@eden-anderson

Hey! Thanks for starting this topic! Super awesome! 🙂 (And it really got me thinking)

Your story sounds so intriguing. And sad. I can definitely tell that it’s going to be very well written :).

@wolverinerm

It eats my posts like ALL the time so I have gotten into the habit of copying what I have written so that just in case it…[Read more]

@arindown

Yeah, good idea!

Well, I’ll share Marrill bc she is basically me lol!

She’s 13, has shoulder-length hair (it’s red, which mine isn’t lol!) She’s an only child…okay so a few things that aren’t like me haha! She loves animals and owns tons of them.

And here’s a snippet from her…

Marrill bounced along the dusty road in the back of…[Read more]

@arindown I guess I’ll share a bit about my three main characters…

Micah Radcliffe: An analytical, ambitious businessman. Blonde hair, blue eyes, tinted glasses. President of the Roses. Constantly in a power struggle with the other gang leaders of Heather Flights. Micah’s very confident in his own abilities and the power that he holds, which…[Read more]

@emma-starr

Yes! Someone else who doesn’t think action is a necessary for a heartfull story (what’s heartfull anyway?😆 I think I just made it up).

I have that discussion all the time with my brother. When I watched LOTR I loved Frodo’s story, and my very favorite part of the whole movie was when Boromir died.😭 But, my brother was convinced tha…[Read more]

Sooo…now that we’ve all got to hear a little about each-other’s stories, I was wondering if everyone would like to share some of their characters?😊

Tell us what they look like, why you like them, personality, strength/weaknesses, and mayb…[Read more]

@eden-anderson Oh my goodness yess! Let me know if you ever need a //snippet reader// :)))

I play piano and sing as my main instruments. I just started ukulele, but that’s more of a for-fun side thing. 🙂 Do you play any instruments??

THANK YOU. *happy crying* That means a lot to me!! I’m a poet trying to write a story and that’s just very…[Read more]

@eden-anderson Haha I try not make things too scary… I’m usually very self-unaware when it comes to the content I’m writing, actually.

@devastate-lasting Well, you know what they say…better late then never! Welcome to the party! 😀

Ooh, your story sounds VERY mysterious and fun! Also scary. 😄

@emma-starr Aww, thanks, friend! 😍 I’m hoping it will turn out good. *fingers-crossed*

Ooh, really? What instrument(s) do you play?!

YOU’RE STORY SOUND LIKE ABSOLUTE GOLD. (I was…[Read more]

@arindown

Yeah that’s totally it!!

My sister and I have dozens of code words that we’ll randomly say and everyone else is clueless. 😂😂

It’s awesome!! #sisterlife. LOL

@arindown. Thanks!! :)) This is actually my first story //ever// so I’m trying to make sure my plot is good etc. I’m a poet, so I’m trying not to get too caught up in description. XD

Thank you for the encouragement!!

@arindown I would say while there is some action, it’s centered more around Micah and his brother’s relationship, as well as their relationship with the drug dealers. Maybe a bit more of a crime drama.

I would call that an alternate history. I myself am still looking for what genre that is not fantasy contains only one fantastical element.…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting Ohhh, your story sounds like something by brothers would like. Are you leaning toward action/adventure?

Also, you said you have a story that you’re not sure is “fantasy.” I have one too. It’s in a totally different world, and different time, with different animals and things, but there is no magic/power stuff at all. Would it s…[Read more]

My story is about a boy and a girl. 🙂 <3 (I’m hoping for dual first person pov, but we’ll see)

The boy: He’s working to overcome his grief from his grandmother’s recent death from cancer. His grandmother was an astronomer, and he loved stargazing with her and researching etc. Now he avoids astronomy altogether. His grandfather makes him go back…[Read more]

@eden-anderson OH MY GOODNESS EDEN, I NEED THAT BOOK RIGHT NOWWWW

Ahhh I love that idea so much, I’m a musician and AGH that’s so sweet and such a great story idea.

I wanna read it!!!!!!

@beth20 Ah thank you!

@arindown

That’s how my sister and I do a lot of our stories. Except it’s like we have all of our characters in one big story and kinda roleplay them to get the feel of their personalities and stuff and then we get more into their individual stories.

@devastate-lasting

Wow, both of those sound very intriguing!

@chalice and @wolverinerm

Awesome thank you! I posted the first chapter in fantasy writers group so if you ever want to read it…
