As an additional note here, it’s a good idea to set aside the book for a while if you’re in the latter camp when you finish.

Ah, great suggestion! I do that as well, I just forgot to mention it XD

@wingiby-iggiby

As for my WIP, I am farther along in it than any other book attempt before! I’m over 50,000 words *squeals in delig…

@wingiby-iggiby

I definitely agree with what was mentioned about setting aside the book between drafts. For me at least, that’s been really important.

Thank you so much! I will most certainly let you know when I’ve got it ready!!

You’re welcome! I’m excited to read it!

I do have a few more questions though, not necessarily about beta reade…

@wingiby-iggiby

Looks like everyone had awesome answers, so I’m just popping in to recommend Abbie Emmons on YouTube for any writing/editing tips. She’s super helpful and straightforward and most (I’ll say most because she does use movie examples from films I would not watch XD) of her stuff is clean.

BROOOKEE!!!! WINGIBY!!!! I MISSED YOU!!! *Gives you a huge hug*

I missed you so much, it’s so amazing to hear from you again! You have to tell me all about how your project is going!!

Your characters are not talking back, are they?

Hello @wingiby-iggiby

R. M. Archer put some really good advice in here, so I’ll just tack on this tidbit:

If you know that your first book needs major edits, definitely tackle that before you move on to the second. It’ll set the second book up with a better foundation in such a situation.

And I’d be happy to beta read your novel 🙂 I love beta…[Read more]

Hey guys! This was super cool to be a part of but life is pretty crazy right now. I haven’t been/ won’t be very active on here. I’m really sorry to leave. I hope you guys are able to continue on!

@kylie-wingfeather

Thanks!

Oh and I think Melancholic Writer left the group because of a busy schedule…? Someone please correct me of I’m wrong.

I LIVE!!!

*coughs quietly* *blushes* *totally did not just quote Mushu from Mulan*

So, I think we should go with Rebekah’s idea for the villain. Martin sounds pretty dastardly.

Sorry I haven’t been on lately! Does anyone have ideas for what’s next?

@winter_rose

O_O

Ohhhhhhh that is a great idea. *applause and grins*

*racks brain for all of the devious charries I’ve ever met in movies and books*

*finally settles on my favorite idea*

We could do Martin, from R. J. Anderson’s No Ordinary Fairy Tale series. He’s pretty devious (like… most of the time when he shows up he pretends to be…[Read more]

@rebekah12 @kylie-wingfeather @wingiby-iggiby

Maybe we should add another villain. He or she pretends to be everybody’s friend but is actually working for Macha.

@kylie-wingfeather

Yeah, I think have Macha attack. *will have to go read one of Rupert’s fight scenes in The Ashtown Burials so that I can hopefully write him accurately XD*

@winter_rose @wingiby-iggiby? Thoughts?

@rebekah12

@wingiby-iggiby

So, Macha attack, or??? Honestly, I’m kinda stuck about what we should do next.

~Kylie

*blows off MASSIVE cloud of dust*

So. Ahem. Any of y’all still here?

Apologies, I kind of. . . forgot about this. Ack. *cringe*

So. Uh. Should we. . . dust this thing off and continue, or…???
