@godlyfantasy12 Sure, sure. Sounds fun! I guess I’ll post the beginning snippet of Those Who Were Given Another Yesterday…
A black cat wrapped its tail around the sign pole, and as it passed by, it disappeared into the shadows.
Luona was on his way home from work today. He was tired, and he had been for a long time, and it showed with those…

@issawriter7 Ahh thank you! I always love your enthusiasm, haha. I usually try to find 2 or 3 quotes and then some pictures to represent them or what they do, and then move them around til they look good, and then add filters over them. It’s pretty fun; usually do it while listening to something.

Here’s one for Friedrich, of the same organization that Nathan is in…I think I’ll do all twelve of them sometime soon. Nice to have a set.

Lin replied to the topic What is giving you the most joy & the biggest headache in your WIP? in the forum Topic of the Week 5 years, 3 months ago
@kathleenramm Headache? For my written one, I guess, my main headache is that I never plotted anything. So it feels like kinda that I’m riding down a hill on an out-of-control bike.
Biggest joy? That I’m actually getting it done. I’m glad to train my writing muscle to handle that much writing every day.

@joy-caroline You with To Kill a Mockingbird reminds me of how @gracie-j is with Gone With the Wind. And personally, I would be like that with East of Eden if I wasn’t so worried about content XD

@ribbonash My favorite part would be the moment when you finish drafting a project! It feels so satisfying, and it’s lovely to take a break before editing!
I really value endings for stories! Endings and prose. I think that the ending can make or break a book for me.
Oh yes! QOTW is honestly one of the best threads! I look forward to it every…[Read more]

@ribbonash I’ve read Six of Crows, A Monster Calls, and Fawkes before.
Brainstorming is really fun! I love it too!
Ah, characters and plot are really important! I agree!

@ribbonash Reading is lit! I don’t blog, but I know several people on here who do!
Those are a lot of books! I’ve read maybe 3 or 4 of them and heard of most. Hope Ann is great! I’ve talked to her sometimes online. And Disney is quite classic. Marvel I have not gotten really into, but a lot of my friends love it.
I love ice cream and cheesecake!…[Read more]

Ahh I finally made an aesthetic for Thirteen Ways to Infinity…it took me very long because there’s so much to cover and I wasn’t sure what elements fully represented it…

@r-m-archer @joy-caroline Okay, um, I think it would probably be best if we stop this at some point…I understand where you’re both coming from. I believe that both the Calvinist and the Armenian views hold truth in them. Each side emphasizes a different viewpoint of the subject, one being God’s control and sovereignty, and the other being…[Read more]

@ribbonash Hello! Welcome to the Kingdom! We’re so glad you’re here!
Oo, your WIP sounds super interesting!
Let’s see, some questions…
1. What other hobbies do you have besides writing?
2. What are some of your favourite books/authors/movies?
3. Any favorite desserts?
4. Pineapple on pizza? Yes or no?

@godlyfantasy12 I always fall behind! Last week I wasn’t in a writing mood at all so I didn’t keep up with my schedule of five pages. So this week I just did the math and now I’m gonna write eight pages a day until the end of January. It’s hard, but I usually make it.

@scripter-of-kingdoms Hello! I write large amounts of fantasy as well…I think I just like the presence of magic in my stories the most…hardest thing for me is to slow down and plot/worldbuild…I usually make stuff up on the fly.
