Um, well, it’s in the same style as Jane Eyre, which I have never written in, so, that’s been interesting. And hard to make short. I’ll have to head in a few minutes. Technically I’m in class, so, yeah. @daughteroftheking

Writing a short story… I think… @daughteroftheking
Attempting to write a short story. One that is less than 25k…

@daughteroftheking
Yep. You writing?

@shannon Am I even allowed to guess? XD

@emily Oh! Oh! Is it Riley from National Treasure?

@Dragongeek good point… 😛 Just try to find a power that actually fits with the story for a reason. Don’t just go for super-speed or super-strength ‘because’. Think through what would best fit.

What era/type of names are you looking for?

@Daeus I like that… not as much as Excelsior though.

Ugh. Decisions decisions.

You know what? I’m going to just throw caution to the winds and say go with Excelsior. I can’t think of anything I like better or even as well as. If you can think of a tagline of sorts to go with it though, so it’s more clear what it means and what it’s for, that…[Read more]

@daeus If you’re going to do Write Better Academy, then you have to do ‘Write More Better Academy.’ That’ll sell people, won’t it? 😉

@perfectfifths
XD Yes. What’s your quote?

@joy I’d say to go with the first one, mainly because I’ve heard of a lot of literature where the king has to ‘go on the run’. The first one, to me, sounds more original, and interesting. 😀

@daeus

And he comes to us for suggestions of names?

Yeah. I have no idea. You’d think a former fantasy writer would have a dictionary replete with such names, but I’ve never had a strong suit for that.

Only things I can think of are:
1) Lamb Technique School… [another loki facepalm please]
2) Writing School of Excellence
3) Lamb…[Read more]

@Alia hmmm… interesting. Okay. Thank you for pointing that out; I’ll have to look at it again.

@Daeus oooh, I really like the idea behind Excelsior, but most people are probably just going to go… ‘huh? Sounds like some weird Latin elitist club or something… *yawns**scrolls past*’

So… maybe something slightly less high and lofty and a little more down-to-earth. (Can’t believe I just said that.) I can’t think of anything right off the…[Read more]

Yay @joy   !

That’s really good, and even if you don’t feel like celebrating, you made an achievement! Yay! *thumbs up*

Okay, does anyone know why my tags are not working?

Hmmm… Well, @emily and all of you others, an Aussie from the other side of the world has turned up and is writing… but I sense you have all gone to bed. *glances at the sun that is still suspiciously high in the sky and shrugs* Oh well.

EEEEEEEP! *jumps up and down excitedly* I DID IT! *Grins happily* I finally got  to 50k and I still have more to write!

Good luck to all of you! It is possible!
