@seekjustice I know what you mean. I started college this fall and it has been eating my writing time. 🙁 Thank you so much for still being willing to read my little story.

Moonwatcher, my poor little serial story that I’ve been posting over on my blog, has been begging me to find more readers for it recently. So, since, you all like to read, who better to ask! Moonwatcher is a YA mishmash of sci-fi and dystopian with a healthy dose of action thrown in. If you’re interested, here’s the link to the first chapter and…[Read more]

@candide Even though the grammar is pretty choppy in some places, the heart of the story still comes through. Nice job!
What exactly about L.’s behavior at the end do you think is unconvincing?

@corkybookworm The sprites sound really cute. 🙂 Come to think of it, I should include the sea in a story sometime. Thanks to watching all of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies at a friend’s birthday party, it would probably include a lot of sailing ships and sword fights.

@corkybookworm Sorry I forgot to tag you! I thought I added you, but obviously I didn’t. 🙁
I love your ocean-themed world with the different types of sea people! I don’t like most common fantasy races, but there’s just something captivating about mermaids. Maybe it’s the fact that I’m an awful swimmer. 😛 Have you every heard of the Spiderwick…[Read more]

@missfaeriekaiti The dabnors are a really cool concept! Hope you get evacuated safely.
I have two story worlds right now, so I guess I’ll do the one Moonwatcher is set in. (I don’t know if you remember, but Moonwatcher is the story I posted a blurb about for critique a little while ago.) I didn’t spend a ton of time on worldbuilding elements that…[Read more]

@jennythefaun The last one is City of Ember, right? I liked that movie. 🙂

Hey everyone! It’s been waaaay too quiet around here recently, and I love hearing about the worlds people create for their stories. So, tell me: what are your story worlds like? Which creatures make the best pets? Where are the best vacation spots? What parts of your story world are just downright epic and amazing?

@missfaeriekaiti @corkybookworm Thanks so much for the feedback! I knew that last line wasn’t quite hitting the right note, but I couldn’t figure out why. By the way, if either of you want to read the first chapter, I posted it this morning on my blog here. 🙂

This is such a fun idea! I don’t recognize any of the quotes already posted, but I’ll add one to the mix…

@corkybookworm Thank you so much for the critique! It’ll really help me get rid of those confusing bits. I tend to try to stuff a ton of information into blurbs and similar stuff, which doesn’t always work…
Anyway, I’ll be posting a chapter every Thursday on my blog (https://quinnofallon.wordpress.com/), so if you want to read it, the first…[Read more]

Hey everyone! I’d like your thoughts on this blurb I wrote for a serial story I’m going to be posting on my blog soon. (My poor, decrepit blog that I haven’t posted anything on in ages.) It’s kind of an weird story, but I think it falls into the dystopian genre with a twist of sci-fi or fantasy. That being said, I most want to know if it leaves a…[Read more]

Quinn O'Fallon replied to the topic Slippery Syntax in the forum Rillumen's Writing Discussions 6 years, 8 months ago
@corkybookworm When I notice my sentence structure starting to fall into the same pattern (normally simple subject-verb sentences), I usually try to switch up how I start the sentence. Most of the time, I add either a participle (-ing phrase) or a phrase with as or while at the beginning (I forget what that’s called). So, instead of “I walked down…[Read more]

@kari-karast Sorry I went off the grid for a while! Thank you for your ideas. My main thought when I was thinking of posting it on my blog and/or possibly something like Wattpad was that it could help me build an audience, because I don’t have one. My blog is a pitiful little thing that I haven’t posted on in a while. It’s kinda weird thinking…[Read more]
