We have 11 days left to write our 50ks for Nanowrimo and to write more than the other guilds. We may have not won in the past, but we have fought well. It is only a matter of time until we…[Read more] -
Karthmin replied to the topic CD Week 6: character voice {writing} in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 6 months ago
So… Character Voice.
First, let’s define character voice briefly. This is important because we need to be aware of and distinguish between three different voices here: authorial voice, narrative voice, and character voice.
First, authorial voice is your voice: your humor, your natural patterns of words, your instinctual word choices, and e…[Read more]

New week, new resolve. We’re getting closer and closer to the end of the year, guys. Let’s keep up our motivation to press on, fight well, write better, and keep each other moving.

Last week, I did not get any work done in my WIP (tho I did write some poetry), but I did fulfill my second goal, and I got some more beta-reading done. Pretty…[Read more]

Sarah Inkdragon started the topic November Critique Piece! in the forum Critiques 7 years, 6 months ago
So, I missed the October critique, but I’m back with my November piece now. This is actually the first chapter of a novella that I’m writing that I posted here before for a few Alpha readers to look over. It’s only written up to chapter 4 so far, but now that my school has leveled out a little and midterms are over, I’m expecting to be able to…[Read more]

Hi everyone, if you have the time, would you perhaps like to look at my November piece?
Content Warning: There will be blood.
This is actually one of the only pieces of writing that I’ve written that I actually like. I would like feedback on:
-Style. How’s my style?
-Characters. Are the characters developed?
-Setting. Can you see where it…[Read more]

@catwing Ah! *drops cup of tea on the ground* Oh, sorry… I startle easily. Yes, I enjoy tea, too. It’s my favorite thing, after flying.

Devastate Lasting replied to the topic Character Building Role-Play in the forum Erekdale Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@sarah-narnathron Well, you got me there.
@catwing I’ll leave that to the experts, then.
@enu Oh yeah, underground can go anywhere, right? Or I could just offer you a personal invitation and you could walk through the front door.

The Fledgling Artist replied to the topic Dwelf in the forum Art Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@enu Hey, I can give it a shot if you like. But just a warning my art style is kind of feminine and “cutesy” so I may not be able to achieve the aesthetic you want. 🙂

Hail, friends!
We come to another week.
State how your goals went last week, and set new ones for this one! 🙂

My goals were sadly unfulfilled, so I think they will remain the same, with some additions.

2. Critique two Ereki pieces in the critique section, and submit part three of my critique pieces for…[Read more]

Ereki.
It is time to begin anew.
The borders of our fair valley lay yet unmapped, our personal holdings are vague and undefined, and we – the people of Erekdale, are rather unknown, even to ourselves. So we must tread the farthest corners, build up home and hearth, and take a good look in the mirror.
What is Erekdale? And who are it’s…[Read more]

Dearest Ereki,
In order that the peace and tranquility which reigned nearly undisturbed under the leadership of Morrea Firebird may continue without change under my Guildmastering, our guild discussion of character development will continue in the same direction as we were traveling before.

If it please your honors, announce your weekly writing/life/school goals herein! We’ll collectively give each other a little kick in the pants to keep ourselves going, eh? Anyone is free to check in on anyone and ask how their goals are coming along at any point (but please, no biting!). This is, after all, group accountability; you’re not…[Read more]
