@quinn-ofallon DELIGHTED to hear someone else is attempting Nano in the midst of college craziness! 💜

@shadowwriter161

No problem! It’s very interesting and (at least in my case) startlingly accurate! Even aside from writing thorough characters I’ve found it very helpful to identify certain traits I should work on, or expect (or not) in others 🙂

@emgc Oooh well done! I got 448 😊

@emgc Sounds good!

@emgc @eden-anderson Yes! Let’s do this 😍

What time do you want to start at?

@emgc I’m up for it if you’re still around?

@naiya-dyani it’s 120 words more than zero my friend <3

The MBTI (Myers Briggs Type Indicator) is a personality test. If you fill it out, it will render one of the possible sixteen personality types for your character. It can be really interesting to read how your character’s personality type would typically react in different scenarios (relationships, work, worldview etc.). Of course, there’s a…[Read more]

@millennium your aesthetics are stunning!!!

@r-m-archer She only has one arm. One of my friends has a similar disability and it was shockingly sad hearing her talk about lack of role-model representation when she was growing up.

I know it’s going to be a rough ride, but I’m so excited to start writing!!

Hello! I’m also late to the party 🙂

This will be my third (?) attempt at Nano, but the first one that I’ve decently planned for so I’m really hoping for a bit more success this year…

Synopsis:
When her friend (and new brother-in-law) is kidnapped, Diana, a disabled princess, must use her still-developing air magic to save him. 

Not a very lo…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 you must have some top-notch time-management skills!

I don’t have anything ready at the moment, but thanks for tagging me anyways. 🙂 I have a feeling post-NaNoWriMo there’s going to be a bucketload of beta requests haha.

@ericawordsmith @r-m-archer

Thank you both for your replies! I really appreciate it 🙂

So something I feel both of you are stressing very much is that the way in which magic is represented is more important than whether or not it is present in the story. This to me makes sense: it’s a pretty nice parallel with real-word ‘grey areas’, in which…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I’ve also had a few miserable fails haha! 🙂

@r-m-archer @seekjustice Thanks so much for the tips guys! I’m feeling more confident for this year already! A large part of succeeding seems to hinge off your mindset in approaching the month so hopefully by prepping now (and hyping myself up as you suggest 🙂 )  I’ll have a good…[Read more]

Hi! I added you all (except for some reason I wasn’t able to add you @evelyn 🙁 ). Hopefully that’s okay; I’m just so excited to have writing buddies over there!

My username is corineiswriting on NaNoWriMo.

Has anyone actually successfully completed a NaNo? And if so, HOW? What are your best tips and tricks?

This is an interesting conversation, and I’d like to add my own observations. I’m a very newbie blogger myself but I’ve helped set up blogs for other people and I’ve done a good bit of research as well. Anyways, take what I say with a pinch of salt.

I don’t think the only solution is to have multiple blogs, I think you just need to decide which…[Read more]

Hello 🙂 Thought I’d add my own two cents to this question.

First off, MASSIVE question and I don’t think anyone can really understand all these nuances properly.

As @princess-foo and @the-inkspiller have said, marriage is meant to be an image of Christ and His Church and His utmost devotion to her.

I think God, in His omnipotence, knows who we…[Read more]
