@theacornman Cool–that should actually work for this project.

@theacornman How many words do you have in your WIP? We should be able to make the UK time zone thing work.

@lady-iliara Sweet–no problem!

@lady-iliara Are you still open to working on some of your completed projects, or are they done and past? If the former, between that and the two chapters of your current work, we could probably make that work for this project.

@dragon-snapper Unfortunately, for this is does need to be live.

@aislinn-mollisong Yep–that would be fine. 🙂

@jbb Welcome to the site! 🙂 Glad you found your way onto the forum. Out of curiosity, where did you first hear about us?

(As a clarification, current forum members can stay on till they’re 30; we won’t accept new members when they’re over 25, but we’ll grandfather current members into the forum until they hit 30, at which point we’ll figure an alumni board out or something). 🙂

I’ve never heard of a 2nd person narrative actually working. Everyone I’ve read on the subject say it’s only a gimmick and doesn’t end up doing well w/the exception of the narrow choose-your-own-adventure sub-genre. Since it’s only a short story, if you want to experiment, then by all means go for it! But I also wouldn’t personally recommend it. 😛

@supermonkey42 Chirrut was awesome. I wasn’t a huge fan personally of Rogue One, but Chirrut was easily my favorite character. That scene where he chanted his Force anthem like a creed while being shot at was so awesome.

@supermonkey42 Welcome to the site, Ben! Yay for Star Wars fans; I am really looking forward to The Last Jedi coming out. Favorite Star Wars character?

Um; what happened to this thread? O.o I have never seen a thread show up like this before.

@sleepwalkingmk Yeah–it’s funny how that works. I wonder at times if it’s God’s way of showing us that we /aren’t/ self-sufficient. Even to change who we are and pursue greater sanctification, we need His work in external circumstances to be shaping us into the people he’s called us to be. That’s a great example of how God’s done so in your own life!

@sleepwalkingmk Hey! Glad to see you’re able to work through this again. 🙂 That character arc looks good. I don’t normally recommend going for three at once, but those form a pretty natural progression there that should work decently well. I’ll look forward to seeing how you expand that in the next homework exercise.

@dekreel Heh; yeah, he’s been told, but reminders are always good. xD

Late to the party, but welcome to the forum @dekreel!

@bethanysinkyroses You get all the kudos for having the foresight to think about this! I may just have to slip you thirty wooden coins for that… Just don’t tell our resident overlord. *looks around quickly to make sure he isn’t watching*

We’re going to be doing our major marketing push for this the week before NaNo once we update the eBook for…[Read more]

@emily-d I actually got the privilege to be one of the beta testers of Weiland’s outlining program, and I really liked it. Helped me a good bit in working to outline one of my own books.

Welcome to the site @radically-surrendered! Glad you were able to pull yourself enough away from social media to join us. 😉 Have you written any longer works in the past, or will this pirate story be your first?
