Noah Cochran started the topic Character Voice Game in the forum Characters 4 years, 1 month ago
Excellent character voice is extremely hard to pull off, and so like I do with all hard things in life, I decided to make a game out of it.
It’s a joke.
I’m kidding.
Mostly. 😉
Anyways, to the point. Character voice makes everything from dialogue to normal scenery descriptions pop off the page, but, for me at least, it is a very difficult…[Read more]

Ohhh, you have a Byzantine character?? I’ve never read one of those, I can’t wait to meet her!
She is…an interesting individual. xD
I love when people mention one extremely niche piece of knowledge and you just know they were researching it for writing reasons because nobody would ordinarily just know that
Exactly. I’ve actua…[Read more]

You are most welcome, Braelynn! I attended my first one last year on Engaging Plots and highly recommended it. In fact, I believe they even took my quote and put it on this year’s ad. 🙂
I will have to miss one day of it though because it is my wife’s B-Day and I am taking her out for something special. But I will catch up la…[Read more] -

Hi Braelynn! Very pleased to meet you and so glad you could join us on SE.
That is a very big undertaking, but an important one. Too many follow the “truth is relative” idea towards their own destruction.
Are you attending the upcoming Resonant Themes Summit? SE has some great sessions lined up.

Wow! That is super! I would love to read it once you have it finished.
Thank you! That may end up taking a w h i l e yet XD
Wow girl! That’s awesome! I have never tried a trilogy before; always have wrapped it up in one book.  Definitely in my bucket list though!
In my defense, it wasn’t the plan XD I wrote book one and figured out the…[Read more]

Noah Cochran started the topic Dystopian Plot Ideas in the forum Plotting 4 years, 2 months ago
Alrighty y’all, I love the dystopian genre, and I’ve been wanting to begin plotting a series for a while now, but unique and fresh plot ideas have been escaping me.
I consider the defining features of a vast amount of dystopian novels to be what I call the Big Three:
- An oppressive and autocratic government that is usually lying to its people…

Funny how clusters of letters that form meaning are so captivating.
My sentiments exactly. 🙂
How long is your series so far? Do you have a theme?
I’ve only written the first book, but I’m planning to have it be a five book series. The first one came in at a little over 190k words, and the rest will be at least slightly longer than that…[Read more]

Oops! Just realized I sent the above to Rose instead of your forum username.
Don’t worry about it! That happens to all of us, it’s not an issue 🙂
That is so so awesome! What is your trilogy about? How long have you been working on it?
It’s a fantasy in a North-African-inspired setting. It’s about the princess of one of the tribes,…[Read more]

Howdy Braelynn! I’m Noah, glad to have you! 🙂
I am self-described as tenacious teen who is infatuated with books, languages, and the thesaurus.
Don’t overdo the tenacity too much. 🙃
What languages have you learned? I just started learning French, but I’m what one might call a ‘learner of languages in history.’ In other words, IÂ …[Read more]

Hi Braelynn! I’m Rose! Pleased to meet you! *Sweeps cloak in a dramatic bow*
I’m a fantasy writer, mainly! (Though I love reading historical fiction and mysteries as well!) My WIP is a fantasy trilogy, I’m over halfway with drafting the third book!
