DelightInLife started the topic Style & Voice in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago
Hello!
What does the term having a “voice” as a writer mean? How is that different than style?
(I’m going to tag a few people, but feel free to jump in even if you weren’t tagged.:) )

First, what are your top 3 favorite books and what do you like about them? (Be brief but detailed, and no spoilers 🙂 ) How have they taught, inspired, or grownchallenged you as a writer?

Daeus replied to the topic Prayer Requests in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago
I just heard of a recent tragedy with a family here in Ohio. They’re a Christian family named the Stockdales. I don’t know them, but I’ve met them before. Anyway, one of their sons just killed his youngest brother and mother with a shotgun and then tried to take his own life. He’s in the hospital at the moment.
So, pray for them if you…[Read more]

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Favorites? in the forum Book Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago
Hey people. *tips hat grinningly*
There’s this book I just read called Eats, Shoots and Leaves, by Lynn Truss. It’s non-fiction—about punctuation. But it’s not a long or dull read at all, and is funny and very informative/helpful. Especially for people like writers who’d use punctuation more than usual. 😉
The only objection would be: it has a…[Read more] -

Leumeister replied to the topic Aquila in the forum Sci-Fi 8 years, 10 months ago
Hello everybody tagged below!
I’ve got a bunch of unfinished drafts of stories (plus the finished draft for the Pilot for Aquila) and I was wondering if any of you would like to alpha-read some of them (and, perhaps, beta-read the finished draft). I need input on what I’m working on because I’ve got some stories I’m stuck on.
So, for those of…[Read more]

katie started the topic Book Suggestions in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 10 months ago
Hello!
I need some book suggestions for summer reading. I have quite a few non-fiction books that I am currently reading, but I’m looking for some good fiction (I do like historical fiction or true stories). Here are a few books that I’ve really enjoyed:
– Hand on the Bridle
– A Lost Pearle
– Prisoners of the Sea
– Edwin Brook: Dire Recompense

I’ve tried to like it I swear. @winter-rose I even tried to re-read the books for the benefit of @ethryndal but it was a no go…just not my style.

Anne of Lothlorien started the topic My Attempt in the forum Poetry 8 years, 10 months ago
So, I read some of the poems y’all suggested. (I loved the Wreck of the Hesperus). And I tried one of my own. It’s a bit silly, and I don’t like the ‘magic’ and ‘tragic’ rhyme at all, but for lack of a better one, I left it. Maybe someone can help me change it? But how do you all like it?

Anne of Lothlorien started the topic My Brother Wants Y'all's Opinion in the forum Film 8 years, 10 months ago
Hey there.
So.
My brother is an animator. A movie maker. And this summer he is venturing out on another project, and he has made me his co-collaborator or something like that. So he asked me to ask y’all about it and if you like it and stuff.
So… here’s the basic plot. I’m still a bit fuzzy on it and it may not be one hundred percent accurate,…[Read more] -

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Homework for Video 13: Theme & Antagonist in the forum Writing Assignments 8 years, 10 months ago
@ethryndal How would you say Emolas is connected to your story’s theme? I.e. what does he consider to be the greatest gift?
I think it may be tricky to have Sley’s EiL come out effectively in the story as one doesn’t normally think of justice when they think of the greatest gifts. However, I think that some well-placed lines of dialogue could…[Read more]
