@dragon-snapper Definitely, deep third person. I think you get the perfect amount of objectivity and subjectivity with deep third person. Also, you know Josiah’s article? That’s why I like deep third person.

Mark Kamibaya replied to the topic NaNoWriMo in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 9 months ago
I’m late. How embarrassing! I finished NaNoWriMo with 50070 words. And that’s after a writing hiatus spanning one and a half years (plotting, you know?). So I feel pretty accomplished even five days later.
And I got this email from KP that said that it was mostly girls who finished NaNoWriMo. So I’m wondering if there were any guys (connected…[Read more]

@I-J-Anderson Irish? Oh wow, thanks. *grins* It’s French— Huguenot origin.
Yessssss! People— I love people. I’m not as good at painting them as I’d like to be; still life seems to be easier for some reason, but I love working with people because no two are alike and there’s such room for expression and personality. I love it.

@PerfectFifths good question. The difference between third person and deep third person is that deep third person actually delves into the thoughts of the characters, not just stays on the surface and monitors their actions.

@Anne-of-Lothlorien not me. I mean, I may have done it subconsciously in a few diary entries, but that’s about it. (My diary is a mess of gargantuan proportions from a literary standpoint. Don’t ask). 😛

@daeus so what exactly is permaculture?

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic First or Third? in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 9 months ago
Deep third person. I write sprawling epics with gazillions of characters, and deep third person works best for those kinds. If I was writing YA or something similar with only one MC, I’d probably choose first for a deep personal connection though.

@winter-rose I think I’m done now. I wrote about 444 words, which means I wrote about 1472 words total today. I also changed some things around and wrote a paragraph of planning. Thanks!

@nataliemarie Welcome to the bestistest place on the internets! (I’ll say it even if others have.) 😛
I’m the other dragon on here, and I breathe fire quite often. *looks pointedly at @kate-flournoy* I’ll tell you quite honestly that chairs and phones are quite fun to melt. But I’ll be nice and spare yours.
So, regardless of chairs and melting…[Read more] -

@bluejay @jess @daeus @kate-flournoy @winter-rose @hope @overcomer
Hello? Yes, I’d like to make an order to write? I’ll aim for a couple thousand words, maybe I’ll be here for an hour or so, who knows. I’m hoping others will join.
Alright, thank you, goodbye.

@daeus Wow! I don’t know if you’re over thinking this or if I’m underthinking it (probably the latter). Either way I respect whatever choice you make. And I’ll be sure to pray for you. As for Bible translations, I think the best is the ESV (and their study Bible is boss!), but I love reading different translations and comparing them.

Oh, dear. You asked the question. You see, most practitioners don’t even know how to define it, because it’s such a broad subject, but I came up with my own definition that I think hits it at the heart, and I double checked and receive a thumbs up on the definition from the guy who’s probably the leading permaculturist in the world. My definition…[Read more]
Wow… that is actually really cool. Yes, that does make sense. 😀 What would you do with it? Did you take classes or something? Or did you go to college?
@Daeus
No, it was an e-course. I think it lasted three months. At the end, you had to submit a proposal for a property design and then if you showed understanding of the material, they passed you. I actually did the Craig’s property. …and they still haven’t even seen the design. Which is fine, since I would need to edit it first.
