@Christi-Eaton …I’m pretty sure. But thanks. 😀

@Daeus The villain even mentioning a kettle for any reason is too perfect.

Whew I took awhile writing that post…you’d not posted again when I started. Sorry ’bout that. 😛

@Winter-Rose I agree with the others about the awesome characterization and all, though I do have something to say that’s maybe weird…no offense meant in the least of course and I know you know that so good. XD
Um…I don’t really see the point/purpose of the story…I mean, it’s not giving us anything good to strive for or promoting any…[Read more]

@daeus Love it! That prompt about the villain just makes me laugh. Ah, if only… 😛

I can’t see the picture properly because the monitor on this laptop is doing funky things to the screen, but I can see enough to agree with the others. It does look well done though, and *shudder* I’m purty sure I couldn’t do something like that!

@Rachelle Fourteen book series! 😮
Nah… Les Mis probably isn’t that long. It might seem longer ’cause it’s all in one chunk; but it’s only got 1460 pages. 😛

@Ethryndal Ahem, read above line and be grateful. XD The Silmarillion’s only what, in the 300s at most?

I know though, the preface—his letter to his publisher Milton Someone-Or-Other I…[Read more]

@winter-rose
First off, may I just say that I found this story very amusing!
For one, I agree with @ingridrd that the scene with his mom should be moved to another place. Perhaps after Sam’s tale and he comes home, the mom says “Start from the beginning”, and that would be the ending.

@r-j-wordsmith Really? Wow, I didn’t know that! I wonder if he was thinking like Lewis when he came up with the idea of a time-travel book to be like Narnia (of course, Tolkien never intended it to be allegorical) I like the Hobbit better too, but that’s probably because it is my favorite book. 😛

@Kate-Flournoy Yeah, rather unnerving, I’m sure. 😛

Potato in hand, she was about to cut it when its eyes blinked.

@r-j-wordsmith *shudders* I’d melt if my book was hidden beneath others.
@kate-flournoy Indeed. I’ve been trying for months to regain what I had been able to do before, write what I love, but I’ve been so caught up in trying to make it world-worthy that I’ve forgotten what I’m actually doing. I read through my old work, and in comparing it to…[Read more]

@Rachelle Ah, and you know Pride and Predjudice too, I see. 😉 (I think that’s the reference at least…)
I do piano too, and violin.

What, 2 movies and the Broadway musical?! You’re further along in that department than I am (yet. That must change.). Yes, it’s a very big book, but so worth it.

@Ethryndal You need support, eh? Poor thing. Is it…[Read more]

@rachelle Welcome to the land of the pen! Others may have beat me to it, but I never mind that to much. Ahem, welcome to the Bestistest place on the internets! 😛
Three novels! Woof…I’ve only written one, though I have written a half of another and enough one-page beginnings to make five chapters of beginnings. 😀
Again, welcome!

Yep, what @Ethryndal said, even though I didn’t know what it meant. @R-J-Wordsmith

@R-J-Wordsmith Ooh, I like that. It’s nicely short, but you still made it interesting and fit the story in.

*sniff*

I’m not sure I caught the meaning of the ‘condemned’ sign though; she died, but I don’t know any better than the mailbox what the sign means. 😛
Also I noticed a few missed words and letters, and punctuation errors—several…[Read more]

Hello and welcome @Rachelle! Do you play any instrument? Have you read Les Miserables?

that if my work can impact just one life for Christ, I’ll have succeeded.

@R-J-Wordsmith Yes.

@R-J-Wordsmith It’s good. 😉
