@Dekreel

The Mysterious Benedict Society trilogy, by Trenton Lee Stewart

North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell

A Tale of Two Cities by Dickens (though that and the previous might be a little slow if you’re looking for action. But then again, if you’re reading something like Les Mis, you might not mind. 😀 They’re great.)

Mistborn trilogy by…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollisong Editing my WIP. My goal was to have the first draft finished by Christmas, and I did it! So now I’m rewriting some of the beginning. What about you?
Emma Flournoy replied to the topic HAHA! I DID IT AGAIN! in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago

@Dragon-Snapper That’s WONDERFUL! D’ye get to edit it now, or are you working on something else?

Just so you know, the title Sector One is very cool.

Daeus replied to the topic What to do with a blog/website ? in the forum Publishing & Platform 8 years, 10 months ago

@itisastarrynight Blogs, like social media, serve two potential purposes. 1, To promote yourself/get people on your email list. 2, To interact with readers. Actually, they also serve a third purpose of helping you get used to writing regularly.

If you really want your blog to be a major way you promote yourself, you need to blog about something…[Read more]

What Kate and MNValentine said.

@warrioroftherealm ehehe… well they better not be, because I’m using them. 😛

No, honestly, I think they are. But then, so is a lot of other stuff. I’m confident using ‘elementals’ in my work because the system, while it does incorporate elements, isn’t just about elements. In fact the element part is probably one of the least important bits.…[Read more]

@gretald, @bluejay, @writefury, @daeus, @hannah-olsen, @mark-kamibaya, @Sarah-H, @kate-flournoy, @emma-flournoy, @dragon-snapper, @michael-stanton, @aratrea

Do you guys think elemental powers (i.e. fire and ice powers) are cliche? And if they are, what are some reasonable alternatives?

@epicaddie2 Definitely! I know what that’s like. I had to fly without my parents last year (I was with my sisters so it wasn’t as bad), but I was a little nervous too. 🙂

@Northerner Was that poem published on here recently called The Human Mind by your sister, or by a totally unrelated Olivia White?
- Northerner replied 8 years, 10 months ago
  
  Completely unrelated. Other Olivia Whites do seem to follow us around, though.
  - Emma Flournoy replied 8 years, 10 months ago
    
    Funny.
    - Northerner replied 8 years, 10 months ago
      
      We’ve bumped into other Sophia Whites, too — one of them, when we lived in the Cities, went to the same hospital and our records got mixed up once. It’s weird how often that happens.
      
      Oh, and then when people who know us personally call each of us by the other’s name, things get even more complicated in no time.
      
      Emma Flournoy replied 8 years, 10 months ago
      
      Uh, yikes. That’s freaky.
      
      What, you and your sister? Do you look similar? That I’m used to. People think my oldest sister Elizabeth and I look incredibly similar (supposedly, we really do, but I don’t think the resemblance is THAT close), and we get called each other ALL the time. People confuse us for twins even. She’s four years older than me.…[Read more]

@gh24682468999 this is my favorite image site: https://pixabay.com/

Like all image sites, it has some questionable content if you poke in the wrong corners, but overall it’s pretty good.

@perfectfifths Well, anything, but I think particularly descriptions/sentence structure. I want to make sure it flows just right and is easy to envision.
Ingrid replied to the topic The Diary Of Nameless in the forum Short Story Critiques 8 years, 10 months ago

@daeus Okay, so I just clicked on the link…and couldn’t stop reading. This is magnificent! I only made one comment at the end, but that’s just a suggestion. 🙂 Great work!

Ha! I’m writing a story actually with music based magic, so, yes, it can be done.

@perfectfifths Thanks. Just sent you an invitation to a google doc.

@Jenwriter17 ahhh I completely missed this before, sorry. D:

I really like everyone else’s suggestions for twists. Having the ultimate reveal of her family and mentor and all the secrets in the past being an unexpected shock really heightens things. *nodnod*

As for the blurb, it’s a good base to start off from but it’s long and gives a little…[Read more]
