*puts hand over mouth to keep from screaming*
Oh my flying flapjacks! We have some talented writers over here! *applaudes* Everyone’s writing is totally incredible! Very well done to all of you! First drafts can be both freedom and constriction at the same time. You’re free to write and make a mess because that’s what second drafts are for, bu…[Read more]

Hullo, new writing friend! 🙂 Do you like coffee? *offers a cup* It’s wonderful to meet you, and oooh, your novel sounds interesting! I’m such a fan of those genres, too! Fantasy is my all-time favorite.
I have some additional questions (forgive me if other people asked these already)…

2. Who is…[Read more]

Yikes… I’m sorry to hear you have the same problem! 🙁 Pacing is a mystery, that’s for sure 😀
Oh, I know, right? Character arcs in general are wonderful, but redemption arcs? Even better. I like them so much that I included it for one of my characters, Newton.

Thank you!
Whoa, did you do that with artist markers? I have some, but I haven’t mastered them yet since my main choice of art tool is the pen. Do you have any tips for markers?

Oh my gosh, thank you! 🙂 I’ll try my best at a description…
She’s around 14 (maybe 15) years old, first of all. She has pale skin and long, wavy blond hair that goes down her back. She normally has her hair down, but sometimes she braids it at the back (like a waterfall braid). Her eyes are dark grey. If you’re…[Read more]

Oooh, this thread sounds amazing! I’d love to sketch out my MC, but unfortunately… let me just say that would be a bad idea XD If anybody’s looking for a project, I’d be happy to give a description of my MC! 🙂 (BTW, the drawings on here are fantabulous!!)
