@Leumeister yes, excellent idea. That way the emphasis is not on the goal itself, but why the antagonists/protagonist should or should not deserve/accomplish it, based on the rightness of their worldview.

Also a very good point, @Anna-Brie. I agree.

Wow @jess. I think you’re muse needs a smoke alarm 😛

@dragon-snapper @jess I wrote 598 words. I think my muse is starting to come back.

@PerfectFifths FontRiver is another good one.

Ah, well have a good night @kate-flournoy. Don’t go swallowing your glasses anymore.

@dragon-snapper @anyone-else I’m still gonna write tonight.

@Daeus @Dragon-Snapper I won’t be able to write tonight. Good luck if you guys go without me.

@PerfectFifths yes, I had loads of fun teaching myself all the different old fonts I could find… in fact I probably should have learned the basics first, but I wanted to learn those other fonts so badly I plunged right into the advanced styles and mastered the basics on the way. 😛 I especially like the Gothic font— the one used most in old…[Read more]

@PerfectFifths I am so jealous… 😛 I actually taught myself calligraphy simply because I loved the font Tolkien uses for his maps so much I wanted to make maps the same way. XD

@PerfectFifths yesssssss. I love maps. Both drawing and looking at them. It’s my dream to have my own ‘office/study’ with the walls simply covered in maps. 😀

*pops in from random swirl of crazy life to shriek* MAPS!!! YES!!! *pops out again*

@dragon-snapper Thank you for the helpful questions.
@sierra-r & @kate-flournoy & @emma-flournoy Don’t stress. Children stories are hard. (And yes, there is a deadline, but not till Feb.)
@mark-kamibaya Yes, it is for a competition and yes, I did read your post. Rambling is alright. Sometimes your ramblings can be inspiration for another person.…[Read more]

@Leumeister ever painted textures on 3D models? Nope. Probably because I’m extremely uncivilized and disorganized and prefer going free-hand with everything. XD

And yes, Emma and I are sisters.

@Leumeister I like it! It’s got the bones of a great story. One thing I would say is you tend to tell sometimes where you should show. For instance,

She sauntered over, still trying to display an air of authority, coming in closer to examine him.

is pretty good, but it would be stronger if you simply described what she did and gave us the…[Read more]

I think the reason I didn’t actually start lessons with a teacher until recently was because there hadn’t been a piano teacher near where we lived until we came to Idaho.

Thanks for the encouragement! Sometimes it seems as though you’re completely aimless, but God has it under control. 🙂

Oh dear… children’s stories are NOT my area of expertise. I’ll let you know if I think of anything, but most of my ideas are ridiculously hard to simplify into something like that. 😛

@Bluejay

@Alia yes, now that you mention it, I definitely see that.

*cringe* I don’t know what to say. Are there any generic answers I can plagiarize?

@Daeus ha. 😀

… I believe that’s called plagiarism… XD
