Hey, that’s awesome @Daeus! Oh, totally don’t let me stop you from watching LotR— I completely don’t mind!
Wow… I envy you. Enjoy it for me. 😉

@Daeus I’m writing tonight… as I have said, I am operating on the mental capacity of a baked potato (and the energy quotient of an amoeba) but I can’t stand it any longer. I have to write.
Or at least try to write. 😛
Are you writing tonight?

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Is this fair? in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 3 months ago
@Daeus good idea.
That is, it would be if I even remembered what I was thinking when I wrote that. I am currently operating on the mental capacity of a baked potato.
I believe, however, that I was referring somewhat to foreshadowing.
And for the rest, I simply meant that the beginning should set up the ending. I should have clarified that— I…[Read more] -

Wow, guys, have fun! I’m afraid I’m going to have to skip this one @Daeus. Life is being its typical annoying self and getting in the way. 😉

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Is this fair? in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 3 months ago
No. That’s not fair. I totally agree with everything @Daeus said. You have my sincerest condolences and sympathies, @Jadamae.
The solution to the climax of every single book should exist from the very first page— and we need to have some sort of inkling of what it is from the very first page. It doesn’t have to be obvious. But it has to be…[Read more] -

@Daeus Sorry I didn’t respond until now. I was at a drama workshop all day. 🙂
I suggested Sign of Four because it was the only Sherlock Holmes novel haven’t read yet. However, if the people who haven’t read Sherlock Holmes think reading Sign of Four would be confusing as it isn’t the first novel in the series, then let’s read A Study in…[Read more]

Hope Ann replied to the topic Camp NaNo in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 3 months ago
@Daeus It’s kind of like NaNo month (where you write a novel in one month…or at least 40,000 words) but there are two camps in the summer. One in May (I think) and one in July. You can set your own word goal, from 5000 words and for the month. Then you can join a ‘cabin’ with ten(?) other writers and you post your word counts each day and there…[Read more]

Anyone doing Camp NaNo in July? I decided I was going to, so I’m wondering anyone else is and, if you are, if you have a cabin already or not (I need to find one to join).

@Daeus, I should probably mention that I’ll be gone all of next week, so I won’t be able to participate in discussions next week.

@daeus, The laptop is still not doing what it is meant too, so it has to go back for more fixing, so *sobs miserably* I won’t be able to write for a bit. I’m not sure how long.

BlueJay replied to the topic Writer's Corner in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 3 months ago
@daeus I got 630 written in about 30 minutes. So glad you like my Aussie-ness

BlueJay replied to the topic Writer's Corner in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 3 months ago
G’day mate. I’m here. Right, are you ready to bounce into this writing together? @daeus Because I’m ready here in down under. *remember to put on Australian accent to read this* 🙂 Was that Aussie enough for you?

BlueJay replied to the topic Writer's Corner in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 3 months ago
I’ll be with you in two ticks. Got one more chore to get done and then I’ll be with you. 🙂 @daeus

@ingridrd, I’m terrible at thinking up dares but your dare is to write about someone who is bully at school and then he finds out that he has a secret power. What does he do with it? *No idea if this is good or not.* I’ll try to do better next time.
Oh and btw who is your profile pic? It looks awesome. 🙂 -

That would be cool, @daeus . I don’t really mind for myself since I’ve read them all already, (several times 🙂 ) but I wouldn’t want anyone to miss out on getting the best first impression, you know? (unless it doesn’t matter to them) Plus the first one is pretty good!
