Teens Writing for Teens, issue 6

I did a chapter list for Invincible. It orginally had 20 chapters in it, but I cut out a couple that I decided weren't needed, so now it looks like I'll have 18, but we shall see what happens.

I think OSAI is going to end up having at least 45 chapters.

My urban fantasy ended up with 40+ chapters. Had to move from viewpoint to viewpoint all the time.

I'm not doing it by word count so I think I'm okay for the amount of chapters for now!

And now I am going to bed. 'Night, guys.

Just saw this:

"Game of Thrones reminds me of Twitter a lot cause there are 140 characters and terrible things are constantly happening."

-dead-

Hahaha.

That's really funny but so true. There is always something horrible happening on GoT.

140 characters....

.... In the books? :0

I still haven't started reading the first book. I nearly died at the sight of the page count.

There are probably more.

107 major and supporting characters in the first season and a half of the show.

Keep in mind that plenty is cut from the show.

There are hundreds and hundreds of characters in the books, perhaps even a thousand. I think there are over a thousand characters in the Wheel of Time series, so I wouldn't be surprised if there were just as many in A Song of Ice and Fire.

There's a reason why these books come with extensive glossaries.

Yup, over a thousand in the books.

How does one go about writing a thousand characters? That's a lot of voices lol

3rd person... and ASOIAF isn't particularly voicey.

I've owned the first book for like ever. I really need to get around to reading it...

I saw the Avengers today. FANTASTIC movie. I'm kind of hoping for a sequel.

I bet I'm the only person in the world who hasn't seen The Avengers yet. I'm not suprised that it was good, though. Joss Whedon is a genius.

Yup, they're making a sequel, and Black Widow's getting her own movie!!!!

YAY! I hope Hawkeye is in it!

Yep, super excited for the Black Widow movie. And the next Avengers movie.

Seriously? That would be awesome!

lol Elysium I haven't seen it either, maaaybe if Wasp was in it. I've always been more of a DC Universe gal anyway.

SEE IT. SO AMAZING.

According to Google, Joss Whedon isn't sure if he's going to commit to Avengers 2. If he doesn't, I will cry. Avengers 2 might be a good movie without him, but it can only be a GREAT movie with him.

Awww. I hope he changes his mind.

Joss.. he was Hawkeye?

BlackWidow doesn't really appeal to me. Mainly because all through her career I've never seen what's so spectacular about her. So a BW movie is also kinda meh.

Stoked about The Amazing SpiderMan coming out soon, though.

Joss Whedon was the director and I'm not sure but I think he wrote the screenplay, as well.

I've never heard of any of these characters. I know who Thor and Iron Man are, but as for Hawkeye & Black Widow...I'm drawing a blank. Was never into comic books, even though I LOVE superhero movies. I own almost all of the ones that have came out so far.

What she said. And he did write the screenplay as well. He's also responsible for the pure genius that was Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly.

I was never into comic books either. I never really watched superhero movies (Spiderman, Batman, etc...never seen them) until I heard about the Avengers coming out.

Hawkeye is very briefly in Thor. He's the assassin with the really sweet bow. Black Widow is in Iron Man 2 (which I am currently watching because I've never seen it).
