Oh, and if I officially get kicked off the forum (haha, just kidding), will I also no longer receive the emails? I wanna unsubscribe from those as well.

Yeahh what the update taketh it shall never return, I’m afraid the Fantasy Writer’s forum as we know it will never again exist excepting the pages and pages I saved to my thumbdrive to read offline until my thumbdrive decided it was writeprotected and could not be unwritten. There is no escape…it is gone…
BY THE WAY FOLKS IT WORKSSSSS IT…[Read more]

Noah Cochran started the topic Prose Questions in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 6 months ago
I know what should and shouldn’t be done in prose is highly nuanced and opinionated, but I chose a few examples that I find myself running into, to ask y’all about. So, my question is, in the following examples, are they okay as they are, or if not, how would you write them? (aka, is there a better way to write them?)
Here they are:

Noah Cochran started the topic Dystopian Plot Ideas in the forum Plotting 2 years, 8 months ago
Alrighty y’all, I love the dystopian genre, and I’ve been wanting to begin plotting a series for a while now, but unique and fresh plot ideas have been escaping me.
I consider the defining features of a vast amount of dystopian novels to be what I call the Big Three:
- An oppressive and autocratic government that is usually lying to its people…

@erynne Thank you for the topic invite!
I really like the article by @r-m-archer , and it brought to mind that there is a distinction between antagonists opposing the protagonist and outright villains. I’m going to talk about villains, but I’m assuming they’re also antagonists.
Lucifer from DC comics, specifically Sandman by Neil Gaiman and Hellb…[Read more]

K.M. Small replied to the topic Prayer Support Thread in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years ago
I haven’t been quite as consistent as I’d hoped, so I’m doubling up on some days to catch up. I’ve found that a number of the prompts flow together really well when I bring them to prayer.
I guess there wasn’t a certain direction any of these prompts were meant to go, but this week especially they’ve been starting points for praise. This…[Read more]

Hello Josiah @josiah
Day 5 of Week Two hit me hard.
Talk with God about the challenge of putting yourself in a character’s mind and portraying a human soul. How have you been struggling with that recently and what would you like to learn from Him about that?
I am at a particular point in my WIP where my protagonist is falsely accused by an e…[Read more]

@josiah Thanks for looking, sorry to waste your time =P Must have been a connection error on my end.
@seekjustice Sorry for the delay. I think Cinderella’s weakness was the classy Shakespearian aspect of it. It just didn’t catch the general public’s interest in the same way that The Jungle Book did the next year with its cast of Hollywood…[Read more]

Hey @josiah!
It’s been… going. 😀 Some days I’ve forgotten, which I’m sad about, but the days that I’ve held to my commitment of praying anytime I start working on writing have been amazing. I’ve been in a huge writing slump recently, as in the entire year of 2021 huge. But the… I believe it was fifth day prayer prompt was so good for me, the…[Read more]

Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic Prayer Support Thread in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years ago
This is really, really good, @josiah 🙂 Thanks for the article and for starting this thread!
I commit to praying over my writing every time I sit down to pound out my words this next month. And hopefully, with God’s help, it’ll continue into a life-long habit. 🙂

Brian Stansell replied to the topic Prayer Support Thread in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years ago
I agree!
I will commit to doing this as well.
I need this, our city needs this, our country needs this and our world needs this.
It makes sense that change should begin as a personal commitment, and especially in the gifts and passions that God has invested in us.Thank you, Josiah, for taking a personal lead. We’re with you.
