Don’t normally do this, but I got to a good stopping place, so I’m stopping a tad early. Edited 933.

Wow @bluejay congratulations!!!!!!! So happy for you!
Um… more brilliant ideas? Oh boy… *think. think. think think think* Write a story about a beggar who dreams of saving the kingdom and marrying the princess? There’s only one catch— he’s a dragon.
Oh boy that is lousy.Uuuuummmmmmm… gimme a bit to think it over, please? 😀 I’ll let…[Read more]

Is anyone writing now? @daeus @kate-flournoy, @hannah-c I’m not sure what I’ll be writing, but if all else fails I will be trying to write a poem.

*Yells for everyone to hear* 9,312 words!!!!!!! It’s finished. (at least the first draft) Still a lot of work to get it to a readable story but….*throws confetti* Yippee!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 *Goes back and grabs sundae to celebrate.
(Oh and @kate-flournoy, do you have any more brilliant ideas? Cause if you do, I’m ready for another lot.)

@overcomer is there such a thing as a mega-epic? 😛 I’m afraid that’s what I write. It’s actually a bit annoying, sometimes— I really admire strong, simple storytelling, but I can’t seem to keep anything simple to save my life. 😉

BlueJay replied to the topic W.I.P. Lounge Club (Writers Only!) in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 3 months ago
@hope thanks.
@overcomer no problem. Ooh an Epic!?! Good luck. I have only just reach novellettes so I still have a distance to go. 😉 Yes, long books are great, but I still fly through them in one day. Some in half a day.:)

Ah @kate-flournoy. Yes, I see your point.
@hannah-c Wow! I love it. Especially since they are in the sea. 🙂 That’s great. Thank so much.
@hope, that’s okay. 😉

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Song writing in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 10 years, 3 months ago
@Bluejay I don’t necessarily think you need to include the song itself, but a description of the music would be nice. Just it’s tone— melancholy, cheerful, stirring? What’s it sound like? And what quality is the sound? Clear? Deep? Vibrant? Shrill? Tinkling? Whispering? You might also describe character reactions to it— leaning back and…[Read more]

Writing a book so far is a confusing but fun process. The hardest part for me perhaps is to not overthink everything. I want it all to be perfect, but a perfect first draft is unrealistic, and not a very writer healthy hope …
Goodness, you said it! I struggle with the same thing. I want to make everything perfect in the first draft, and I w…[Read more]

@overcomer I’m wrapping up the planning stage for my novel, and then I’m moving into writing the first draft!

I got some books for research for my next novel. It’s historical revisionist, but I still need a lot of the historical stuff in there. I’ve also got my outline just about done. I basically just have to work on some details of the climax.

Okay. I’m stuck. But I guess that is obvious as I’m here. I need a song. It doesn’t have to be long, but I feel that I should add at least a verse or two. Or rather I need a poem. As it will be in a story with no music. It needs to runs along the theme “I love you, do you love me?” It is a song that appears in my story “The Golden Conch”.
