@That_Writer_Girl_99 good thoughts. I played around a lot with government and where it fits in, but it was so equally part of all four of the pillars I couldn’t bring myself to make it its own separate one. 😛
It’s probably the most perfect manifestation of a country’s EiL within itself, whereas Economy is a further exploration of that outside of…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 Ooooh I was talking about this a while back… let me go copy and paste my emails… XD

It’s a fairly simple thing, but once you delve into it there’s a lot to work with.
Basically, I came up with four pillars I think every culture is built on.

1. History
2. Religion
3. Geography
4. Economy

In that order. History and Religion…

Never mind! You have worked it out! And cool prompt.

Hi @emily-d! Great prompts! You can insert images by having them uploaded onto the internet, then copying their URL and pasting it in the option that says, “IMG” I get rid of the auto https//. *thumbs up*

@anne-of-lothlorien Ah, look what you did to Christi!

@christi-eaton

@daeus Yup, one week should do it! I’m looking forward to reading this! Do you want me to do what I did last time or something totally different? And I shall click the ‘here’ thing.

*dies*

@dekreel Welcome! I’m glad you finally made your way to the forum. It’s a cool place. Elizabeth was so nice to summon me over here because I too am a fan of Wingfeather. Have you read The Wingfeather Tales? That’s probably my favorite because almost all of my favorite authors are in one place. Have you read any of Andrew Peterson’s brother’s or…[Read more]

*nods sagely* Greetings.
So…*rubs hands together* Welcome to the bestistest place on the internets! Ah, instrumental. I love instrumental as well. Who are some of your favorite artists?

Greetings back atcha, @Dekreel! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet. 😀 Cool! What poem was that?
What genre do you write? What’s your favorite book, if you can choose one? What kind of music do you like?

@anne-of-lothlorien Lovely! XD

@daeus Nice one. You got a line of respect. 😛

You know you’re a writer when you’re decided whether you want to include someone’s backstory or not, and decide to do so not because it’s fun to write, but because it’s heart wrenching and when you say so, your sister says only this, “Sigh.”

@Jess lovely topic. I have a lot of thoughts on unhappy endings, but I haven’t got time to consolidate them all now, so I’ll just leave you with the biggest two.

The first is the concept of catharsis. The reader must be satisfied in some way or other. The reader must feel that something was gained; that the world is somehow better as they leave…[Read more]

Hmmm, a 52k doc? *thinks* I reckon you can toss me in the early group if you need someone. There are 8 days left of October, and I can write 50 in 20 or so days easily. However, the sooner I can start the beta-ing process the better. And yay! I like that style of beta-ing!!! *fingerguns* Looking forward to it @catwing!

@Catwing Yes! That’s a great idea! Very unique! *nods* Glad to be of service.

But now I must depart. Good luck on thy iron gongs. 😀

Gongs! I love gongs! Such great sounds. 😀

@Catwing No dragon hoard? …Well, for those poor dragons of the lesser class *inspects talons* they usually spend their time lazily sleeping as you said. Doing nothing. There’s a reason they have no gold.

@catwing That could work. Dragons like to pretend they know a lot, be we really just count our gold for centuries. Not that it gets boring or anything.

@catwing

Perhaps because the fact that they are cold-blooded helps them not to burn up while breathing fire in the first place. Or maybe because they drink hot-sauce…*shrugs*
I’m editing, then I’ll be evilly plotting.
