Hey Emma, I don’t think we’ve really met yet. 🙂 I’m Noah, and I’m as green as they get to writing (started about five months ago in July).
How long have you been writing? What’s your WIP about?
Okay, so I’m currently brainstorming a medieval action adventure series. You have any tips on planning a series in particular? Where do…[Read more]

hen I read them and write placeholders like “Thingy. Thingything.” every second sentence
🤣
Hey, I still have faith in you.
Things will be interpreted differently now than they were at the time it’s set.
Yes, when I used the word gown, that problem was always in my mind, because it has strong connotation of high quality, and d…[Read more]

This story will go on from medieval + renaissance to industrial + modern to space age (essentially star wars XD) through several series.
Wow my man, that’s ambitious, and I love it. 🙂
Long for ‘No’? (Don’t worry, it’s not my most pathetic pun XD) *failed to find a good pun for lengthening Noah, is very disappo…

Hey Joshua! I’m Noah (yep, just Noah not short or long for anything 😉 ), great to have you!
I’m a total extrovert. xD I love talking to people, and the word that describes me best would be gregarious.
I am running out of good and clean novels to read.
I can not express how much this is me. xD I have quite strict rules on what I…[Read more]

I think you’ll be surprised at how decent it already is! Whenever I think “Well, this is two thousand words of trash but I’m leaving this problem for future me” and I reread it later I always wonder why I hated it because it’s pretty decent!
Let’s hope. 🙂
Though, I do want to try to draft my next book in 2-3 months.…

Paraphrase: Rose rants about dutch weather
I must have a sadistic streak to me, because I was smiling the whole way through reading that. 🙂 I especially liked the ten seasons part.😄
Have you lived in the Netherlands your whole life?

Noah Cochran replied to the topic A Villainous Poem in the forum Poets 4 years, 5 months ago
while I still love those villains, I wanted to show that there are some villains that truly have no regrets as to their choices.
I can’t agree with that enough Anne, some people are just evil and narcissistic, and that is all there is to it.

YAY!!! Go you!! That’s fantastic, congratulations on finishing your first draft!! Most people don’t manage to draft a book in a lifetime and you did it in like three months!! Great job!!
I appreciate it. 🙂
As long as there aren’t TOO many typos
That’s why I’m doing the quick polish, hopefully that will make it readable. xD

First of all, this entire exchange was HILARIOUS!! XD Y’all have the best senses of humor XD
Why thank you, Cathy does have quite the ability to take a conversation to the next level. 😄
Oooh, that’s odd! In fact, it isn’t particularly American. (Not arguing! Just adding my weird bits of knowledge 🙂 ) I’ve heard it often and I’m…

Okay, so I’m here for the same reason Rose is…but seriously Anne, that poem was amazing. I especially loved the question put to the villain, it actually made me want to keep reading it. Absolutely fantastic.
The villain’s response if exactly as avaricious as it should be, and it shows the nature of a heart darkened with the…[Read more]

No you idiot, babies are born with this pet called blue. It’s an alien with purple horns and it eats obnoxious guys who ask dumb questions.
You, Cathy, have one forward and imaginative tongue on you, though I believe I might have mentioned that already once or twice. 😉 That was fun to read. 🤗😄
it’s a Yankee turn of phra…

baby blue
Do people have blue babies where you live? That can’t be a good thing…xD
🙂 I’m assuming you are using that adjective to mean the sky is young.

Noah Cochran replied to the topic Fantasy Is NOT the Same Thing As Magic in the forum Fantasy Writers 4 years, 5 months ago
This is going to be the point after which I have to bow out. To say God has a problem with the English word “magic,” a word which necessarily does not exist in a book which was not written in English, such that a thing becomes evil even if it is not essentially evil before that label is applied, is not only to put words in God…

then I would mention that the supernatural isn’t inherently bad
This is your reoccurring argument throughout your comment, so let me drill down on it. As you said, miracles, exist, the spiritual realm is all around us (as I’ve already said, the spiritual realm is realer than the n…[Read more]

Noah Cochran replied to the topic November Writing Group in the forum General Writing Discussions 4 years, 5 months ago
It’s been about 4 months since I’ve started, didn’t know a thing about writing until last June, so I’m a newbie. 😄
Basically, it’s about a U.S.S.R. celebrity actress on a mission to expose the atrocities of Stalin’s man-made famine of the 1930’s.
I’m intrigued, keep me updated on its status. 🙂 What got you interested in this time…[Read more]

Well, thanks for all your thoughts. 🙂 I hope that your writing will never shine a bad light on Christianity and that you will really think through the act of creating your own religions and supernatural beings, gods, and abilities (like Sanderson’s and Riordan’s) before you use them.
Hey Denali, glad to have…[Read more]
