A: How do I sound like Thanos when I write? Thanos is a narcissist of the highest order. He speaks in such a commanding way because he believes unwaveringly that his every idea is superior to that of any other being. He twists every action, every event, every failure or victory or random coincidence into evidence that he is right. Because tha... (more) |

How to write a nice frame challenge? When answering questions on Stack Exchange, some of us challenge the assumptions of the author. These frame challenges can often be quite popular answers. This popularity, however, can simply be a measure of entertainment value, and not quality. Often the popular ones are even scolding the OP, making... (more) |

A: How to trick the reader into thinking they're following a redshirt instead of the protagonist? Write from the POV of the monster. This way the prey can be described in more dismissive terms. You can then add inner thoughts of the monster. Dismissive thoughts about how this one does what they all do. First they get scared and their blood makes them easier to find. Then they run, and tire themse... (more) |

Picking a theme as a discovery writer When I write I often don't have any great meaningful moral to share. I don't have a message that I want to convey to the reader. I often don't write about the nature of the battle between good and evil. Or what constitutes good. Or coming of age in a society that devalues adolescence. In fact I am of... (more) |

Writing about oneself objectively I was recently updating some of my Stack Exchange profiles and I remembered how much I hate writing about myself. It isn't just Stack Exchange profiles either. It's resume cover letters. It's college application personal statements. It's blog and book jacket blurbs. It isn't the easiest thing in the ... (more) |

Elongated vowel sounds When we speak sometimes we draw out certain sounds for emphasis. We also see this technique in song, for both emphasis as well as expanding the meter to make the words fit a certain rhythm. One way I have seen done, and I don't want to use, is simply a repetition of the vowel in question. Like so: ... (more) |

A: When blogging recipes, how can I support both readers who want the narrative/journey and ones who want the printer-friendly recipe? You can put your content into a `` nested normally within your blog post. Then you can load the content to a print page dynamically. Now you can print from your original page, with its images and story, or from your print page, which is more printer friendly. You can also modify your recipe from one ... (more) |

A: Is wanting to ask what to write an indication that you need to change your story? I couldn't disagree more! I almost argued in the comments but restrained myself because that would have been tangential and unproductive. Sure, asking what to write and not being able to write about something could coincide, but they aren't causally related in any way in my view. Let's look at the ... (more) |

Changing the meaning of well-established symbols Can we change the meaning of a well established symbol and use the newly defined symbol in our writing? If so how do we go about doing so? It am not talking about using a symbol in the context of its antithesis. That still relies on the original meaning. In such cases playing symbols in juxtapositio... (more) |

Describing a person. What needs to be mentioned? When describing the physical features of my more important characters, I often don't add much. I of course describe important features, especially if they will be relevant in the story. For example Harry Potter's scar. Part of my problem is my mental model of my characters is their personality and no... (more) |

A: Indicating multiple different modes of speech (fantasy language or telepathy) Many publishers set their own standards for justification and the choice may not be up to you. On top of that many books are simply justified. As time passes on your work may end up on different platforms and mediums under different publications and for that reason I would be loath to use right justi... (more) |

A: I'm trying to figure out whether to discovery write or outline. How do I choose which is right for me? Outlines are a tool. Nothing more. Should you use it? I don't know, that depends on you. Does the added structure help you focus and develop your story? or is it needless distraction that you frequently go off-script from anyway? Does building an outline help you brainstorm and develop your creativ... (more) |
