Sorry IÂ haven’t been part of this conversation before. I missed the part about real-world stuff and didn’t really know how to contribute as I don’t really have experience in Fantasy
As I may have mentioned before I basically write his-fic and that has sorts of language differences involved. And then there’s also the different cultures within…[Read more]

Maddie Morrow replied to the topic Mr. Mortality & the Heart Collector in the forum Critiques 7 years, 3 months ago
Oh. My. Gosh. @donna-darling this is marvelous! I absolutely love it. The style really reminds me of Howl’s moving castle. The humor was hilarious, and I loved the creepiness, but didn’t feel like it was overly dark. I don’t have any major critiques. There are parts that are almost telling, but that is consistent throughout the story and feels…[Read more]

Woah! I laughed! I cried! I trembled in my boots!
That was honestly terrifying. In my opinion your descriptions were incredibly effective at inspiring fear…you really have to finish this so I’ll be able to sleep again. 🙂 I have to admit that the story felt extremely dark at times, especially in the intro to the second part. If…[Read more]

JennytheFaun started the topic Concerning a Shortish Story and a Longish Story in the forum Critiques 7 years, 3 months ago
So, a couple months ago I wrote a story that was just going to be “for fun,” but ended up being one of my favorite things I’ve written. It also ended up being rather long for a short story, weighing in at over 9,000 words. I’m not planning on editing it more (unless you guys convince me I should), but I’d appreciate it a lot if you could give me…[Read more]

I’ll try to get to this today or maybe tomorrow. I shattered my phone, so now I have to do all my internet work on my iPad or laptop, so it’s taking me longer to get to things.

oh that’s super interesting! I bet it’s fun (and challenging) distinguishing each language and speech pattern.
yes! That’s it. I was thinking it was the ancient language, but couldn’t remember and was too lazy to google. Pardon my being a knulheim. I can definitely relate to not focusing on language heavily. It’s not my f…[Read more]

Hi guys!
Here I am, fashionably late.
Today on our world building escapade I want to talk about language. Language is one thing that brings a setting to life. Wether it’s the entire languages Tolkien created, the magic language in The Inheritance Cycle (help me out @i-david, I cant remember what it’s called) that controls magical powers, or eve…[Read more]

Hey wanted to say welcome though it’s a little late. I haven’t been on here much this year so I just now saw you joined.
I was introduced to the Wingfeather Saga about two years ago and I have to admit at first I was not crazy about it but by the second and third I was in love… I have yet to read the fourth.

I did see it, but completely forgot I had (I was super busy when I looked at it and didn’t have time to get back with you).
I loved this part! It’s like I’m beginning to unravel the mystery. Here are a few thoughts:
1. That sarcastically fueled wit I knew so well brimmed within her words. – This sentence was a bit too long for me to d…[Read more]

Goodmornight, y’everyone. ‘Tis I, David.
We are unique. And (hopefully) our stories are too. There are so many different things, big and little, that come from us and go into our precious books. Believe it or not, those various quirks and tidbits can also be endlessly fascinating.
So that’s what I want to talk about. What are some unique…[Read more]

I’m loving getting to hear more and more about your story. I love the legends you’ve built!

Hi guys! So I guess I forgot to post this week, but here I am to continue our world building discussion.
Today I want to get into the history of your world.
In my opinion the history is one of the first things we should try to figure out, because without knowing where the world came from, it’s hard to say what it is now.
For instance, Panem w…[Read more]

So I recently finished a 4 part, (very) short story. I invested a fair amount of time and emotion into it, and I think it turned out alright. I’ll post the first part here. Read it if you want, and if you do, please let me know what you think and how it made you feel. All comments and critiques are appreciated, good and bad alike.
So yeah. Wit…[Read more]
