Do you prefer simple or complex storylines?
I honestly love both. I have favorite stories that are incredibly complex and other favorites that are super simple.Though when it comes to writing, I definitely prefer simple storylines. I could say the reason is because of the commonly preached principle of doing a few things really well rather than…[Read more]

Everett
When Hesh reached for his dagger, Everett did the same. These “statues” were strangely placed, almost strategically.
Whoever had placed them, had been expecting guests.
He clutched his dagger, trying not to shake too hard, and followed the group deeper into the freezing corridor. The animals were growing…[Read more]

Everett
He was about to ask why in the world they wanted to entering a room covered head to toe in ice. But Feather had said in her world, they stored food in machines like this to keep them fresh. Brilliant! Perhaps they’d find something to eat..?
All his hope evaporated as he followed the others through the large…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic You have the ability to read a book for the first time again… in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years, 9 months ago
Ooo, yeah. I feel like Harry Potter would be one of those series so many people would love to read for the first time again. Especially because it’s really nostalgic for a lot of people as well. It’d be kinda like reliving a piece of your childhood.
Narnia would be so fun to read for the first time again!…[Read more]

Everett
Everett worked his jaw as he weighed his options. He was starving and dehydrated, and exhaustion was creeping up on him. Perhaps this was one of those times it didn’t matter whether he could trust people or not. Did he have a choice?
He tried to remember whether he had left a dagger in his satchel or not,…[Read more]

Sorry for the late response!!! 🙂
Everett
“Judging from your question,” Feather asked, “you don’t happen to be the castle’s owner or know who it is?”
Everett forced himself to stop glaring at Rinzler and look at the girl instead, but the guy’s grouchy voice still rang through his head– if I hadn’t already re…[Read more]

You have the ability to read one book for the first time again, which book would you choose? Why?
Okay, this is such a cop-out, but I genuinely don’t have an answer to this.Maybe it’s because I haven’t read enough books, or maybe it’s because I really like rereading books so reading them for the first time again hasn’t really been something I’ve…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Side Characters (FP,WS) in the forum Characters 3 years, 9 months ago
Awesome!
Well, yeah, I tend to be around quite a few people with opposing worldviews. Though it usually ends up with far more conflict and split paths than heroic character arcs that inspire the people around them, haha.

Kathleen replied to the topic Side Characters (FP,WS) in the forum Characters 3 years, 9 months ago
I think it’s great that you have a character that displays what the end of the MC’s character arc will be, so maybe for your students it could be the opposite of that. They could be the resistance to the MC’s character arc.
They would demonstrate different world views on the theme of “changing the world for the better”, Which would…[Read more]

Wow! That’s such a cool idea!
I wish I could help more but I just don’t know how! I feel like I would need to know more about the twins and how the actual magic system works with the whole “opposites and double gifted” thing.
I’m still trying to figure out how to display the themes in my book, but one of the best pieces of advice I’ve…[Read more]

Yay! Another character! Can I have a brief description?? It sounds like maybe another character from the Star Wars universe, but I could be wrong..? Also, I like the mysterious ‘dark past’ vibes!
Once again, I mean no disrespect! I apologize for my character’s attitude, and I think you guys’ charries are awesome!…[Read more]
