To me it is. The negative space is doing a lot of work there. It leads the eye to the title then the characters.

I like the layout of the minimalist one. That’s what I voted. But both are very good!

I’ll check it out, thanks for telling me the title :)

I’m on like 4 different platforms lol. Some have done better than others, but even then it’s been slow progress. Sometimes no progress. But these things take time, and I’m willing to wait. I love epic fantasy stories, tho. What is the premise of yours?

You ever find your story expanding beyond what you intended? Like I don’t even know what’s going to happen next, I’m just as surprised as the reader. That’s how book 3 is shaping up.

I haven’t tried RR for this reason. I wrote an epic fantasy novel, but it’s a slow burn. There’s not action on every page, so I don’t do that well anyway lol. Certain genres do best on each platform I’ve tried. I’ve yet to find one that fits my type of book. But 7 months on a platform where...

I love all cats! Though my personal favorite is my orange boy, Hobbes. He has one brain cell and is a love bug. So he’s quite endearing

The NHL is on its Olympics break. So I guess I’ll actually have to do something productive now that there aren’t any games on. ?

‘And’ is a big one for me. I try to edit and splice sentences or break them when I can rather than saying he did this and then he did that. But I use a thesaurus to try to avoid repeating too many words. I keep it on my bedside table lol.

I don’t remember exactly. It was in junior high, so I was around 12 or 13? That was over 30 years ago, so I can’t remember ? But I found a book of poetry I wrote back in 1998.

When Eldoria and Eldoria meet ?

I actually quit editing my book for like a year because I’d something similar. My dad died and I just couldn’t bring myself to be bothered. It didn’t help that I left off right before a funeral chapter lol. Did you have backups of the original chapters? Or were they altered for good?

Definitely. My voice has changed as I delve deeper into the world, I’ve learned the nuances of the characters. So I did a rewrite of my first book after starting book 3. The plot remained, but I changed some of the sentence structure and cadence. And edited out areas of repetition.

It’s 6 degrees, the power keeps flickering and I don’t have back up heat. Ooooh boy. Here we go again. I am totally over winter.

The one I wrote is among my favorite types, the reluctant king. He rules through responsibility and compassion over ambition. Though my other favorite protagonist I wrote is a goblin with a stoic attitude and a heart of gold. So I guess you could say I’m drawn to characters who value and respect...

On here or in general? I haven’t read a lot on here, but one of my favorite lines ever comes from Stephen King’s Dark Tower series: The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.

I feel like my dialogue is pretty decent. Each character sounds different from the next. Sometimes I do too much dialogue and have to go back and break it up with physical sensations. I have a tendency to write out a chapter while it’s in my mind, then go back and fill in things.

Worked till 6pm, wrote till 1am. Revenge bedtime at its finest ?

I focus on something else. Listening to music, drawing. But my mind is usually brainstorming ideas subconsciously. I’m always waking up at like 3 am with an idea and I have to type it out while it’s still fresh on my mind. But if I’m consciously trying to write when I have writers block, it...
