Does anyone else find that the types of books they read, affects their writing style?


Definitely. In fact, it's really hard for me not to make my stories too similar to the ones I read. Percy Jackson series and the Maze Runner series have probably had the biggest effect on my writing, but so have Divergent and Harry Potter.

Which story/stories of yours do you most want people to read and give feedback on?
The Confound Nexus and Feral Heart.

What has been your biggest struggle with your current project? How do you attempt to fight it?
Staying motivated, and staying on topic, I'm like a butterfly with ADD.

Krenko, I didn't realize you where homeschooled too!


Books always affect how I'm writing. Or if a book has inspired a certain story/character then I tend to write them in the same style while writing others a different way.

*Grabs Gundpowder by the shoulders* HEY BEST SONG EVER IN YOUR SIG> Are there anymore songs about bats you know?

My nicknames consist of Captain, Cap'n, and Gunner, if you wish to address me by any of those.

I didn't know anyone actually found that song in my signature! It's hidden. ^^ In order to stay on topic, PM me if you want to hear another.

I have a question! I will probably end up answering it myself, but I want to see your responses.

What has been your biggest struggle with your current project? How do you attempt to fight it?
WRITERS' BLOCK.
*groans*
I overcame it by posting a piece of the story on here and everyone commenting on it got me into it again :lol: <3 <3

I'm that one person that never plans out what they're gonna do and my projects usually go south of what I intended them to be.

@Krenko

*starts loosing hearing and sight*

Phoenix and Uni are both younger'n you


Krenko wrote:I'm younger then 14 XD

Eh, age is just a number, to me it really doesn't matter XD


For a while, I thought I was the only on who didn't plot ahead. XD

Heck, no, I like, never plan ahead :lol:

I hope to meet lots of other writers and get advice!
Cause I seem to need it.

I'm gonna just try this out..


What has been your biggest struggle with your current project? How do you attempt to fight it?
Having ideas at 1-3 in the morning, then forgetting them when I finally get a place to write them.
My current story is hassling me..

I plan to sleep next to some paper or my phone, with the memo app on standby.

Kia ora, welcome along! :D
I feel your pain, bro
I usually have a piece of paper on my wall to randomly write on in the middle of the night :lol:

Actually, Baddy and I did find two for our collab story Misfits of Vernada

phew I've caught up XD

It's the middle of the afternoon for me

And what are plots? Wait is that the magic thing real writers use to make stories sell?
(XD I never plot beyond a vague idea)

What has been your biggest struggle with your current project? How do you attempt to fight it? hmm, my biggest problem... Description. I'm really, really bad at describing things. And to fight it? I'm kinda trying to describe every tiny detail, (which is kinda failing btw). Uh, I'm also bad at making the main character really shallow. I think the best thing to do for that is the make the characters before I stick them into a story. I did at for my Camp Nano story, and they're all reasonably developed. XD

and welcome new members! Loads of questions etc. that I can't be bothered answering.

And Ranger, you need to do the next chapter of Misfits... My siblings are waiting.

You can do it Dove! You can do it! Just Do I- okay no. I'm not starting that again.

Because there are so many nooBs around (XD) I thought I'd post again about my competitions!
Just click the pictures below to be taken to them :D

Also, does anyone have title ideas for this poem I wrote last night?

The hissing sea,

The pounding wave,

These dangers we,

Both need to brave,

Before we reach,

The solid ground,

We will have beached,

We will have found,

The Dragon Stone,

And stole it 'way,

Through hollow bones,

Through night and day,

The hissing sea,

The pounding wave,

Two dangers we,

Alone have braved,

To save our home,

Redeem our land,

Our Dragon Stone,

Safe in the sand
The world is quiet here.
