If you’ve read the lord of the rings, you should read the Silmarillion too.

Oh, and definitely read crime and punishment! You may like The death of Ivan Ilych as well.

There are more, but those are enough to start with.

@salome01w4g I can totally sympathize. I used to have bad back problems. I still have some pain, but I’m mostly recovered. Feeling discomfort after 30 minutes isn’t abnormal, but if you’re in pain from sitting that long, it sounds like you have back issues. I find that those ball chairs are more comfortable than normal chairs and standing is…[Read more]

@salome01w4g I worked up to it.

@dragon-snapper @jane-maree @winter-rose @graciegirl @ethryndal @salome01w4g I’ll be writing till 8:15-8:30

Tall, yes. Pointy ears, probably. I like elves to be generally good, but a bit aloof. Grave in council but merry in company. Basiclaly, I like Tolkien’s elves and I don’t want anybody to reimagine them. If they do, they should create a totally different creature.

@salome01w4g Yes.

@hannah Yes.

@ck4always Ah. Do you have a google account? If you don’t, you should really get one. If you do, you’re all set. just google “google drive”. It’s an awesome file storage system.

You come on here and ask if anyone wants to write with you for half an hour.

Welcome, @ck4always 🙂

You have now entered the bestistest place on the internet! How’d you find us? Is there a novel you’re working on at the moment?

@kate-flournoy Excellent. 😀

One option actually would be to do ecards.

@lifeofkatie @graciegirl

The theme I’m generally getting here is that we need to treat our reader’s with a servant’s heart. I went ahead and wrote on a piece of paper: “I exist to be a servant to my readers as Christ served the apostles,” then hung it up on my wall. Hopefully I’ll actually follow that principle. 😉

One thing I thought of that I…[Read more]

Great ideas, @kate-flournoy. Physical mail would be awesome to get as a reader. The only problem is getting addresses and non-continental shipping.

Alright, @aratrea! This is an official petition that I be allowed to interview Nadine a second time.

@salome01w4g Um…hahhahahahahahahaha….Haha!!! I’m a girl Snapper. XD XD 😛
@catwing I was writing, but I must away now. I wrote 800 ish words. Farewell.

@salome01w4g Some time is better than no time, write? 😛 Glad to have you back.

@catwing It’s just me and you for the moment.

@catwing Greetings, fellow writer. 🙂
