@claire_tucker Pain. Find out what your protagonist wants most and take it from them. Then figure out how this will force them to change and move towards the end of their character arc.
K.M Weiland has some great articles on the midpoint at her website, Helping Writers Become Authors. One of the things she says is that the event right in the…[Read more]

Welcome!
Fantasy is what I play with mostly, too. I’ve tried other types, but eh it just doesn’t go so well haha.
Do you have a favorite of those many bookshops you have found? If any of them are chain stores, can you recommend one? 🙂

Oh neat! I live in Johannesburg. 🙂
Your story sounds fascinating! I would love to read it sometime when you start writing it! I’m also working on world-building at the moment. I’ve written about twelve chapters of my story so far, but I realized that I needed to figure out my world before continuing.

Just popping in to say hi! I’m Grace (one of the several here😄).
I write fantasy, at the moment, although I plan to try other genres if I can. I figure dabbling is something writers do naturally.😉
Are you working on a story at the moment? If so, do you mind sharing what it’s about?
Nice to meet you!

Your story sounds neat! I would love to hear more about it once you have…[Read more]

Hi Claire, I’m Claire. Nice to meet you! Lol. Random question, have you read Dust? One of the main characters is named Claire. It’s so fun to read a book where the main character has your name. 😛
Anyway, I’m (soon to be) 18, and I enjoy hand lettering, graphic design, art, writing and anything having to do with being creative……[Read more]

Hi Claire, welcome to the forum! That’s so neat that you’re South African! I also live in South Africa since my family are missionaries. We’re Americans though. 🙂
I also enjoy writing fantasy. Are you currently working on a novel or story? If so, what is it about?

Howdy! You live in South Africa?! So cool! How do you like it there? We just moved to North Carolina.
I too love to write. I’m a beginner writer working on my first novel (I call it my first because it’s the first I actually think I know what I’m doing); but spend time on here with collaborative stories and the like. I love to be…[Read more]
