#WordWeavers March 17. Did you ever receive formal education in creative writing? Some, not much. I took a course in college and it didn't go well. My instructor was very particular and kind of elitist about proper writing. It did not align with my interests.

#ScribesAndMakers March 10. Reveal the answer to yesterday's poll. From yesterday's post: https://indieauthors.social/@willelm/116198879445694862 The next line is: "to catch them is my big test". It's from the Pokemon theme song. Good on the 60% of you who know your Pokemon.

#WordWeavers March 8. How do you approach stereotypes while creating characters? I don't think much about stereotypes while creating characters. Since it's a secondary world, the stereotypes of our world don't really play into it. I do have in-world stereotypes that the characters talk about, but that's only really for some specific purpose.

#ScribesAndMakers Mar 6. How do you choose a title for your book? I really struggled with it. But I just made a list of possible terms and iterated them together until I found a few that I liked. Then I chose one.

#WritersCoffeeClub Mar 5. How do you make sure you don’t leave plot holes? I reread the story to catch any plot holes, but it's also what I tell my alpha reader (my wife) to look for while she's reading it. It is a lot easier to get her perspective on what's missing.

#WordWeavers Mar 5. What’s the most supportive/uplifting thing you heard related to writing? For me? That other people have liked the story and want to continue reading it. In general? That other people find this whole thing a bit overwhelming. It can be a lot to take on and I certainly feel it at times, so it's nice to know that I am not alone.

#WordWeavers Mar 2. Do you write scenes out of order? If so, how do you decide their arrangement? Not intentionally. I have had scenes I've moved around while editing, but I usually write scenes in the order they appear in the book, not always in timeline order though. For the scenes I've moved around, I just found they fit better in another place. The characters revealed something better left for later. Plus, I changed some of the lead up to the scene.

#WritersCoffeeClub Mar 1. What is the fundamental goal you seek to achieve with your current WIP? To win the Nobel Prize in literature. Short of that, it's really just continuing the story.

#ScribesAndMakers Feb 28. How did your month go?

Although I did finish my second round of edits on the sequel to SotE, I've basically done no writing this month. It's been an absolute struggle to get anything started. Life has been overwhelming and I just haven't been able to write in the times I had available. Hopefully March will be better.

Not great. The second half of this month has been a real struggle to get anything done. I've been overwhelmed and had really low motivation. I'm looking forward to spring.

#WordWeavers Feb 27. Which of your characters do you find especially interesting? Why? I think Vrai is the most interesting to me. He has a pretty complex backstory, that we learn more about in the spin-off and though he's discovering the world's secrets along with the characters, he has a much different perspective on it.

Yes but only if I don't think the story is salvageable. It's rare I give up on a story, I try a lot to write myself out of a lot of issues, but if I don't feel like the story works, I'll abandon it.
