@Aratrea since the mentorship isn’t official or anything (aka I’m too nervous to ask outright xP) it’s mostly just talking via email. She’s really encouraging to me and pushing me to be better and keep plugging away when it’s tough. She’s really good for bouncing ideas off and giving experienced input and thoughts. I used to talk with her more…[Read more]

Also:

You know you’re a writer when fainting, evil laughs, and dramatic death scenes are prized skills among your little sisters and brother.

You know you’re a writer when:

You let your siblings kidnap you so you know what it feels like (and also so you can become an actual escape artist, which I now am)

You say something from one of your stories, someone asks what that means, and you start explaining your whole book, with all of the backstory and everything. And then they have this…[Read more]

@aratrea Ooh, pretty! Love the green!

@Catwing. Please don’t, they are my first draft and actually pretty horrible.

That is a good idea, I can totally see that happening!

Here is the prophecy….

Ember-girl only will find the heir,
Leaf-boy only will enter the Ne’er,
Both will be needed, to put all to rights,
Both will be needed, in justice’s fight,
With the hearts of dragons,…[Read more]

Wow! @that_writer_girl_99 that was awesome! Ok, I will try to answer your questions as coherently as possible.

-The backstory of the lost prince; Prince Darien is the heir to the throne of Crystalwynn, which also means he will rule the entire continent. One day, he goes out hunting and never comes back. The people search for months, but no one…[Read more]

@Overcomer sort of-ish? (putting aside a dozen or more amazing writerly friends) I have two authors that have really helped me a lot and I met one of them through her books + my sisters loving them. And the other through just seeing her around the place.
Bethany had very good points. *nods*

Phew. Signing out finally. (I know no one’s here, but I’ll say anyways in case someone checks to see if I’m still around) I managed to critique ten chapters today (my record. Literally half the manuscript *flop*) so yay! *goes to find some reviving pizza*

@Catwing oops saw the notification too late. xP Cool name though!

Ah. That would be a problem, wouldn’t it. 😉 Glad to find someone who shares my passion for well-versed-in-fantasy characters.

Aislinn out!

I never even thought of that! That’s one of the best ideas I’ve heard all day!!!

I’m actually writing right this second, and this section is conversation between Amber and Teine immediately after Amber discovers her powers. It’s one of my characteristic scenes that helps to define their relationship.

I canna’ wait to try that out, @princessfoo…[Read more]

@Catwing alrighty, see you in the future! 😀
(and I’m still sticking around in case anyone drops by and isn’t sure. I’ll be here for a few more hours still.)

@Catwing yay cool.

@Catwing I’m still going if you are. 😀

@Dragon-Snapper okay thanks for joining me!! 😀 I’ve critiqued about three chapters or so.

@catwing @jane-maree I’m signing out now. I wrote 804 and read over what I’ve written so far. Thanks for the pizza!

@catwing

Ah, Vulcans. There was one Voyager episode where someone’s son was hanging out with Klingons, and his dad didn’t like it (cause you know, Klingons), so his dad told him, “How about you find some nice Vulcan friends?”
