Oh and @Mark-Kamibaya, are the Phillipines under the American government?

@Sarah-H Hm…intriguing…

@Mark-Kamibaya I might address several of your points, but I think Rolena’s right. I at least would rather not go into all of those on here, though if someone else takes you up I’ll be watching the conversation. 😉
For this one though I heard that Priebus is a Christian. Anyone have a take on that? —I also heard that…[Read more]

But kids tend to do many things for very bad reasons. Like they want attention or they covet or they hate too much or love obsessively (don’t you love run on sentences?).

@Mark-Kamibaya Older people do that sometimes too, though. Messed up ones. 😛

@Sarah-H That’s just fine. 😀
Yup, we’ll be able to see for ourselves in awhile…that’ll be far more enlightening than anyone’s statements.

Our favorite candidate was hugely Ted Cruz. I hope he’ll do better in 2020. 😉

@WarrioroftheRealm I make up tunes for poems and songs sometimes, but I don’t have much experience writing the lyrics myself. I’m sorry I can’t help you… 😛

@warrioroftherealm
Sing it to yourself, or someone else. Just like writing, you should read it out loud. Switch words around so they fit the meter you’re singing.

@Rolena-Hatfield Yay!

@Sarah-H Oh dear, I didn’t know it was against the forum rules to debate politics. *hides face*

That’s all right though. I didn’t exactly want to argue about it, I just felt like saying something… *little shrug*

I hope you’ve thawed out from your camping trip. 😉

@Dragon-Snapper Fun fun. 😀

@anne-of-lothlorien @writefury @sleepwalkingMK @his-instrument @ethryndal Oh, first person. For some reason, my writing really only seems successful when I write in that person. Third person is another thing altogether. I find it insanely difficult. I can’t believe I’m asking this but, any tips???

@the-bean I know exactly what you mean.

You know you’re a writer when cutting an onion turns into a tearful drama.

@the-bean I know exactly what you mean.

You know you’re a writer when cutting an onion turns into an epic drama.

@emma-flournoy Yep, I learned it from the map, and spent lots of time studying and practicing it. I have the alphabet memorized now.

@bluejay @kate-flournoy @daeus @jess @winter-rose @overcomer Anybody writing tonight?

@Dragon-Snapper Oh, okay. Is there a key of some sort in the back of your copy, or are you learning it from the map?

@Ethryndal Yep, the books are better for the most part. I think there was a little less bad language in the movie though, for which I was happy. 😛

@hope AAAAHHHHH!!!! I can’t wait till I get a sword! *my preciouss*

@emma-flournoy Actually, I used the Hobbit. The Return of the King version is a more modern version of dwarvish. The Hobbit is the older tongue.
@ethryndal Only the runes. I don’t know how to pronounce anything… but maybe I should learn.

@Anne-of-Lothlorien Something I’ve noticed in books with little kids (and I can currently pull zero examples from my memory. 🙁 I know I’ve seen it somewhere.) is that they seem to be too stereotypically good. That might sound ridiculous, but what I mean is, they seem too wise, and too un-foolish, and too sweet and helpful. I know children are…[Read more]

@Anne-of-Lothlorien If I were reading it as a poem, I think cadence of several lines would need tweaking. But since you said not to read it as a poem, since it’s got a tune and so will fit differently (did you compose the tune yourself?), I like it. 🙂 Since I don’t know the tune, I can’t say whether any of those lines’ cadence ought to be changed…[Read more]

@Anne-of-Lothlorien Lessee… *goes back to find topic in my posting history*
