Hey, everyone!
I was just thinking about writing (granted, I’m always thinking about writing, but that’s beside the point). Why do we do it? Why do we want to put a bunch of words onto a page; make remixes of the Dictionary? What motivates us?
Writer’s Block, in my opinion, is just lack of motivation, so, I was thinking that each of us writers…[Read more] -

This sounds like a great book, @clairec! My suggestions, if you will accept, are these.
When the Japanese bomb Darwin, she is finally allowed to become an army nurse.
I had to read this at least ten times, thinking that the Japanese bomb was named Darwin. You might want to put, ‘When the Japanese bomb Darwin, Australia, she is finally allowed…[Read more]

@jadamae I love Little Women! Jo is my favorite. She’s also my dream role to play on stage.
@anne-swiftblade knows how I was just talking about this last night 😉

Well, since your making your own creatures, I would say the Chronicles of Narnia, but most of us have memorized them. 🙂 I second @hope‘s suggestion as Lord of the Rings. However, Lord of the Rings is really long and I don’t know if you have time to do that…the Hobbit is much shorter. Ranger’s Apprentice is fantasy-ish. He makes up his own…[Read more]

*shrugs* @bluejay
I see…I suppose that makes sense. And I know about the votes, I’m just the biggest Tolkien fan that’s ever existed. (hints the voting) My first and foremost vote is for the Hobbit, but I have some preferences over others.
1. The Hobbit
2. The Hobbit
3. The Hobbit
…you know what, I think that I’m probably getting annoying now. Sorry. -

All right! I’m continuing onwards until later on, (whenever I feel like stopping). Have a good art lesson!

@anna-brie That’s a shame, but I understand.
@dragon-snapper Some of us aren’t reading any fiction for a month. We are focusing on Biblical books and the Bible.
And it’s all about votes for which book gets picked……….. - Load More
