I like writing about creepy forests, but I’m not sure if that’s helpful.

I think the forest depends on the mood of the story/characters. Are they frightened? Happy? Is it a forest like Mirkwood, or like Lothlorien? I could probably help a bit more with keeping it interesting if I knew that.

@seekjustice You’re not savages?  What a revelation!

Haha. 😛  I’m glad you are able to know the joys of roasted marshmallows.

@alia “In the deep shadows loomed an unnecessarily large bear.  He loomed there because the best thing for bears to do is loom.  Otherwise they would not be frightening.  And it’s important for bears to be frig…[Read more]

@alia @seekjustice @rochellaine *pops back in* *grabs the last of the roasted marshmallows* *vanishes into the night*

I might be on more later, I don’t know yet.

@rochellaine

We are not savages. Of course we have roasted marshmallows ;P

it was a fun story to write! I thought I had a copy on my computer, but I can’t find it now.

@jenwriter17 @ariel-ashira Goodbye!

@seekjustice Interesting.  That does sound similar, though I was thinking that she was chosen specifically, and not as a volunteer.

Haha, definitely.  Your books contain many sobplots.

@alia Okay, go for it! 😀

I want roasted marshmallows.  Give me roasted marshmallows.  Now. 😛  SeekJustice do you have roas…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I love beetles!! As in, car beetles, Volkswagens. 😀

@rochellaine Actually, your prompt reminds me of a short story I wrote once, based on a Japanese myth. It was about a girl who offered herself as a sacrifice to the sea dragon instead of the emperor’s daughter.

And yes, another subplot! (I just wrote sobplot though, and that seems…[Read more]

@rochellaine @seekjustice @alia Well, I’m gonna have to go now too. Usually I can divide my attention well, but the writers’ corner is distracting me right now. 😉 I have to go work on my SE contest entry. Bye! And don’t stay up too late 😛

@jenwriter17 You changed your profile picture again?!  Haha.  Thankfully we can’t change our faces in the same way we change online profile pictures…

…oh wait.  Plastic surgery.  Right.

😛 😛 😛

Change that to “Thankfully changing profile pictures is less expensive and less painful than plastic surgery.”

@ariel-ashira Ha, I was waiting for someone to notice! 😛

Alrighty, nice talking with you too! 🙂

@seekjustice Cool!  Another subplot?  Like…oh, I’m not going to guess.  Just let me read it again once you finish the edits. 😉

@jenwriter17 Thank you!

@alia Well, I offered it to Ariel, but if she doesn’t want it, I’d love for you to write it! 🙂

@ariel-ashira How should I know?!  I just made the prompt.  It’s your job to come up with the…[Read more]

I have to go, guys.  Nice talking with you!

@seekjustice Either that, or you can come to America and sing “America the Beautiful” while I laugh at your Australian accent. 😀

@seekjustice 😀

@rochellaine My question: why were they gonna sacrifice her to the wild waves?  And can babies actually be taught to swim that young?

@ariel-ashira Sounds like a plan 😀

@jenwriter17 Hey, you just changed your profile picture!

@rochellaine ‘Joy’! that’s awesome, it fits you 😉

@seekjustice that is interesting 🙂

@ariel-ashira oh I have a friend named Esther! 😉 Those are all great meanings too 😀

@alia How beautiful and powerful!!!  What is your middle name?

@rochellaine

Well, I’m working on a short story which I’m considering entering into an anthology competition. Its kind of a King Arthur…Little Mermaid…thing.

I’m actually supposed to be editing Stars though. I’ve got some new ideas for at least one subplot which i’d like to add.
