I’ll be writing a story my sister asked me to write for her until my brother gives me a turn on the Xbox, and who knows when that will be… @dragon-snapper @daeus @kate-flournoy @emma-flournoy @aysia-serene @winter-rose

@That_Writer_Girl_99 🙂
Those are some of my favorite verses for when I’m feeling alone and useless.

@Ethryndal Where would we be without moms?
(Yes, nowhere.)

Well I like being kindred spirits. 🙂

Got it. @kate-flournoy

*grins* okay, continue.

Oh yes. It’s the question you asked yourself about intelligence vs. ignorance to narrow down the field— in essence, is intelligence better than ignorance? And if so, why?
We had several answers, only one of them correct. Giving all the characters different and conflicting EiLs on this subject and showing how they all turn out is how you make the…[Read more]

Cool, thanks guys! I’m not good at drawing faces, but I think I’ll try… @dragon-snapper @ethryndal

@that_writer_girl_99 Another thing is to always study. Everywhere you go, everyone you see. Just study it. What shape is that person’s eyes? How far away from the nose is the mouth? Most sidewalks are cracked. A lot of trees have oddly shaped branches. How tall compared to a human is a park bench? People’s elbows are places right where their waist…[Read more]

@Emma-Flournoy Aw, thanks. I’ve finally learned to go talk to my mom when I’m feeling depressed, because just having her know what I’m going through takes some of the weight off of my shoulders.

I think we’re kindred spirits. Telepathic. 🙂

@alia

I’m going to try Coalheart, but how do I put it on here?

I shall tag @kate-flournoy for you. *tags Kate*

How to start drawing? Well, in answer to your question, the best way to start drawing it to draw. Yes, very simple, but it’s true. You learn by doing it, just like writing. However, I’ll give a bit more pointers than just that. 😛
First, I find it imperative to find the basic shapes from which I’m drawing. Always lightly…[Read more]

@aysia-serene Oh boy! Cookies! *munches on them happily*

@emma-flournoy Thank you, thank you, thank you for the kind, encouraging verses. And thanks to everyone who is here for moral support.

You gave me a lot to think about here, Kate–thanks.

Er, lapse of memory–what was my Focusing Question? @kate-flournoy

I’ll be writing for maybe twenty minutes, possibly more. Either way, I’m here.

@Ethryndal

Depression (from writing AND life) is something I’ve struggled with myself, but I’ve always felt like I needed to keep it hidden and be happy all the time, or people might think less of me.

😮 How do you read my mind so much.
I always want to try to be happy, and not let anyone else be bothered by it, but sometimes it just isn’t pos…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper I second everything @Kate-Flournoy and @That_writer_girl_99 said. When things don’t seem to be working (this goes for everything, not just POV), it sometimes helps to experiment and come at it from a different angle.

Hey, I just want to pop in here and say, it’s so encouraging seeing you all be open about your struggles. Depression (from writing AND life) is something I’ve struggled with myself, but I’ve always felt like I needed to keep it hidden and be happy all the time, or people might think less of me. It’s nice to know I’m not alone there, and that…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper Hey, we have MuseScore. I’ve had…many problems with it, but much of it is awesome. XD I don’t use it much anymore, but I used to use it for writing down soundtrack sheet music that I couldn’t find online. I listened to videos or tracks of the music and figured out what the notes were and all, and wrote it down in MS. Now I still…[Read more]

All right Elizabeth.

After the Inciting Incident we have our First Plot Point. What happens here is basically that Kara commits to follow through with what the Inciting Incident set in motion, instead of lapsing back into her former apathy.
She decides that change is in order and sets out to figure out what exactly she needs to do.
What will…[Read more]
