What I’ve learned through high-school is that…it’s good to have a nice mom. XD Very good.
Oh my word, yes. @emma-flournoy

@ethryndal Very cool. Although… *coughs* I’m going to college for a degree in creative writing, so…there are options.
Lol, on another subject, they’re playing the second lord of the rings movie on TV right now and I just thought of you!@kate-flournoy Kate, sweetheart, I’m pretty sure that’s not how it works…

Okay, good. That’s how I intended it to be.
Thanks for all your help, Kate! @kate-flournoy

What?
I don’t know what to say to that. I have so many questions, so much stuff that I don’t know about the plot yet, but maybe you’re right. I have to figure all that stuff out for myself.
So…no. No questions. Except–did Kara act out of character when she killed the Catastrophe? Was it too sudden? Weird?

*pats your head* lil’gracie!
Oh my goodness. I took the ACT and hated it. There was too much math and science. Too much.
And yeah, don’t worry. You still got time. @graciegirl -

Here’s the thing–Tam was taken out of the prison for hurting a guard. She broke the prison rules and was punished for it. Kara knows that, which is why, later in chapter 4 (which is still in the planning stages) she gets confused when she isn’t punished. Her view on the Warden changes when he seemingly shows mercy to her, but didn’t to Tam.…[Read more]

Well, on a website full of writers, you’re a rare treasure. A regular reader, someone who will judge the story for what it is and report and plot-holes back to us. I think that’s cool, which is why I asked ya.
But I’m happy to take a backseat until you’re free. @emma-flournoy *winks* I’ll wait.

Hm. @ethryndal Mind if I ask why?

Aha. Hello!
*grins* I can almost see your train of thought chugging along as you posted this.
Yes, the guy Kara killed is a Catastrophe–not that she and Ava know that. He’s an Earth Catastrophe, and the way he looks in my head is rather…jarring. He does look more like a monster than a human being, so there’s that.I’ve decided that I’m…[Read more]

@graciegirl Wait a sec, you’re only in 10th grade? *sits down* Um. Okay. I was somehow convinced you were graduating like me and Kate. Oops.
College…isn’t as scary as it seems. Trust me. You’re gonna be fine. Be excited! After all, it’s only the gateway to the rest of your life, right?

Kate…yes. Yes. Yes. Algebra. Gross.
Um…not to be annoying or anything, but could you possibly pop over to the google docs and read chapter 3? @kate-flournoy

Is it just me, or have the forums been quieter as of late?
Anyway, I’ll be on and off writing and planning throughout the day if anyone wants to join me.

Yeah, it’s fine, Emma.
And honestly…I have tried. My family takes my ambitions seriously. They respect the fact that I want to have a career as a writer. They’re supportive that way, but when it comes to everything else…my writing doesn’t get the time of day. It’s frustrating.
Maybe you should start a waiting list for your beta-reading @emm…[Read more]

I’m graduating high school this year, but I also have my first year of college completed thanks to Dual-Enrollment. I’m thrilled to finally be starting college, but a little sad to leave my younger high-school friends behind. I’m going to school at home, though. (Go Bulls!)
Oh, goodness…advice. Honestly, a lot of what I could say, @aratrea…[Read more]

School ending is definitely a reason to celebrate! (I graduated in ’14 and didn’t go to college 😉 ) But I’ll pass around ice cream cake for those who did, because HURRAY you survived and you did it!!! And an extra blob of whip cream (perhaps a cherry on top) for those who still have a few years left. Don’t fret, cause high school goes by faster…[Read more]

@Ethryndal Note to self about blogs: avoid blogging like the long version of a grandmother’s facebook post. :p
Thanks for the two cents! -
