That’s a great idea. Now I just need to figure out which first chapter to share out. 🙂 I may have to combine/edit one or more of them before I do. Thanks for your offer to help.

@kari-karast

Lol, well ok. I’ll see if I can make some sort of cohesive document to share out. 🙂 Thanks for offering to help brainstorm. Sometimes one brain (to “storm” with) just isn’t enough. 😉

@maddiejay

I wish I could have participated in this, but wasn’t able to due to life. I hope to be able to participate in some of these in the future.

Welcome to our new guild members! Glad you have you.

@kari-karast

My notes are a bit cumbersome for my world so far, meaning it might be a bit hard for others to decipher some of it. Any tips on how to make a concise document to share for brainstorming?

@toklaham-veruzia

For now, I don’t think my current WIP is ready to be viewed yet as there are changes I have made midstride and it would be confusing to read some of the early chapters. I also haven’t finished fleshing out some of the worldbuilding ideas. However, I may share a brainstorming doc if you are interested if I can figure out how to…[Read more]

@maddiejay

I like the ideas people are batting around here. There was something on a fantasy writing reddit I participated in a time or two in the past that I really liked.

What do people think about a 50 word writing prompt? A prompt like “Escape” or “Flight” or something like that then guild members who participate have to write to that…[Read more]

I love the sound of this idea. How exactly would it work? I’ve never done anything like this before.

@toklaham-veruzia

Thanks for the offer. I’ll go through some of my earlier scenes to see if one would be a good one to share out even if it’s one that I am planning on changing or cutting, as long as you don’t mind first draft errors such as typos and weaker sentences and we can go from there. 🙂

I would also be interested in brainstorming more…[Read more]

@kari-karast

Hi, Veraza! It’s nice to meet you, too.

I love your idea of working on something else when the main project motivation just isn’t there. I’ve done similar things in the past and it does definitely help to write something different. I have, however, been derailed from going back to a project due to starting a new one which I really…[Read more]

@i-david

It’s all good. I don’t have as much time to come to the forums as I like either, but I am grateful that this community exists.

Ahh, why I like Words of Radiance over Oathbringer is a fantastic question, one I am more than happy to answer. 🙂 I’ve been a long time Sanderson fan and The Stormlight Archive is perhaps his best…[Read more]

@wordsmith

This is rather embarrassing, but I just happened to notice that when I posted a reply to your post back on June 20th I forgot to add your @ name. I’m reposting my reply to you here (I also couldn’t figure out how to edit my original post, so here it is).

Hi, Buddy! Nice to meet you.

You raise some very good questions.

My story…[Read more]

@maddiejay

Yes, that is very helpful. I have a fairly solid grasp on what needs to be changed, though there are other aspects of the story I could use help fleshing out. I’m struggling a bit to nail down the magic system fully (I have some parts of it down, but others are kind of up in the air. For example, I haven’t fully figured out all the…[Read more]

@maddiejay

Thank you for the warm welcome, and I look forward to joining a critique group. I am glad to be here and look forward to receiving and giving critiques.

@kr-lalonde

Yes, that makes sense. I’ve completed some shorter works (Novelletes and a Novella) but I really want to write that full-length novel. My goal right now is 100k but…[Read more]

@april-j-rhys

Yeah. I’m not a fan of the Boom version of Knuckles either, classic Knuckles is the best. And I was saddened by the fact that characters like Julie-Su and Sally Acorn weren’t going to be in the IDW series as well, but so far I’m liking what Ian Flynn is doing with Sonic in the IDW comics. There are plenty of new characters that are…[Read more]

@april-j-rhys

Knuckles is my favorite character from the Archie series while Julie-Su (Knuckles’ love interest) is a close second. It is a bit sad that the Archie Comics got canceled but I’m glad IDW is now publishing the Sonic comics. I’m also glad that they kept Ian Flynn as the writer (I’m almost to the Ian Flynn stories in the Archie series)…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb

Thank you so much for the response and take all the time you need. I agree with @noodle-mum. Thanks for all the hard work you do on this site. I am so grateful that this site exists. 🙂
