Yes @sarah-h, that’s one of the most important things about writing. Writing anything, not just something you’re not sure about. 🙂

Well I got another 437 words written. Thanks for writing with me for that last bit @anna-brie. 🙂 902 in total. I’m very happy with that.

More than I did @daeus, but I did have to do some research on kittens and stuff… 🙂 So I got 465.
@anna-brie are you continuing till 11:30??? (I am.) -
Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Endings in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 4 months ago
Oh! Oh oh oh, I remembered something else I was going to say. There’s a way to take an ending that would be completely bitter and add an element of sweet into it without reducing the bitterness.
I’m thinking specifically of one of my own novels here, but there have been countless others to employ this tactic. ToTC, to name just one.
The trick is…[Read more] -

@daeus I’m here and ready. @anna-brie I can go till 11:30 if you want. That is half an hour more than what Daeus is going to do. (9 for them is 11 for us)

Okay @Daeus I will grant you those are all very valid points. I actually do agree— the ending of tLotR really doesn’t have near as much meaning by itself as it does if you read all the trivia and history and world-building that made that departure significant. Which is too long to go into here… 😛
A good example of the bittersweet (actually…[Read more]

There are no words for the awesomeness of this topic @Daeus. I can finally unload. *rubs hands, chuckles evilly*
Actually don’t worry, I don’t think I have just tons and tons of stuff to dump off on you yet. 😉
Just a few points for now. The first being that it has to be unexpected. It has to be in some way different than the reader was…[Read more]

Hmm, not sure that made the most sense @his-instrument. the b makes things bold. the i italicizes (just make sure you highlight what you want changed. and b-quote is if you are quoting what someone else says. Maybe that is explained a bit better. If you want to know anything else, I’m sure there is someone else out there more experienced than I am. 🙂

BlueJay replied to the topic Greetings and salutations! in the forum Start HERE 10 years, 4 months ago
(I can’t figure out how to italicize…sorry!)
When you are typing a post you have the options for b i link

@hope @gretald Yes I have seen it. In fact I posted that question just after I watched it. I haven’t seen Fireproof or Courageous as of yet, but I’ve seen the first two. That movie makes me CRY LIKE CRAZY!!!! It was very well done. And there are some very VERY VERY funny moments in there. And a great battle plan. PRAYER!

@ingridrd and @bluejay we must be twins with different ages and different parents. 🙂
Haha There’s a story idea for you. Only we’d have to be triplets, not twins.
Oo I love Emily Elizabeth Black’s music too. I can play one of her simple songs on the keyboard, but my younger sister is much better than me.

Combinations transform into emoticons, but I only know some of the simple ones. : ) (with no spaces) gives you 🙂 for example. ; ) gives you 😉 and : P gives you 😛 Beyond that, I’m not sure though you can look up online guides for all kinds of things.
