*waves to everyone* Goodness, it’s been ages since I’ve been on here. XD
I saw another post about a forum pretty similar to this one, there’s already quite a few Story Embers people on there and I think it’s run by someone on here
I’m one of the admins at Writer’s Vision. 😛 I’m sure we’d love to have you, but there is a rule against role…[Read more]

Ok this has nothing to do with the article, but you know what you guys should do? You should start a YouTube channel and have someone read the articles on video. That way those of us who are more inclined towards audio have a different way to listen to concise articles and learn stuffs. ^_^

Joelle Stone replied to the topic Battle Scenes in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 2 months ago
I love fight scenes. XD
First, try acting it out. In person. With your body. This will help you get a feel for how your balance is, or what muscle is pulled when you make a quick movement, what it is like to have to suddenly adjust direction mid-strike. You might even try hitting something with a stick to get the feels for the vibrations up your…[Read more]

Joelle Stone replied to the topic Writing Sprint Group in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 2 months ago
I’m totally up for this!! I don’t have Discord or any social media, but I could do an email thread or on SE. Another option would be that I could add a sprinting space on my blog if necessary. 🙂

Joelle Stone replied to the topic Writing growth ruts and what to do about them in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 3 months ago
Ahh this is such a biggie for me too, almost as much as having zero interest in my stories. XD Have you tried writing in a genre so astronomically different from your preferred one? If you write fantasy, try writing a contemporary. Or if you write romance, try sci-fi from a 10-year-old’s perspective. Maybe you write a wide variety of fiction. Try…[Read more]

Ooh, just what I needed!!! Really looking forward to these fun exercises. 😀 Another one I’ve found useful for developing/getting-to-know-your-charrie is to do an interview with them. Grab a writing buddy and have them hammer you with questions, which you’ll answer as your character. I’ve done it over forums, but it’s honestly a lot more fun and…[Read more]

This is brilliance in its purest form. Definitely going to bookmark it!! Thanks for all the tips. I’ve been blogging for the past year and haven’t even reached 150 followers, tho my email list has grown. I plan on implementing this somehow – maybe finding a partner? – but I haven’t actually published anything yet, so I might keep it on the…[Read more]

Joelle Stone replied to the topic First Person Present in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 7 months ago
Great questions. XD I don’t really have any tips for writing in first person (tho I tend to like that POV), so I’ll skip that question.
As for the other… I say go for it. Having interludes in the middle of the story in a different POV/tense would be pretty jarring, but if you had an epilogue/prologue in a different POV/tense, it would…[Read more]
