I like to pretend I can sometimes. xD I’m sure you’d put me to shame. 😉 What about “Speaking in Staccatos”? Or do just Staccato? Or do you have any ideas involving staccatos? xD I’m kinda thinking along the lines of ____ Staccatos, so maybe an adjective or a verb. Or something. xD Clearly I’m horrible at decision making.

Yes! That helps a lot! This reads like a ballad that a bard would sing in a tavern. 😀 I love it!

@kate-flournoy Very punny. ;D But yeah. Darn. I agree. *continues to think*

@bluejay Ooooo. I like Sticky Notes. 😀 What if I called it “Staccato” and then had the metaphorical explanation of writing notes that stand out/are different? Or something with staccato? Or is it reaching again? xD

@kate-flournoy LOL!

What about “Say Something Noteworthy”?

@daeus “Hey, ya know KPrs looks a lot like keepers. Maybe we could be the KPrs of the realm of the pen. Sounds like an order of warrior monks. We could all wear hoodies and swords and walk around saying “grace, peace, and high word counts to you my brother”.” All I’m gonna say is this is beautiful and it should be a thing. xD

Also just want to…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy LOL! Yeah, I kinda figured as much.

Ooooooooo. I really like “Noteworthy Musings.” Definitely getting closer. 😀 It has a pun. I am a huge proponent of puns. xD

@kate-flournoy Great minds post at the same time? xD It still rhymes. 😀

Probably! Give it a go and then read it out loud. If it flows out loud, usually it flows in the brain. Your family may judge you a little, but it works. xD

First off, kudos for writing such a long poem! I am a huge fan of long poems. It’s also an accomplishment.

Thoughts: The lines are kind of long, so it’s hard for me to get everything out of each line. I’d also say try and break it up a little more stanza wise. I think the biggest thing you have to conquer in long poems is making them seem less…[Read more]

@zoe-wingfeather Awwww! Thanks, girl! I’ll post it here as soon as I make it. 😀

@writefury 😀 Gotta stick them poetic musings somewhere. ;D I like the alliteration with that one.

What about “Writing My Themesong” or something and I could make a connection to the “notes” on a piece of music, ‘cuz I like music too. xD Or is that too much of a reach?

@daeus You are da bomb! All of these sound pretty awesome, to be honest. 🙂 I really like “Magic Box of Notecards” 😀 I shall continue thinking too.

I agree with Kate! 🙂 Sometimes fewer topics is better; you can make more as you get more participation, but since you’re going for bolstering numbers, the broader the topic the more likely someone will have something to say relating to it. 🙂

If there’s anything else I can do to help, just let me know!

@sarah-h, Probably the best way to do that without paying for Google promoting and whatnot is to fill up the art forum. 🙂 We can also share the word on social media. Currently, we don’t have any cool graphics, but since you brought it up, if you want to try your hand at one, I can at least publish it on Facebook. ;D No pressure–just an idea!

I think I can put all of this debate to rest and say yes, you are allowed to post your writings here before submitting them for publication on the main site. In fact, this is encouraged! Write your story or poem or what have you, get some feedback, fix it up, and then email it to us!

Posting your works-in-progress on the forum is not considered…[Read more]

I second Daeus. Or make the illustration of the murder more like the one from Disney Robin Hood with Clucky and the rabbits and Maid Marian. 🙂 An “Ohhhhh, ya got meh” kinda thing.
