@emily I actually deduced that you would probably kill the bugs some way. Sure, I did not guess how. But I awaited my snack. *mysterious grin*
@CK4always I didn’t sign up on anything, I’m just doing it. *shrug* @seekjustice @jane-maree @perfect-fifthes @daughteroftheking ?

I’m doing NaNo! I and so are @seekjustice @jane-maree [ @jess-penrose are you?]
My book is Starting Fires the second book of my series Seven and Three (It may change…)
It should be around 50,000 words. *nods* It’s fantasy and sci-fi and allegory. Fun. 🙂

Emma Flournoy started the topic Scott Gustafson in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago

Hey people.

Have any of you ever heard of or seen the work of artist Scott Gustafson? He does a lot of fairy-tale/fantasy/fables art, and it is AMAZING. His art looks so real, but at the same time has an extremely cute, bookish quality to it. Considering we have a few artists, and fantasy and fairy-tale lovers here, I thought you might want to…[Read more]

Joy started the topic Haikus in the forum Poetry 8 years, 5 months ago

Has anybody ever written a haiku?? I’ve written a few…

Stars dotting the sky
Moonlight shining down at me
Shooting stars fly by (My very first haiku 🙂 )

Mom bought me white shoes
I wore them to summer camp
They ain’t white no more

Dreary, long-drawn rain
Whispering its secrets to
The listening earth

Here is my Haiku
Wait, that wasn’t the…[Read more]

@jane-maree Thanks! Actually most of the people I tagged aren’t Whovians, but still! Another Whovian friend! 🙂

@lady-iliara Thank you! Glad you like it! Now go watch the show!! 😉

Catwing started the topic On the issue of powerful swords. in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago

So for this book I’m working on there are some powerful swords. For now the Dragon Sword and the Da’Hathian Sword.
But for their powers…
Dragon Sword. (Orange)
Orange ball (I can’t detail for you guys cause it may spoil things)
Blast of orange light.

Da’Hathian Sword (Blue)
Glows blue.
Can make frogs happy.
Ice.

Basically I have two swords…[Read more]

Ben Powell replied to the topic Su cuy'gar! (Translation: Hello!) in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 5 months ago

@jane-maree Hmm… that’s a hard one. I’d have to say that Rogue One and Revenge of the Sith tie for my favorite Star Wars film. Unfortunately, those are the ones where everyone dies. 🙂 From the way the trailers look, though, The Last Jedi will probably be my new favorite.

@daeus Yes, I am actually a male. 😉 Maybe we should do something to fix…[Read more]

Daeus started the topic Cover Feedback in the forum 8 years, 5 months ago

Hi KeePers,

I just got a cover design for a short story I’m writing and I wanted to get your feedback on it.

I personally am very happy with the sharp, clean design, but I do think there’s room for a tiny bit more detail. I’m thinking maybe I should add some very subtly ominous feature, but I’m not sure what that should be. Or maybe the…[Read more]

Ethryndal started the topic Fairytale Expectations in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago

Guys. I have a question.

When you know that a book is a fairy tale, what do you automatically assume will happen? What direction do you expect the plot to go, what kind of characters do you expect to meet, what plot twists do you expect to happen, etc?

For instance, I always assume there will be a romance.

Also, I wouldn’t mind hearing all the…[Read more]

Kylie replied to the topic NaNoWriMo in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago

@jane-maree Thank you for the link, it’s super helpful. @seekjustice Thank you for the advice and encouragement. IT really helps!! And my name on the site is Kylie.

SeekJustice replied to the topic So…I need some MORE advice in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 6 months ago

@Dekreel I agree with everything @kate-flournoy and @jane-maree have said so far. Writing on paper is a good idea for the first draft. In fact, that’s what I’ve done for a lot of my novels. I write the first draft in a notebook and then edit it as I type it up.
I know it can be hard to fight those perfectionist urges, but honestly it’s a bad idea…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy, @dragon-snapper, @daughteroftheking, @jane-maree, @that_writer_girl_99,
@any other eloquent advisers?

As some of you probably know, I have been working on a novella, but I have a problem. When I write, everything has to be perfect, so I constantly go back and revise the stuff I’d already written in the novella; I’m not moving…[Read more]

I don’t think there is a forum like this in here! Either that or I just haven’t looked thoroughly enough. That’s totally possible. 🙂

Anyway, what is/are your favorite book(s)?

Mine are:
All Things Bright and Beautiful by James Herriot
The Wingfeather Saga by Andrew Peterson (a series of four)
Night by Elie Wiesel
Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine…[Read more]

Ingrid replied to the topic Critique this? in the forum Poetry Critiques 8 years, 6 months ago

@dekreel This is a great poem. I love the tree’s voice.
There are definitely some parts that are awkward. I echo what @daughteroftheking said about the line

How I long for a pool of water to the rim

And I also agree with @jane-maree about the dark mood. I felt like the tree was dying and in agony almost the whole time. Maybe turn his…[Read more]
