Hello everyone! I'm SunnyJustice, a new member glad to finally find a thread like this. I started writing when I was nine years old and continued throughout my elementary and high school years. Now as a university student, I still write, although I have stopped doing NaNoWriMo because of time constraints in the November month.
I'm currently working on a story aimed for YA audiences. The placeholder title for now is "The Light of Delra" and it's a hopepunk/fantasy genre with odd superpowers, found family, and resistance through hope. It puts a spin on the typical rebellion story by resolving conflicts through compassion, not more violence. I want to touch on topics such as environmentalism, diversity and equality in an age-appropriate and positive manner.
Describe the plot of the story you're currently working on as terribly as you can:Clichéd pair of enemies-to-friends save the world with the power of friendship.
Oooh and I have some questions for you. I hope this is okay:
- Code: Select all
[b]What are the greatest fears of your main characters?
Optional: Are they forced, by the plot, to face their fears?[/b]
- Code: Select all
[b]Does your story have underlying themes or morals? What are they?
Optional: Why did you choose them?[/b]

I know I'm not the original asker, but thank you for the recommendations! I will check out the forum and writing competition. This would be my first time entering, so I'm gonna work up some courage and take a look. :)
