I totally get where you’re coming from. I, too, am a fiercely independent person, and furthermore, when it comes to writing, I thought I knew everything there was to know.
Until I met my mentor.
My mentor’s name is Shellie Arnold, and she’s a published author who goes to our church. Through conversing with her and showing her short…[Read more]

@Emily-D my brain… 😛
*coughs* What, that’s not what you meant? *grins* In all honesty, I think I must’ve short-changed myself when it comes to tools besides my imagination because now that you asked (and ruled out KP) I can’t think of a single one I depend on regularly. Besides ones I’ve invented and they’re more like theories than tools. So……[Read more]

@emily-d “The Emotion Thesaurus” by Angela Ackerman and Becca Puglisi (sp?). Really excellent book that gives you all the shortcuts you need to portray emotions effectively through body language and dialogue.

@emily-d

On the same line, if you have a mac, right-clicking on a word and then selecting “look up ‘word'” will bring up a dictionary, thesaurus, and short Wikipedia description of that word. It’s super helpful. If you have a laptop, it’s even easier. Simply hover the mouse over a word and then tap the trackpad with three fingers.

I love macs. 😀

Hey @eleganceismyarrow!

Just so you know, if you can tag me when posting (@aratrea), that will make sure I catch the post. 95% of the time I’ll get notifications w/o it in this forum, but that just makes sure I get the 5% as well. 🙂

Anyways, onto your homework: this is a pretty good starting point for your theme. The Focusing Question is a good…[Read more]

@Daeus yeah, I don’t think length is too big of a deal.

@epicaddie2 @salome01w4g Signing off. Only wrote 374, but, you know. Slow and steady is better than nothing and steady.

@kate-flournoy Possibly. I mean, certainly, but I don’t know if the other options will sound good. “The unready time traveler” doesn’t strike me as very good. 😉

Anyway, I don’t think length is a very big problem. I’ll think through alternatives though.

What do the rest of you think of this title? @hope @emma-flournoy @winter-rose @graciegirl @d…[Read more]

@Daeus ooooooohhhhhh… ooh wow. Mm. Yes. I like. The only problem I have with that one is it does seem a little long. Any way around that, do you think?

@eipcaddie2 @daughteroftheking Er, actually, I have to do something for about five minutes first

@epicaddie2 @daughteroftheking I’m back. And now I’m aiming to write till 9.

@epicaddie2 @daughteroftheking And yet again I have to go. 🙁 I shall return though!

@epicaddie2 @daughteroftheking Okay! I’m back. I shall now be writing till 8:30.

@kate-flournoy The Time Traveler Who Wasn’t Ready actually ties in with the almost last line.

“Art ready, sir?”
“Do I need to be?”

Time is a Harsh Master/Taskmaster sounds too much like a nonfiction self-help book. 😛

See, INFPs may not be natural leaders… but we wield the power of veto like a boss. *echoing evil laughter*

@eppicaddie2 @daughteroftheking Ooops! I have to go. I’ll be back though.

@Daeus I like both Time Turns Again (*small feelz attack* IT TIES WITH THE LAST LINE YOU SEE) and The Time Traveler Who Wasn’t Ready. The others… not so much. They just don’t fit the action feel of the story. Philosophy is all well and good (obviously, knowing me 😛 ) but the primary focus of this story, I’d say, is on the action/adventure. The…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 @daughteroftheking I’m writing till 8.
