any of that is true. (except I know the hair isn’t.)
I mean yeah, that sounds pretty accurate. I may be more talkative than you pictured, but everything else sounds right.

It would be you who figured it out. Everyone else has read these books, and then you swoop in and find it! haha!

HA! Got it!!
Ardentan’s have a French/Irish/English culture.
The Empire is German/Roman.
Turbans do not fit either of those.
