Here’s an *awful* one I wrote for a novella I’ve started…

Finnegan “the Mistake” Lane has learned to expect the insults and bullying from his own sister—and in some cases, his parents.  What he doesn’t expect is to get kicked out of the house and sent to live with a crazy aunt he doesn’t know whose home people are afraid to set foot in.

@dekreel  My w-weaknesses as a writer?  *pulls out 100-foot-long list*  Let’s see here.

I care too much about what other people think.  I have a tendency to view myself as not good enough in relation to writing.

*stares at topic* I swear this thing is rearranging itself as we speak. My reply is now below your post. I have no idea what’s going on. XD

@Winter-rose something odd happened and your post wasn’t here when I got the notification, so my reply is above your post and I accidentally tagged Hannah… 😛 *winces* sorry…

Anyway… THAT’S SO AWESOME!! *tackle hugs* Definitely be praying.

@winter-rose  Praying that God will continue to guide you…!  🙂

@Xonos-darkgrate ooh, yeah. That’s tougher. I think it could still be done though… ‘I swore silently,’ or ‘Easily half a dozen rather ungentlemanly words jumped to my lips and I just barely bit them back’. It depends a lot on his voice, of course, but I believe it’s possible.

@salome01w4g THAT’S SO AWESOME!! *tackle hugs* Definitely be praying. 😀 😀 😀

@Xonos-darkgrate ah, classic question. 😀

I’m definitely not a fan of sanitizing everything to the point of complete squeaky-cleanness, because it’s dishonest.

That said, I think swearing is unnecessary to say the least. It’s different than other ‘content’ for one. Say, for instance, one of your characters is a harlot. Pretty dark, right? But…[Read more]

@mariposa  That’s fantastic!  *stares in awe*

@inkling-for-christ  First off, great job!  And congratulations on being brave enough to want feedback.  Now for my suggestions…*rubs hands together*

Okay, this may come as a shock to you, but my first thought was “delete the entire first chapter”.  It seems sort of unnecessary and a lot of it just dumps info instead of showing.  (Sorry, tryi…[Read more]

@salome01w4g  YESSS!!!!  Praise the Lord!

@dragon-snapper  Not too shabby, my friend.  😉  In other words, it’s really good.  I loooove the collage.  Nice work.  *high five*

@perfectfifths   The Fellowship of the Ring…I think Pippin says it.  😉

@salome01w4g  That’s rough…praying for you, friend!

@shannon and @dekreel

*eyes cookies and milk*  Shucks.  I can’t right now…though the refreshments look delicious.  Have fun!

Thanks @kate-flournoy and @dekreel! Good advice. 😀 Theme… that’s what I was missing. Thanks Kate! @Dekreel, those are some good things to consider! Thanks!

@kate-flournoy I can’t wait to see you (and @emma-flournoy and the rest of the family) tonight! 😀

@daughteroftheking  *shakes finger*  Not yet.  Don’t be naughty.

I like your new profile picture! 😉

@emma-flournoy  Thanks, girl! 😉

@daughteroftheking  Of course!  When it’s finished, of course.  I’m actually pretty close to done!  🙂 🙂 🙂

@Dekreel ooh, that’s an unusually flattering representation of me waking up. It usually involves rolling over at least five times and eventually tumbling off the bed tangled in my fleecy blanket (with static hair flying all over the place) and then crawling my way still half asleep to my closet while splitting my ears with yawning and trying not…[Read more]
