You know you’re a writer when you can’t use certain words because no one knows what they mean.
You know you’re a procrastinator if you have to put a sign on the top of your computer that says ‘back to work’.

@Aratrea I won’t be able to do any of those. :'( It’s the time, unfortunately. That specific period is really busy for our whole family on any normal day, and with a new baby in the house (yes! New little sister; tenth sibling! 😀 ) I would feel really bad about shrugging my work off on the others, even if only for an hour.
You guys have fun though. 🙂

Ugh, yes. *reassures self* Okay. I actually think I’m starting to get somewhere. Thanks to everyone who helped me out!

That’s a great idea @audrey-caylin Why didn’t I think of that? *facepalm*

I’m sure I will @jane-maree I just need to get used to the process.

I definitely will. Instructions are always appreciated!

@that_writer_girl_99 The wall is not our friend. 😀
For starting chapter outlines, I usually have already written at least a little of bit of my book so far. Maybe a page, a paragraph, a chapter, a prologue. something that will get me going. From that, I’ll simply describe what happens in a few sentences and stem off of that for planning…[Read more]

That seems rather straightforward, haha. I think it’s the expanding thing I have a problem with–coming up with interesting things to sprinkle into the scene, coming up with dialogue, and all that.

Ah, yes…I was there…though I didn’t intend on the discussion going in that direction…

I’ve never been great with travel scenes, either. They tend to be rather boring…

Ugh, I’m hitting a wall…

Chapter outlines–anyone have tips on how to start writing them?

@jane-maree @audrey-caylin I’m signing out now. I edited a 10-12 long page story, and wrote 106 words.

Yes, definitely! @sierra-r

I’m here, I’m here! I’ll be planning for half an hour. @dragon-snapper @jane-maree

@audrey-caylin Hi, don’t think we’ve met yet! I’m new!

I love this. So much. Please move it to the top of your bottomless pile of graphic ideas so that I can plaster it across every social media platform I have. More people need to understand the importance and serious business of water flinging 😀

@audrey-caylin Oh. Travel scenes. Those are the bane of my existence.

@jane-maree It’s delicious! *takes more*

@jane-maree I love your motivational pizza.

@audrey-caylin Come on in!

@jane-maree Great!
