Wow what a crazy topic to walk into, but I’m a fellow ENFP so I’m gonna join 🙂 @anne-of-lothlorien @sleepwalkingmk Here’s a question for you ENFPs. What’s easier for you to focus on when writing, the characters or the plot?
I tend to get so absorbed in my characters that the plot gets a bit jumbled. Plus I’m not good at outlining, I have to…[Read more]

8,500 words is nothing to be ashamed about. Keep it up! Even if you’re a little behind one day you may pump out 5,000 words and get ahead! (that’ s what usually happens to me 🙂 )

Let’s see an update of my NaNoing journey 2016. (Wahoo!)

My story is a historical fiction set in 1498. It’s to be an analogy of the verse “A…[Read more]

Hello fellow NaNo-ers. I’ll tell you what happened. I wasn’t going to do NaNoWriMo this year. But then it was the night of the 31st and there I stood listing off the reasons I wasn’t doing NaNo and they weren’t good enough. So here I am NaNoWriMo-ing with you (or suppose to be but instead I’m telling you about it here on the forum :p)
If a…[Read more]

@sierra-r Yay you made it to the start here! 😉 Welcome!
I know you’ll enjoy interacting with us book nerds much more than stalking us. :p
And congrats on being part of the writing team! I look forward to reading more of your articles!

@emma-flournoy take a breather. We gottcha covered. 😉

@daeus

Sure! dau (the account name is Leslie)

@daeus Does the whole world who gets to read it include me? Oh yes.. umm…please?!

@bluejay How cool is that! Nicely done. I really enjoyed the film and the analogy it gives. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!

@daeus I know I wasn’t tagged, but this very same thing happened to me a couple years ago. My sister and friend were just fine with the scene, but my mom left the room being disturbed. I was torn, cause like you I know I hadn’t done anything wrong, but had no intentions to upset my mom.
For me the best thing was to talk with my mom later asking…[Read more]

@daeus Awesomesauce! Thanks for the great critique. What you mentioned about “the round about way” is a downfall in my writing and life. Mom says I flower everything up when it can just be stated plain and simple.
All the other suggestions were very helpful thank you. I’ll be using those when I go back through and make edits.

@ingridrd Thank…[Read more]

Welcome to the forum Brandon! We can always use more comedic understudy’s here. And Daeus asked all the good questions.
So welcome and congrats on the writing internship!

@bluejay haha, you’re to sweet. 😉

@jess Ooo good point. *goes to switch things around*

@sarah-h Great guesses for the little bit given! It actually does take place in England about 1498. Though it’s not strictly historical fiction cause I don’t know everything about that time period. Though I realized after I posted it that there’s a couple…[Read more]

@alia Oh! I couldn’t decide which number you’d be ling about, the states or the China wall times. That’s so cool that you’ve been to China though!

@gretald I’ll guess #2

I could never choose out of these four which was my favorite. 🙂
The Inheritance (Family Films version) It’s a Louisa May Alcott story. I am inclined to like this much better than Little Women. It’s a contrast between two female characters one who’s out to get all she can from life and one who wants to give all she is through life.

@dragon-snapper Whoa! Hahaha! Nice job!
