@dragon-snapper My peculiar sense of sarcasm is not limited to rules or sensibility. If you’d like an explanation, there’s this article I stumbled upon about Elizabeth Bennett that freaks me out with its parallelism.

I’ll fly away (just thinking of the swing.)
hmm… may have to think on this more.
Just a random note: make sure you work hard on backstory because conversions normally take place within a context and it’s hard to set that context within the limited space of a short story without putting a lot of effort into the backstory.

Yes, well, here’s my advice to you Brandon. The girls will treat you very nicely for the most part, buy you have to wear dragon proof armor at all times because they have a marked lack of protocol when it comes to making shish kabob out of people. *nods* I think you will survive.

@kate-flournoy I love Little Dorrit, and most of the other Dickens movie/mini series out there.
@sarah-h I’v heard of I am not Ashamed and it looks really good though I’ve not seen it yet.
I really want to see Priceless too.
And The Great Escape and The Imitation Game are really good. I didn’t care for Unbroken as much, but that was because…[Read more]

@mark-kamibaya The Inkheart books are even better. The first one seemed a little slow because the movie quickened everything so much, but I still liked it and I loved the next two. Inkdeath was my favorite.
Yes I’ve seen the Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock Holmes movies. They are pretty good. I’ve seen the Martian too. A few objectionable parts, but…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Nah, facebook isn’t crucial to marketing. Read your first 10,000 readers by Tim Grahl. He makes the great point that your energy is way better spent finding out ways to get your fans to promote you on social media, than promoting yourself.
@Michael-Stanton I don’t interact because I’m too lazy to do social media. Seriously, it’s…[Read more]

@rolena-hatfield Thanks. That’s good input. I’m gonna try to sift through that chapter soon and see if there’s any way I can tone it down without completely messing up the story. There’s one little detail in particular I’m already thinking I’m gonna change.
And a little update for y’all. Relational aspects are healing. Still a lot of difficult…[Read more]

Hope Ann replied to the topic Prayer Requests in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 8 months ago
I’m praying, @Daeus. I think I can safely say it’s not your writing which at fault. The scene is necessary as an inciting incident and it is tragic, but it isn’t gruesome. If everything written was sunshiny, then there’d not be much to write about…though I suppose hearing a murder in the first chapter could be startling if one wasn’t expecting…[Read more]

Oh, the man who never was. As far as I know, the part they have in there about the german spy isn’t real, but I think everything else is pretty much spot on to what really happened, or at least really close. Amazing story.

@kate-flournoy Welcome to the club; people generally think Joy is older than me too. And they are always surprised when I tell them I’m 22. It’s quite fun, really. 😉

@kate-flournoy Hey, well when you find out what it was, ship some of it to me.
I corrected a couple small things from three of my chapters then did some beta reading for Tessa. -
