Alright. Hopefully we’re good now. Can you find any way to improve it? Does it attract you? (why or why not?)

@Daeus
I like the changes you made regarding the sentence structure that @kate-flournoy mentioned. Nice job. One other thing I noticed.Returning to wreak his vengeance, Matthew takes on the character of the mysterious Edwin Brook. His wealth and power make his success almost certain, but strange events keep thwarting his every move.

Yes, I should think so. 😀 Such a shame, all the stuff cool is happening in the States. 😛 We don’t even have a Disneyland here (yet…?) 😛

It’s really good, I think I’m interested. I think I agree with @kate-flournoy about the slight choppiness of the whole thing. Perhaps a little more backstory? (I am not an expert on how synopses work, so I don’t know how much one should put in and how much one should leave out)
“…but strange events keep thwarting his every move. In a…[Read more]

I’d probably rate it 8 too. Well, we’re consistent. 😛
Yeah, I think it’s pretty good, and considering I’m not really good at synopses, you’ve done a better job than me. 😛 Oh, and I see what @kate-flournoy means by the “Something something something, something something something result,” structure. Like she said, you may want to vary. Like, we…[Read more]

Ooh, I like it! Although, I’m really not the best judge when it comes to stuff like this…Haha! But it definitely kept my interest throughout.
I don’t have anything to add, really. I agree with what @kate-flournoy said about the sentence structure. I did notice that, but, overall, I think you did a great job -much better than I could’ve done.…[Read more]

Alright, folks. So I need your sharpest analytical minds here. You see, I kinda need a finished synopsis today so I threw one together last night and would appreciate your best criticism on it. If you ever feel at any point in the synopsis that it has dipped in interest, that it sounds jerky, or that there could be better wording, please let me…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Bummer! I don’t believe I can fit in a quick trip to Indiana for a conference in my plans next year. 😉 XD

Snapper replied to the topic Ren in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 9 months ago
@kate-flournoy I have every confidence that Rogue One is going to be awesome, because it doesn’t have Anakin Skywalker or Jar Jar Binks in it. Those two characters made the prequels bad…this is not about those characters.

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Ren in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 9 months ago
@kate-flournoy I think had heard it was set between Episode III and Episode IV. We watched an honest trailer (or some sort of trailer analysis, I can’t remember) the guy kept saying “#RogueOneisaPrequel” as if implying it’s going to be terrible, because the original prequels were.

@daeus @kate-flournoy Okay, so if you’re turbulent, you act like your personality type, but you also sometimes act like others? XD That’s interesting.

Snapper replied to the topic Writers' Corner #3 in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 9 months ago
@kate-flournoy …So, I think that I’ll probably just stop now because I can’t seem to write anything that I like…at all. Good luck though!
I wrote 463 words all told. -
Snapper replied to the topic Writers' Corner #3 in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 9 months ago
@daeus Very good!
@kate-flournoy I think I’ll keep going…get this muse to do something with itself. 😛
So far 264 words. -
