Write the most emotionally impactful death scene you can.
Now, I can’t help you at all on this one. I can’t even see the ideas on this thread, because I’m the one who’s going to be judging all the sce…[Read more]

I fear I’ve been rather lax in this weekly goal thing, but no more! *Waves sword threateningly at my goals*

R.M. Archer replied to the topic Scribblers' Station #1 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 10 months ago
@dragongeek I’ll have to keep these in mind. They’re short sparring matches so I’m planning on doing blow-by-blow (which is what’s giving me issues, because I don’t feel like I have a particularly great handle on how fighting actually works and I have to try not to be repetitive), but I’ll definitely try to figure out the characters’ fighting…[Read more]

Gabrielle Pollack started the topic Backstory and Emotion in the forum 7 years, 11 months ago
Hey Guildmates!
Backstory is important to every part of a character, including how they react to emotion. This week, I want you to pick one of your characters and think about how he reacts to certain emotions. How does his past affect his reaction? Does his reaction spring from a specific event in his past, or is it the outcome of a certain u…[Read more]

Hey friends!

Would you guys like that?
