Faith Blum started the topic Topic #24: Introducing Settings and stakes in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 7 months ago
To be honest with you, this is one area I have been extremely weak in. I’ve always had a hard time describing settings. I write historical fiction, so that’s part of it because I have to try to figure out what the setting even looks like. So I usually do the lazy thing and don’t describe it at all. Then I read Structuring Your Novel by K.M. Weila…[Read more]

Hi, Guys! So I am helping a friend of mine edit a short story. But the problem is, I don’t really know how to help edit. I mean, I think I know the basics, but I don’t want to critique too much. Any tips?

Character introductions are very important in a book. What kinds of things do we need to remember when we are working on the beginning of our WIPs? K.M. Weiland has a few in her book, Structuring Your Novel that I’m going to share with you today.

@Faith_Blum That’s cool, not sure how good I am. I mean, can read a little music, and I’m not terrible at playing, so that’s pretty good.
@Kay My favorite C.S. Lewis book would have to be The Chronicles of Narnia. Personally my favorite book in the series was ‘The Horse, and his Boy’.
