@valtmy Interesting.
@rochellaine okay, bye.
@seekjustice Oh… It is… *shrug*

@valtmy

Well, you certainly know how to disturb people.

@rochellaine

Goodnight

@catwing

And yours is just a tad confusing 😛

@seekjustice @valtmy @rochellaine
231. 🙂

My favorite sentence.
“I saw the gongs and got it out of order.”
Poor Cele…

@catwing @valtmy @rochellaine

I just finished my fifteen minutes. I got 415.

My last sentence (hence my interest in colts):

Several foals, all varying shades of brown, three black mares and a yearling colt, who looked big enough to be kicked out of the mob any day now.

@rochellaine Well, I don’t know if you like fantasy, but her historical fantasy Fawkes is really good. 🙂

@catwing @valtmy @seekjustice

Alright, I have to leave now. Enjoy word warring! 🙂

@rochellaine

Well, I’ve just noticed a lot of use of the word colt. Just then I saw “rounding up mustang mares and colts”, etc. So I was wondering if it had a different meaning.

“Some guns are called colts” was also my immediate thought.

All right, I’m putting on my timer again @Catwing

@jenwriter17 I didn’t know that. Maybe I shall enter… *ponders*

@valtmy Heyo! 😀

@catwing @seekjustice @rochellaine Do you all know that Nadine Brandes is having a giveaway for a signed copy of Fawkes and some other Fawkes-related goodies? 🙂 You can find the link to enter through her latest Youtube video.

@jenwriter17 Okay.
@valtmy @rochellaine @seekjustice Are y’all ready to start? 15 minutes?

@rochellaine @seekjustice @catwing

I think I’ll sit out of the wars for the rest of the night. Been pushing myself to crank out the words these past several hours, and I’m feeling not so inspired and motivated now, so I’m gonna leave soon I think. I’ll be on to chat for a bit though. 🙂

@rochellaine another war sounds good. 15 minutes?
I think we’re doing favorites, but saying or last sentences cause they’re funny. XD
This is great. 😀

@seekjustice I think all those terms are a little confusing for some people (including me, tbh 😛 ), and I don’t think all horse books get it right anyway, so maybe that’s why Americans don’t use the terms that often. 🙂

@seekjustice Okay. I double checked and…
They are called a filly or Colt until over three years of age. But at one year they are yearlings, instead of foals apparently.

@jenwriter17

Righto. The things I was reading seemed to indicate it meant more generally a horse that hadn’t reached mature age. Here it very specifically means a horse between 1-4. Younger than 1 is a foal, and a female is a filly. I’ve never really seen any Americans use those terms though, which was why I was a little confused.

@seekjustice I’m an American horse person… And an American cat person… 🙁 ( 😛 )
Foal – Baby horse under one year (I think it’s one year)
Filly – Female foal
Colt – Male foal
But some people are named Colt. 🙂

@catwing I think I like the idea of choosing our favorite sentences better 😉

@seekjustice

We use the word colt for a male horse that hasn’t reached adult age yet.

@jenwriter17 I chose favorite. My last was…
But it was big.
Where is my Newberry Medal? IT will probably be rewritten. XP

@rochellaine @catwing @jenwriter17

And I’m pretty sure I have no interesting sentences, but this one…

This brumby was one of a highly sought after colouring–not quite pure white, but not cream or golden either.

…is a reference to one of my favourite childhood books, The Silver Brumby.

@catwing @rochellaine @seekjustice

oh yeah, my sentence…

I didn’t know if we were doing our favorite sentence or the last sentence we wrote, so i’m just putting here the last sentence I wrote: Vega twisted one of her box braids around her finger. 

I know, gripping isn’t it? 😛

@catwing I like your sentence 🙂
