Alexa Autorski replied to the topic What is your protagonist's main internal struggle in your WIP? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 9 months ago
Internal conflict, I believe, is one of the key elements to any good book (and character arc, for that matter). The heroine for my current WIP, Caira Watson, deals with internal conflict revolving around the fact that she’s been trapped in ice for one thousand years and shoved into a prophecy (and no, it’s not cliché). Needless to say, Caira ha…[Read more]

OH MY GOSH. HE’S THE BEST. (By the way, that’s a terrific name! Did you make it up?)
And–Wait.
Wait.
Did you say he lives in a city in the sky? *pauses from drinking coffee* Seriously, that sounds so interesting! I already love this character too ^-^

*fistbump* That’s amazing! You should be proud! 🙂
I’m nearly 1,000 words into my new chapter! It’s going smoothly! Going to try to possibly finish it today… *crosses fingers*

Oooh, I’ll keep reading onward then! I was hoping they stayed good! *thumbs up*
Yes, I know exactly what you’re talking about! When you’ve had a character without a name for so long, and then suddenly you see That Perfect Name and everything just clicks. Ah, takes me back to ye olden days when my MC didn’t have an official name for…[Read more]

Oooh, I’d be happy to let slip a few secrets! I mean, it is a hate-to-love romance, so there’s tons of tension and room for breaking reader’s hearts along the way *muahaha* Oh, yes, there’s so many limitless opportunities to be cruel to my fictional friends (a few future scenes come to mind)… I feel bad for being so cruel to my cha…[Read more]

Wait *leans closer* *squints hard* did I hear you say you were a Percy Jackson fan, too? Neat! So am I. Well, I’m still in the beginning of the series, but I’m still a fan nonetheless. How did you like reading the books? Do they stay good?
Wow, those are really terrific names, by the way! I really like Ocean and Lycan!
Also, what a…[Read more] -

*quietly sits in the corner, loudly munching on popcorn, amusedly watching all the memes* These are high quality memes XD (and some of these are painfully relatable lol)

I’ll give that a whirl and see what kind of quotes I find! Thank you! I’m one of those people that can be motivated easily by quotes, so this should be a huge motivation boost 🙂

Good, good! Coffee is very good. Oh, yikes! I feel for you there. *cringes just thinking about cringeworthy things* But your book sounds really interesting!! (Coincidentally, my two main characters are siblings as well) Ahaha, that statement couldn’t be more true!
Thanks for the encouragement! I really do appreciate it 🙂 Happy…[Read more]

Oh my goodness, that was a tremendous help! Thank you so much! I think that’s one of my biggest struggles as a writer, too, thinking that my first draft has to be polished and neat and all that jazz. Which is why it’s hard for me to be content with my writing a lot of times. I’ll give this method a try! I’m sure it’s bound to work!…[Read more]

Thank you for that quote! (I’ve never seen this quote before? I like it!) It never fails to make me feel better to search through positive writing quotes. And I may try doing that literally… it may help! 🙂

Alexa Autorski replied to the topic WIP Chat! in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 9 months ago
Oh, thank you x 1,000! I’ll totally try doing that! And maybe just stepping away from writing for a little while is what I need. Or what my brain needs, that is. Sure, I’d be happy to send a summary! I’m… sort of bad at writing summaries (and I don’t have an official one), but here’s the basics. It’s a fantasy, so it does have…[Read more]
