Allison Grace

@sarah-inkdragon I really want to read this book… But I have multiple other beta reading projects right now. :/ But I still want to read it sometime! 😀 Can I?

@morreafirebird I finished my goals!

@warrenluther04 Praying! <3 And I echo @seekjustice , are you okay? If you ever need me, I’m here!

@karthmin Sounds good! Thank you!

@karthmin Scrapping it. *points to TNT*

@karthmin Does re-writing something entirely count? I had a scene written out a few week ago and I was brainstorming today and I’m completely uprooting that scene and doing a total revamp. It’s still going to have the same gist, but like a new setting and all that… *shrug*

Aw man, I don’t know if I’ll be able to do much. I’m in a worldbuilding, blog posting, stage right now. But I have been wanting to write some flash fiction. And some more tragic backstory… This WW ends on the 31, right?

@sarah-inkdragon *shrieks* Kare cannot read but he can draw too! *wonders if Jax was a slave too*

And I have another character who is left handed.

@sarah-inkdragon Kare is an elf too!!!! *faints with the excitement* And my most favorite character of all time (Jace from the Ilyon Chronicles) is a half-blood. And I based Kare on Jace! *faints again*

@Karthmin Sorry, too late. She’s dead. :/

*checks sleeves* I have arms up my sleeves too! XP *wonders if other people have arms too*

@thetessinator When I’m feeling burnt out, I just keep writing. Jaquelle Crowe says consistency is the key to motivation. 😀

Watching a movie or TV show, reading a good book, looking at pictures of my characters, reading my favorite parts of what I’ve written, these are all things that make me excited to write again too! Oh, and listening to epic…[Read more]

@morreafirebird *starts wailing* I’LL NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN. Wait.

You’re my mentor. =P

We’ll all miss you!

@karthmin *bows, flourish feathered hat that came out of no where* At your service. 😀 And congrats!

@sarah-inkdragon Thank you! *lowers voice* His sister dies.

@morreafirebird Yeah, he’s supposed to be too timid.

Weeelll…. I didn’t post any goals last week on this forum, but I did make some progress on them!

This week’s goals are:

-read on chapter of Creating Character Arcs

-beta read for Alyssa and Caroline

-look over poem

-write letter

@warrenluther04 I think it’s good on description! It creates a great image!

How did I not know about this thread?! :O

The master was asleep. Kare could hear him snoring from his little room off the kitchen.

Carefully, so as not to make the floorboards creak, he padded in his bare feet to the door. Before he opened it, he plucked a single apple from a barrel. Kylie would like it.

He hardly made a sound as he slipped out the door. The cold air hit his bare…[Read more]

@sarah-inkdragon I like it! Very nice!

@devastate-lasting *sobbing* That was beautiful!

@warrenluther04 I like that idea!

Well, why do we personally write? Because we could sorta combine our own personal reasons into one. Because, obviously, we all are writing for God’s glory, but what do we want to achieve with our writing besides that?

I want to deeply affect someone in some way. And I want my stories to point to Christ,…[Read more]

Wow, lots of people have said great things! But I’m a strong believer in the importance of backstory. So, that is at the top of my list. When I talk about backstory, I mean everything that has shaped the character in one way or another. This includes:

-parents

-friends

-social status

-education

-death

-pets

-location they grew up in

-any…[Read more]

@the-inkspiller I’ll be praying!
