Sorry it’s been a bit. I’m back now.

Viktor (Library)

“Pre Algebra. I wanted to skip a grade or two, but my parents made me stay in fifth. Apparently I don’t ‘spend enough time with kids my age’. But at least they’re letting me do advanced math.”

Brea rolled her eyes at her algebra book and turned the page. Apparently…[Read more]

Wellllll. They never came in. As complete strangers, they would not enter unless given an invitation. Sylvia was obviously in need of a shower and a nap.

They are sitting on a bench under the stairs waiting for the next trolley to come by and using the opportunity to watch for the Leo’s return. They might have left by now or not…[Read more]

I have to leave for a date with friends but I’ll reply in a couple hours!

Welp. I wasn’t sure I would join. Then S. D. Smith shared a link in his newsletter and I took it as a sign. XD

I’ll probably work on Project Golden Song, but who knows, I might suddenly need to revisit my children’s novel about squirrels and madcap otters.

Barnes
Some of the kids picked up their mugs. Barnes waited for them to settle down. “So, I have to introduce myself first before you give me any explanation. Is that what Rory wants?”

Barnes

In the kitchen, Barnes set the tea water to simmer. The kettle started whistling almost immediately, and Barnes quickly put together four cups of tea and a cup of juice she had found in the ice box.

Coming back into the living room, she set the tray on the coffee table and settled down on a corner armchair, a…[Read more]

Nah, you’re good, I was just checking to see if you were interested.

But please still tag me in the sprint topic cause I have a story idea I really like and I probably won’t write it unless I have motivation, which you guys provide in spades. Lol.

I meant the sprinting forum in CWW, but we can do that here too. After all, I think s…[Read more]

Barnes

Barnes closed the door. She took off her boots by the entrance rug, and folded up her coat before speaking quietly. “May I use the kitchen to make warm drinks, Leo?”

I am really, really impatient to start writing, but I have to hold in all my ideas until the challenge starts. 😅

@ellette-giselle

If you can’t enter the community on Monday for whatever reason, I will wrangle up somebody to help you.

@esther-c

I’ve started to discover how hard writing contemporary can be. I have the main plot points in my head, but figuring how to get to each one without writing filler chapters has been difficult. Right now I’m just try…

@esther-c

Well if you feel like switching projects at any point during the challenge, don’t force yourself against a writing block. But that sounds like a good plan. Is this the romance with the Italian boy? 😏

You signed up at this link?

@rae @loopylin @linus-smallprint @theshadow @keilah-h @theducktator I’m just tagging whoever comes to mind. I hope some of you will do this too, and if so, hope to meet you in the sprinting topic on Monday!

I’m really excited because my project is going to have an absurdist world, and should only be 50k or so words since it will be middle grade level. What about everyone else?

I’m revitalizing this topic because CWW 2025 is on Monday! @godlyfantasy12 @koshka @esther-c @hybridlore @everyone

@liberty

Certainly. Any ideas?

@keilah-h

I think it’s yours. Last RP was page 462.

@ellette-giselle

😛

@linus-smallprint

OS I am very happy to here these two were your favourites.

Glad that makes you feel better!

Hmm. I might have to think through this one more. Tyn is a bit of a hot-head though.

You could maybe play off the fact that kentors naturally avoid confrontation. Although Tyn wants to face conflict directly, she might still be avoidant…[Read more]

Ohhhh, okay. *Quickly checks something* Try their album Dear Wormwood. I don’t know if the style is exactly what you’re looking for, but if you listen to Soldier, Poet, King which is a song on that album, that should give you the gist of what they sound like.
