Okay, I’m open to more dares, because I need more ideas! @winter-rose, @ingridrd, @gretald, @daeus, @anna-brie, @bluejay, and anyone else who wants to challenge me.
Easy dare to anyone who wants it: Use the word “flabbergasted” in whatever you’re writing right now. Because it’s just a fantastic word.
I love your profile pic, Ingrid. Lord of the…[Read more]

@Daeus Sorry I didn’t respond until now. I was at a drama workshop all day. 🙂

I suggested Sign of Four because it was the only Sherlock Holmes novel haven’t read yet. However, if the people who haven’t read Sherlock Holmes think reading Sign of Four would be confusing as it isn’t the first novel in the series, then let’s read A Study in…[Read more]

@bluejay
I accept the dare!
My profile is Arwen (how do you spell it?) from LOTR. 🙂

@his-instrument, facts about Africa… Particularly, South Africa. South Africa has eleven official languages, one of which is English. Therefore no one needs to learn another language. We have other languages, but they are unspoken ;).

We work mostly in schools, though my dad will preach anywhere that will take him. Before I went to…[Read more]

@bluejay. Stopping now. I got 894 edited in 40 min.

@bluejay That was Aussie-some

@bluejay I’m starting early tonight.

@Adry_Grace, I love your idea! I don’t think I can work it into my current novel but it would make a great scene… And it would take a great character to have a pet emu. I accept your dare and will let you know when I use it.
My dare to you and @bluejay : Your main character receives a letter from a close friend or family member which changes…[Read more]

Oh sorry, @bluejay. Is that history? Well, it seems very impressive, especially since it was writing not editing. Congratulations.

Hey @bluejay, you don’t happen to know of Geoff Lawton do you?

Sorry @bluejay, but I started a bit early today, so I’m feeling kinda tired of editing. I got 1,081 words done in about an hour though, so just see if you can beat that.

Ok, sweet @bluejay. I’m all the way till nine.

@Bluejay do you speak from experience?! 😛

Sure @kate-flournoy. I’ll pray for your recovery too. I’d just advise you don’t reprogram any of the good parts of your brain.

… and don’t let a mad scientist reprogram your brain.

I guess Tessa’s back, so the writing corner will go on. Speaking of which, @bluejay, did you mean 10:00 my time or your time?

Giant rats!? Ugh… 😉 I’ve always envied you guys over there the platypus, though. 😀 Good work on the poem. You listed such a random bunch of stuff, and yet it wove a completely coherent picture. I love it. 🙂

@Bluejay

Thank you @Bluejay.

@gretald, Henty has some very good books, Top three (my opinion 🙂 ) “In Freedom’s Cause” ‘By Pike and Dike’ “The Cat of Bubastes.” “By Right of Conquest,” ‘Knight of the White Cross,’ “Lion of the North,” ‘Lion of St. Mark’ being very near competitors.

@rolena-hatfield, 29 more books? I might have miscounted then… I was only aware of four…[Read more]

Urgh. @bluejay

@Bluejay Wonderful job! Making your readers cry is quite a feat. 😉 I’ve only accomplished it a couple times, myself. It’s so hard because sometimes, when you think you’re writing something moving, sometimes the reader will get a different impression…like thinking something is funny, when it wasn’t meant to be. *sigh*
