@dragongeek Welcome to the site! I’ve listened to a fair amount of Two Steps from Hell and like them a fair bit. 🙂

Are you working on writing any stories currently? If so, what’s it about?

@sam-kowal Welcome to the site! Sounds like we have a lot of the same favorite authors between Sanderson and Austen, among others. 🙂

@emily Yeah; unfortunately I don’t have enough web coding knowledge for that. 😛 Those kinds of features will have to wait until we can bring a legit web designer onto our team.

@ethryndal To be honest, even though I’m not the most active forum member, it seems like you’ve been around for a lot longer than that. 🙂 So glad to hear about how much this forum has helped you in your writing life!

@jane-maree Yes! Shoot me an email.

@allison-grace I have a lot of recommendations. Have you checked out our resource library yet? We’ve got our official staff recommendations in there, and I’d just be repeating what I’ve already written there. xD

@nicolerivers03 Yes–absolutely! We still have space for a couple more, so shoot me an email and we can work out details from there. 🙂

@theacornman Cool–that should actually work for this project.

@theacornman How many words do you have in your WIP? We should be able to make the UK time zone thing work.

@lady-iliara Sweet–no problem!

@lady-iliara Are you still open to working on some of your completed projects, or are they done and past? If the former, between that and the two chapters of your current work, we could probably make that work for this project.

@dragon-snapper Unfortunately, for this is does need to be live.

@aislinn-mollisong Yep–that would be fine. 🙂

@jbb Welcome to the site! 🙂 Glad you found your way onto the forum. Out of curiosity, where did you first hear about us?

(As a clarification, current forum members can stay on till they’re 30; we won’t accept new members when they’re over 25, but we’ll grandfather current members into the forum until they hit 30, at which point we’ll figure an alumni board out or something). 🙂

I’ve never heard of a 2nd person narrative actually working. Everyone I’ve read on the subject say it’s only a gimmick and doesn’t end up doing well w/the exception of the narrow choose-your-own-adventure sub-genre. Since it’s only a short story, if you want to experiment, then by all means go for it! But I also wouldn’t personally recommend it. 😛

@supermonkey42 Chirrut was awesome. I wasn’t a huge fan personally of Rogue One, but Chirrut was easily my favorite character. That scene where he chanted his Force anthem like a creed while being shot at was so awesome.

@supermonkey42 Welcome to the site, Ben! Yay for Star Wars fans; I am really looking forward to The Last Jedi coming out. Favorite Star Wars character?

Um; what happened to this thread? O.o I have never seen a thread show up like this before.

@sleepwalkingmk Yeah–it’s funny how that works. I wonder at times if it’s God’s way of showing us that we /aren’t/ self-sufficient. Even to change who we are and pursue greater sanctification, we need His work in external circumstances to be shaping us into the people he’s called us to be. That’s a great example of how God’s done so in your own life!
