Pause. I have to do the dishes, cause I’m home now, and then if we’re on can we move this to the actual google doc in itself? @kate-flournoy

Also… @emma-flournoy Thank you so much for going through Prison the way you are. It’s really helping me!

You’re my brainstorming buddy. You’re always helping. @kate-flournoy
I feel like the logical move is to decide…the logical move for my characters. Kara and Blake head back to their cells, but now Kara knows that Blake has a lot of secrets. Matthias, the instigator, is in solitary and is rather incapable of doing anything at the moment…so…[Read more]

*sigh* Yes. Emotions. Fickle things, hard for me to write. I’ll get better at it eventually.
I don’t have any ideas for chapter 7. None. My brain is empty except for one thing that doesn’t even relate to the seventh chapter and I don’t know if I’ll even use it yet. @kate-flournoy

@winter-rose Whoa, cool! I’m so excited. I get to go to an airport and fly on a plane and honestly that would be nice in itself it I get to go to Canada too! *giggles uncontrollably*
@dragon-snapper Well, I’m singing a few songs in French, a few in English, and one or two in Latin. Don’t be that impressed. I’ve no idea what most of them–except…[Read more]

Seconding what everyone else said. There was some great advice in this thread. Also a number of things I was guilty of, like that proper noun thing. =P Thanks for doing this!

@kate-flournoy @sierra-r @aratrea @that_writer_girl_99 @winter-rose
Hi guys,
I have a rather enormous announcement/request to make.
For a while now, I’ve been wanting to create my own e-course. I’ve had an idea for it too. I wanted to cover the “show don’t tell” rule. Now, to many people, that would seem like a crazy idea for a course, since…[Read more]

@Hope hmm out of your list? I like The Sacrifice, The Steadfast, The Subversion. (With a second choice of The Sacrifice, The Affliction, The Reckoning) Although I do also like that idea of possibly incorporating Light into the titles to reflect back on the series (but somehow at the same time you’ve already got that light factor so individual…[Read more]

@Hope welp I’m here a bit late because you would insist on doing things at midnight in Australia. XD
But I think everyone’s got some great suggestions here already. So yeah. *shrugs* -

Really, really want to do this… I do need to be careful about how much time I realistically have, though. :/ What’s your planned schedule for this and when you’d need feedback by?
Ah, I should have mentioned that. My pace with this is going to be a little bit slow. I’ll try to write about a lesson a week. I only have my outline so far and a knowledge of the points I want to cover for each lesson. So this would be a gradual thing. I think honestly it might take me six months to get nailed down, though I might get ambitious…[Read more]
Got ya. I could give you feedback along the lines of #1 and #2 up through September 1st. After that, I may be able to give some sporadic feedback, but that will be completely dictated by my school schedule.
Okay, thanks. 😀 We’ll run with it.
Yes, yes, and yes again. When do I start?
I’m in. Absolutely. When do I start?
Haha. 😀 Great! Well, right now, if you want. This isn’t letting me post my original message, so I’ll try one piece at a time.
And here’s access to the course file. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzI8MlrraNgHekR6TWtEa2RTYW8?usp=sharing
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1W87kcWtV1azNc5zA34D9jQ3yNl-wbnGDgYOnxAhrs5k/edit
I’ll try to do some lesson outlines this week. Maybe even today.
@kate-flournoy
WOW. You’ve got a lot of categories. 😛 I love it.
Me too! This is awesome.
Ah, time is a tricky thing. Well, I’ll leave it up to you. Does it make sense for you to do this if you’ll only be able to cover the first (and admittedly simplest) part? If so, I’d be glad to have you. If you’re not so sure though, you could potentially be a beta viewer when this part’s done. Or you just ignore this course and have a good life. 😛
@kate-flournoy @that_writer_girl_99 @aratrea Part 1 has outlines for all the lessons if you’d like to go check them out. 🙂 I’m hoping to write out lesson one today.
@sierra-r Have you seen this yet?
Awesome! I’ll look them over today, probably later tonight. @daeus
@Daeus which one is part one…
Part 1 – emotion telling. Right at the top of my outline. There are four lessons listed under it.
Aha, thanks. Found it. 😉
Which lessons make up Part 1? Is there a doc somewhere that categorizes/lists all these lessons?
Here’s the outline https://docs.google.com/document/d/1W87kcWtV1azNc5zA34D9jQ3yNl-wbnGDgYOnxAhrs5k/edit
In parentheses at the top it says (part 1 – emotion telling) The four lessons under that are the ones that have outlines.
