Hi, everyone!!! The title says it all. One of my amazing writing buddies started a NaNoWriMo writing group for fantasy writers!!! Anyone who's interested, give me your NaNo username and I'll add you!
I was just wondering if anyone likes D&D (Dungeons & Dragons) or role-playing in general?
Um... is that a video game or something? I think I've read a book called Dungeons and Dragons. Is that what you mean?
I love doing role plays though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It really is the question. I've been writing my book for the past seven or eight months without any special powers at all. My characters are just regular, powerless shapeshifters. However... I sort of want to have special powers again. Strictly elemental—water, earth, fire, air—because otherwise it gets too complicated for me. I'd be asking my older sister this question, but she's still sleeping.
Should my characters be able to wield the elements? Or should I just stick with what I already decided?
Important things that might weigh into your response:
No, I wouldn't have to start from the beginning of my manuscript to add this in.
Not everyone would have a power. Only about a third of the entire population and even less of my characters.
This doesn't overwhelm me—I just wonder if anyone thinks it would add to my story or not.
I've written powers like this before, and—not to toot my own horn—I write them fairly well.
Powers in SMV?
Do it! I think it would be really cool.
Mmm... I don't think it would add much to the story.
Also, I have thirty thousand words in my WIP right now!! 🎉
I can't really tell you what to do because it's your story, not mine! What do you feel would be best? And I know you're probably really conflicted about the answer, but that question is pretty much true. Picture yourself writing your novel. Which one can you imagine carrying out…
Hey guys! It's sure been a while. I've been posting on and off for the past couple month, but November-December was more... off than on. Sorry about that! Just wanted to let you all know that, starting today, I will be posting every week on Tuesdays again. (No excuses!) Happy new year!
Welcome back! And happy new year! Can’t wait for more updates on your story Leah!
