These are all really neat!! They seem to differ a lot but at the same time overlap with each other if that makes any sense lol!! But that’s Creatives for you XD

@keilah-h

Yes, they’re wolves. It’s still in first draft form, but… I like it. =) Thanks!

I think it ate my thingy. Maybe I made it long. I shall try again.

Its a full scene, not a line, but anyway…

Flickers of light glinted back, caught on gossamers in the murky darkness. Holding the torch as high as the cavern roof allowed, Meyani crept down stairs, counting each crumbling step. Two-and-ten, three-and-ten, four-and-ten…

A heap o…[Read more]

Well, I have been working on this scene for some time now, mulling it over it in my mind, so I finally wrote it down, even though I haven’t gotten near this part of my book yet. Its not exactly a line- a whole scene to be exact. But anyway…

@lydia-s Nice, nice! I’m quite in love with Steinbeck and Dostoyvesky, throw in some Ray Bradbury and Dickens here and there, and there are so many more titles I’ve been meaning to read. Your literature program sounds fun! I’ve been meaning to take one at some point, haha.

@kathleenramm

Classical. I grew up on it, so the older vocabularies don’t bother me. The depths in story, the mixture of poetry in prose, all the types and shadows… I feel more at home with classics than modern literature.

But I haven’t read much truly old stuff beyond Pilgrim’s Progress, some Shakespeare, and Canterbury Tales (which I do not…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Welp, I love revising. Writing itself is difficult and obnoxious.

Let me rephrase that; I enjoy writing, but I struggle turning off the strong-minded inner editor who then destroys all my work because it’s in first draft stage and therefore terrible. However, as rewriting is my favorite part of writing in general I usually don’t…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon lol!! That is understandable!!! Drafting (writing in GENERAL) is ROUGH!!!

@devastate-lasting Oh nice!! I’ve tried doing the chapter outline thing for drafts and maybe once I get to later drafts it’ll work better for me 😂

@godlyfantasy12 Usually I write a beginning, and then I start working on an outline/plot/characters, and usually after I have the outline for all the chapters done, or most of them, enough to keep me busy for a while, I just starting writing each chapter one by one.

@kathleenramm These days I can consume nothing but classic lit. I think when I was younger I found it boring but now I find modern lit lacking in depth and character and theme. Still, I prefer literature from the 1800’s and 1900’s, and maybe occasionally the 1700’s. Anything earlier I find, well, hard to read.

@keilah-h awww so like Phineas and Isabella!! PHINABELLA FOREVA!!! XD

@trahia-the-minstrel

Thank you!!!! They’re doing such an awesome job of it, I might actually try to watch some when it comes out!

And that probably sounded strange. Explanation; being someone blessed with an extremely vivid imagination I find myself disappointed by movie adaptations of books I perhaps only skim read.

But this looks good, so I…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel

AAAAAH THAT LOOKS AWESOMEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have just SO GOT to read this series even more now! Like enough putting it off, I need to get a copy of these books!

@trahia-the-minstrel

Aha! Where do I find it?

OOH OOH!! @trahia-the-minstrel my 2 favs are

Brother relationships UGH I LOVE THEM SO STINKING MUCH or anything that even resembles a brotherly relationship, like just two guys teasing each other 😂 I love the younger older brother thing. (I love guys….I’m a girl what I can say. Boys in books are great 😂)

Also the Best friends lovers thing, but…[Read more]

@lydia-s Any other books you’ve read lately? Or any other classic lit you enjoy?

@lydia-s

I am so sorry, I almost forgot KP (of no fault of it’s own; life is still nuts).

I have read/listened to all but Lady Susan, Love and Friendship, and I think one other one. I read Persuasion, Pride and Prejudice,  Sense and Sense ability, and Mansfield Park. I listened to most of those and Emma, Northanger Abbey, and… I think that’s…[Read more]
