  • Fiction Discussion Re: Science Fiction or Realistic?

    I'd say it isn't sci-fi unless the premise of the novel is actually the technology. Just like a book set in 2000 (where the time period isn't important) would not ...

  • Writers Corner Re: JulNoWriMo - Until Next Year!

    I wasn't thinking of doing this... but now I am. If I do, I'll probably just write one of the ideas that's been bugging me for a while. Hold the ...

  • Writers Corner Re: Touch typing with ten fingers

    Actually, it's better if you take it in stages. The reason you're feeling pain is because your hands aren't used to being in that position, so easing your way into ...

  • Fiction Discussion Re: People You Just Feel You Should Write About

    Yes, and places or objects too. I guess most of the things that appeal to my are old and/or mysterious. Like an abandoned building with strange logos painted on it, ...

    Interesting story sarebear! I'm going to make some comments, but you don't have to take notice of all of them, as my personal opinion tends to lean heavily in the ...

  • Writers Corner Re: Touch typing with ten fingers

    Hey Kyllorac, that's the same program I used/am still using. I colour-coded mine because I switched entirely (except for emergencies) from two-fingered to touch typing in one go; I figured ...

  • Writers Corner Re: Touch typing with ten fingers

    I'll be honest. Until about two months ago, I typed almost entirely two-fingered. Maybe a thumb on the SHIFT sometimes, but otherwise, my non-index fingers basically napped. I got through ...

  • Writers Corner Re: The Uber Writer's Block Thread

    I'm also addicted to character answer sheets, but that's just another form of procrastination. I know what you mean austenite! At the same time, they can help you get into ...

  • Fiction Discussion Re: past tense vs. present tense

    I like both. The first novel I wrote was present tense, and the second was past tense. It really does depend on the story. As someone said, a realistic fiction ...

  • Writing Tips Re: Gotta write a play!

    I don't know much (well, anything, really), about writing scripts, but it's always important that things are formatted properly. So you might need to research how to set up the ...

  • Fiction Discussion Re: Fantasy Writers, Stand Up!

    I'm more of a sci-fi person myself, though my Nanowrimo had some mystical elements to it. I like reading urban fantasy especially, but I seem to fail at writing it. ...

  • Fiction Discussion Re: what writing level should be used?

    Throw all energy into gradually being able to write what one has failed to write, or concentrate on polishing what one has already almost achieved? Maybe a combination of both? ...
