Snapper started the topic Why We Do This in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 2 months ago
Hey, everyone!
I was just thinking about writing (granted, I’m always thinking about writing, but that’s beside the point). Why do we do it? Why do we want to put a bunch of words onto a page; make remixes of the Dictionary? What motivates us?
Writer’s Block, in my opinion, is just lack of motivation, so, I was thinking that each of us writers…[Read more] -

Daeus replied to the topic The sign of the four in the forum Book Discussions 8 years, 4 months ago
@hope That’s a good point. I do have different expectations for a modern as opposed to a classic book. Of course, good writing is always good writing, but each age has its own trends. For Sherlock Holmes, I really wish the villains showed more emotion and incorporation when they were caught and I thought there could have been more emotion,…[Read more]

@Daeus Sorry I didn’t respond until now. I was at a drama workshop all day. 🙂
I suggested Sign of Four because it was the only Sherlock Holmes novel haven’t read yet. However, if the people who haven’t read Sherlock Holmes think reading Sign of Four would be confusing as it isn’t the first novel in the series, then let’s read A Study in…[Read more]

Ah! I’m finally caught up.
Okay, @hannah-olsen, I’m beginning to see what you mean about the humor, especially with Molly learning to decorate her name and leaving work early.
I’m also seeing more serious warnings from Orwell, most noticeably, when Napoleon takes away all the calves from their mothers for the sake of “education,” claiming it…[Read more]

That’s a great quote, @hannah-olsen! Another quote I love from her is, “Nothing is impossible. The word itself says ‘I’m possible.'”

Me too! I love that one! I’m sort of an Audrey Hepburn fan… 😀

Haha, yeah. Audrey Hepburn is pretty great. 🙂

Wow; just wow. Forget what I said because what you’re saying makes a lot more sense! 😉 I agree that you shouldn’t have to fulfill all of the reader’s expectations, just some. That way you leave room for more creativity and an awesome story! By the way, I would totally read that story about the girl and the evil faerie dragonfly! It sounds…[Read more] - Load More
