Heya, I'm wondering if anyone can help me with this problem I've been having. I've been trying to write a fantasy story, with perspectives from 2 characters who have been reluctant friends since before the story began, but one of these would be a villain and betray the other. Yet, by having her narrate as well I have to let the reader know her intentions early on otherwise the twist would seem poorly executed and I want to keep the character's actions real to her. Should I remove her more villainous tendencies and just have her unreliable and a foil of the protagonist, or would there be a way to make her the villain? Should I just change the villain? Please help! |
Forgot my idea. Ugly Christmas Sox’s is much better |
Thank you so much MirandaCookies IS IN COLLEGE , Ugly Christmas Sox and northernwrites !!! |
Just trying to help. |
Good morning, I've recently read and reviewed an incredible story by jabberwocky . It's definitely worth the read!
The introduction is coming of age one summer, and it involves extremely well-fleshed out characters. |
Recently, on my journeys through newsfeed I found:
It's a brilliant idea by CHRISTMAS cub-BELLS R RINGING! and I can't recommend visiting the page enough. If you're looking to share an interesting book to others or in need of a good read, then this is the page for you! |
Thank you for the plug on Newsfeed, Becca Winchester! I've already borrowed the audiobook on Libby (a library app) and started listening to it while hanging laundry on the line. So far, so good! |
Hi Becky! I’m Miranda, and I am diving into random ports today. Are you enjoying WDC so far? Your port is great, and I can’t wait to read more. ¡Adíos! |
Hi MirandaCookies IS IN COLLEGE Thank you! I'm loving WDC so far; I've found lots of great contests and now I'm trying to continue some stories I've been writing. How are you liking WDC?? |
Woo hoo! That’s great Becca Winchester ! I’m loving it so far; I’ve never found such a better community. Well, now you have a new person you can email or whatever, yay! |
Yay! Send me an email anytime! MirandaCookies IS IN COLLEGE I agree- there's so many friendly people! |
Anyone looking for a movie to watch? A movie that is entertaining but technically amazing with motifs and symbolism? BAD TIMES AT THE EL ROYALE I watched Bad Times At The El Royale (2018) with my family last night. Such an amazing movie! Very detailed and well-thought out plot. The symbolism of the mirrors and duality was excellently added and scattered throughout- highly effective! The runtime of 2hrs20 flew by and I was gripped to my seat watching the performances. The soundtrack made this movie perfect for me! Set in the early 70s, the jazzy R&B/Soul soundtrack could not have suited the movie any better! All of the cast were amazing, but for me the stand out performances were Cynthia Erivo and Lewis Pullman. I can't praise this movie enough and would definitely recommend it! (Plus, no awkward scenes to cringe over with my family!) |
My oldest daughter is a huge Supernatural fan. She's been to a few conventions and even has a couple of photos with her, Jensen & Jared. Have a wonderful day. |
Hi Merry_Mikey - Wow! I'm jealous! I'd love to hear all about it!! Did she enjoy the conventions??? How were Jensen and Jared?? |
Hi Writers and Reviewers! What book, poem or film would you recommend? It could be an extract, or the whole piece! Maybe instead of sharing a film, poem or book, you'd like to share a great piece you've seen on Writing.com! Perhaps it's based on the plot, character development or the technical devices (e.g. grammar, setting description, sound, editing, lighting) or anything else... I'd love to hear what piece of literature/media you've loved or been inspired by! |
