Blog Tour Kick-Off! The Last Winter Moon
Guest Post – Voice Over and Writing
Another stop for The Cycle of the Six Moons “Name Before the Masses” tour byGoddess Fish Promotions! I’ve written a guest post over at The Reading Addict. The topic is how one of my hobbies has enriched my writing.
Here’s an excerpt:
I read pa
ssages out loud dramatically to myself to make sure that the words convey the emotion I want.
I also grew up with JRPGs. Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI-IX, Earthbound… This was before voice acting was common in video games, and I often wondered what the characters would sound like with voices. In senior year of high school, I finally had the basic technology to give voices to the characters.
Interview with Rogue’s Angels
Got a short interview with Rogue’s Angels today 😀 Head on over to the blog and read about which character I’d like to be if I were in The Cycle of the Six Moons! (Spoiler alert: it’s none of the main characters.)
- What elements are necessary components for this genre?
The Cycle of the Six Moons is YA fantasy. I think that the most important element in writing fantasy, and even sci-fi, is world-building. The author needs to know the laws of the world, whether it’s physical, magical, even legal. Anything less, and the world doesn’t feel alive, and with fantasy, you need your readers to feel as if this world actually exists.
Guest Post – Why Video Game Music Is the Best Music to Listen to While Writing
Today is another stop for The Cycle of the Six Moons “Name Before the Masses” tour by Goddess Fish Promotions! I’ve written a guest post over at Sharing Links and Wisdom. If you can’t tell by the appropriately named title, it’s about why video game music is the best music to listen to while writing.
Here’s an excerpt:
I’m a gamer. I have been since elementary school. One important element of video games that I found helped immerse me into a fantasy world was its music. It’s designed to set the tone, help you concentrate on the task at hand, exemplifies the written dialogue of the characters you encounter, or even makes your heart race during boss battles.
Since I was about ten years old, I’ve used video game music to help set the scene. Unlike pop songs or ballads, there are no lyrics to distract you, listener and fellow writer, from the words that you want to write. Here are examples of the kind of music I listen to and the scenes they fit.
Setting up the hometown of your hero before adventure calls him forth? Try the Outside Island theme from Wind Waker!
Feel the joy and innocence of everyday life? Feel the peaceful breeze of the ocean?
Guest Post – Storytelling and Food
Today begins the first stop of The Cycle of the Six Moons “Name Before the Masses” tour by Goddess Fish Promotions! I’ve written a guest post over at Long and Short Reviews YA. If you can’t tell by the appropriately named title, it’s about the importance of food in storytelling.
I even made a nifty pie chart about the usage of the five senses!
