Good evening, Ereki!

This will be our last topic on conflict. I just wanted to take a minute to summarize what we went over and highlight some important points:

– Conflict is the lifeblood of stories. If there’s no conflict, there’s no story.

– The strongest conflict is internal conflict. It’s what makes external conflict and everything else…[Read more]

Good evening, Ereki!

The winning guild for the word war will be announced soon, but in the meantime, we have another prompt war beginning.

The prompt is:

Write a comedy based on the mona lisa

Considering how hilarious our last prompt war entry was, I think this is right up our alley 😉

Rules are the same as last time. HERE is a document for…[Read more]

Ah, the wonderful month of October is here! And it’s wonderfully convenient that the first day of the month is on a Monday 😉

Good evening, Ereki!

I have two quick announcements:

1) I’m moving our annual theme discussion to Tuesdays. I feel like I tag you all a lot on Mondays anyway, and it’s become a pretty crazy day for me 😛

Good afternoon, Ereki!

WORD WAR RULES

– the war lasts one week, starting today at 12am and ending next Sunday (30th) at 11:59pm. I posted this a bit late today, so any f…[Read more]

Hi guys!

Here’s the second part of my September critiquing piece: the first chapter of my current WIP!

What to critique for:

– Character Development: are my characters described enough? Can you get a good image of them in mind?

– Setting/Worldbuilding: How’s the setting? Even though this is early on in the WIP, can you get a fairly clear…[Read more]

Hello everyone!

I am here to present the first part of my September critiquing piece: the prologue of my current untitled WIP!

What to critique for:

– Is it intriguing? Since this is kind of the “hook” or “attention-getter” of my WIP, does it catch your attention and make you want to keep reading?

– Character: Yes, the characters are supposed…[Read more]

Good evening, Ereki!

First, I have an announcement: when the other guildmasters and I met several weeks ago, we decided that the annual theme discussions won’t be “annual” anymore. Meaning whenever we feel like we’ve exhausted our exploration of a topic, we’re free to pick another one. So I have two questions for you:

1) Do you feel like we’ve…[Read more]
