@william-starkey I want to know why Bill reminds you of raisins. Is there a story here?

Yeah…I don’t write music too often; mostly piano compositions.

@r-m-archer Thanks for the heads-up. Should have that fixed.

@william-starkey Whoa, how did you change your tag? That’s so cool. Anyway, welcome back, my dude. Nice photo.

Oh, and I may have, uh, made my website on a whim And since links are working again, here it is.

@gracie-j I’m nearing the end/climax of the story [fifth draft]. I love this book but it’ll be nice to be done with this round of edits! XD Thanks for that recommendation!

@gracie-j Hi! 😀 I’m kind of going back and forth from editing, researching pitching articles to websites, and research about the election. XD

@seekjustice @rochellaine @alia @gracie-j @dekreel @valtmy

I’ll be around for a bit today…

@gracie-j No, I haven’t seen Leon (or William, as his new name proclaims). I hope he’s doing well, though.

@godlyfantasy12 Nice.

I always like to spend the New Year outlining projects I want to finish in the year.

@godlyfantasy12 That sounds like a lot of fun! I wish you luck!

Hmm…after my tests next week I’ll probably spend November working on another idea I had, and hopefully be done with it by the end of December.

@kathleenramm Not really, haha. The closest would be a few days ago when I dreamed I was watching Makoto Shinkai’s new non-existent anime. When I woke up I really wanted to write it down, but I forgot the ending, unfortunately.

@gracie-j Ah thank you for your advice! I’ll definitely keep that in mind.

@gracie-j You have sisters who want you to read to them? Can’t relate, haha… Do you have any tips on blogging? I’m currently being tempted by the “blog” button that my website creator has…even though I told myself I wouldn’t…

@gracie-j I’m not sure if I count because I only publish web fiction, haha. I really like this idea.

But in the case that web fiction does count…I’ve posted a short story and a novella on Webnovel so far, and am hoping to work on much longer works some time. You can read basically anything I write for free here….…[Read more]

@gracie-j Though, to be honest, sometimes I’ll pull out some of my more recent (better writing) and I’ll flip randomly to somewhere and start reading, and I actually kind of enjoy that. I usually have no memory of writing whatever it is, and then when a character says something it’ll make me laugh a little. Only the recent ones, though. The old…[Read more]

@princessmk My favorite subject would probably be literature. What about you?

@princessmk I love chocolate chip cookies!

Oh, wow, I can’t believe I haven’t heard of any of these books. My favorites are: The Little Prince, Oliver Twist, East of Eden, My Sweet Orange Tree, Night on the Galactic Railroad, and Fahrenheit 451.

Are you homeschooled, by any chance? We have a lot of homeschoolers here (including myself) 🙂

@princessmk I mean the one you and your sister are writing together. That sounds cool; maybe I should ask my sister if she wants to work on a story together sometime.

What do you like to bake? And what are some of your favorite books?

@godlyfantasy12 Nice haha. I could never do that. I get super embarrassed reading my own stuff out loud, my parents prefer me to talk to them in Chinese, and I’m supposed to be studying most of the time anyway.

I really like the idea stage. It makes me want to write, but unfortunately things get in the way, so that when I actually get around to…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 That sounds like a great plan! It’s so helpful to have family members read through things; I have my sister do mine and she absolutely tears it apart, as all siblings should. She is not happy at the prospect of looking through 52 volumes of stuff. She’ll probably quit by then, tbh.

What’s your favorite point in the writing process?

@kathleenramm Yay! I’ll take a cookie any day!

@godlyfantasy12 I’ll take that tea to go with this cookie 🙂

@gracie-j (It’s because I tell myself I gotta do this before Jesus comes or I die. That’s how I manage to get through everything. Deadlines, scheduling, numbers…I feel like that’s one of the better things about myself.)

Anyway, quality vs quantity! Both are good, but really, the stuff I wrote at the beginning was trash. (And I don’t even want…[Read more]
