The NonVerbal Thesaurusby OokamiKasumiLibraries: Writing TutorialsPublished on Dec 3, 2010 7:35 pm / 1 Chapter(s) / 2 Review(s)Updated on Dec 3, 2010 7:35 pmWatch the average conversation between two people. 90% of that conversation isn't in what's Spoken, it's in what they are DOING while they are speaking. It's in their Body Language. Body-language cues in your story alert the reader by SHOWING them what is going on in a character’s head without Telling them, and without resorting to using the most often repeated word in fiction: said. |

Government of the Youkaiby ChiharuLibraries: Writing TutorialsPublished on Nov 25, 2010 10:05 pm / 1 Chapter(s) / 0 Review(s)Updated on Nov 25, 2010 10:05 pmI'm a huge fan of Inuyasha, and I love to read fanfiction. I've read enough fanfiction to realize that in almost every story, there was some type of system used when describing the socioeconomic classes. So, I've decided to make all of these terms and orders easier to understand by writing a sort of Youkai Government Tutorial. If I missed anything or you would like to mention a few things, feel free to send a message! :) |

Plotting: Murphy's Law Methodby OokamiKasumiLibraries: Writing TutorialsPublished on May 4, 2010 9:43 pm / 1 Chapter(s) / 2 Review(s)Updated on May 4, 2010 9:43 pmThis method is extremely effective when plotting out Adventure stories of any kind. In fact, Van Helsing, National Treasure, Inkheart, Pirates of the Caribbean, Indiana Jones, Tomb Raider, the James Bond movies, most RP video games, and almost all Horror stories and films follow this pattern. It's also surprisingly effective when plotting out an Angsty Romance! |

Writing Series Fictionby OokamiKasumiLibraries: Writing TutorialsPublished on Jan 16, 2010 11:27 pm / 1 Chapter(s) / 0 Review(s)Updated on Jan 16, 2010 11:27 pmProfessionally published Series books and Serial episodes, whether it's a TV program, a set of novels, or a comic book series are EACH written as whole stories because a whole story is more likely to catch and hold the attention of new readers or viewers than a random hunk of story from the middle of a longer work. |
