Hi @jess! Nice to see you again. 😉

I don’t have too much to say about this, but I will lend you one thought: life isn’t always happy. What I mean by that is, we might like to think that happy endings lie around every corner, but that isn’t always true. Sometimes it’s the exact opposite.

What does this mean for you? It might mean that you need…[Read more]

@Jess lovely topic. I have a lot of thoughts on unhappy endings, but I haven’t got time to consolidate them all now, so I’ll just leave you with the biggest two.

The first is the concept of catharsis. The reader must be satisfied in some way or other. The reader must feel that something was gained; that the world is somehow better as they leave…[Read more]

You never cease to amaze me, dear. Nice work! This is hilarious.

@allison-grace What a neat idea!
Here are two quotes I love…

@daeus Hmm… I might be able to do it (I find I often underestimate how quick I can do these things). I’d just like to ask about content, if there’s possibly anything some people might not be comfortable with?

@daeus 8,900 words? Do you have a deadline?

@catwing So it looks like @jess-penrose and I are swapping. 🙂

@daugtheroftheking bye!

yay! Writer’s corner #10!!! *looks around and realises that she’s talking to no one* hey, @Clairec @jane-maree @perfectfifths @anyone-else I’m outlining if anyone wants to join 😀

@catwing okay, so that’s pretty short *breathes out in relief* like @perfectfifths said, I have holidays for half of dec and all of Jan and I’m hoping to get my editing done then, and I should have plenty of time for your novel. I’m currently beta reading another novel, which i’m already past the deadline for, so I don’t think I will have enough…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollinsong, yeah, it kind of just disappeared, didn’t it? Sorry about that!
@catwing thanks 😀
@that_writer_girl_99 I’d still love for you to read it! I was just saying that I won’t be sending it out until December/January, because I needed to fix more things than I thought I did.

@that_writer_girl_99 Good night.

Yeah. also wrappers, pocket knives, ruined gum, and a bouncy ball. (List is not final!)
@that_writer_girl_99 Did I mention that the prison is underwater? And the escapers can’t breathe water? 😛 *laughs* How am I getting them out?! I don’t know! *laughs even more*

Goodness, that sounds interesting. 😉 @catwing

Ohhh… @that_writer_girl_99 Though mine is more never grow up story. 😛 They must escape an from a prison with a magnifying glass and a bag of paper clips. Oh, yeah. And blankets and a bag. Have fun my characters!

Yes! It’s the one you and I were talking about, with our kingdom names. Mine takes place in the land of Allora. @catwing

It’s a coming of age story, about a young princess who has to find her place in the kingdom’s two realms.
