Snapper replied to the topic Coarse language in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@bluejay That verse pretty much sums this topic up for me. 😉
But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give an account of it in the day of judgement. For by you words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned. ~ Matthew 12:36-37

Julia R. replied to the topic First or Third? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@anne-of-lothlorien: I have written a short Choose-your-own-Adventure story in second person. It was fun, but incredibly difficult! I can’t imagine doing 2nd person in any other way than a CYOA. That’s one thing I never liked about CYOA’s. Sometimes, they would say things like, “If you decide to chase after the criminal, go to page 8. If you…[Read more]

Anne of Lothlorien started the topic Do You Have a Blog/Website? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
Okay, so I really like reading other people’s blogs/websites. My favorites are You Write Fiction, Writing in the Light, and Writefury. So I was looking for other Christian blogs to read, mostly about writing, and I wondered if anyone on here has one.
Now, I will not allow you to say, Oh, I know this girl who has a friend who has a good one.…[Read more] -
Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic Quote That in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@bluejay You were right. *tap nose for you*
@dragon-snapper That was my first thought but I’ve seen most of the commercials and didn’t recognize it.
@Mark-Kamibaya What on earth is La-La Land? Isn’t that where people go when they are dreaming?
Here’s a new one.
“Throw yourself in next time and rid us of your stupidity!”
Now someone HAS to…[Read more]

Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic First or Third? in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
I used to ONLY write third person, and I had no idea if it was omnipotent, or omnipresent, or whatever. Still don’t quite remember those. @Daeus what are those things?
But now I write mostly in first person. I like focusing on one person personally better, and it lets me put in weird thoughts that I probably wouldn’t if it was third person.
But…[Read more]

@bluejay @jess @daeus @kate-flournoy @winter-rose @hope @overcomer
Hello? Yes, I’d like to make an order to write? I’ll aim for a couple thousand words, maybe I’ll be here for an hour or so, who knows. I’m hoping others will join.
Alright, thank you, goodbye.

Anne Swiftblade replied to the topic Children story ideas in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@bluejay One thing you could do is find a sibling or a friend of a sibling or really any child who is in the age range you’re writing for and ask them what they want to see in a story.
Another rout to go all together is try and focus on a real life problem that children have. Maybe a pet dies, or (like @mark-kamibaya said) they move. It doesn’t…[Read more]

Snapper replied to the topic Writers' Corner #3 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 11 months ago
@daeus I worked on a character map and wrote half of a notebook page description of a certain setting or another. Mostly, I was actually on the course-language topic. Woops. 😛 And good job! Glad its coming back!
@jess @bluejay I’m still going for a bit. I need to get something productive done, like plot… -
