@faith_blum I haven’t read much of that either, but you could take a look at the Kingdom series by Chuck Black. I think that’s sort of biblical fiction? (Although it might just be allegorical…not sure actually.)

@faith_blum so is that all digital stuff? and not a real copy?
I just like the idea of going to a book store, and can point out that there’s my book. other than some just special websites, that you have to send people to if they want to buy it.

Jane Maree replied to the topic {2018 – Week 12} Longer or Shorter? in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 10 months ago
@faith_blum I went to look it up and try find something substantial for you, but I just came up with novel lengths too. xD
It’s mostly just a matter of reading other books in your genre and scraping them into one big generalization. Historical Fiction, for example, is often pretty average on the scale of paragraph lengths, sitting about it the…[Read more]

Jane Maree started the topic {2018 – Week 12} Longer or Shorter? in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 10 months ago
It’s a question I see people asking quite a lot around the place. “Should my paragraphs be long or short?” Closely followed by “How long should my chapters be?”
I also see people around the place saying “Your chapters should be at least 5 thousand words long” or “don’t write short paragraphs.” Or sometimes people will go the other way and say…[Read more]

Jane Maree started the topic Word Sprints/Am Writing in the forum Accountability & Achievements 7 years, 10 months ago
Word sprints are life savers. And there’s no better accountability than to sprint out some words with friends.
This topic is for that. If you’re writing, come here and say so! Maybe someone else will also be online and you can do some sprinting together. Or maybe just saying “I’m writing” will be a good bit of encouragement even if no one sees…[Read more]

Jane Maree replied to the topic i didn't know where to put this… in the forum Announcements 7 years, 10 months ago
@katthewriter I love the idea of a section for writing questions and word sprints! The ‘writing discussions’ section would be a good one to put any writing related questions if you have them. (Feel free to tag me if you post any, in case I miss the post by accident.)
@faith_blum ooh nice idea. I’ve heard of MyWriteClub before but never actually…[Read more]

Jane Maree started the topic {2018 – Week 11} Subtext in Dialogue in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 11 months ago
When we write our novels, I think we spend a lot of time thinking about the actions scenes, the plot, the character development, and the setting descriptions, but one thing that we overlook, is how important the dialogue is.
The conversations that our characters have, are just as important as everything else. To use K.M. Weiland’s words, all…[Read more]
