Anyone writing?

@kaya-young that last one literally made me laugh out loud. 😀

But I really like that first one. Its pretty cool!

@kaya-young

Oh and yes! I’ve done blackout poetry! Remember that time KP did the blackout poetry contest? I wrote an entry for that, though I never entered it, and it was also a lot of fun! Have you done much blackout?

@kaya-young

I sometimes write free form poetry, just to get my thoughts out, usually in my journal. I have tried writing an “Epic” poem, which ended up being longer than some of my short stories and I structured it around syllables (each line had, I think, fourteen syllables), which gave it a really nice flow. That’s not a very popular way of…[Read more]

@alia

The writer in me can’t help but be fascinated. I’ll definitely be praying for you, the doctors, your family and her!

By the way, thank you to all who prayed for my wrist. It’s almost completely healed now and I’m so grateful for your prayers 😀 @rochellaine @jenwriter17 @ariel-ashira and everyone else 😀

@alia Oh, wow.  Yes, I will be praying!

@alia Of course I’ll be praying!

You know you’re a writer when you feel you should explain to your mom why she walked in on you downloading pictures of strangers off the internet. “He looks like my character. It’s for a collage… thing… it isn’t weird…”

@alia I’ll pray for you guys. <3

I have a request

one of my younger sisters has a rare form of dwarfism. In fact, she is one in six known cases. When God called my family to CO it was a gift because one of the doctors at the children’s hospital specializes in the type of dwarfism that my sister’s is a branch off of. Anyway, H is nine years old and loves playing sports and riding…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 *blushes* Goodness!  Thank you. 🙂

@gh24682468999 I write structured poetry.  Daeus did too, but he’s not here anymore.  (He’s one of those traitors that snuck off to join the enemy at Story Embers. 😛 )  I’m horrible at giving advice, but I would guess reading a lot of good poetry would help.  I write mostly comic poems, so I don’…[Read more]

@kaya-young I like writing lots of different styles and rhyme patterns and rhythm patterns.  I don’t know what blackout poetry is.  One of my favorite poems is called The Destruction of Sennacherib by Byron.  Thats the first one that comes to mind.  Here, I’ll post it for you.

The Destruction of Sennacherib

@rochellaine

I enjoy it, mostly because I often manage to find character pictures on it :D. But I get so distracted as well. (Whoops)

And yep, I understand all those random first sentences that you scribble down and find randomly? They’d make great prompts though.

*breaths a sigh of relief* I’ll practise, I promise. and it would be super cool…[Read more]

@seekjustice I never understand pinterest. 😀  I look at stuff on it once in a while, but not often.

I edit, and edit, and edit, too. 😛  But I do it with everything. All those little “first chapter” bits that I write when I have an idea, but not the time to complete it?  I go through them all and edit once in a while, whenever I am looking fo…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I don’t know…Personally, I love Pinterest even though its…super distracting!

Editing takes me forever. When I’m doing a first draft, I literally just write, I don’t edit at all, so it takes only a few weeks. But editing…I agonise over every single word. Everything has to be better. I become obsessed and spiral into madness.…[Read more]

@seekjustice Is it strange that I don’t have a pinterest account? 😉

Haha, well, that’s the way I feel with my western.  I was wondering if maybe we’re opposites when it comes to writing and editing?  It takes me forever to write even a little, but I can edit pretty quickly, (as you might remember from the time I rewrote that passage of the w…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Exactly right. Now I’m looking at Jen’s pinterest and choking on laughter 😀

It’s coming along well. (Translation of that being: I’ve edited 3,000 out of 103,000 words. Yeah, hopefully you’ll be able to read it before you’re…too old.)

@seekjustice Yup, yup!  That’s what happens.  You go on vacation, then you need a vacation from the vacation! 🙂

How is Stars coming along?  Is it nearly done? (Translation: Will I get to read it again soon?)

@rochellaine

Well, at least your working on something. 😀

It was really good, I liked it a lot. But I’m still exhausted!

@seekjustice And I’m working on, guess what? My western! 😛  Of course.

Did you have fun at camp?
