LOL, soooo true!!!  I have multiple boxes of notebooks, so it would be a challenge to get them out… (with the bird and cat and hamster and fish, of course 😜)

Brainstorming-ness: 8-9;  brainstorming is one of my stronger suits

Time: depending on the length, I’m a pretty fast reader, so a 50-60k novel would take less than a month to read and effectively critique (2 1/2 – 3 weeks?)

Word count: any novel below 1…[Read more]

Yeah, I agree with everyone else.  It really depends on what your goals are as a writer:  to make money?  to be productive?  to have fun?  Once you flesh out your goal, your choice becomes easier to make.  Above all, honoring God should be the overarching goal, so whatever choice you make, honoring him through it is what matte…[Read more]

I feel that!  Ooo, I love jogging too!!  Well, hang in there and if you need to, just put the scene outline in brackets and move on (e.g. [#1 wants to attack and #2 wants to stay put;  they argue, but #1 wins eventually]).

@devastate-lasting

Wow!!  I’m impressed!!  Great job, keep it up!!!

@godlyfantasy12

Nice!!  I like that…[Read more]

@writerlexi1216

Aw, sorry.  Is there any way I can help (read it and give tips/brainstorm/advice)?  I totally feel that most of the time.

Seriously?!?!  AWESOME!!!!

*drools*  From where?  I don’t know if this is just a thing where I live, but have you heard of Barbarosa?  It has really good coffee too!!

Ooo, @joy-caroline I love your pfp!

Hey people!  How’s writing (or life in general)? 😊

I wrote… let’s see… 1157 words this morning, then did an awesome HIIT (high-intensity interval training) workout and a super fun yoga workout after (not meditation, just to clarify, LOL!!).  (If anyone’s interested, the videos i watched are by Maggie Binkley and she’s super awesome!! And m…[Read more]

*trys to say something but can’t find any words*

Daisy!!!  This is even better than the last one!!!  Her you-know-who shows up, then she does you-know-what to him, then her other you-know-who shows up and I’m like “this is amazing!!!” and *takes a deep breath to calm down* WOW!!!!  You made me laugh out loud, too, haha!! &#…[Read more]

@daisy-torres

YAY!!!  I’m so glad it’s helped you!  Thanks for letting us read it ❤

@daisy-torres

………  I think this was the best chapter so far……..  SOOO goooood, but really sad!!  And I adore the description and suspense.  You also used all 5 senses, which brought the chapter to a whole other level.  The mystery, intrigue, beauty… I’m sooo ready for the next chapter!! 💛💛💛 (is that going to be the last one?  that’…[Read more]

to reply to your question on another topic, I might publish my book, I haven’t really thought about, lol!!  probably, if it’s good enough. 🙂 Oh, and #1 is called Lioness (for now) and #2 is As Dark As Mist & Shadow. 

Thanks, that means a lot!! ❤

@lucy

If it helps you, go for it!!!  I think it’s a cool idea, maybe she can do both?  Or if not, than mind reading’s pretty awesome by itself!! 😄

@daisy-torres

Girl, that was great!!  Super fun to read, as always! 😉

@writerlexi1216

Thanks, girl!!! ❤

@daisy-torres

OOO, YAY!! let me read it real quick and I’ll give you some feedback…

@writerlexi1216

It’s good!!  I only write about 250 words today, but I finished plotting for one of my POVs, so that’s nice.  Just gotta finish the other POV, then I’m all done with that!  I just made a word-count goal, which is 75k by the end of the year.  Pretty loose, but we’ll see how it goes… 🤞
