The pocket thing. XD

Leo

The lorry rolled to a squealing stop. It’s doors swooshed open. Time to move.

Leo braced against the back of the seat in front of him as he helped Rory to his feet. Then they shuffled down the aisle with Silvia and Quincy close behind. The steps squeaked under their feet.

Students filled the sidewalk…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

What are your thoughts on catholic reconciliation? (For those who don’t know, reconciliation is where catholics go (supposed to be at least every month) to confess their sins. And then they are forgiven for them.) And what questions do you have. (That definition is the most simple version, there is more to it.)

I don’t think i…[Read more]

I also thought unions burning peoples eyes was a myth until my friend and I were cooking stir fry and she started tearing up really bad while cutting them. 🤣

It’s hard to cook when you anthropomorphize your vegetables.

Announcing the winners!!!!

First, like the previous judges, I will go over each story.

Shadow:

What a short, sweet story! You are sucked right into a conflict,…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Thanks!

wait… your hand cramps from writing? Mine never did that. I thought it was a myth.

I have a bad habit of gripping and pressing on things to far. Since I’ve done so much drawing, and have trained myself to do lighter strokes there, it’s not an issue, but I need to train myself to do it with writing as well.

@ellette-giselle

Hmm… That is a good point about Elsa’s powers. As far as we can tell once she learns to control her powers, she just seems to will things to happen.

I think I do want to stick with the idea for Alan having visions of magic capturing him. I think this adds a thematic element that will make Alan’s struggle more real without…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @theducktator @ellette-giselle

My progress today. I wrote down on sticky notes everything I knew so far about the plot.

Pink notes are what I already had planned from Alan’s perspective when I started this. Green is Martha’s Perspective. The blue and yellow at the top are some alternative ideas I had for the beginning. All the…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Yes, I have seen Frozen, and I think I know what you are getting at. Elsa, like Alan, worries about her powers and hurting others with them but needs to learn not to push others away. If you go back to when you were asking us which characters are like our own, Whaley, you will notice Elsa was one of the characters…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

I had a feeling I needed to hear this. Thank you for the advice, I really do need to listen to it. I’m a bit of a perfectionist so it’s going to be hard to post stuff as it is, but thank you again.

@ellette-giselle

Linus is 💯 correct. Plus, the more you pause the more you lose your flow. For me, I turn off autocorrect and gra…

My brother loses his steam over many inconsequential details.

Me: 🎵 It’s funny how some distance makes everything seem smaaaaaalll 🎵

@ellette-giselle

have you ever seen Frozen?

✨ Let it gooOooOoOOoooOo  ✨ *Throws back my hair dramatically* I sing that song whenever my siblings are unnecessarily argumentative.

@ellette-giselle

Awesome, good to know. I think I do mention very vaguely later that they won the game, but you’re right, I don’t think any reader will make the connection.

So, that was my bad 😅 You’ve read all the chapters I’ve posted. For some reason, my brain didn’t make the connection that you had read them all because I read this:

@ellette-giselle

I can copy and paste the answer @whalekeeper gave, or you can just read her’s. 😉

she said everything I would have said in a much better way than I would have said it.

Then I will respond with my answer!

This is what I love about it! You confess to a priest, and through God’s power he forgives you, but we teach that God will onl…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

IS THAT ALAN ABD MARTHA!!?!? *excited dance* 

Maybe…

I was hoping to have that finished by Valentine’s day, but have fallen behind a bit. Hopefully, by next week it will be done.

@whalekeeper

Love how you always have illustrations on hand, by the way. XD

Thank you! I like illustrations. This story started out as illustrations…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Thanks!

@ellette-giselle

I doubt I’m any help right now.

No worries. I usually write without outlining as well. I’m just trying to speed up my writing and thought I would give outlining a try to see if it would help me out.

@theducktator

My “outlining” consists of writing random notes all over the margins of my paper as I write and forgetting about them.…

And I think I’ll do another for R&L. However, I can’t figure out how to do the accent mark on this computer, so his name will have to be plain. Poor fellow.
