@Cloudy I really like the intent/picture of the poem. The only thing I would suggest is either make it more obviously a rhyming poem or more obviously free verse, because I was a little confused by the alternating patterns.
Otherwise, I really like it. 🙂

@feedingmygoldfish welcome! Did you draw your profile picture? I really like it. 😀 Have you read “Anne Of Green Gables?” You seem like someone who would enjoy her. 😀

1. I don’t outline. Nasty habit, I know. But it just doesn’t seem to work for me yet. I need practice. But the faucet of ideas just doesn’t flow until I start writing. So I can’t help on that topic. SKIP TO THREE

3. I use google docs. And I haven’t tried scrivener so I have no opinion. But I love google docs.

4. I would research…[Read more]

I’m bad with meter. I’m not done with the poetry curicculum and mom lost it like, two years ago. 🙁 But what meter would you suggest? I’ll look it up and try to tweak it. @daeus

I know I need to fix the narration. That’s why it’s in here! Thanks for the input! I’m glad you liked the ending. @jess

@winter-rose you’ll probably be done by the time I can write, but once I finish baking bread this afternoon, (I have to start by 2:00 p.m.) since the weather is spectacular, I’ll be in my favorite spot mapping out my children’s story. 😀

Congrats, Claire! @clairec

Here’s the thing–I’ve only recently started to outline any part of my stories whatsoever, so the outlines for my current WIP are more than a little scatterbrained.

What I find myself doing the most is writing a sort of outline where the plot points are emphasized–that way, I can fill in the blanks and add in the…[Read more]

Everyone here has already asked you a bunch of questions, but who’s your favorite author?

After I finish my AA, I’m going to be a creative writing major, and although I like writing poetry, it doesn’t come easily, so I definitely respect you for that.

Welcome to KP! *flies off to go brainstorm*

Today I reviewed Matthew 6:1-4. It’s funny how when I first memorized that small passage, it took me about half an hour but now it would take me about 10 minutes. Memorizing just gets easier and easier guys!

Awesome, @clairec! That definitely is a major step. Now for my answers

1. I’ve written an extended outline, but I’ve made some changes to my first novel so I have to rewrite my extended outline. 🙁 Personally, I dove straight into a first draft and then (after finding nuggets of gold in the sea of trash) I started intense theme/character/story…[Read more]

Now if somebody comes on the forum whose name is winter-rose, but their handle is @gabrielle . . .

@winter-rose I tagged you above as @gabrielle. Stupid me.

Well, it’s been about a week. And I don’t think anyone else will read the article so . . .

@daeus Thanks, man. How antiheroes were treated in the past is probably a little more speculative than most of my findings (I’m not that old, right). I just found that the popular figures in Greco-Roman mythology were classical heroes (Hercules, Achilles,…[Read more]
