Sarah Inkdragon started the topic End of the Year Critique Challenge Piece! in the forum Critiques 8 years, 2 months ago
Hello fellow Ereki! Today I present to you my September piece for the critique challenge–the first half of chapter one from my WIP, Firemaster. *confetti*
Now, as to what I’d like for critique, I’d like to focus on three main areas:
- Flow–how does the story flow? Is it easy to understand, or are there some confusing parts? How to the…

@devastate-lasting Good! Good!

@devastate-lasting Hiii! This is incredibly random and has absolutely nothing to do with writing, but is your tag a reference to Owl City’s /Fireflies/? (I’m just weird and curious XP)
-
Why, yes it is. I recently started listening to Owl city, and I found it very relaxing.
-
@devastate-lasting Cool! I started listening to them (him?) too (partially from pestering from a friend) and I’ve really liked them (him?) so far.
-
It’s a him. His name is Adam Young.
-
Ok. 😅 I should probably know more about him if I listen to him… XD
-
-
By the way, you’re new series sounds really cool! Will you post it for beta-reading on SE?
-
Ah, it’s still the same old series. XD. It’s supposed to be composed of a lot of different series, but I would very much like to post it for critique, yes.
-
Okay. Can’t wait!

Karthmin replied to the topic The Hobbit in the forum Story Analysis 8 years, 2 months ago
@morreafirebird Not to be too harsh, but I think The Hobbit is not on the same level as The Lord of the Rings in terms of execution. The story itself is brilliant, yes, but the gold is in the details – and I feel like he didn’t put as much gold in the Hobbit, and some of it that’s there isn’t even gold…
But that’s my personal opinion. Still…[Read more]

Audrey Caylin replied to the topic 2018 Week 18: Check-in time! in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 8 years, 2 months ago
@devastate-lasting @sarah-narnathron @filewriter @sageinthemeadow I’m seeing a common theme here: “it’s helpful but now I need to figure out how to apply it.” I shall keep that in mind for this Monday and those following it 😉
And thank you for your feedback 😀

Filewriter replied to the topic Critique Me, Please. in the forum Critiques 8 years, 2 months ago
@sarah-inkdragon, Wow! That sounds like a lot. I am sure that that will be very helpful. 🙂 Thank you! And I’m sorry for forgetting to put on the “suggesting”. I thought I did, but, honestly, I’m not that experienced with with the sharable link setting thing. So… yeah. But, I am pretty sure I fixed it. Pretty sure. At least it says I fixed it.…[Read more]

Filewriter started the topic Critique Me, Please. in the forum Critiques 8 years, 2 months ago
Hey, guys! So, I haven’t been on here as much as I wanted lately, but I have taken up the challenge of posting something every month for these three months. I have decided to share the prologue and first two chapters of my book Classified: A Hostanica File. So, for this month, I will share the prologue.
This prologue is about six pages and…[Read more]

Filewriter replied to the topic 2018 Week 18: Check-in time! in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 8 years, 2 months ago
I kind of agree with what @devastate-lasting said. Maybe it would help if we switched out every now and then. Like one week we do and exercise and then the next week we do “research”. I ‘m not sure if that’s what you were asking, but… yeah.
I definitely understood everything that you were trying to say, and I have learned a…[Read more]

Audrey Caylin started the topic 2018 Week 18: Check-in time! in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 8 years, 2 months ago
Well, it’s Tuesday night, so I’m a bit late for this. My classes started up this week so things are a bit hectic 😛
That aside, this week’s annual theme discussion is a bit different. Different in that I’m asking where are you at with our annual theme discussion? In the future, are there any areas you’d like me to cover more, suggestions for…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting, nice. 🙂

Andrew replied to the topic The Personality of a Character in the forum Characters 8 years, 2 months ago
@devastate-lasting, yeah, I write mostly in fantasy now these days.
Oh, yeah, I did twenty-six characters on purpose, having each of their names starting with a different letter. That way I’d get the entire alphabet. *grins*
The Rose Society.
Interesting name. Is the Rose Society like a company or something… or some sort of rule?

Audrey Caylin started the topic Time to sharpen your words… (A Prompt War) in the forum Announcements 8 years, 2 months ago
Well… they’re back. The guild wars have finally returned 😀
If this is your first war, here’s a rundown of the rules:
– This is a prompt war, which means we’ll be given a writing prompt and must write something based on that prompt (clean and under 2500 words).
– This is a team event, so as many people as possible should try to work toget…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb, thanks. Don’t worry, I was thinking about turning Cullen into a villain in the second book (which I don’t know how long it’ll be). You’ll get your ENFJ villain then. *evil grin*
I want to make an INFJ villain sometime.
@kate, thanks too. The troll is going to be a smaller troll that digs in the ground, not the really ugly, big ones…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting ah, foil character conflict. Very good example 😀 So is the one with Solo. (and it reminds me I need to watch that *facepalm*)
@sarah-narnathron I like how your first example is mostly about how the conflict worked thematically — that’s a good thing to keep in mind when crafting our own story conflict.
@karthmin I love that…[Read more]
