@r-m-archer That does make sense. I’m not too worried about plagiarism, so hopefully that’s good!
@literatureforthelight That is SO AWESOME that you read it in Chinese- although it’s not surprising that that would affect comprehension :).

I discovered a piece of ancient Chinese literature called The Journey to the West and really enjoyed it. Parts of the story (some characters and sections of plot) are inspiring me to write a similar character in a similar situation, possibly resolved differently. My idea wouldn’t necessarily incorporate Chinese characters, culture or mythology.…[Read more]

Sarahfi replied to the topic Favorite Relationships To Write About? in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 months, 3 weeks ago
This is a great discussion topic! I adore father-daughter (or father-son, mother-son, mother-daughter) relationships. I especially like it the father or mother isn’t their actual parent, but they act as a father or mother figure. I haven’t finished a project with this kind of relationship, but it crops up all the time in the stories I plan.

@zee I feel similar. I’m not published, but marketing feels so nebulous and impossible- shouting into the void. Exactly.
@daeus-lamb Thanks for the resources!

Hi, Kaytelyn @princessmk! Welcome!
Poetry is awesome. I’ve written some in the past, and I think that’s cool that you do too. I find it interesting that you wrote poetry first and then fantasy- most people go the other way around :).
I’m kind of brain dead tonight, otherwise I’d say more. Welcome, I hope I see you around!

@e-k-seaver I have beta-read once before- I’m not sure if that counts as experience or not. I have written a lot and had several people beta for me. Again, not certain if that counts.
If it does, your story sounds interesting and I’d be happy to read it. I am drowning in college assignments and fifteen million other books that I’m also reading,…[Read more]

Welcome, Kariel! Romance, huh? Your stories sound really fun! I have never really read or written romance as more than a subplot, but it sounds cool!
I’m Sarah. I’m a sci-fi writer and an INFP (one letter away!). If you ever have questions about grammar, character, story or physics, feel free to tag me. I’d love to help out.
We’re glad you’re here!

Sarahfi replied to the topic Impactful Books in the forum General Writing Discussions 5 months ago
One of the books that has impacted the most has been The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson. This book was my main introduction to modern adult fantasy. As a writer, it mainly taught me not to glorify war. As a reader, it proved that yes, it’s possible for an ending to be even better than you hoped.

That is really helpful. Thank you for taking the time to lay that out. I think probably I won’t start Bookstagram yet, just so that I won’t feel forced into it.
