EEEEEEK, OH MY CHOCOLATE CHIPS GIRL THAT STORY HAS ME HOOKED!!! Like, you had me hooked when you mentioned ‘Kingdom of Elvurdul’ because that just sounds so interesting!! And I love this boy already!! Hmm… if I think of any names, I’ll be sure to let you know!! Though I can recommend NameBerry to you, particularly the name…[Read more]

@issawriter7

Aww, THANK YOU SO MUCH GIRL!!! <33333 *happily munches on chocolate* *talks with mouth full* Oh, good! I was hoping y’all wouldn’t mind. And THANK YOU for that!!! It was a line of dialogue from Alana, who is Caira’s BFF/sister figure, and she was tearfully telling this to Caira after Caira nearly died in an underground cave. There…[Read more]

@issawriter7

Whoa, incredible word count girl!!! <33 And *gasps* A NEW STORY? Yay, what is it about? If you don’t wanna spill the beans, I understand!! But also I’m super curious now and I ADORE that last line!! Of course, girl!! Thank you for writing with me!! We should do this more often!! <3333

@issawriter7 @nova21

So I just finished up writing (for now) and ended up with 1,597 words. Though… they are quite first draft-ish and not edited at all, but *shrug* that’s all right. I ended up going a little beyond what I figured time-wise, so sorry about that!! Anyways, fave line: “I… I almost lost the only friend I’ve ever had, Caira.”

@nova21

What a coincidence! I just finished up as well! That’s an incredible word count, well done! *claps* And I adore that last line!!! <33

@mkfairygirl

Aww, that’s fine girl!!! Hopefully you can still get some writing done later!!! <333 And THANK YOU, I made some great progress!!! So your motivation obviously helped!!! 🙂

@issawriter7 @nova21

You gals ready to start? I’m probably going to go ahead and begin! GOOD LUCK girls!!! 😉

@nova21

Awesome!! The more the merrier!!:)

@issawriter7

YAY!!! Honestly, these sprints have SAVED MY WRITING LIFE so I’m totally motivated to do them more often!!! And of course!!! It’s a thousand times better doing it with friends!!! 😀 See ya then!!! *gives chocolate for motivation*

@issawriter7 @daisy-torres @mkfairygirl @nova21

Anybody up for sprinting with me for a little while? I’m going to start in about 10 minutes and will probably write for about 45 minutes… still have to meet my NaNo word count. If anyone wants to participate, let me know!!:)

@abigail-m

Oh, girl you’re fine!!! Don’t worry one bit about it!!:) Aww, thank you so very much!! I was hoping that it fit the story and I don’t want to come across as being ‘pushy’ with the Christian message, but I thought that it fit Newton’s character quite well, especially with all the heartache he’s gone through. THANK YOU SO MUCH for s…[Read more]

@gracie-j

Aww, thank you girl!! I’m glad to hear you like the idea!! I’m still trying to figure out when exactly I want to include the conversion, however, especially in relation to the whole Newton & Caira romance thing. I’m thinking probably before all of that happens… though I’m not sure. What do you think? Agh, sorry. I’m rambling now.…[Read more]

@abigail-m

Oh, I forgot there was another question I was going to ask!! Though, don’t feel obligated to answer this if you don’t feel comfortable sharing spoilers or anything, I completely understand! I meant to put this in the earlier post, but forgot. *facepalm* If you were going to write a sequel, what would it be about? Sorry for asking, I’m…[Read more]

This is such a neat concept!!! I’m not sure how much help I’ll be (it seems that you’ve already been suggested most of the synonyms that I can think of), but I’ll definitely mull it over and see if I can think of any! Though Thesaurus .…[Read more]

@nova21 Whoa, I love this!!! Your synopsis is beautiful, and I loved all the titles!! (Also, just to let you know, my very-close-second choice was A Pair of Yellow Shoes. It’s just so intriguing.) Thank you so much for sharing!!!

@abigail-m

OH MY GOODNESS, that sounds so incredibly interesting!!! I would ADORE reading that story because I would LOVE to know how Mejia truly became The Snow Warrior!!! Also, *gasps* why does she get abandoned? That’s so sad, it just broke my heart to think about!! Poor Mejia… *sniffles* And THANK YOU so much for all of your replies!!! I…[Read more]

@kathleenramm

Aw, thank you!! <3 I like creating character arcs that are very drastic–where the character looks (and feels) like an entirely new character at the end, having learned life-changing lessons. Normally, I like to create redemption arcs. There’s something so heartwarming about watching a previously evil character become redeemed…[Read more]

@nova21

Aww, it’s okay girl!!! <3 I hope that helped you!! Haha, if it makes you feel any better, I wouldn’t know where to create something like that XD Oooh, I suspected so! I wasn’t sure though, with the title and all. Good luck with it (not that you’ll need it:) and your word count is AWESOME!! <3333

@nova21

Oh my goodness, girl, I LOVED this poll!!! It was a little difficult to choose a name because honestly all of them sounded gripping, but alas, I had to choose. I hope my input was helpful!! 🙂 And *gasps* I love that synopsis!! You have such a great way with words!! 😀 Is this a new story or an old one? Either way, I wish you the very…[Read more]

Whoa, girl!!! That looks so good!!! I may have to hire you for another drawing job soon if you wouldn’t mind XD 🙂 <333333
