I cannot go into that much detail about when I do it XD I don't even know how I do it, honestly. I just pick someone, make them a cat in this universe, and write. The process is all a blur.

Indeed it is. If I tried to explain the process by which I create a character step by step I don't think I could. I took Kai and turned him into Kye, gave her a mate who is one of the few cats without a real base except for what I knew of Warlocke's sire. Just took that and let Demonstone grow into his own cat. I think Kyestorm is more me than Kai LOL, but I let her run with herself. I suppose I let all my characters become their own purrsons :-) How I do so is just something I have always done. I suppose that is why all my work is character driven and not so much plot driven.

Makes sense. My stuff is definitely more plot driven, as I always start writing with my plot vaguely figured out. The rest falls into place as I go along. Like, I get the basic outline with a few added details and then just let it all go as I write along.

Like, I get the basic outline with a few added details and then just let it all go as I write along. Just about all my tales started with a character and a predicament, and as I wrote, the tale wove itself with each choice and action of each character. Sometimes, as with the book I am currently writing, there are several povs woven together, but as I write and let the characters do their thing, they come together and still even after a number of complex works I am still not exactly sure how. I don't think I could teach someone how to do it!

I can never do multiple POVs for a single story. It would mess me up too much, and I'm not into that kind of thing anyway. It's cool that you can do it, but I'm just not up for that kind of task XD

In epic scifi and fantasy multiple povs are common. But I didn't write multiple until I started the series. I can only hope that by time I finish Book III I will have woven things well, and my readers won't go "GAAAH" and drop the books! LOL

I really liked chapters 23 & 24! I love how much emphasis you put on joining together, compassion, and forgiveness. And it was sweet how Lizardblight and Lightstorm became close.
I'm so glad Deathkit is now called Stormkit! And how Littlefang wants to honor her sister by having the suffix -snow
Aw poor Lightstorm! That's so sad. Dang I did not see that coming! I love how you write! Aways leaving me anticipating, and unexpected and surprised when stuff happens.

phantomstar57 Lol, I doubt anybody would do that. You write very well, so it'll be fine. You've got nothing to worry about. mintedstar/fur Indeed. It's interesting to talk about, even though I hardly know how I can write things the way I do, lol. Pyropelt Always glad to read that you're enjoying my stuff and why! Lightstorm did make me very sad to write, but it had to be done. But I did enjoy letting him and Lizardblight become good friends. It was very fun to write. I do also enjoy the themes of compassion and such for the chapters while still maintaining the theme of bones within. This story has been very fun to write, and there's still some left to do!

I know what you mean. I love thinking up plot twist though. I just start playing scenarios around in my head until an impossible revelation turns up and then I try and work up foreshadowing to that.

My next story I am going to work on after this one is going to have a pretty big plot twist, honestly. Gonna be great! We'll see if you can figure it out when I start writing

That's why you're part of the evil author's organization.

Hey! It was refreshing that you didn't rehash the incident by having Ravenskull explain what happened to Lightstorm. Aw that was great that Lightstorm saw his son being born! And the other three were there too. I like that you included Ravenskull's mother, Mintstar, and Snowdapple since they were all special to Ravenskull.
I really liked that you had Lizardblight being there for Ravenskull and Bonewing, even though he wasn't her mate or his father. It reminded me of Hawkwing, Plumwillow, Finpaw, Dewpaw, and Reedpaw.
I liked your last chapter and the epilogue! Everything was wrapped up nicely.
I like the name Bonewing too! It's so neat. It was nice to see Stormheart grown up too!

Loved how you wrapped this up. It is one of my fav fics. I only saw one mistake in this paragraph“May I come in?” Stormpaw’s voice came from the Nursery entrance. He came to visit frequently, too. Him and I were still pretty close, and his company was always nice. I nodded in response, and the dark gray tabby tom padded in. “How are you this sun?” he asked and sat down in front of me and my nest. “You should be having those kits any time now. Any pains?” Read more: wcrpforums.com/thread/50136/ravenskulls-dream-chaps-epi-finished#ixzz5I9Aqdntl "Him and I were pretty close" should read "He and I were pretty close."

Pyropelt A.lways happy you enjoyed it! Good to see the aspects that made it so enjoyable, too. I, too, like the name Bonewing a lot. It's pretty cool and different. The scene where I showed the spirit cats watching her is probably one of my favorites from the whole story. It's so touching and sweet. I'm gonna miss Ravenskull and everyone, too. phantomstar57 Thanks! I'll go back and fix it at some point, lol. Glad you liked it! mintedstar/fur can't wait to see what you think of everything too!

This is why I read on the bus I guess. XD I've read everything but the Epilogue. Is a certain someone a callback to Shadowface, by chance?

Oooooo. How interesting. Anyway, I like how Light came up with Bone's name. It's very nice.
And I finished the epilogue. Bit sad. ;-; But I got to see the cute kits again! I liked the kits. And I completely forgot this was a story being told. XD

mintedstar/fur It makes the first person POV all the more relevant. Plus, I thought it was a cool little aspect to have on a fanfic.
