Though I would add on and say that there is a freedom in third person which makes makes it easier to lay a scene out. Third person has a more flexible view.

Orson Scott Card does an amazing job with it in Ender’s Game.

@princess-foo Pretty much. Deep third feels more “in the present” because a first-person narrator is assumed to have already experienced all the events. With deep third, you also have less wiggle room with telling since there’s no narrator voice. Showing is very important.

Basically though, the differences are minor.

How are your goals going? Need any encouragement…or motivational pizza? (idea borrowed from Jane Maree 😉 )

P.S. I’ll get to…[Read more]

So, I have been following all the replies here, though I’ve not had much time to get on and actually say anything. 😛

@princess-foo Yessssss, Brandon Sanderson. I loved that book and am on the next one.

I guess I would say it becomes a steampunk when the technology is steam powered, or it is set in the historical time period, and futuristic when…

Holy spagoni, so many replies! O-o 😀 Okay, from the beginning.

@princess-foo I totally agree on your paragraph on physical attraction! I already did hold that as my opinion, though I will say that, in real life, there really are some people who are absolutely stunning and do actually become the “love interest,” per se. However, to avoid…[Read more]

Thanks @daeus-lamb. I pretty much agree with everyone here.

I only have two things to add.

First:

I highly recommend that all of you go watch Betrothed, the movie that HaYovel put out something like ten years ago. It’s very clear and informative, and shows a completely different model of how to pursue marriage.

Secondly, Christian Romance might…[Read more]

@princess-foo I agree about the physical attraction thing. No one will always look perfect, even the most beautiful of people. XP And when you love someone even when they don’t look their best, that is much more powerful than falling for the person who always looks flawless. I also love that idea–how you grow more attracted to people when you…[Read more]

Hi!

Here’s a snippet from a scene I wrote today –

My breath clouds the air in front of me.  It’s cold outside but I made a promise.

Never miss a sunset.

I disperse the clouds, exchange them for new ones with another breath.

The sun is burning everything it touches a gold that cannot be replicated no matter how many photos I take.  It is n…[Read more]

@princess-foo Oh my word, that video made me laugh out loud. 😂😂😂 But it offered som amazing advice! Thank you for sharing!!

@karthmin Yes… too creative…
@princess-foo I didn’t know that either…

Technicality… *shakes head* :*(

But they said they loved it, was one of their favorite stories, and wanted it as a novel. And to give it an honorable mention (but technicality… DX ). We were so close! 😀
I enjoyed writing it with all of you.

I just received the results of the guild war *drumroll*

The Meraki guild won and Parimi Alca is the honorable mention!

So no, we didn’t win, but GREAT JOB to everyone who helped with the prompt! You guys did an excellent job putting our submission together and editing it with such great teamnwork and creativity. While there are…[Read more]

Alrighty, another Monday is here. What are your goals? And if you have any suggestions for fun intros I can use, feel free to give those as well 😉

Can you try the links in the document again, to see if they work? For some reason it works when I try it, so I don’t know what happened.

@sageinthemeadow @enu @karthmin @princess-foo @emgc @catwing @kelly-lundgren @enu awesome! I’ll look over it later today 😀

Well, I totally spaced this *facepalm* The submission is due THIS Monday the 17th, not the following one. Maybe you guys knew that, but the realization just slapped me in the face today 😛 So how is it going? Are we almost ready to edit?

The parts I’ve read so far…[Read more]

How are you goals going? Need any cookies/encouragement? 😉

@princess-foo We shall take Avensbeck’s winning streak! Muh, ha, ha!

1. I think that would be a good idea.
2. I agree. My character is supposed to be weird, so I have her do that. One of the other characters could mention something about that…
3. I don’t know… We could kinda just put in bits here and there where they mention their powers. Or…[Read more]

@princess-foo thanks! It’s been fun!

It’ll be fun to edit too.

Introductions would probably be a good idea, but we’re still not quite finished and very pressed for word space. Besides; the powers aren’t very applicable into the chat setting and almost all the characters know of or about each other.

In every chat I’ve ever been a part of, people…[Read more]
