Hi there, I have a question for a new thing I am working on.. Let's say that there are 5 'countries', each with people that have developed DNA, which gives them some supernatural powers. This development of DNA makes the non-developed people/countries fear them of course, so they have...

Good evening ;) I am working on something atm, and I need all the superpowers I can get, and I was hoping you guys could maybe help me :) Are there some superpowers/magical powers/whatever you find especially awesome? Or maybe some superpowers that you would love to see, that hasn't been...

So... I'm kind of stuck pretty early on in the novel I'm trying to write atm. Because I don't have one of the first chapters all figured out yet. I do however have some of the later chapters kind of figured out. Is that weird? And do any of you ever skip some chapters and then start writing...

Oh, I'v been busy lately, so I haven't seen the responses until now. But thank you very much, all of you, for the advice. I will take it all into concideration and I will try a few different things before fully deciding what POV and what tense I'm using. I might research a bit more online as...

Thanks everybody! I don't think, I would be able to pull the different 1st person POV's off, but it was a good idea though! I think, I will try and write a chapter in both ways, and then compare and see from there :confused: The Deep Third POV also seems like something that could work for me. I...

I am outlining my first novel and have been doing that for quite some time actually. Anyway - what I need advice on is the POV. The main characters are these twin girls, and at first I actually wanted to write in 1st person from one of the girls' perspective, because she was the most...

Well, one of the reasons I want them to be darker skinned is because I find people with a glow very pretty and attractive. And that's also kind of what I want to portray with these creatures. They don't necessarily have to live underground, that was just my first thought.. But it totally makes...

But then I will be doing the same thing - just in reverse/opposite :) and it's kind of essential that the "good" ones are pale in this story. But I guess I will just have to not mention anything about the undergrounders' skin tones at all. Though I totally understand what you say about the...

That's actually pretty much it; because they stay underground, yes :) It's not the real world though :) it's a story of fantasy and fiction, but I see where you're coming from. Thanks for all the replies. I actually didn't think about it at first, and then suddenly I figured that some people...

Okay, so, I'm basically creating an image of my group of characters and then suddenly something hits me; I have the good ones on one side and the "bad" ones on the other side and look-wise (is that a word?) the good ones are caucasian/pale/fair creatures and the "bad" ones have dark skintones...

Oh yes, of course. It's not actually the case though. It's just a thought :) but if I did get that kind of idea from anyone I would definitely acknowledge it! You just never know if that's enough for people.

Thanks to everyone for replying to this! :) You are all very helpfull. I was mostly thinking something like if I was to ask someone to help me with an idea and they came up with something very useful, and lets say I use it in my story and it's a bestseller and I become a millionaire and this...

Everyone is so nice to answer questions and helping in here, and I'm sure if I asked some of my friends they too would help me come up with suggestions for solutions and stuff. What I am wondering is; Is any of the poeple that help me/you, entitled to anything in case anything turns public or...

I use OneNote and Word as well. I had no idea that there were cool programs like these aactually, that would make the writing easier. I think that the "WriteItNow" sounds pretty great. Especially since I'm not that far along :) maybe I'll try that.

Thank you, that's good to know! :) I'm glad that I'm not the only one doing my first "piece" ever in here (obviously I wouldn't be)! And I see where you're coming from; I already have a million changes to my story since I've read the forums in here, and it's actually a good thing, since I...
