Hope y’all are making some ground-breaking progress!! <333 (By the way, which WIP are…[Read more]

It was AMAZING sprinting with you girls!! <3333 Thanks for the invite, Elizabeth!!:) I’m clocking out now with a word count of 1,415 words. My last line I wrote was: He left, and my hands were still warm where he had held them even after he had gone. (This was in one of my character’s…[Read more]

Pausing for a bit to go wash dishes (so much fun I know:))) ). I will be back though, never fear!

@daisy-torres Oh yay!!! The more the merrier:D

@scripter-of-kingdoms I’d love to!!!

(Also, I should have mentioned–I started at :55, oops:P)

@scripter-of-kingdoms Fine by me!! Have fun with your sketch!!!

@issawriter7 Alrighty! Good luck:D

@issawriter7 @writerlexi1216 @scripter-of-kingdoms Awesome!!!

Would y’all want to start at :45?

@lewilliams

Sure, I’d be happy to!! 😀 I’m just about to wrap up school so I should be free anytime after the next thirty minutes!!:)

Anyone up for sprinting this afternoon? I’ll be working on my thesis today.

@daisy-torres I’m so sorry, I never responded to your comment!!! Great job on your sprint!! (And watching Veggietales is always a good decision. *sage nod*) And thanks!

Lolololol I often ask myself the same question *cough* My thesis is about water imagery in The Lord of the Rings!

@gracie-j

Ehehe, I’ll have to let him know about this girl Grace, then!! 😉 *cue me still trying to decide what to do with Deek’s romance life* Nothing is set in stone yet. And yes, your advice is duly noted!!:)

I always know the right girl to come to whenever I have a romance dilemma in my novels:) I… uh… experimented with your advice a…[Read more]

Ah, so I realized a flaw in my above post. I got my words mixed up when I said ‘proposal’ rather than ‘confession’. I was probably still thinking about the whole Mejia/Filip thing and just typed the wrong word. Sorry about that!:D

@daisy-torres I third this idea!! I love cooking and would love a place in which to discuss it. It’s kind of an art, you know?

Also, @scripter-of-kingdoms, as someone who is not Celiac but is #livingtheglutenfreelife, I would love to hear what kind of things you like making:D

@nova21 Ahhh I hate passive heroes as well…and yet I struggle so hard in not making all my characters so very passive… #writerproblems XD

@kathleenramm Such a good question (and I agree–characters without a character arc are just…disappointing). My least favorite hero/heroine is, for lack of a better word, the YA Protagonist™. Nothing…[Read more]

@gracie-j I started giggling when I saw I was tagged in this topic, because I’ve written far more tragic death scenes than kiss scenes, so the advice I can offer is fairly limited. XD That being said, I have a first kiss scene I’ll probably have to write at some point, so wish me luck. (I’m with @devastate-lasting in that I’m kind of a “less is…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Aww, I think so too!!:) Caira would adore a trip to Birch Woods, and to share a cup of coffee with Anton? She’d be over the moon!:) Thank you SO MUCH!! I’m so happy you liked it!! I thought it fit their dynamics very well. Aw, thank you!!! Gosh, Deek’s character is so hard to write (mostly), so it means the world that you’ve enjoyed…[Read more]

@gracie-j Ooh this looks so fun!!! Thank you so much for tagging me:D

I’m *cough* currently trying to survive the last two weeks of college–would it be okay if I let you know in the coming days? Either way I’ll definitely be keeping my eye on this!

@gracie-j

Awww, THANK YOU girl!!! <33333 I’m so happy you love them!!! They’re my favorite couple for certain 😉 (For a while, I gave Deek a “girlfriend” and thought they might be my favorite couple, but that didn’t happen XD) I haven’t written many romances in the past, so I’m very thankful that I have such wonderful advice to help me…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Oh, that’s okay!!! I’m always super nervous to edit posts, because usually they vanish. I actually posted the above post twice because it disappeared, so I’m sorry if it duplicated!! 🙁 And that makes total sense:) Thank you!!:D Also, in response to your next post, THANK YOU!! 😀 😀 😀 😀 I’m going to try to work on them even more…[Read more]
