The White House smelled like cheese for weeks.

I’d become president just for that. That’s lovely.

Joining you!

Taking a break. Restarting at :45

Sprinting on the same paper at :00. At Jackson’s inauguration, an unruly mob entered the White House, breaking china and spilling drinks. Jackson escaped through a window, and the mob was lured outside with liquor.

*Cough, cough*

Just did, apparently. 😉 I didn’t know who all to tag and not tag, so I just posted the announcement like that. I’ll probably need to get more confident about advertising, but that’s the week after next’s problem. KeePers are the best, anyway. It’s fun to see the slow growth as more are interested than I thought.…[Read more]

Ahhh! Thanks!

Let me see…. *digs around in old group call emails* AHa! Found it. *sends you last week’s newsletter because I don’t have a welcome system set up yet*

Pausing with 823 words…this was supposed to be a 1000 word essay and I’m only half done…if that.

At Jackson’s funeral, his parrot swore so bad he had to be taken out.

Starting at :35 to write a research paper on Andrew Jackson. He once received a 4 foot in diameter wheel of cheddar cheese which sat around the White House for two years because no one knew what to do with it. Eventually, he held a reception, and approximately 10,000 people came by to eat cheese. The White House smelled like cheese for weeks.

Count me in!  I think you have my email?

@loopylin

Cursed ideas are fun. I like it.

Loll, one side of me figured you’d like it.

@people I’ll write something for this and the labyrinth later tonight or tomorrow after church

@whalekeeper Cursed ideas are fun. I like it.

@mineralizedwriting

I have two wips that kinda uh… scratch a different writers itch? So when I’m burnt out of slice of life I can write some fighting and vice versa.

Yes!! I always have two WIPs. What else are you supposed to do if you’re tired with one project and the ideas are blocked?

@elishavet-pidyon

Good job, you got a nice word count! If you don’t know your writing is rough, that’s a problem, but if you know it needs improvement, then you have perfectly workable material. ;-P

I know that feeling… One of our…[Read more]

I can give you my story’s wikipedia answer or I can give you my story’s wikipedia answer. There’s no other way to explain. *Pulls out textbook* Ahem.

Helminth is the modern scientific term for a parasitic worm, coming from Greek for ‘intestinal worm.’ But in this story’s universe, while humans eventually narrowed the word down to the…[Read more]

“The ears and helminths have blessed this place,” he breathed.

what

It’s (4):12! I got 2,379 in total, so yay!

That was a long time. And the writing is so rough. Ugh. XD

Hopping back on again. I’m aiming for 2,000 words and I got 1,385 in that last sprint. So here. We. Go! *excited panting*

Taking a break at (2):40 for a late lunch

Starting at :28 to restructure some scenes and draft some new ones in HoA.

@whalekeeper

Out of curiosity, I copy-pasted all the scenes into a document and checked the word count. It was over 40,000 words. That doesn’t count stuff I didn’t find or didn’t believe was worthy enough.

And I am currently struggling to finish drafting a 6,000 words short story. This is embarrassing. What am I doing?? Does anyone else have…
