@dragon-snapper *visibly cringes* XD

@dragon-snapper I think my Mum said that Christians especially use the term “unpack.” We’re also homeschooled, and a lot of the resources we used were American, because that’s all there was, so she’d seen it around a lot.

@dragon-snapper I don’t know if this would be considered slang, but Americans say “unpack” a lot in the context of teaching. Like, “We’ll unpack this as we go.” It is really annoying 😛

@winter-rose Yes, I agree with @daeus. But always wait between actually writing the thing, and all the hard editing/proofreading.

@dragon-snapper Lol, one of my ‘Merican friends that says “Ya’ll” a lot was trying to get me to say it (and by say it, I mean type in our chat conversation 😉 ) and I refused, until right when she had to go, so I said it to make her happy 😉 😀

@winter-rose @dragon-snapper *crashes in and accidentally drops the plate of muffins she brought* Hi. I’m writing but I’m tired so I don’t know how long I’ll be here.

@dragon-snapper @winter-rose Oh yeah, whatever you do, keep working on other projects! If you get out of your writing groove, it can be very hard to get back in. I probably should have clarified before, but by taking a break, I meant taking a break from that particular project, let it brew for a while, and work on something else you may have had…[Read more]

@daeus Sounds good. I think you have my email from last time.

@winter-rose Breaks? What are those? Who has time for breaks? XD

I do leave a project for a little bit when I’m done with it, but I never actually take a break from writing because I’ve several projects going at a time. To get a good perspective on a manuscript, yes… taking a break for a few weeks or months (I’ve heard months is good but have…[Read more]

@daeus This book comes highly recommended. 😀 Though… I don’t have time for a page by page beta reading like I did last time. I should be able to read it through in a month and jot notes on each chapter or anything plot or character wise that catches my eye if that works for you.

As for a manuscript swap… even if it wasn’t taken, 170,000 is a…[Read more]

Sorry to hear that. 🙁 I will pray. ❤️

@winter-rose Taking a break is a good idea. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a month, but you should definitely have some time between finishing the first draft and beginning to edit/proofread/rewrite (if you leave it too long, though, that’s procrastinating, and you should make yourself do it. Personal experience 😉 )

As for your dilemma with…[Read more]

As for your dilemma with your Alpha, I don’t see why you can’t send it to her in the meantime. She may be able to give you some insight on how to…[Read more]

@emily-d Yes I’ve seen the movie, and I want to read the book 😀

@dragon-snapper Hmm… ‘Merican slang… I dunno. Do you have slang?

@theliterarycrusader Oh! If the handout is going to be available, don’t even worry about it! I wasn’t expecting it for a few weeks yet.

*caw* *caw* A raven swoops down upon the castle and releases a dwarf courier rabbit from its talons. After hitting its poor head on a stray volleyball and bouncing up in the air again, it hops aimlessly about until someone notices it. Then it hops around your left leg twice and stuffs a scroll…[Read more]

@rjk Just enter one. Sometimes people enter more than one and I just pick my favorite to enter for the voting by the writing team members. But yes… one, generally. 😉

@daughteroftheking @dragon-snapper @anyone I’m writing if anyone would like to join me. 😀

Hey Allison! Yes, I’m a Y-Dubber too! *high fives you* Welcome to the bestistest place on the Internet!

What is your novel about? 😀
