Kathleen replied to the topic Take the three main characters of a recent story you wrote and… in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 7 months ago
I know it says “Topic of the Week” but it’s really more like “topic that i post once a week but, you know, reply whenever you want” but that title is a bit long so I stuck with the former title. XD
But anyway, pulling a prank on Damias for the soul reason that you’ve never had a “near-death experience before” is brilliant.…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 7 months ago
It wasn’t too long at all! Your answers have made me see even more how wonderful writing can be. It’s pretty amazing all the things writing can do. I think writing stories is even more fun and healing than reading them.
It’s pretty dope right? Being to write all the stories that you wish existed. I mean it’s not easy and…[Read more]

Kathleen replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 7 months ago
Ooo, I really like that answer. Sometimes it can be really hard to communicate verbally. And when you do, you rarely get past the shallow stuff. But with writing, you can cut out all that nonsense and get straight to the point. I think writing, whether that be in stories, poetry, or song lyrics, is one of the best forms of…[Read more]

Elfwing replied to the topic character relationship, input please!! in the forum Characters 4 years, 7 months ago
@gracie-j @e-k-seaver thank you both for the input!
I have never done anything like publishing, and I didn’t know there was a stigma because I actually don’t know what indie publishing is lol
As far as the cover, @e-k-seaver, who/what would you suggest? I’ll have the money to do it, but I also don’t want to pay a ton of money if I don’t need…[Read more]

Elfwing replied to the topic character relationship, input please!! in the forum Characters 4 years, 7 months ago
@gracie-j ok cool! ummmm well, anything that comes to mind, tbh
But especially about audience, if that’s the right word; how many people would you recommend having an interest in the story before publishing it? I don’t wanna just put it on there and have nothing happen with it, that would totally suck XD I have about… 2o+ people that have told…[Read more]

I’m thinking of using Amazon… I am so new to anything like this, but I assume that’s self-publishing? XD

@gracie-j EEEEE YESSS
Sorry for the enthusiasm but you literally made my day! I’ve been wondering about this scene for a few weeks now but only just finished ‘perfecting’ it lol
And I am more interested in trying to publish in the near future! I just need to get done with the editing and revising if thats what it’s called lol
Any tips?

Elfwing replied to the topic What's the harshest critique you've ever received about your writing? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 7 months ago
I get what you mean.
I will say that there is a balance that takes a while to get; it’s like talking about pretty much everything in life. If you talk about anything enough every person will want a break or not want to hear anymore.
It’s like me listening to people talking about trucks and cars; I don’t give a hoot how much horsepower…[Read more]

@kathleenramm I’d say that the song In The Unknown by Volunteers literally sums up why I write, and also me, in a way

@kathleenramm, I love your answer, and I don’t think it was too long. Creativity is a beautiful thing, isn’t it?
1: I write to escape. I’ve had a bit of a rough go with my health in the last few years, and so when something hard happens and I feel completely lost, I write to let out my emotions and sometimes anger, then I talk to God about what’s…[Read more]

Lin replied to the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 7 months ago
@kathleenramm Deep question, deep question. As a kid my sister was the one who tried out writing first, and I said that I didn’t think I’d ever want to write, just read stories. Well, one day I grew bored of all the books I read, and decided to write my own.
And now I’m here and hoooooo boi I don’t know if I’m living a nightmare or the dream…[Read more]

Kathleen started the topic Why do you write? in the forum Topic of the Week 4 years, 7 months ago
Why do you write?
I started writing because my older siblings wrote a lot and I thought it looked fun, but the reason why I write now has evolved quite a lot from that.Yeah, writing is still really fun, but writing has become so much more than that. Stories have helped me understand myself more, the world more, people more, and have helped me…[Read more]

@keilah-h good job with those! they look amazing! So excited you’re using your talent for this and that I can be like “hey, I know who wrote that!”
It’s so cool you write children’s books. I’ve tried but I can never do one that occupies my siblings, who will do just about anything for me, let alone kids I’ve never met XD
Yours look so…[Read more]
