Hey Avensers!

I have another little exercise for ya.

Emotional reactions are often connected to what we value. When something we hold dear is insulted, it evokes a strong emotional reaction.  That said, what characters get emotional about should be directly tied to what they value.

Say your character Phil loves unicorns and has dedicated many…[Read more]

Afternoon!

Different cultures have different standards for emotional expression. For instance, some societies may prize nobility and honor and encourage taming emotions that may undermine those ideals. One might encourage emotional reactions to misfortunes, while another might suppress even justified sorrow or anger because they expect their…[Read more]

Hey Avensers!

The time has come for more goals! 😀 What do you guys plan on achieving this week? Did you reach your goals for last week?

As for me, I’d like to work on both my WIPs an hour each every day this week (excluding Sunday).

Just to get you thinking about emotion this week…

How does prose affect what readers are able to feel when they read? How does cadence and rhythm impact mood? How do you use prose to sharpen your story’s emotional impact?

Feel free to post any epic thoughts that occur to you. 🙂

So…

I was a bad guild master and forgot about last week’s theme discussion. Whoops. 😛

Anyhow, this week I’d like to discuss why we shouldshouldn’t evoke shock in readers. It’s an emotion, so it sorta counts. 😉

Now, I am not referring to the sort of shock readers feel after an amazing plot twist. I’m talking about the horror or disbelief…[Read more]

*Waves sword*

The third guild war is upon us!

Our mission, should you chose to accept it, is to write a scene from the point of view of a five-year-old who has an engaging character voice.

The prompt is due in two weeks. I don’t have to judge this one, so I’m here to help whenever you need it.

Now let’s get some ideas rolling! 😀

Here’s a…[Read more]
