@his-instrument Yes, I have read it. I wouldn’t say it’s my all-time favorite, but It’s probably in the top six or so. Very excellent book. The play is equally amazing. Its music ranks number 2 for me right under the Messiah.

@his-instrument I’ve not read Les Miserables, but my sister has.

I loved The Princess and the Goblin and The Princess and Curdie. Then it came to the end and I was like wait…what?!?!?

I ended up not reading The Mark of the Lion trilogy for that very reason. The violence I didn’t mind, but Mom didn’t care for the depth of the romance and…[Read more]

@his-instrument Go girl!!! I did something like that once (10,000 in two days) and it’s not easy. 😀 I’m currently only at 6000 words. Is your story flowing well then, or are you just pounding it out?

@warrioroftherealm Maybe the villain is out with his troops for some reason (supervising some important project possibly) and the MCs happen to see him. Maybe they see him turn invisible and happen to know some legend about a guy who could do that which lets them know who he is.

First of all, do the good guys just need to see the villain to know what he looks like, or do they need to interact with him through something like conversation or combat? Do they need to know that he is the villain, could they have no idea who he is, or could they be deceived into thinking he is someone he isn’t?

@aella This is becoming the busiest point of my year, so I haven’t been able to get to NaNo yet, but I should have a lot more time starting at the twentieth, so I’ll just do what I can now and pick back up then and try to get 25,000 words.

@aella

I got 2006 words today, after starting the story twice and then going over and rewriting the first 500 words. I’ll need to streamline and cut down the story later, but I’m pleased with the voice of the MC so far. 😉

@kate-flournoy Hmm… I like it. I’m very busy now, but I just might see if I can fit that in.

*Many thumbs up*

Here is my work of art for the evening. @daeus, @kate-flournoy, @everyoneelse

*smacks forehead* I forgot. Thanks to the dragoness for indirectly reminding me. @sierra-r Having entered the realm of the pen, you are hereby to receive a cloak.

*Hands you cloak* Happy sneaking around on the forum. This will help you if you ever want to remain unnoticed.

@Anne-of-Lothlorien I’ve read a few, like The Princess and the Goblin. I really like them.

Hmm. A forum takeover attempt would fail very badly.

@anne-of-lothlorien I think you could set it up under general writing discussions.

*looks* Oh, howdy!

I loved your article. Great you joined the team.

*wonders if you’ve read the count of monte cristo*

Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.

*Flies away on a mallard pulled chariot*

Yep. Vidangel is 100% wonderful.

Welcome @Sierra-R! Welcome to the best mixture of weirdness, randomness, encouragement, and occasional theological discussion on the internet. You shan’t be disappointed. Though, of course, having stalked us, you know that already. 😉

@mark-kamibaya Yes, we started using Vidangel recently and it works really well…besides being only $1 for a movie after the original $20 is paid.

*MANY THUMBS UP* 🙂

Congradulistactions, @dragon-snapper!!! It is so nice to complete a novel, no matter how many years *coughs* I mean, months, follow. *smirks* I’m so encouraging, aren’t I? Seriously though, congratulations. 🙂 80,000 words is quite the achievement.
