Just thought I would say hello. Have done some Creative Writing courses before and am working on what I hope will be a novel which is essentially a thriller with a supernatural element I guess. Have about 10'00 words done but am struggling to work out how I move on. Have some ideas for plot but just not sure how I will make the idea develop in an interesting way. Anyway, bye for now Jonathan
Hello Jonathan, Welcome to the Writing Forums. Here's hoping that spending some time among this daft bunch will inject some inspiration into building up your novel. If you haven't explored the site yet, you should probably do so soon. Newcomers often gravitate to the Lounge, the Word Games, or the Review Room, but there is much more to be discovered if you poke in the corners. Remember to check out our FAQ as well! As for the Review Room, new joiners often wonder why we do things a bit differently on this site than on other writing sites. We emphasize reviewing as a critical writing skill. Training your eye by reviewing other people's work helps you improve your own writing even before you present it for others to see. Therefore, we ask members to review other people's writing before posting work of their own. The Review Room forums on this site, therefore, are true workshops, not just a bulletin board for displaying your work (and on that note, please only post each item for review in one Review Room forum). See this post, Why Write Reviews Before Posting My Work? for more information. Enjoy your stay here, and have fun!
