Yay! I’ll work on it some more later. And THANK YOU. This is just SOOOO helpful, for the rest of my story too. I think I’m going to go see if I can get one of my irl writer friends to look at it…

Sorry I  haven’t been part of this conversation before. I missed the part about real-world stuff and didn’t really know how to contribute as I don’t really have experience in Fantasy

As I may have mentioned before I basically write his-fic and that has sorts of language differences involved. And then there’s also the different cultures within…[Read more]

Okay. Wow. I really should’ve gotten to this sooner. So I redid the scene again. I really just totaled it completely actually. So… is this better? @kb-writer @maddiejay @i-david

Karim in particular was having trouble. He’d never been a good rider and had fallen off his horse almost immediately. Now there was a r…[Read more]

@maddiejay

Yes and yes! *slightly strained grinning* Although Kari’s second language doesn’t need much help thankfully. She’s human, but not exactly. So her vocal cords can handle her second language. Which is basically growls and hisses and stuff like that.

Lol I’m a little late, but oh well.

As for my stories themselves, I tend to always have at least one favorable character who has a lot of similar traits to myself. I love writing characters the most of all, and I love writing tension between characters– it’s especially fun if one is tryna be friendly and the other just hates them. XD

I also…[Read more]

@maddiejay

Congrats!!

@duskflower

*sighs* I am stuck. Ish. On like everything. Technically I’m editing it all and then I’m going to continue writing but… I don’t know what I’m going to write. Like @maddiejay said ranting helps. Also car rides where you do nothing but stare out the window while your mind subconsciously works on the problem. And walks. Yep. That’s…[Read more]

@maddiejay

Ooh… cool worldbuilding thingy this week.

Well. *sighs* Lemme go with my Kari storyline this time instead of my Ash Fall one.

Kari can travel between dimensions. So I try to vary the vocabulary a bit depending on what type of culture etc. is in each dimension. Kari also has her own language that I’m developing(definition: is…[Read more]

@maddiejay

Congratulations! I just finished a round of editing too. It’s relieving and daunting!

@maddiejay

Yay! I’m so glad for you! That must be a huge relief (and really weird). If only I knew what that felt like… 🙂

Haha! I’m sure that would make your husband very happy!

@maddiejay

I totally second @kari-karast on this. Haven’t finished anything yet, but I’m super happy for you!!

@maddiejay

Ah. Well, good luck with that… *falls silent at the memory of just how many shaggy haired guy charries I have*

@maddiejay

Congratulations!!!

And I totally recognize the feeling you’re talking about. A sort of “in betweenness” haha.

@maddiejay  @i-david @kari-karast @kb-writer

What an interesting topic. (and a really great way to get to know you guys better ya know someone’s writing tells volumes about them 😉 )

Okay as far as writing Habits…

I always, always listen to music if I can or feel super distracted and honestly I prefer music with words really it’s almost less…[Read more]

@maddiejay

Wow!!! GO MADDIE!!!!!

I kinda felt that way finishing first drafts but I’ve never completely finished editing before, kudos to you!!

@maddiejay

Got it. I will call the ninja if you’re not there. 😉

I am curious as to what you mean by ‘be there’ though…

@maddiejay

I… *coughs awkwardly* have never felt that way because, honestly, I have never finished a book. So… can’t help you there.

Anyways.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! THAT’S SO AWESOME!!!

@maddiejay

Aw! That’s super sweet! I like it a lot.

Speaking of old poetry that’s not my favorite, I was fourteen-ish when I really got into poetry and wrote a bunch of them. Most of them were inspired off of the works of Robert Louis Stevenson and Robert Frost (Those were the only two poets we actually formally studied for school. I used to…[Read more]

Hey, guys sorry I’ve not really been active this year my college classes just started up and I’ve been trying to spend a little less time online besides my school. I might be a little less active during this spring semester but I think I’ll be able to pop on here once or twice a week and still pr…[Read more]
