@anna-brie; @clairec; I’m leaving now. What did I get done??? To be honest, nothing. I dabbled for a bit trying to get a new idea going, but that didn’t work.
I just finished reading a really emotional true life book and I think my mind wouldn’t focus due to the contents of the book. Maybe tomorrow will be better. -

@anna-brie That’s great. I’ll be going to 4:30pm
@clairec are you around? 🙂 -
BlueJay replied to the topic Writers' Corner 2 in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 2 months ago
Not much but I got 218 words written. How about you @clairec? I’ll try you at 4pm and see if we can write then. 🙂

@clairec I’ve got a few spare minutes left. So I’ll write with you.

@clairec I’ve got to wash the dishes before I can write, so I’m going to be late. I don’t know if I’ll make it at all, and if I can’t, I’ll try for half an hour tonight. Sorry.

@Daeus I’d love to join you, but I’m not on my normal schedule tonight, so I won’t be able to. Good luck though.

Hope Ann replied to the topic The sign of the four in the forum Book Discussions 10 years, 2 months ago
So I’ve been thinking, both about Sherlock Holmes and writing in general. I think part of our reaction to styles comes with what we are expected. For example, when I read Sherlock Holmes, I expect a mystery. If the emotions are a bit dramatic, or there is quite a bit of telling verses showing, I don’t mind. Because it flows and it reflects the…[Read more]

@ClaireC Welcome! I know, I’m a bit late to say it. But hey, better late than never, right? 😉 Great to have you here!

@clairec That’s okay. I was actually going to cut it down to 15 minutes cause I’ve got something else to do, so it works out well for me. And yes, tomorrow should be fine. 🙂

@clairec I got 14 and 1/2 chapters read in Job. I was busy for most of the afternoon but I got lots of reading done in the evening.

@clairec I’d love to, but I’ve got to work on a stop motion for a competition in America. I’m going to try and put in a full days work today, but I should be able to write tomorrow. Or maybe even tonight. I guess we’ll see. 🙂

@sarah-h I think that’s a great idea too. I sometimes don’t think I’d have enough time, but that’s because I fill it with other stuff. Like 2 1/2 hours on my laptop. How would I be able to help you?

@hope Sign of the Shield sounds great.

Hope Ann started the topic Help please… *puppy eyes* in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 10 years, 2 months ago
I feel like the only time I start threads is when I have a problem, but I’ve got such good ideas from you that I’m asking anyway.
In a fantasy I’m working on, I have a shield. It’s not magical, exactly, but it is unbreakable and all that. Anyway, originally the theme was faith and the shield was the shield of faith, etc. But the story has changed…[Read more]

Mallory O'Bier replied to the topic Bible Challenge in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 2 months ago
That’s a cool idea, @clairec ! I know what you mean. It’s easy to get caught up in novel reading and neglect more serious stuff. Fiction makes me feel a lot more comfortable than the Bible does. The Bible speaks to me personally, not as an unknown writer, but as its recipient. There’s nothing pretend about that, which is one of the reasons…[Read more]

Hey @hope ! 🙂 “Sign of the Shield” is alright. (It could be better than alright, but since I haven’t read your story it’s a little hard to say how well it goes, but it sounds nice:) What about “Emblazoned”? I just thought of it. Not saying it’s better than “Sign of the Shield,” but it was an idea, so I thought I’d mention it.
