@whalekeeper You just enjoy messing with us, don’t you?

@whalekeeper

*concern*

Umm explanation, please. Are you and your family alright?

My first written story was about a squirrel who drank coffee and eventually saved his father from an owl by using coffee. I am very imaginative, and I come up with stories often, but almost none of them are written.

@whalekeeper

WHAT HAPPENED?

You can’t say that and just leave!!!

My first written stories were about the tales I used to tell my little brother about a land called Nutmag (not Nutmeg, NutMAG huge difference, I know). It had talking animals and no humans. I even had a theme song for it that I’d sing before telling Ezra a story. I wrote at least three short stories only about two to three pages long. I still have…[Read more]

Chase

Chase looked at the floor, his eyes black. “Th-that’s sad. S-shall I in-intro-duce him s-sometime? A-all p-people should know f-fawns.” chase made a motion with his hand, as if petting some invisible animal.

@whalekeeper

Are you okay???

The first stories I remember writing were 2nd grade assignments. In one, this group of ducks, Helen, Joy, Valentine, and Lulu, were at home being babysat by this really cool babysitter (I think her name was Lila, and she was both a police officer and a princess) who was taking them out to go toilet paper people’s houses. I’d just found out that…[Read more]

@koshka XD  That’s a lot of fruit. Maybe you’re hungry lol

Felicity 

“Fawns? Like baby deer?” Felicity gave Chase a somewhat confused look. “Well, I don’t know if he’s ever actually seen one. He’s such a city kid.”

@linus-smallprint

Hey, here’s an idea. I have come across some lessons to help improve characters. There are five of them. What if we went through them together, both taking one or two characters that readers felt were flat (that would be Charles and Thom for me) and see what comes out of it? We could invite others to join as well. If we don’t lik…

Mateo

Mateo broke his gaze with Celarent to look at his little friend. He contemplated for a moment, then spoke, “Fine, but you,” he pointed at Celarent, “Better choose your words more carefully.”

@ellette-giselle

XD The second one reminds me of a time at co-op when I mentioned I hadn’t liked a book because I couldn’t connect to the characters, and this one guy just looked at me and said “Because they’re fictional.” He must lead a sad life.

@theshadow

I’m glad I could help!!

Yes! Lmk when you flesh out the ideas more, I’d love to hear what you come up with!

@trailblazer

Pretty much all the public schoolers have phones and are preoccupied with boys and drama at school

😣 I wish schools didn’t have to be that way. It’s crazy that when I hear of a 12 or 13 year old dating or whatever, I’m not surprised. I don’t agree with it! but it doesn’t shock me. 🙁 I mean, y’all should be enjoying your childhood a…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @koshka @hybridlore @elishavet-pidyon @trailblazer @theducktator @grcr @theshadow

Y’all are so so so helpful!!! I wish I could reply to each individual response, but that would take a while. 🤪

The theme I’m getting from most of the responses though is that MG needs more wholesomeness, or at least that was what you enjoyed the mos…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

thanks!!!!

@koshka

Okay, so my brain has been reading things with interesting twists to words. I literally just read that as “We’ve reached 500 papayas, guys.”

I almost choked on my yogurt XD

@loopylin

Chase

Chase was confused. Did she not know if this person was a friend or not? “D-does he l-like f-faw, fawwwns?” It was random, and not the best type of q…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Me too!
