Hi guys,
I have a rather enormous announcement/request to make.
For a while now, I’ve been wanting to create my own e-course. I’ve had an idea for it too. I wanted to cover the “show don’t tell” rule. Now, to many people, that would seem like a crazy idea for a course, since…[Read more]

@hope I love the last set as well. (Especially the first one!) However, there are lots of workable ideas in here and since you know your stories best… Tell us what you decide when you’re done. Also, random side note, do you have a blog? 😀

@hope There are a lot of great titles in here, I really like the last set, but the second to last I feel has more of a fairy tale feel to it with words like Blackened Rose, Crown, Seal. I think those will nicely fit your stories 😀

@hope I don’t know. How about…?
1. The Reckoning
2. The Affliction
3. The Triumph -

@Hope I like @Dragon-Snapper‘s suggestions, but I also think your three aren’t as terrible as they could be.
Except for the last.
Which is rubbish.
Excuse me.
*coughs* 😛But you had a good thing going there with the different wars. If you could think of a third war to make that last one fit, I don’t think that would be so terribly wretched.…[Read more]

*peeps over the Dragon Snapper and reads her suggestions*
Ummm. I love titles. A lot. Could you give us the first and last line in every novella? That might help with idea generating. 😀 -

Hey girly! Hope all is well with you, how are you little sister of mine?-
Not too bad, not too bad… Resounding, isn’t it.
I’m appreciating the invention of fans and air conditioners, mostly. XD I’m getting really excited too ’cause I’m almost done with my school…and then I’ll have SO MUCH MORE TIME FOR READING. I can’t wait.
Aaaand…stuff. Life. With ups and downs. But…many more downs than I experienced as a…[Read more]-
@emma-flournoy
Ah yes, ups and downs, isn’t that how life always works? I always look forward to your letters, and they brighten my day immensely.
I’ve…well…I’ve been alright myself. Every single day is full of me being busy. And of course not sleeping again isn’t helping my mental state. *Glares at a book review I promised Josiah but I wish…[Read more]-
Well for pity’s sake girl get some SLEEP! *shakes head* Sheesh.
Oh well. 😛
It makes me really happy to know my letters brighten your day. Same to yours.
And SIX BOOKS IN A WEEK? 😮 Whoa. Don’t think I’ve ever done that.
Welp, I’m prayin’ for you. I could start wallowing in cyncism with you, but I don’t think it’d help either of us. XD It’s…[Read more]-
@emma-flournoy
I know, I need sleep, but sleep doesn’t want me. I have some nice bags under my eyes to prove it.Anyway, I’m putting an entire ocean in our church today for VBS. I’m making an entire shipwreck by myself I have it started, but now I have to make it look cool besides just the wood frame stuck together so far. So that’s my entire…[Read more]

Oh-ho! Setting up a shipwreck. That sounds like fun. At least, in some ways. 😛 How’d it go?

You know you’re a writer when you set passwords to the most un-spellable un-pronounceable location names in the obscurest places of your fantasy world, which even if by a miracle someone was to find and pick the right one they’d never remember how to spell it. XD

Bethany looks up from daydreaming. If the wind is a beautiful elvish maiden, what is her name?
As Stewie yells, she jerks out of her daydream, grins awkwardly, and steps into the sandy court. “I’m not good at volleyball. But I’ll block wherever a tall person would be helpful!” - Load More
Really, really want to do this… I do need to be careful about how much time I realistically have, though. :/ What’s your planned schedule for this and when you’d need feedback by?
Ah, I should have mentioned that. My pace with this is going to be a little bit slow. I’ll try to write about a lesson a week. I only have my outline so far and a knowledge of the points I want to cover for each lesson. So this would be a gradual thing. I think honestly it might take me six months to get nailed down, though I might get ambitious…[Read more]
Got ya. I could give you feedback along the lines of #1 and #2 up through September 1st. After that, I may be able to give some sporadic feedback, but that will be completely dictated by my school schedule.
Okay, thanks. 😀 We’ll run with it.
Yes, yes, and yes again. When do I start?
I’m in. Absolutely. When do I start?
Haha. 😀 Great! Well, right now, if you want. This isn’t letting me post my original message, so I’ll try one piece at a time.
And here’s access to the course file. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzI8MlrraNgHekR6TWtEa2RTYW8?usp=sharing

I’ll try to do some lesson outlines this week. Maybe even today.
@kate-flournoy
WOW. You’ve got a lot of categories. 😛 I love it.
Me too! This is awesome.
Ah, time is a tricky thing. Well, I’ll leave it up to you. Does it make sense for you to do this if you’ll only be able to cover the first (and admittedly simplest) part? If so, I’d be glad to have you. If you’re not so sure though, you could potentially be a beta viewer when this part’s done. Or you just ignore this course and have a good life. 😛
@kate-flournoy @that_writer_girl_99 @aratrea Part 1 has outlines for all the lessons if you’d like to go check them out. 🙂 I’m hoping to write out lesson one today.
@sierra-r Have you seen this yet?
Awesome! I’ll look them over today, probably later tonight. @daeus
@Daeus which one is part one…
Part 1 – emotion telling. Right at the top of my outline. There are four lessons listed under it.
Aha, thanks. Found it. 😉
Which lessons make up Part 1? Is there a doc somewhere that categorizes/lists all these lessons?
Here’s the outline https://docs.google.com/document/d/1W87kcWtV1azNc5zA34D9jQ3yNl-wbnGDgYOnxAhrs5k/edit
In parentheses at the top it says (part 1 – emotion telling) The four lessons under that are the ones that have outlines.
