@Leon-Fleming lol ok, so I see it as cheating to simply make up words to rhyme with the one you are using. Find a real word or change the word you are rhyming with. At the same time, the very things I think he was a cheat for I also see as quite brilliant. If you can’t find a word, make one! Confusing, I know.

I can certainly see why you…[Read more]

@Leon-Fleming well calculus was created during a pandemic so…

Ah, because the literary snob in me says that prose is cheating in the same way that Dr. Seuse was equally cheating and a genius by making up words to rhyme with. In my mind, if it is labeled poetry it should rhyme and you should have had to suffer a bit to create it. 😜 Just kidding…[Read more]

@Leon-Fleming hehe who is overly fond of math? XD

I see what you are saying. I am afraid I have never read any of Tolkien’s works but I think I get the idea.

Its an interesting concept. I have a bit of a prejudice against prose (ok, ok a big prejudice, blame the snob in me) but it would be interesting to see both mixed together. Perhaps sometime…[Read more]

@Leon-Fleming wow that sounds really involved. It seems like you got all the math worked out for it. I have never heard of somebody writing a novel in poetry. I am curious, is this in rhyming poetry or prose?

@Leon-Fleming you are right. NaNoWriMo in November is supposed to help you write like 50k words in a month or something by writing 2k a day. I am talking about camp NaNoWriMo in April and July which are supposed to help you get on track and practice writing that much for November. July isn’t as strict as November.

Thanks, @devastate-lasting good luck with your writing schedule!

@kathleenramm

To read: Plot twist!!! Though I also love a good dialogue or description. And suspense in a story will definitely keep me reading, especially if I’m trying to figure things out along with the main character rather than knowing what’s going on and simply pleading with the main character to FIGURE IT OUT ALREADY. XD

To write: I enjoy…[Read more]

@leon-fleming, okay. tag me if you end up getting on

@leon-fleming, @jenwriter17, @seekjustice (hopefully it isn’t a strange time this time), @valtmy, @rochellaine, @dekreel, @Ariel-ashira, @selah-chelyah, @catwing, @anyone else

I’m on for a bit

Farewell everyone!

@selah-chelyah

I definitely suggest checking out the entire soundtrack, not only are all the songs amazing, but all the voices too

@selah-chelyah

I went into completely prepared to not be impressed, I was 75% won over but not completely until “Never in a Million Years” started. So beautifully done. It is sad that they changed The Plagues from the original because I loved that one, but over all it was just fantastic

@selah-chelyah RIGHT?!?! I’ve been humming them off and on since I discovered the soundtrack. Absolutely stunning music.

@selah-chelyah hey!

@seekjustice, its only 4 for me now and I was just about to get back on and get some beta reading down.

It’s called the Clockmaker’s Daughter. Not really new, but it was only out for 4 months in Ireland a few years back so I don’t know how well known it is.

YES! I love “Never in a Million Years” “Dance for the Day” and “Footsteps on the sand”

I’m leaving for now, but I plan to be on again later so tag me and I might come hang out and I will bring coffee and cake

I’m still here, FYI

anyone interested in joining me?

@jenwriter17

@jennwriter17, @rochellaine, @seekjustice, @catwing, @valtmy, @ariel-ashira, @dekreel

I’m writing a short  story if anyone wants to come join me. Also, would love to word war for 10 minute segments and talk about broadway because I found a new musical that is simply amazing and my family is tired of hearing me talk about it
