@Jenwriter17 I’m off now. *salutes* See you in the future!

@Catwing @Dekreel okay see you both! <3

@Jenwriter17 I’m still around. Sort of. Just doing world building/character work for my new story.

@Dekreel hey!! *waves*

@Rochellaine Okay! See you in the future. 😉

@Seekjustice alrighty, friend. See you another time!

Welcome @Catwing ! Haha nice music choice. 😛

@That_Writer_Girl_99 you’ve already got tons of advice and all that, but if you ever need specific tips or anything, hit me up! (I’ll probably respond faster on facebook than here though, to be honest :/) I do archery (started a few years back on a 20 lb and can now shoot 60+ lb) and have used recurve, long bow, and compound. I’ve made my own…[Read more]

@SeekJustice I’m doing some plotting for a new story (eeep) since I finished edits on my other WIP yesterday. 🙂

@Jenwriter17 ahh no, that’s not good. Definitely praying, friend. <3

@ingridrd Aaaah I love superheroesssss.

@rochellaine @seekjustice *pokes head in* I liiive. Are you folks still writing?

@Ethryndal I have actually had this problem before in the past. Basically, I second what Elizabeth has said. Don’t push yourself to keep writing while you’ve got this big problem. Sit back and work it out.

– What do you actually want the main theme to be?
– Can you revise the characters and their arcs and actions to fit that theme more…[Read more]

@Jenwriter17 Yeeah I just don’t think they actually have any good chemistry. Sure they could like each other, but an actual relationship…wouldn’t work out, in my opinion.

@Jenwriter17 I like Han, but if 70 year old Harrison Ford played young Han I would be happier. XD

Okay so maybe this new actor dude won’t be too bad? I don’t know. I’m just reserving judgement until I see the actual movie.

As for Rey and Kylo…no offense to anyone, but I absolutely don’t like them together. 😉

@Jenwriter17 as Elizabeth said, the plot points of writing a movie script is the same as a fiction novel. And as Rochellaine said there’s a lot of different people who take part in the storytelling.

My #1 tip: imagine every single word you write as happening in a movie. If you can see it perfectly in the movie style, then write down the small…[Read more]

@Dekreel

Hey. Look. I’m not going to say you’re an amazing writer, but I am going to say that if you like writing and if it’s something you enjoy then it’s a gift. It’s a gift from God.

He’s blessed you with that gift and you don’t have to be a higher standard, a better writer, as good as ‘so-and-so’, because He’s given you the gift in exactly…[Read more]

@Dragon-snapper I’ve recently started up a facebook page too, and I’m just learning the ropes. I normally share all my blog posts on there, and some updates on my WIPs (though I should do that more). I’m thinking of doing a ‘Saturday Snippets’ sort of thing where I share a piece of writing every Saturday, etc.

Other than that, I also second…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I’m so so happy that you checked out the ‘too good to be true’ forum. This place wouldn’t be the same without epic people like you to spread some happiness and friendly words of encouragement and advice.

Seriously, girl. You’re amazing. <3

Dekreel Recommendations on their way. 😛

Steampunk

– The Rithmatist (Brandon Sanderson)
– Storming (K. M. Weiland)

Both excellent books, and really really good.

Sci Fi
(a very broad genre so it depends exactly what you’re looking for?)

– Insignia (S.J. Kincaid) (not the most amazing book, in my opinion, but okay)
– The Lunar Chronicles…[Read more]
