Finally posted something that I wanted to post for a while. Romance is something that I love to write and to be honest, it is hard to make the romantic scenes to make the readers to feel the emotions.
By the way, romantic scenes needs to fit on the plot, because most of the time it can make the readers confused from the romantic scene from nowhere. Note that.
Tags:
i know that sometimes we feel like the plot twist is not fitting on the plot of the story and I get it, because I been there too.
Here’s the thing: make the plot twist that fits in your story, make another one and receive feedback for your beta reader from your plot twist.
Easy. 😌

let’s talk about slow burn.
a lot of writers put the typical trope, like enemies to lovers and they forget there’s more trope that can use for the slow burn because, in fact, slow burn is the building of a feeling for someone.

Conflict is basically the sauce of the plot, which it helps a lot for the characters to develop even better during the story.
In those conflicts, there’s different types of conflicts:
— physical level
— social level
— conflict level
— personal level
— psychological level

giving the importance of the characters is very important while you are creating dialogues on the story, especially on the secondary characters.
Most of the time, the writer takes the spotlight of the secondary characters and focus to much on the primary characters, which it causes some issues on the plot.
To give a voice and the spotlight from the characters, you need to:
— create a backstory of your character
— do a character study
— explore your character’s dark side
— create authentic dialogues
Doing those steps, you will be able to give the spotlight that the characters need in your story.
tags:
The importance of a hero figure in the story is very strong to the construction of your plot and it can motivate more your readers to read it more and know more of hero’s past.
In this case, you have to develop:
— the importance of the hero in the story
— characteristics
— story in multiple characters
— coherence
— personality and goals
— ethics and morals
— perfections and imperfections
From that, you will get the mastery of the plot, which it will be develop bits by bits on the story.

Rating your characters is easy to classify them but make that you fix them to the place that they belong.
What are the most type of characters that you use?
tags:
Creating the characters and giving them the spotlight needed is not easy, but you can find inspiration on them from people you know in real life, fictional characters and your own persona.
The elements needed are necessary for you to build the character as a whole and prepare for the characters to be detached on the plot.

hi, came back with everything. it was a busy day but here we are!
dialogues are quite impressive from how they can describe your characters so it is very important to practice and improve the dialogues in your story.

writing hot scenes is kinda weird, I know
To be honest, it took me a year or two to start to know how to write hot scenes on the story, which is a considerable time to learn something and be ready to apply on work.
there’s no secret, just practice by writing and study by reading books with hot scenes and analyze how do they do it.
I hope it works :)

Writing tips are very essential to improve your writing and make your writing more fluid, easier to read and more professional for your readers.
Starting this week, I will be starting this unit that will help a lot with the audience that is a writer and I will leave it completely organized so that everyone can access it.
The first steps are the most essential information that a writer could know before starting his career and starting on the right foot. Many times, writers do not start their career right due to lack of information.
There is a lot of information on how to use a draft and make a book, what you can use to be active as a writer, books that can help you write better, how you can learn to study literature and much more.
Overall update;
Hi guys. I know that I been out for a few weeks because I still being a student from college and I had a lot of coursework so I couldn’t work much on the content of the Monacruz Academy and the book.
But after April, I hope that I will come back with good news and new updates.
Sorry for the delay,
Carly
Glimpse of Us update;
Just to let y’all know that I will post chapters of Glimpse of Us on every Sunday and not Saturday or Monday.
Why did I changed? Because I’m changing my daily timetable and I see that I cannot publish any chapter on Saturday or Monday, but Sunday will be the right day that I have full time to write, edit and publish it.
Love you all,
Carly
Procrastinating is ignoring or postponing, the action or habit of delaying activities or situations that should receive attention, replacing them with less relevant or more pleasurable ones for fear of facing them. That said, today's topic focuses on this Achilles heel of many writers: not focusing and postponing our writing time to do something else.
How many times has it happened that you say "I'm going to write", come home with that in mind, but get distracted by watching a movie or something, ending the day's productivity? It's all too easy to get out of writing for those of us who tend to procrastinate for anything - whether we find ourselves watching Netflix, chatting, checking Facebook, Twitter or Instagram or just taking a nap.
1. Set your time: Setting time limits always helps you find more of it. If you decide to write for an hour a day, set a timer or alarm on your computer, cell phone or tablet to mark the time you spend writing.
2. Carry out your ideas: The worst thing we can do as writers is just sit back and think about what's going to happen next in our story. You need to identify what triggers your inspiration to write and research.
3. Write silently: try to do this when there aren't many people around you demanding your attention. We know that sometimes it's hard to avoid, but we must commit to trying to find the ideal space and conditions to write alone.
4. Turn off the phone: try, or put it away from you. Having your phone close at hand is one of the biggest distractions anyone can have when sitting down to write. Even if you write on your cell phone, try to put it in airplane mode for at least the time you have set aside to write. That way, you won't be distracted from your purpose.
5. Have clear goals: if you're one of those people who thinks they're going to write a book in a month and feel motivated to do so at first. Thank you very much and I hope it helped!

Amor por palavras
Isto é uma página de Fanfics sobre Kpop, principalmente BTS. Por um bom tempo, estive vendo que a literatura e poesia é além de palavras, pois as palavras vem com um sentimento tão pesado e significativo que pode até definir algo tão grande. Amor por palavras me dominou desde nova e sei que pode ser demais por chegar ao ponto de escrever fanfics.
Tudo começou por conhecer o kpop e começar vendo pequenos imagines que poderia perfeitamente criar histórias imaginárias pelos K-idols. Fiz uma oneshot e mostrei para algumas amigas que gostavam de Kpop e, foi uma coisa que nem eu estava á espera, mas foi aí que comecei a escrever.
O amor que você sente pelas palavras, não é apenas usá-la pela pessoa que ama e sim, para descrever o que sente pela pessoa. Descrever como a pessoa é. Talvez não possa ser uma pessoa. Pode ser um objeto. Um lugar. Um astro. A Lua já faz muito exemplo para a maioria das pessoas, mas neste caso, é a coisa que ama. Então, para mim a coisa que amo é BTS.
BTS é um grupo de Kpop que foi o primeiro que me deu a intenção que iria aprender muito na vida com as suas músicas, então eu escolhi eles. Kim Namjoon, Kim Seok Jin, Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok, Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung, Jeon Jungkook. Sim, são setes membros que mudaram a minha vida.
