I’m definitely with @aratrea on this one. I don’t write poetry…not that I haven’t tried. I just can’t seem to figure out all the rules. That’s why I like stories. I understand them better, reading and writing wise.
Sorry…I’m not much help. At all. @anne-of-lothlorien

@anne-of-lothlorien Well, I should probably preface this by saying that I’m not much of a poetry person… Most poetry just doesn’t connect with me, and I grew to appreciate it some during college but still don’t fully “get” it. =P
That being said, I do like George Herbert and Emily Dickinson a fair bit. Alexander Pope is also pretty good–and…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien I’m so sorry to hear about your aunt. Praying for your family.
My graduation ceremony is coming up this weekend, guys! I’m very excited but also a little nervous…it’s all the way in Orlando–near Disney World–and I’m nervous ’cause…well…I’m graduating. So overwhelmed by what this means for my life, but excited for the…[Read more]

@GracieGirl Really…? Wow. Well, liking Algebra can’t do you any harm. XD
Oh good. Now I know. *saves stash of ice cream*@Anne-of-Lothlorien Ah, don’t worry, we’ll be doing school on past June. 😛 You’re not alone.
@Dragon-Snapper Ooh, Dragon College. You should be a teacher there though; I think you’ve got being a dragon down pretty well already.

@Anne-of-Lothlorien That’s so sad. I’ll definitely pray for her.
Ah, good to hear about the root canal going well, by the end at least. I’m the one who asked what it is, btw—@Ethryndal isn’t so ignorant. 😉 Glad it worked out.

@anne-of-lothlorien Hmm…maybe Dean isn’t actually a friendly. Ooh! Maybe he’s the Mad Hatter! Maybe he kidnaps her!

@anne-of-lothlorien Ah. 🙁 Miscarriage is really hard. I can only imagine how much harder it is when you’ve been wanting kids for a while. Sorry to hear that, and I’m praying that God sustains her and the whole family during this time.

bethanys.inky.roses started the topic Perfect Parents? in the forum Characters 7 years, 6 months ago
What do you think of parents who have no personality and never make mistakes? Is there a good excuse for writers who do this?
For example, in the Mennonite Millers book series, the parents are portrayed as all-wise and unerring. Perfect-no flaws, no mistakes, ever. Maybe they are this way to encourage the small fry in the audience to respect…[Read more]

Northerner started the topic Thank you, KP! in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
This weekend I saw a girl who I’m certain is a writer, though I never talked to her (I’m trying to get contact information for someone who might know her, so I can ask for her contact information in a slightly less creepy way than otherwise, but that’s another story), and she reminded me how much of my writing life I spent alone.
I started…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien THREE BABIES!!! How fun! I’ll definitely pray for your aunt—my mother wasn’t able to have children until she was older, either. And of course I’ll pray for your mother and other aunt. And happy root canal, which I just realized is happening today. I be praying.

@Anne-of-Lothlorien This sounds very ignorant, but—what’s a root canal? Is it some sort of tooth thing?
And yeah, I’ll be praying. 😀 -

@anne-of-lothlorien That’s an amazing little story, Anne! I loved it! I also love how her name is Ali, similar to Alice 😉

Snapper replied to the topic The Wonderland Story in the forum Short Story Critiques 7 years, 6 months ago
@anne-of-lothlorien This is great!!! You’re character in Ali is great! Even from the beginning I feel terrible that she has to go through that with her family. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Prayer Requests in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@anne-of-lothlorien That’s awesome! 😀 I’ll pray that your aunt’s pregnancy goes well (as well as all the others). Hope the root canal isn’t terribly nerve-wracking!

Northerner replied to the topic Rogue One in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 6 months ago
@Anne-of-lothlorien, I happen to like the Appendices quite a lot. There’s a little bit of everything in them, whether you like history (a. k. a. backstory to all your favourite characters), or essays on pipe-weed, or runes, or languages. You also get the feeling that Tolkien was letting himself play a bit more in the Appendices than in the book…[Read more]

Three babies! How special. I’m glad you tagged me @anne-of-lothlorien or I wouldn’t have known! I’ll pray for you and your root canal. And the babies!
