Daeus started the topic Attack this, please in the forum Novel Critique Requests 7 years, 11 months ago
Alright, folks. So I need your sharpest analytical minds here. You see, I kinda need a finished synopsis today so I threw one together last night and would appreciate your best criticism on it. If you ever feel at any point in the synopsis that it has dipped in interest, that it sounds jerky, or that there could be better wording, please let me…[Read more]

BlueJay posted an update 7 years, 11 months ago
Okay peoples I’m STUCK!!!! I need a title for a story, but I don’t want to give too much away. So basically it’s based on Jane Austen’s novels and Charles is lord of Birchwood, a magnificent estate. His *cough* comes and well, kicks him out, so to speak.
My sister suggested the title “The Annoying Guest” which would work as a chapter title, but…[Read more] -

“This is a story about two children. Actually, it’s story about two children and a mischievous and slightly sulky door, but I mustn’t get ahead, must I?
At birth these two children were given the names Nicholas Wilbur Rothelburg and Scarlett Jaylie Rothelburg. They also happened to have been given these names at almost the exact same time, on the…[Read more] -

@daeus Thanks. That makes is clearer. I should try one of those sometimes.
@hope is dauntless, and a little weird
Her writing is notorious and her wit is feared
To be on the end of her razor sharp mind

Can someone tell me what a visual poem is please? I saw @bluejay‘s poem that she labeled that, but then @daeus said it wasn’t really a visual poem and I wasn’t able to click on the link to see his. What is it? Cause when I know, I might want to write one. I enjoy poetry.

@bluejay Yah, I cried too, at the beginning, when I knew his parents would die cause how else would he get stranded in the woods, when he had to choose between Elliot and his ‘family’ and even at the end when he found Elliot again. I wasn’t expecting that, but I guess they weren’t happy to leave it like the old one, where he never sees them again.…[Read more]

Could someone please tell me what ‘shipping’ characters is? I’ve heard about it on @writefury‘s blog and you write fiction website, but I have no idea what it is. Is it just really liking them or something?

Julia R. replied to the topic First or Third? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@anne-of-lothlorien: I have written a short Choose-your-own-Adventure story in second person. It was fun, but incredibly difficult! I can’t imagine doing 2nd person in any other way than a CYOA. That’s one thing I never liked about CYOA’s. Sometimes, they would say things like, “If you decide to chase after the criminal, go to page 8. If you…[Read more]

Okay, so I really like reading other people’s blogs/websites. My favorites are You Write Fiction, Writing in the Light, and Writefury. So I was looking for other Christian blogs to read, mostly about writing, and I wondered if anyone on here has one.
Now, I will not allow you to say, Oh, I know this girl who has a friend who has a good one.…[Read more] -

@hope @winter-rose Yay! People know my favorite Marvel quote ever (and I forgive you @writefury for misspelling my foreign name)
@anne-of-lothlorien Click the words La La Land. It’s a link to the trailer. That should explain your question.
And that quote is from The Fellowship of the Ring. Gandalf reprimanding Pippin (as usual).

Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic First or Third? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
I used to ONLY write third person, and I had no idea if it was omnipotent, or omnipresent, or whatever. Still don’t quite remember those. @Daeus what are those things?
But now I write mostly in first person. I like focusing on one person personally better, and it lets me put in weird thoughts that I probably wouldn’t if it was third person.
But…[Read more]

@daeus You asked me earlier…
“My qeustion is–is it the same thing to have a character swear as to do it yourself? Then, if so, is it also wrong to have an innocent person die in your story?”No, I don’t think it’s the same thing, but people who aren’t Christians might see it another way. We are to…[Read more]

You could just call it “Lord of Birchwood.” I don’t know. Just a suggestion. Or you could call it *Cough*, since that seems to be a theme in your story. 😉
What is the genre?
@bluejay Uh oh… even the KP doctor has a cough. D’you think it’s from all that smoke from my melting the chairs yesterday? 😛
Lords of the Will
Birchwood Problems
The Lord of Birchwood
???
*hands you cough medicine* Sorry, that’s all I could come up with for now.
@dragon-snapper Yes, that smoke was terrible. So please don’t do that again. Ooo cough medicine, thank you. You know, if you were nice tempered, I could take you on as a nurse. 😉
@his-instrument Hehe. The genre…hard question since I’m not great with genres, but just think Pride and Prejudice. 🙂
How about “The Will of Birchwood”?
Or does that sound too much like a name???? :S
@bluejay
The title “The Birchwood Will” might work, if you think that “The Will of Birchwood” doesn’t work. 🙂

Hmm…a second on Lord of Birchwood.
hmm, I’m not sure, but here are some questions that might help you choose.
What lesson does the character learn?
What’s one word that could sum up the story’s conflict?
Is there anything extremely unusual about your characters or the situations they find themselves in?
What are common words used in titles for the book’s genre? (romance, I assume.…[Read more]
