I'm writing a book . . . .?We Answered:
Writing longer prose is tricky. A good rule of thumb is to check your "person". Are you writing a narrative, where the 'third' person gives the background to a story and segues into the scenes? Are you writing in the 'first' person like, "Gee, this is really happening now"? Are you using a consistent verb tense? So many people write in the one tense and the next chapter is another, etc. Do you have a story outline completed? Many authors claim not to know the end of the story while they are writing, but how will you know where you are going in the book? Writing is like telling your best friend all about it. The feel should be as if you are talking, yet you are explaining things also. First book should not be an experiment, but have fun!!Luis Said:
A descriptive excerpt please?We Answered:
this one is from C.S. Lewis. Remember the Narnia series? He's the author. And this is a line from a novel based on the screenplay of his "real life" love affair with Joy. In the movie and the novel, he gives a lecture to a group of students in Medieval literature, about the courtly ideal of love. he said this: "The beauty of a rose lies in its being there - the moment you pluck it, it dies."Alex Said:
Is this a descriptive writing to you? and what else can i add?We Answered:
Tell more about Grandpa teaching you to hunt. How old were you, where did you hunt, did you have your own gun, did you hunt deer, squirrels, elk, bear, did you hunt from the ground or up in a treestand, did you ever kill anything, if yes what was it, how big, did you and Grandpa dress it, did Grandma cook it and everyone eat part of it?Also when you come home from school and look at Grandpa's picture what do you see? Does he have a beard, is he tall, does he wear glasses, did he have his arm around Grandma, what the Dodge Charger his, did you ever ride in it, what color was it, was the picture made where your Grandpa lived or at some other location. What do you remember about Grandpa, did he smoke, would he take you on walks, did he teach you how to hit a ball?
Right now when I think of your Grandpa, all I see is a man in a red shirt standing in front of a Dodge Charger. I want to see, feel, hear, smell, your Grandpa. GOOD LUCK!
