Autumn is officially upon us! *throws a handful of fall leaves* That means it’s time to set some fall/winter goals!

First and foremost, how did you guys do on your summer goals? I know we added a bunch of new members since last time we did this, so not everyone has them. But if you set some, did you reach them? Did anything big happen in your w…[Read more]

@fawxofthecomics I’d say that counts. 🙂

@jenwriter17 Unfortunately, outlining and pre-writing activities don’t count. Just new scenes. 🙁

@christianna-hellwig Yup, that counts. 🙂

Hey Avensers!

It’s time for our second guild word war!

How it works: Each guild will keep track of the words they wrote for a week. Once that week is over, each guild adds up how many words they wrote and compares the number with the other guilds. 🙂 I know last time we had a whole sign up form and everything, but we aren’t using that now. All…[Read more]

Gabrielle Pollack started the topic Topic #17: Info Dumps in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 8 months ago

Hey friends! I’ve got a brief tip regarding info dumps for ya.

For an info dump to grab readers attention, it has to be important. One of the best ways to make a bunch of information meaningful is by adding emotion.

Perhaps a scale-covered wolf the size of a horse inhabits the woods somewhere in your MC’s world. You need to tell readers that…[Read more]

Hey Avensers!

Sorry it took me so long to post another theme topic XD. Today I have a question for you inspired by a book called, The Emotional Craft of Fiction.

Do you think fear can hinder us from imbuing our stories emotion? If so, how?
