Tesh Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 I know no one has responded for a few days, but I think this is storming brilliant, so I must awaken this thread from its brief slumber. I guess. I will write all the time I'm technically lying, because I'm a huge procrastinator But I have to take this oath to join the guild, so... I will write all the time Or try to, anyways *waves hand* amen? So... Um... I may or may not have published a short story in an anthology... And I've finished a very small handful of things (mostly obscure fairy tale retellings, which I highly recommend doing to get used to finishing a story) and I've been doing NaNoWriMo... Generally, I suck at writing consistently. I'm also wearing Doomslug socks, but that's irrelevant. If anyone would like to read my short story, I'd be happy to share. It's pretty short, about 2,300 words long. I don't have the final version, but i have one that's kind of close. (The more I read it the worse it gets, though...) And if there's any genre we should wage war against, it is YA dystopian. Can I be the tactical commander of our fledgling army/nation/group of nerds? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m currently trying to write a YA-ish (PG-13 level book I guess) dystopian that isn’t about a teenage brown-haired white girl in a love triangle, luckily it isn’t that hard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'cause oh my gosh that drives me crazy! And I can't read a book of there's too much romance. I have to claw my way through it or drop it. And I'm going to say it... I don't like The Hunger Games... I read the first book but just couldn't make myself get through the first chapter of the second. I did read Partials, which was far better than most, but still wasn't my favorite. There are a few things like The Giver that are amazing, however, but most of them don't feature romance as the main story line. The Giver might not even really be YA. It might be one of those weird in-between books. I haven't read this in years, but I loved The City of Ember when I was in elementary school. I should re-read those ones. ANYWAYS. I started talking about books. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aspiring Writer Posted November 16, 2020 Report Share Posted November 16, 2020 Alright, I'm gonna revive this thread. Made a new thread talking about DRAGONS! So, read that, and let's talk about how we would make realistic Dragons work in fantasy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trutharchivist Posted November 16, 2020 Report Share Posted November 16, 2020 I won't copy the oath but it's mostly right about me. Sadly, part of the reason I don't write a lot is that I have other things which I also procrastinate. I will add that I will try to think of interesting ideas for stories whenever I have time, but I'll never really use them ever since I'll procrastinate. Besides, I try focusing on one idea. I technically published a sort-of fantasy book, but it shouldn't count by any means since it was a very bad one, and it was only given to family and close friends. I have an idea for a world - it's in my signature - and also a vague idea for a story in it - basically some sort of a retelling of Cinderella, though I'm afraid this kind of stories was done too many times. I will like to have some help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A reference I’d recommend is the Cinder books series, it’s a Cinderella retelling that is very original and well done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trutharchivist Posted November 16, 2020 Report Share Posted November 16, 2020 You mean the one with the cyborgs? Never read it, I have committed the worse sin in existence and read about it in Wikipedia. I don't know if it could help. Did you read what I wrote about the worldbuilding? I acually had an idea about something to differ it from the original story, part off which was making the prince disappear - replaced by an identical-looking innocent person - and the main plot would've been people searching for him. I'm just not sure if it's really a good idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
