Sometimes life and our brains make it difficult ๐ setting small goals is a great idea!

What are your favorite tropes?
Some of mine:
๐ found family
๐ prophecies
๐ sibling teams
๐ mad scientist
๐ grumpy x sunshine
๐ beautiful decay
๐ overpowered guy now responsible for a baby/child that he will defend w his life
(Not even funny how the last one has me in a chokehold ๐)

Thatโs awesome ๐

06.11.2023 01:13 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Yes ๐
06.11.2023 01:11 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Oh I love that goal! Thatโs awesome!
05.11.2023 21:46 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Oh yeah I can see that. Anything that takes away from reading being fun is not a good thing! Thank you!
05.11.2023 21:46 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Nice! Yes, once we achieve our goals I feel like itโs so tempting to keep immediately raise the bar, but itโs nice to step back and acknowledge what we did

Do you set a reading goal for the year, like a certain number of books or trying different genres? Do you think youโll make it by the end of the year?
My goal is to read more books than last year (46). Iโm at 42 rn (crushed it over the summer then got sick ๐
). But I think I can do it!

Big casts are fun but there's power in a tight cast too.
Recently, I realized I could replace a walk-on, nameless character who never appears again, with an existing one โ which sets up some pretty cool foreshadowing that will pay off in book 2. Double duty!

Thatโs so cool! The perfect illustration of your reflections
02.11.2023 22:40 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Youโre so welcome!
02.11.2023 22:39 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Thatโs a really interesting thought ๐ค

02.11.2023 19:33 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0You might enjoy The Raventree Society by J E Purrazzi. It is set in reality vs fantasy so not sure if itโs quite what youโre looking for, but it definitely delivers on the ghosts and curses
02.11.2023 19:31 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Oh interesting
02.11.2023 18:55 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Yes! You need to be setting up someone else to step into that role. Hopefully someone whose journey the readers are invested in
01.11.2023 20:57 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Thereโs a big risk with making the readers mad when you kill off a MC ๐
01.11.2023 11:21 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0๐ค I am intrigued
01.11.2023 00:42 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0All of it ! Lol

Be yourself, #turtlewriters. If youโre always comparing yourself adversely to other writers, youโll never discover just how amazing you are.โค๏ธYou have your own unique writing voice. Todayโs a good day to start believing in it. Thatโs your key to success! ๐ Good luck. ๐๐ข
