Ready to get writing and reading again.
I am also getting ideas to write out the scene on the reveal about the motivation of a certain villainous character, along with the conspiracy surrounding the ancient war.
Though I might do that one by one.
I don’t need to sound arrogant, but I think my writing is getting a bit better than it once was.
Color me impressed.
I may have found something! ( ˆ◡ˆ)۶ ٩(˘◡˘ )
Red Reign is going alright. I am on chapter two.
Chapter summaries are going great because I am doing different chapters that I feel need summaries.
That’s interesting!
It’s different compared to what my editor was talking about. The story map is only about where the characters are and what they’re doing, but you work backwards. So, you begin where the story ends for the character. That could be on the last chapter, or on the last page they appear. Then you go backwards thinking about how they ended up there.
This is helping me understand how my characters are connected behind the scenes.
I swear I want to chat about my plan for Jorildyn’s character in Red Reign! Like in my mind I finally know how I ACTUALLY want her character to go!
I just refuse to say it because if I plan on publishing this book, then I want to not reveal everything and how it is going.
But I want to blab about it because it is so amazing!
Wrote a drabble based on a prompt today. To no one’s surprise, its a challenge writing a story that is exactly 100 words long XD but I enjoy a good challenge
I can’t do that. LOL!
That is hard! I am amazed that people can write a story in 100 words. I know flash fiction is a 1000 words…right?
Yep! Flash fiction is usually 1000 words or less. I think its an impressive skill and art in being able to tell a story in such a limited amount of words ^.^
And from Wikipedia:
Exactly and thank you for answering.
That is impressive for some people to pull off.
I think I’m finally at the final stage in my book where I write the “final battle”. But I’ve never done it in this style before (first person POV, low fantasy-paranormal) so I am struggling to get from where I am to the very very very VERY important part. Yay for experimenting with new genres Yes, I am procrastinating editing IUP3 and all the books that come out starting [checks calendar] next month
I am leaning more towards doing pomodoro sprints with my writing and reading. Though I did it once, I am struggling to stick with it a bit.
Maybe I have to do my own version of it.
Inside the Chaos is going just like before! Good and wonderful!
I just finished Inside the Chaos and holy hell was that good!
It needs work, but man that was a damn eerie written story! I wrote it better than the last time and ugh it was so intense.
I shall start my second short story tomorrow!
Wow, that was fast! Gonna post it anywhere? Or is it too personal?
I’m not done with the rest of the other stories. Even so, I won’t publish this story online because of the future publishing route that I am going for.
So, I can only tell you how great it was, leave you guessing and wondering.
I haven’t been in a reading mood lately. Which sorta sucks because I got one library book that I read a little bit of and want to continue reading. I can get an extension on the book, yet I still need to read more.
I am writing by hand and on the computer, yet it is nothing major. Though I am torn on doing a reading journal since I am not reading regularly. I still do want to do one since I have a writing journal.
I need to get back to my second short story.
I continued on with my second short story and realized something.
I suck at utilizing the five senses better in terms of showing and telling.
It sounds like cheating, yet I just hope PWA helps me with that.
Aha! The story map is coming together. I now know that Richard was in Azethia for a long time before moving to Arcanland. He wants to rebuild his assassin organization.
Maybe, I’m thinking, some of the people who were arrested were freed by then and that’s why he moves out of Azethia to go and collect them in Lwendolen. But then he gets to Arcanland with them and realizes everyone has lost their touch. So he decides to recruit gangsters which there are many right now in Arcanland. Only a few of the older members stick around with him.
