I shall remember the paragraph thing! Funny, just a minute ago, I had someone say almost the same thing after I emailed hr my short story!
Thoughts are in italics on my Word document, just they didn’t stay there, when I copied and pasted.
You have no idea how happy it makes me feel when someone says they want to read the next…[Read more]

Actually, yes. I have been stepped on before six times, by six different horse on the same foot. I work at a stable that has 39 +/- horses, so it’s bound to happen.
It’s not a brand, it’s type of cheese and my personal favorite, try it sometimes It’s really good with celery or rice cakes.
Glad to here you like kp, hope to see you…[Read more]

If I just tagged you and you aren’t interested, feel free to go away.
So…If you’re still around, and haven’t read the first chapter, look up. If you’re still around and you have read the first chapter, look down.

I do know how to tag people, but who would be interested? I do have two friends, but at the time I posted that, they we nonexistent. Should I just tag people I know?
I like your idea of adding Nahim in, it’s probably the only advice I’ve gotten about this chapter that doesn’t ruin my purpose at all.
Actually, funny you should…[Read more]

Hi. I’m RAE. You can call me Ru or Ruee, whichever.
I’m writing a book called Guardian Angels, a space story, and I would like some criticism on it. By the way, when I do ‘dialogue’ It means he’s thinking that, not saying it. Here is the first chapter…

Advice and characters is mostly what I shall be doing. Characters profiles, art, anything. And advice would be the most random things, cuz that’s how my mind works.

Ruth replied to the topic Hi. I'm RAE in the forum Start HERE 2 years, 11 months ago
Last count of characters was 109+/- and that was Jan. 8th. Since then, I created a lot more and haven’t bothered to count them, I should though, sometime. I’ve got way too many characters.
I like to write third person, but when learning about a new character, or just in the mood, I will write little bits of scenes in first. I don’t do well…[Read more]

Okay…
I’m lost. Do I just join some random topic or is that like bursting into a random person’s house? Should I make a new topic and go from there? I guess I’m just nervous.

Dude! This is incredible!
With how immersive the world and writing style is along with how much intrigue and mystery was jam-packed into this excerpt, I’m blown away! Why didn’t you tell me you were this good at writing?!
The first section was actually breathtaking. I could feel each word as if they came alive within my body and…[Read more]

@rae
Why, thank you!!! Do you like Lord of the Rings?
I love your pfp too! Horses are amazinggggg
Do I love lotr? They are my favorite movies and books! Tolkien is my favorite author! I literally did not like books until I read The Hobbit, and I only read that cuz my big brother kept talking about it. Since then, I watched the movies over and over again, plus read the books twice. After I finish school assigned reading, I plan to read them again.
@rae
YUS GIRL!!! *high five*
I’ve only read the books once, but rn I’m working through Lotr a second time. Buuuut, I’ve seen the movies like 8 times. 😂
Do you like books or movies better? And do you like the hobbit or lord of the rings?
I like the books, cuz I appreciate good writing and that was the first book that I cried over only two words, “Aragorn dies” and I’ve never had another book do that to me. I’ve cried over those words twice!
Lord of the Rings, it captures me and Strider was like a game changer for me. i loved his mysterious personality at first.
Awww! 😭 So like the part where it says Aragorn dies of old age?
YES!!! I love Aragorn/Strider!!! Some of my fam thinks he’s weird but he’s my favorite Lotr character, besides Sam ofc.
