I haven’t tried writing a series, although I’ve read a lot of them. What you’re saying makes sense; on the one hand, you have to leave the story open for another adventure, but you still have to find a way to close the first book.
I suppose my top advice is to study popular, well-written series and take note of where authors…[Read more]

GodlyFantasy12 replied to the topic Writing A Series in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 9 months ago
@writerlexi1216 Oh yay! Glad I could help! I’d say, don’t worry too much about it if ur in the first stages. If ur in later stages then yea, its time to put some thought into it. But sometimes, depending on who u are, the story works that out some.
So for me, what kinda makes the length of the book is the worlds and storyline, which are…[Read more]

CALLING ALL SERIES WRITERS, YOUNG AND OLD (but not too old cuz….then U wouldn’t be on here XD)
So, @writerlexi1216 made me realize it doesn’t look like we have a Series forum yet!! Which is CRAZY!! Because…ummm….we need one!
As I told her, it can be tough to find tips for writing a series, despite their fame! So I figure, why not get tog…[Read more]

Ah, it is really hard to find advice on series’! Especially long Series’.
one tip, if ur doing a trilogy (3 books) u may wanna go check out an Authortuber named Abbie Emmons who used the 3 act story structure to show how to use it with trilogies.
So u do need to figure out roughly (I say roughly because it can be apt to cha…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 Aw, I get you! I feel that way sometimes as well! But when I do, usually I just pray and then move on and keep on working. And sometimes I look back at my old writing and am amazed at how far I’ve come…and also I think about my writing dreams! And how hard I have to work to get there…sometimes I show my stuff to others for…[Read more]

As a matter of fact, this is my most common problem as a writer. I fall into the discouraged every-aspect-of-my-writing-seems-to-stink-especially-compared-to-so and so’s-writing.
I feel you all the way on this one. And I feel the same way about my beloved/hated WIP.
I recently watched some videos from a show (that I find a…[Read more] -

@writerlexi1216 You are not alone! I also struggle with doubt over my writing and often wonder if it is any good. I’m sorry you’re going through this!
One thing I like to remember is that your writing is your own and it is special because is it yours. No one else in the world can or will ever write exactly the way you do, and that’s one of the…[Read more]

As others have said, you are not the only one who has struggled with feeling like your writing isn’t good enough. As a perfectionist, I often look at my writing in comparison to other authors and feel like it isn’t half what I’d like it to be. There are a few things that I know primarily to help me get through this very miserable…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way! But let me tell you, you are most definitely not alone. In fact, doubting yourself actually means there’s a good chance you are a good writer! The thing is the most confident writers… are usually not very good writers. This is called the Dunning-Kruger effect. So, in a way, self-doubt is a…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216 Aww girl!!! Don’t you ever be too shy or afraid to post stuff like this on here!!
and you are definitely not alone! Listen, I’ve doubted my writing sooo much before, and, while I’m thankful it has gotten better, I still can’t wait for the day when I can edit it lol!!

@writerlexi1216 YESSS. Same here. I’ve only played Ocarina of Time and a li’l bit of A Link To The Past (like barely even past the first dungeon) but I know quite a bit about the other games due to my obsession with the mangas, fan art, and just reading about them. XD The aesthetic of the games is so good, I find! I love it!
Haha, yeah, I’m also…[Read more]
