Jessi Rae replied to the topic Weird Things People Tell Me 'Cause I'm a Writer in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
I wish I had more people tell me weird things ’cause I’m a writer! ‘Cause then I’d write those things into stories about a writer. XD
Maybe the weirdest thing, though, was when I was talking with my former best friend about his character killing one of my characters in a roleplay we were doing, and someone sitting beside him thought he was…[Read more]

@daeus 😀 That is a great article. The biggest difficulty with it, I have to agree with @that_writer_girl_99, is that it contains ‘writerly terms’ that the average reader wouldn’t understand. However, I don’t think that’s necessarily a problem; if you’re submitting it to a writing blog, there’s probably already an audience built up there used to w…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 yup. That’s exactly what happens. It’s pretty funny. Or we talk in whispers.
@seekjustice Yeah, I don’t like reading any of my stuff aloud, but I could totally imagine that happening. Yes, siblings are pretty good with that. 🙂

Person: How was drawing today?
Me: Good. Ike actually let me draw him today. I had so many conversations with him, trying to convince him to let me draw him–because he never does–and finally, I got ONE picture of him. Out of the twenty I’ve done. That boy…
Person: The men in white coats will be here shortly.
This actually happened,…[Read more]

I sometimes read my books aloud to my siblings, but whenever my mum or dad walks in, I stop and awkwardly try to make conversation about something totally random until they go away. I don’t mind my mum reading my stuff, I just hate it when she hears me reading it aloud. Whereas all my small brothers and sister think I can do no wrong in the r…

@supermonkey42, @valtmy,…three INTJs????? is that even legal? I guess I should be thankful my sister is hardly ever on. I should also be thankful for the pause on the plans to overthrow @daeus, though in his kingdom I don’t have a powerful position…so, if y’all ever change your minds, I offer my services as long as I get some power.
Valtmy,…[Read more]

Alia replied to the topic PRAYER REQUESTS #2 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
3 things
first, it is a blessing to read all the encouragement on here
second, even if I don’t say that I’ll pray, I have it set up so that I always see the requests.
third, and my prayer request
I mentioned it a while ago, but it’s still going on. My uncle hasn’t seen his kids in over two years. His ex wife is allowed to keep them so long as…[Read more]

Simply wonderful, @gh24682468999! As a former MK, this all makes total sense, and is precisely what I went through. Learning to accept and move forward, to see the bright side, to trust that God really does do all things for the good of those that love Him, is extremely difficult, but not impossible. With God, ALL things are possible. You covered…[Read more]

Elizabeth replied to the topic Want to read about theme in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
That makes zero sense, but okay. *snorts*
The article looks good, my overall complaint is that you throw a lot of terms around. Kate and I both made comments on this. My fear is that anyone coming at this not knowing how to create a theme like you explain will get caught up in the terms they don’t know, so elaborating on those definitions might…[Read more]

I have an awkward conversation whenever someone asks me “so, what’s your book about?” I’m like….uhh. I used to start out by saying “it’s fantasy”. Until my mom said that for her generation it meant a totally different (not so great) thing. O_O Whoops. So now I can say it’s fiction. *laughs* I guess I’m getting a *little* better at saying what…[Read more]
