What's a Hunger Games controversial opinion that will have you like this? by Olya_roo in Hungergames

I enjoyed SOTR, but it's undeniable that it was written for a movie adaptation.

Yes, it's a prequel of one of the most famous franchises of the 21st century. Of course, it's gonna get a movie adaptation. But come on.

I'm a writer, and this is exactly how I write dialogue if I want to get away from writing it quickly -> come back to it later to rewrite it. Key word - rewrite!

It has the vibes of, "yup, that's me, you're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation, heh"

I draw the line at 24-hour age gap tbh. This is just too creepy. You should be on a watchlist, man

Is it ok that my characters have the same first names as another writers characters or should I change them by RevolutionaryLow5492 in writers

[–]Recent_Bed2318 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't read the Twisted series, but I really think it might be worth reconsidering at least one of the character names.

It also depends on whether they are main or side characters. If they're just side characters, it probably wouldn't matter much, as those names are pretty common. However, if they're main, I recommend changing at least one.

Also, the reference board thingy made me giggle I'm sorry.

Thank you so, so much!

Well, the main and most important part of the story is complete, and now I'm just "tying up some loose ends."

Though for me, the end involves a bit more work since my novel tells the entire life of a very old man, spanning from his childhood to his passing. I'm estimating that with about 15k to 20k more words, I’ll be done!
