Would you mind sending me another link? I think that was the reason I stopped reading in the first place–because it got lost somewhere in my piles and piles of Google docs.

@seekjustice The riddle had tying the dragon’s tail first, but she hit the gong and then forget to tie the dragon’s tail cause she got scared.

Though definitely intriguing. Why did poor Cele see gongs and get confused?

@valtmy Interesting.
@rochellaine okay, bye.
@seekjustice Oh… It is… *shrug* -
SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #21 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
Well, you certainly know how to disturb people.
Goodnight
And yours is just a tad confusing 😛

@seekjustice @valtmy @rochellaine
231. 🙂My favorite sentence.
“I saw the gongs and got it out of order.”
Poor Cele… -

I just finished my fifteen minutes. I got 415.
My last sentence (hence my interest in colts):
Several foals, all varying shades of brown, three black mares and a yearling colt, who looked big enough to be kicked out of the mob any day now.

@rochellaine Well, I don’t know if you like fantasy, but her historical fantasy Fawkes is really good. 🙂
Alright, I have to leave now. Enjoy word warring! 🙂

Well, I’ve just noticed a lot of use of the word colt. Just then I saw “rounding up mustang mares and colts”, etc. So I was wondering if it had a different meaning.
“Some guns are called colts” was also my immediate thought.
All right, I’m putting on my timer again @Catwing

@valtmy Heyo! 😀
@catwing @seekjustice @rochellaine Do you all know that Nadine Brandes is having a giveaway for a signed copy of Fawkes and some other Fawkes-related goodies? 🙂 You can find the link to enter through her latest Youtube video.

@jenwriter17 Okay.
@valtmy @rochellaine @seekjustice Are y’all ready to start? 15 minutes? -
Jenna Terese replied to the topic Writers' Corner #21 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@rochellaine @seekjustice @catwing
I think I’ll sit out of the wars for the rest of the night. Been pushing myself to crank out the words these past several hours, and I’m feeling not so inspired and motivated now, so I’m gonna leave soon I think. I’ll be on to chat for a bit though. 🙂

Catwing replied to the topic Writers' Corner #21 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@rochellaine another war sounds good. 15 minutes?
I think we’re doing favorites, but saying or last sentences cause they’re funny. XD
This is great. 😀 -
Jenna Terese replied to the topic Writers' Corner #21 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@seekjustice I think all those terms are a little confusing for some people (including me, tbh 😛 ), and I don’t think all horse books get it right anyway, so maybe that’s why Americans don’t use the terms that often. 🙂
-
Catwing replied to the topic Writers' Corner #21 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@seekjustice Okay. I double checked and…
They are called a filly or Colt until over three years of age. But at one year they are yearlings, instead of foals apparently. -
SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #21 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
Righto. The things I was reading seemed to indicate it meant more generally a horse that hadn’t reached mature age. Here it very specifically means a horse between 1-4. Younger than 1 is a foal, and a female is a filly. I’ve never really seen any Americans use those terms though, which was why I was a little confused.

@seekjustice I’m an American horse person… And an American cat person… 🙁 ( 😛 )
Foal – Baby horse under one year (I think it’s one year)
Filly – Female foal
Colt – Male foal
But some people are named Colt. 🙂 - Load More
