Haha, I love this. Clever.
I’m…not a graphic design person, but it looks like you’ve got a solid start.

There wouldn’t be the watermark on the final design, of course. 😉

Hi KeePers,
I’m trying to design a main slide for a course, but I’m not exactly a graphics designer, so I could use some advice. I know it’s okay, but I think it can be better.
Thoughts?

@Northerner Righto.

Ugh, I’m so sorry @northerner, but I just don’t have time. I’m constantly fighting with my college classes for any writing time as it is. I wish I could help–and truthfully, I really want to–but I gotta be smart. I don’t have time.
Good luck, though.

@Shannon, little sisters have a way of reading over people’s shoulders anyway. . . ask me how I know.
@Aislinn-mollisong thank you!
@Ethryndal, much appreciated!

Hey, @Northerner, I’m not doing either NaNo or Rooglewood. I can beta-read for you.

Northerner replied to the topic Anyone interested in beta-reading a novella? in the forum Short Story Critiques 8 years, 10 months ago
@Shannon, hopefully you won’t be my only beta, so don’t worry too much :). And practice is a good way to get better at these things.

@Emma-Flournoy So I just went and looked him up, and… just…

I’m feeling a rare burst of inspiration right now.

Alyona inherited her black hair, pale skin, and red lips from her mother, who died giving birth to her. Her father remarried to give his daughter a mother, but when he dies, her stepmother, Akilina, indentures her to her (Akilina’s) brother, who keeps a curiosity shop. Alyona has only her mother’s portrait, painted by her father, lef…[Read more]

I know this is probably a bad time, with most of you either doing NaNo or working on your own Rooglewood entries, but I’m finally ready to ask for beta-readers for my novella, and I thought I’d ask here just in case somebody happened to be free.
The Colour of Life is about 12,000 words, and fits (somewhat loosely) in the historical fantasy genre,…[Read more]

Hi, I’m currently working on a mini-course on the topic of show don’t tell. I have four lessons with homework for each lesson and it’s all complete and ready to go. Before I release it though, I was hoping to get a last set of eyeballs on it. I just want to make sure everything flows smoothly and is easy to…[Read more]

Also, I do not
agree with your idea
for rhyming haikus.
It ain’t the point. 😛

Leumeister replied to the topic Haikus in the forum Poetry 8 years, 10 months ago
Good grief @catwing.
You’re on a roll. And I see
your point on spaces
It seems that double
spacing is now the default
setting for all posts.

@silverclaw-bonnetfolly
Don’t worry! My advice is a bit different… I just look over what I have planned when I am stuck, and move onto a different scene. Or have a word war. Both speed up the process. But make sure you are having fun writing it! - Load More

This sounds cool! I would love to do that! 👍🏻
Awesome!
Tell you what. Just contact me here (http://www.thescratchingquill.com/contact/) and then I’ll go ahead and give you access to the docs.
Whoops! I think I sent it twice. Sorry.
Great. I’ll go ahead and send you the links.
Would it be possible for me to send comments about the lessons in an email? Or would it be simpler for me to just get the Google Docs app?
An email is fine by me, though google docs is a seriously sweet tool so you should sign up for it anyway. 😛
