@kathleenramm It was one of those homeschool minivans, which is lowkey funny to me. That would make a great device, as well as a way to introduce a character.

Thank you all so much!! I suppose the main thing that I want critiqued is the main character, Ember. That’s she’s likable enough, I suppose. Also, I haven’t written in 1st person before, and I just want to be sure that everything is clear in that person. Oh, and there’s a sword fight in chapter 3, and I haven’t…[Read more]

@nanisnook

First of all, I think that’s so brave of you to be posting your first three chapters!! 🙂 I know it can be scary to let other people see your work, and it’s totally normal to feel nervous about this (I know I did), but I would LOVE to read through your chapters!!

@lewilliams

I got one book. Only one. But it is the best book you’re ever gonna read.

What We Found In The Sofa and How It Saved The World by Henry Clark.

I’m not gonna bother explaining it. I’ll sound insane if I do.

Just read it.

Make me happy.

And that is all I have to say.

@lewilliams

I just now realized you mentioned you already liked some of Tolkien and C.S. Lewis’ works (and owned TWS), so sorry about that. XD. Also, I just remembered: if you ever want to try out a nonfiction book, you could look into The Writer’s Journey. It helps you structure your story, figure out character roles, and also touches on the T…[Read more]

@lewilliams

*grins cheekily* *rubs hands together* Oh goodness, thank you for beginning such a lovely (and helpful) topic! You’re not the only one racking the shelves for good books. XD Anyways, I’d love to help you out if I could with finding some book recommendations, my dear writing friend. 😉 Though, I think we have similar taste, so most of…[Read more]

Oh, and the last line was

She’s a hopeless case.

Which sounds really dramatic, but… it’s talking about a horse. XD Oh, the joys of sentences taken out of context. 😛

Thanks again for sprinting, gals! <33

Signing off pretty late after being done… 2130 words!

Thank you @nanisnook (Great sprint btw), @daisy-torres, and @issawriter7 for writing with me! <33

@mkfairygirl

Agh, I didn’t see your message until it was too late. Hope you get through your writer’s block quickly!! <33

@mkfairygirl Aww I’m sorry. Writer’s block is the worst 🙁

You’re welcome. I’m glad we could!!!!

@relia

Awesome!!! I’d love to learn elven.

Oh, that’s fascinating! I bet I’d really enjoy reading that.

Right. I feel like I should read it eventually, due to its status as a classic. 😛

Grrr, that’s so sad!!! 🙁

@nanisnook Woo-hoo!!!! You did great!!!!! 😀

I’m . . . uh *cough* . . . getting a little writer’s block. So, I’m going to take a break now. My sorta last line is:

“Get to work!” I shouted.

Thank you so much for writing with me!!!!!!!! 😀

@mkfairygirl Signing off for now with 478 words

@mkfairygirl Yay!! Staring at :55! 😀

@nanisnook Yes, absolutely!!!! 😀

@mkfairygirl

I’m about to start again. Can I join you?

@lydia-s I just now saw this! (I wish I had seen it sooner ’cause I’ve been writing for an hour and a half. *face palm*) Anyway, if you’re still writing, I’ll join you!!! 🙂

@nanisnook

Yeah, I’ll still be going! Got two hours until we reach our vacation house, so I’ll prob be on until then. And I’ve gotten distracted too, so don’t worry about it. 😀

@lydia-s

Soooo…I kinda got distracted for 30 minutes talking to my parents about college…if you’re still going after lunch, though, I will join you!
