freedom

Do whatever you want with this, please

Lucille

Lucy held Mel’s head free of the thorns by her collar. She managed to pull Mel’s hair out of the thorns without hurting her, then pulled with all of her might.

Mel tore loose. The two of them fell, rolling down a slope in the path. Thick, cascading flowers shifted in their wake, the pat…[Read more]

I made a post asking what the Sanctuary and Outer Court is exactly. I’ll let you know when I get a response.

@theducktator

I’m sorry, I thought you had joined JWM, I must me mixing you up with someone, idk.

…I don’t think this is specific enough. Where is the line drawn between fantasy magic with wizards, and witchcraft? What about evil magic that is specifically called evil?

Not to mention that there is witchcraft in books like Narnia and in Tol…[Read more]

It’s all been pretty normal, plus some stuff that KP doesn’t have like live sprints with Admins. Another reason why I was like “why not?”.

@whalekeeper

Oof, I wasn’t aware of that. I joined JWM because people were saying it was like CWW and maybe better (in my opinion not better, even putting those concerns behind, it wasn’t as organized as CWW, but organization kinda comes with age) and then decided to just join SSC to have another writing community because why not?

I’m also…[Read more]

@whalekeeper That would be lovely. Please go ahead.

@theducktator

That’s weird. It almost sounds like they want your writing to be an idol.

😂 I’d chalk it up to them wanting to create a God-fearing atmosphere on an online forum. Imo it overshoots the mark, but that’s just my opinion. They have good intentions.

We on KP once had a heated debate about what color the number 7 is. It was civil, but e…

@loopylin

I feel like I have done something similar to this before.

Not surprised

not sure where we’re going with this

Me neither. Do you mind if I make up some crazy fairy shenanigans?

@whalekeeper

I’ve noticed they call parts of the community the “Sanctuary” and the “Outer Court”

That’s weird. It almost sounds like they want your writing to be an idol.

@rae

I’ve never heard of them, but what kind of statement of faith is that? If you don’t want to write a whole thing, just state you’re aligned with the creeds and that should cover it.

The lie thing doesn’t bother me so much since they’ve corrected it. I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt and assuming that they really expected 1000+…[Read more]

@rae
I’m not part of SSC so I can’t comment on this very much. I’ve looked at the website and there isn’t a whole lot of information – I can’t access their statement of faith or the community guidelines. It seems like you have to be in it to really know about it.
I will say that I don’t support people who heavily use AI, and I do prefer…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Congrats on the job!

It’s okay, we’ll figure something out! Thank you for the help and the ideas!

@linus-smallprint aww that’s a shame, but hey at least we tried!

Mel

“Oh. Yeah, they do.” Impulsively, Mel leaned forward to smell one of the larger roses. As she got close, its petals suddenly closed and it pulled back, disappearing in the leaves. Mel yelped in surprise and fell back. Thorns snagged her clothes and hair from behind and she struggled for a…[Read more]

It reminded her of a time she found dried chocolate on her mother’s doilies and licked it off. It turned out to be candle wax.

I feel like I have done something m similar to this before.

Thanks for the ideas guys! I like it when I ask a question and people are inspired enough to ramble. (Min, your extended ramble about that weapons collector is so specific and energetic that I should probably include it somewhere.) XD

I do not plan to return her right away, so Gabriel’s gonna have to cope. If he knows how. It’ll probably involve killing things.

@whalekeeper HAHA
