trolls' bane · 12-10-2005, 06:29 PM

Don't listen to them, that's what they want you to think. I never saw anyone posting in my ZAQ-1 thread besides Katya, Lotesse, and someone else.

Acalewia · 12-12-2005, 05:33 PM

there was a ZAQ-1 thread?

trolls' bane · 12-15-2005, 01:18 AM

Unfortuneately, it's lowercase, and I'm too lazy to ask a mod to change it.

Yeah, it's at the bottom of this forum, or the next page of this forum.

Tip: it can make life really easy if you plot out your story. It doesn't have to fit the roadmap, but it gives you an idea of how your story's gonna go, and you can also have the climax, etc. planned out good.

If you want to get unstuck, try reading something or coming up with a rogue plot. Or throw in a conventional plot to get started again...you can rewrite later. For example, on your first book, you could end it with the crowning, and write a sequel where some evil pops up.

Interesting plots!

Well, as for ZAQ-1, I'm not to comfortable with inviting multiple civilizations of extra-terrestrial intelligence. So, I've decided that for the Milky Way Chronicles (of which ZAQ-1 is part) to include one extra-terrestrial species, basically a race of giant rats with telepathic powers that also happen to be autotrophs.

I'm writing(or thinking of writing) a couple of books. I'm not very far on them yet, and some I haven't even started writing. Yeah, but anyway, I don't know any sites that will help you, but my advice would be to think of your idea and start writing! Worry about grammar and stuff like that later.

Definitely true. At least for me. I use best grammar possible, my problem is...well...consistency. Can't seem to remember certain aspects of my writing, and then if I change a part, I forget to change another, and then I forget which is more accurate, and it gets real hard.
