@the-happy-bookaholic— the em dashes are done using three little dashes— 1- 2- 3-. They will look separate when you type them, but when you hit the dangerous ‘submit’ they will fuse and make those lovely little lines.
Also…at least I would have had corrected people.
Did you mean ‘At least I would have corrected people’?

The first story I remember writing was when I was seven. I wrote it with a pink pen in a red notebook…I still have it. 🙂 My parents tell me that I was dictating little stories to them when I was around four or five (my mom taught me to read when I was three), but I don’t have any memories of those.

I like to think of my novel as a masterpiece … if it take me a decade!

I don’t know when I wrote my first creative writing piece, but I remember for this paper that I wrote for a writing class I was taking, I wrote about a talking donkey that appointed the pope to be archbishop of Canterbury. I have no idea what that story was supposed to be about, but I guess it ended up creative. I think I was nine.

We all have that story tucked somewhere away in our memory, even if we destroyed it as soon as we got serious about writing. It’s a sad fact of life. The things you want most to forget stick with you the longest.
Your first story, guys. How did it all start? It’s time to ‘fess up.
I’ll go first, since it’s only fair. My first story was written…[Read more]

You’re right. It is. I just need to remember that. Hm. Easier said than done.

Eh… it’s still a Mess in Progress
Nnoooooo! Don’t say that! I’m sure it can’t be that. I hope it isn’t. Say rather it is a sculpture not yet fully chiseled.

@writefury— yes! Absolutely! The people inside my head are too awesome to ignore. 😀
@Hope— I also write because I have difficulty finding the kind of stuff I want to read. What better solution?
@the-happy-bookaholic— thought you’d like to know, Sarah, that knowing you’re on this forum has more than once made me triple proofread my posts…[Read more]

is there a way that you can link a blog to facebook so when you post on your blog it will appear on facebook too?
I don’t know about that, but I don’t see why you would want to. You should be able to do the reverse though and have your Facebook page linked to your blog.

Don’t know…it’s very inconvenient at times but I can’t help it. 😉 But I’ve too many stories in my head to ignore. And I also want to write inspiring fiction for young Christian adults…books like the ones I looked for and couldn’t find when I was younger.

Hope Ann replied to the topic Social Media in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 11 months ago
I just created a facebook account today for writing. You can see it here. Anyway, I was wondering who on here has facebook. And I had a few questions: 1. Is there a way you can see how many people are following you? 2. And is there a way that you can link a blog to facebook so when you post on your blog it will appear on facebook too?

*Tries to look you in the eyes* Hmm, not working.
I honestly don’t know what happened there. I typed everything out and it looked good. Then I hit submit and it stopped looking good. Beware the submit button!
Yes, it was mean’t to be they’re.

I don’t even care for poetry but I really like this one, Jada! Well done! 🙂 The rhymes are lovely. Maybe that’s what I like. 🙂

Oooh, good question. Let’s see…I write because I want to provide teenagers (and adults) with books that are engaging without all the trash and gore that is so common in books now days. I guess I want to help battle all those nasty books out there with something exciting and engaging minus the garbage.
