I admit I do find it hard with structure and knowing what is important, as I might think something is important while others not, as some simple exchange between Raein and Conlan, while it may not seem to have any consequences it could just be a simple way someone speaks to someone they've known...

Awesome thanks for your thought, I do find I like to also be very descriptive and all that I've had that mentioned a lot, and it's hard to get out of that habit cause I can never find fewer words to explain how I want it to sound, I guess I could still have all the descriptions just need to find...

How do you or does one tell what they've written sounds like there is to info or too much story that there is an info dump? I've had it come up in another forum I'm in with some of the work that I've posted a snippet of but too me I don't see an info dump. But I guess the thought is how do we...

I don't know if this is too much for an excerpt here, but I feel if I don't post the whole convo thing it might sound weird, so I hope this isn't too many words. And thank you for taking the time to reply. "You're late!" Conlan shouted as the door to the workshop slammed shut as Raein walked...

Yeah totally agree, I've been writing for ages, but I never seem to finish most projects I think out of the 12 or more I've done I've finished maybe 2 I think. I've never been one for planning, to be honest, I don't know how haha I've always written with the flow and that could be why. I don't...

Thanks all for the help and ideas, I'd like to post the first 500 odd words of what I've started with the rewrite which brought up this question but I am not sure if there is a place for me to do that here?

yeah, when I look at what I've got there are story elements, as say person A has asked something along the lines of, can you tell me what you know of x people. and then person B goes yes, something about them, but then goes and asks have they got what they needed for a job.

I've got something akin to Battlemages in some of my books, which as mentioned strong physically and mentally, that will don armor whether it be plate armor, chain mail, or whatever but will fight with sword and shield, as well as magic when it's needed. Either used for misdirection or for...

Hi everyone, Not sure if this is the right spot, but how do you all know if there is too much dialogue in your paragraphs? I am rewriting chapter 1 of my novel and there seems to be a lot of talking, and I'm not sure if it should be lessened or not, what are your thoughts?

I've never thought of that, yeah I seem to like starting a lot of stories and have so many on the go it sucks haha, plus so many other starts to ones I've sort of started writing, I just don't know how to get past it to be honest cause I get to a point then I feel like I get walled and can't...

Thanks maker :) I'm hoping so, ive started yet another story mind you only a few sentences long before I stopped cause I wasntnsure if its a good start I should of worked on some of my other stories haha, but I dont know where to start with questions

Hi Everyone, *waves excitedly* The names Archunt3r, Arc, or Archie is fine :) I am new here and I thought I'd take a moment to introduce myself. I write a lot of Sword and Sorcery styled books. I am currently stuck with writer's block but I am having the urge to write so I'm hoping I can get...
