@Daeus – “They eat frogs so we shouldn’t listen to them.” This was great! 😀 Good job on your first video.

@daeus Wow, you have shown me the light! I can now write a successful English novel! 😀 And you’re totally right about France. We shouldn’t listen to them, especially because of the frogs. 😉
In all seriousness, though, that was great, and you have gotten a new subscriber! *British accent* I look forward to seeing what other bookish humour and…[Read more]

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Prayer Requests in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 9 months ago
@GracieGirl awesome. 😉
For those of you who have been praying about my jaw… everything seems to be going okay. We’ve had some lingering complications with the muscles (they got pretty badly inflamed, apparently) and with the vertebrae at the base of my skull, but things are getting straightened out and it doesn’t look like there should be any…[Read more]

@daeus Wow. Interesting video! Very funny xD Although I must disagree with you though… I don’t think women are originally from France xD
I definitely agree with you about literature always killing readers. I don’t have a medic on hand, but I think I should probably get one.
But really, I have almost actually hurt myself while reading. Like…[Read more] -

@daeus I am trying to write a vengeance plot, but I’m stuck now. I think I’m going to try writing a bunch of different plots with different trees and see which one is best.
@seekjustice I really like the Hiroshima Bonsai tree idea. I think I’ll try that one next once I research it xD

@daeus I know, right! It looks awesome. But yeah, I don’t think I can make a trip from California to Idaho anytime soon.

Hey anonymous tag! Hope your account is up and working soon. 😀 WELCOME. And the bestistest thing was indeed a @Daeus original.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Character's Age in the forum Characters 8 years, 9 months ago
@SeekJustice hey, everyone does. No biggie. 😛 I will be the first to confess that my name is cumbersome. 😉 In retrospect, I probably should have made my tag just @Kate, but oh well. (@Daeus @Rolena-Hatfield actually is there any way I can change it?)
Great question. You’ve got a lot of good answers here already, but I’ll just add my two cents…[Read more]

@daeus A vengeance plot would be cool…
Kinda like how the ents attacked Isengard. -

@seekjustice
Great question!
First, let me try to think up a reasonable response…
…
…
Personally, I love it when the character is exactly my age, but because YA is such a broad age group, that rarely happens. From 12-18, it’s hard to find a happy medium for everyone in an age group.
So.
As far as I know, the characters I’ve read in YA have…[Read more] -
Grace H. replied to the topic Hello in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 9 months ago
Wow so many questions 🙂
@Shannon: I don’t have much of a preference, but recently I’ve liked Grace Vanderwaal’s music, and I often sing worship music.
@Elizabeth: Thanks 😀
@Daeus: I first got started when I took the Common Writing Assessment in 3rd grade, and the person who graded it gave me a perfect score. And I’ve been reading for…[Read more]

Hey there KeePers!
I need advice. Currently I’m looking at how I’ll need to improve my WIP and what I need to change as I get ready to start on my second draft. I’ve identified a few things I want to change but I’m in two minds about my mc’s age. The novel is a superhero/scifi YA but my character is 24/25ish.
My question is: do you think I should…[Read more] -

@Dragon-snapper, sure! I can share the Google Doc with you, if that works? I think I’ll need an e-mail address for that, though. You can contact me here: https://ofdreamsandswords.wordpress.com/contact/.
@Daeus, I have your e-mail, so I’ll send you a summary that way, so as not to spoil things for other people.

Endings are kinda my thing.
HA.
You mean, like, endings that leave readers emotionally wrecked at 3 a.m.?
