I have been slaving on mine own WIP. ‘Tis a trying journey.
(Just spent a day trying to write deliberately bad poetry because said WIP is a romance novel parody.)
May 8, 2018 at 5:02 pm #72162@valtmy Ah, a trying journey indeed. Alas, but my WIP is neither smoothly nor easily written. I pray you send some encouragement my way, that I may with renewed hope attempt to conquer a heroine who has vouchsafed to swoon at every inconvenient moment and to weep at the recollection of past troubles. She is becoming a great trial and nearly have I begun to doubt that she or I will ever survive this book.
Ha! That is a strangely glorious concept. How does this for bad love poetry?
You are so beautiful, my love
If I could have you I would fly like a dove
But you do not love me and I must moan
Until the day when I will no longer groan
For then you will return my love and we
Will live forever happily.______By one Rochellaine, who is nearly embarrassed to put her name under it
"Sylvester - Sylvester!"
May 8, 2018 at 5:27 pm #72167Hmm…
May 8, 2018 at 5:27 pm #72168Methinks you should be writing this WIP for you mayhap are better than me.
Here’s some encouragement for you and Chara:
The writer’s pen touched the inchoate page by end of pointed nib,
And, starting with that first drop of ink, brought her to glory from the crib.______ By valtmy, who is reconsidering her decision to insert poetry in her story
May 8, 2018 at 5:47 pm #72169@valtmy Chara and myself do thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Perchance there is hope for our story to be written without the tragedy of it costing us both our lives. How does your own book progress?
But now, I pray you, why did you this harm to me, to make me intent on writing verses of love? My head is filled with thoughts such as this:
My love is like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in spring
She dances on her red, red toes
But ne’er attempts to sing
Because she knows that if she sang
I’d never love her after
Her voice would but produce a twang
And I’d fall down in laughter____By Rochellaine, who now wonders if she’ll ever be able to stop!

May 8, 2018 at 9:02 pm #72182*timidly steps in* I think I might be able to write for a teensy bit.

What are you working on? I had a really weird and complicated idea for a retelling of Robin Hood today…
@jenwriter17 Hello! I’m not even gonna ask how your characters are doing. Not even gonna. 😛Um…how are your characters doing?

May 8, 2018 at 9:24 pm #72186Right now I’m not really working on anything but if I get up and get my computer I’m going to read some more of Jen’s book and hopefully catch up.
