I used to go on a rant of all the things that happen in the book for like half an hour, but then I started to be able to compact it into something sort of like this- (character) goes on an adventure and there's an epic villain who wants to stop them. XD LOL! But usually I just say what genre it is!;)<br />-Emma-Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16631576642869052349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445138433367622139.post-81754754726337682842016-07-29T19:29:47.595-05:002016-07-29T19:29:47.595-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Daisy @ Caught Daydreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10880313613863020777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445138433367622139.post-63793380803736831362016-07-29T00:08:16.064-05:002016-07-29T00:08:16.064-05:00BTW I nominated you for the Liebster Award!!

XD ...Ugh, I don't like answering this question. XD A lot of times it's well-meaning and everything, but sometimes I can tell they're asking it to gauge how smart I am, and they're just waiting for me to give a stupid explanation about a stupid story so they can be content in believing I'm stupid. And I don't like sharing my uncompleted ideas with other people, for multiple reasons. They're mine and I don't have to share them. But yeah, it might not go over well to whip out a weapon and demand a rephrase, although it can be tempting, tbh. Usually I just say what genre it is and then mention one of the themes, like, "It's a fantasy about revenge." Another thing you could say is, "It's a murder mystery. This person gets murdered for being too nosy, and this detective needs to figure out who did it. Spoilers: It was me."Liz Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823595869843889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445138433367622139.post-14858565146721984212016-07-25T22:30:39.701-05:002016-07-25T22:30:39.701-05:00Ahaha.... these are too funny!

Well, that was the original plan. But I...Exactly! <br /><br />Well, that was the original plan. But I'm actually re-plotting Raiders' Rise at the moment, possibly with drastic changes. So I don't know whether I'll use it as my example or my Beauty and the Beast retelling. Actually, I might use both - one as an example of a more complete project and one as an example of a more complicated one. We'll see. :DRachelle O'Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14414561666549371254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445138433367622139.post-35795626447042442832016-07-25T18:59:59.453-05:002016-07-25T18:59:59.453-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Rachelle O'Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14414561666549371254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445138433367622139.post-67804978861115030392016-07-25T18:53:20.541-05:002016-07-25T18:53:20.541-05:00Ooooh, yas.
