HOW TO WRITE ROMANCE Advice from an amatuer, to another amatuer =D I mean that lovingly, don't hit me Heyo, I'm back. The friend of mine from the Mary Sue yokemabob suggested I write more advice shizz, seeing as how I've managed to sum the Mary Sue thing down simply. As an early birthday prezzie I'm dedicating this to her, with lots and lots of love. ^^ Okely dokely, roooooooooooooomance. As I've mentioned before, I'm a hopeless romantic. I read all kinds. I don't really have a preference for genre (like paranormal, or reality or gay whatnot) unless you call good story telling a preference. Ho Ho. I have to say there are a lot of good f

In my opinion, these are the most important factors in any character design: color, concept, shape, simplicity, cohesiveness, repeatability, personality and uniqueness. Color: Any design with colors all over the place creates too many places for the eye to look. Keep your color design very simple and zen. Looking at the colors shouldn't be jarring or confusing. This isn't to say only use one color, not at all, but try to make sure the ones you use are harmonious. Avoid mixing and matching different saturations of the same color or picking colors that clash with one another. My rule of thumb: Stick to no more than three base colors and some

Show, don’t tell (SDT). It’s one of the few consistent pieces of advice that all writers have heard at one time or another. Even the most amateur of writers parrot it back, but knowing the phrase doesn’t necessarily mean that we understand it, or how to implement it. So what does “Show, don’t tell.” really mean? SDT is the idea that instead of telling your readers what’s happening in a story, you show them. This seems like an abstract concept to most of us, but what it boils down to is this: using words to give your readers an idea without having to directly state it. There are many ways good writers

EmpressTuiLa’s Guide to Writing Fanfiction There are a lot of novice writers out there, including those who are still debating whether to write or not, so I’m here to provide the basic rules for good Fanfiction. Why am I making this? I’ve read way too many stories written so poorly that it’s driven me insane. So for those of you who want to avoid people writing bad reviews, or just simply worried if your story sounds good, then follow these simple rules and you’ll be fine. (As a warning, I do get a little testy in this so forgive me if I sound angry…which I do) #1 For the love of all that is good fanficti

Everyone's heard that characters should have goals, something they want and must strive for, overcoming obstacles and antagonists in order to obtain. Because, well, a story is the record of your character's journey toward achieving a goal. While all of this is true, I think a lot of writers lose sight of an even more important aspect of character. That is, motivation. Sure, you know what your character wants. Why? That's the gist of motivation. What is the psychology and reasoning behind your character's goal? If your character is driven to make money, is his motivation greed? To pay off a debt? To support his family? Motivation is your c

“Mr. Vigilante?” The cowboy snapped to attention, out of the right old worrying he’d been indulging in. In front of him was a nurse. Big, dark-skinned gal with a real short haircut. Didn’t seem all that upset, so it couldn’t be real bad news. His best buddy had been in that doc’s room for a while. Weren’t normal for it to be that long. So his mind had been coming up with stuff that might’ve gone wrong, building up momentum like a rolling tumbleweed. “Are you Vigilante?” she asked again, looking mighty ticked at his silence. “Yes I am, ma’am,” he answered and nod

~~~~~~~I do not own the pic~~~~~~~ Readers POV     You dragged your pencil along the floor of your holding cell. [Day 17 of your captivation and, already, my cell is almost full.] You looked around the small, grey walled, room you were in. The walls and floor were covered with numerous drawings. Mostly just sketches. But on the wall parallel to the door was a beautiful mural of a scenic landscape. Trees and fields covered the wall behind you. You gazed up at its monochromatic structure, wonder flowing through your mind. You looked back at the drawing you were working on currently, a small rose rested underneath your HB pencil.
