woah, that turned out longer than I thought it would.

It also sounds like some kind of reddit post.

Feel very free to ignore. I am ranting a lot in this post, it will be long, and it most likely will be boring.

I need help with something not at all related to writing.

My 16th birthday is on July 28th, and I haven’t had…[Read more]

Hey, can you guys pray for Andrew? I don’t want to reveal anything on here without his permission first, but just please pray for him.

Thanks 💜

@whalekeeper

That’s cool!

I want to name him Harvey…which is weird because I usually hate the name Harvey. Maybe your statement about Harvard had influenced me *shrug*

@theducktator

Praying!

I got to eat a beef hot dog today 🎉

lol, yes!

@ellette-giselle

Here’s the last story as it is now. I made a few changes during CEW, but I don’t think I made many

A breeze swept over the countryside, traveling over the hills and through the meadows, before stopping to tangle a young woman’s hair at the command of the man who sat in the grass beside her.

“Baron! Why?” She whined, trying to st…

not chapter, story *facepalm*

@ellette-giselle

If you want, I would be happy to mark that chapter up for you and give a few spots where it felt emotionally lacking to me as the reader.

That’d be great! I already have made some changes to the first part of the chapter, so I’ll head over to The Baron Chronicles topic and repost the chapter.

@ellette-giselle

np

but I honestly really liked that chapter the way it is. Like, a LOT. I don’t want you to touch it. If it’s the chapter I’m thinking of (the end one) it was one of my very favorites.

Yes, the end one. This is very interesting to me, cuz I honestly like the last short story the least. Not because of the story itself (the conce…[Read more]

Would it help if I did a test piece and posted it on here so you can kinda see what it’d look like?

If I do that, I’ll probably do it tomorrow

TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN THE CHALLENGE i ATTEMPTED TODAY

I lost track of my hours, but I did get through most the Baron Chronicles. I didn’t get into the short story…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Like, people go on and on about how he was basically “The Perfect Fiction Writer,” do they realize he was just a guy who was SUPER passionate about his story?

I think his passion is what made him the best fantasy author. If Tolkien didn’t love writing, and didn’t love the story, then it wouldn’t have been a classic. It wouldn’t have bee…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yep, basically burnt out. And easily distracted XD. Three more stories. I dragged my feet in the last one.

@ellette-giselle

Honestly, you were one of the main people I had in mind when I decided to go for it. I LOVED your book and it meant so much. People need to be able to read stuff like it, but honestly it’s so hard to get p…

@ellette-giselle

Wait really!!!!!??? You might be going with us?!?!?!

I looked into like twenty different publishers today, some briefly, some a little more in-depth. The only two I liked were yours and one that I can’t even submit my book too so…yeah, I’m probably gonna go with you. To be honest, you weren’t my first choice (just a bookmarked…[Read more]

Also, Wild Horse Publishing, if all my plans go as planned, will have a new costumer in fall hopefully (If I can earn enough money and figure out how to market a book. 😉 )

UPDATE

I have five stories left to edit. It’s going much faster than I thought since apparently Past Me is better at editing than I thought she was, and besides a few little tweaks, I’m mostly just rereading the stories (which is so much fun! Though it feels almost like cheating. I promise I am actually editing places where I see problems!) I…[Read more]

I don’t think I can finish the challenge. We’ll see.

Well, to my joy, I am finding, so far, a LOT less things to edit than I thought I would…

…Though, I’m pretty sure anyone else who reads my work will be wanted to strangle me for grammar mistakes I missed and poor scene execution. I’m just blind to it.

@whalekeeper

Okay!
