@daeus Hi again. 😀

@dragon-snapper I’m back.

@dragon-snapper Just a moment. I’ll be back in 5.

@Daeus ‘Sup.

@winter-rose @delightinlife @that_writer_girl_99 @ethryndal @jess @audrey-caylin @dragon-snapper @graciegirl I’m writing till 9.

@delightinlife Ooh yay! Chocolate! Thank you for the motivation. 😛 This one is harder than my last.

@winter-rose @daeus @that_writer_girl_99 @ethryndal @jess @northerner @anyone
I’ll be writing the sequel to LKD if anyone wants to join me.

Thanks all!
After considering everything you all said, I decided I probably won’t keep them. I mainly just had them before because I don’t know. I had no reason really. They weren’t very good ones anyway.

@anne-of-lothlorien This is great!!! You’re character in Ali is great! Even from the beginning I feel terrible that she has to go through that with her family. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

@winter-rose I’m done for now. I made some edits to my short story.

Hi guys! The story is due in a few days, (the 16th), though I want to turn it in by tomorrow. 😛 Anything I’m missing from this revised draft? (The editors said I should work more on character, so if you see anything that might be able to make it deeper, let me know.) Thanks!

@winter-rose If you’re still there, I’m editing.

So… I have been tagged.
I would love to share a bunch of great “how to write sci fi” info with you… but I have two issues:
1. I really don’t know much. I didn’t spend a lot of time in the genre until a couple of years ago and I’m still playing catch up. Yes, I write it… but not terribly well. Not yet.
2. What little I do know I just put…[Read more]

Yes, you did just make Brandon’s day, thank you very much! I’m glad I can pretend to be helpful and actually pull it off.

Also, Nadine Brandes’ blog (and newsletter) are fantastic. Check them out. (But you know that, don’t you Rolena…)

@sleepwalkingMK Sorry it took so long, but here is Joshua.

@emily-d 😀 I’m asking myself the same question.

@aysia-serene Yeah, I’ll re-compile the list. 😛

@emily-d You don’t have to read a mountain of books. The more you can read the better, but 5-10 could get you by. Reading sci-fi to learn about it is different than writing yourself into it. You’ll never know the full potentials of your genre or be able to avoid the way overused cliches unless you read the genre.

@graciegirl Yep. 🙂 Another thing that came to me is that I think the key event is his commitment to vengeance.
