Very well, thanks! I’m finding it really interesting.

I finished the first draft of that book so I’m giving it a rest for a few months, probably till March or April, and then I’m going to do a rewrite. Until then I’m playing with some plotting for another novel (the pirate one) and poking at SFI a little bit, seeing what I can do…[Read more]

@jenwriter17

Yep, and I’ve been so busy lately with a new job!

@jenwriter17 Yep, I’m here! How are you doing?

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 @alia @anyone else

Anyone around? I’m not really doing anything but just feel like chatting with some other writers for a bit!

@kathleenramm “I’m tired. I have homework. I’ll do it afterward. I’m not feeling it.”

Mainly those, honestly. But if I can force myself to start, I can force myself to finish.

@gracie-j Ahh thanks for your encouragement! Only downside is having to decipher all my handwriting and type it all in, but I’m not gonna think about that for now, haha.

@issawriter7 Of course!

@gracie-j As you probably know by now, I a) am working on a very long fantasy project right now, and b), writing it all by hand. As you also probably know, I have a specific size of notebook I like to use, so that I can keep my word count, with one installment per notebook…

Last year I was calculating how long it would take me to finish…[Read more]

@gracie-j Hmmm…thanks for your input! What would you define as a novella collection, and how would I query it? I’ve read somewhere that if you want to query a short story collection usually you have to have a novel out first. Should I work on my 70-80k work then and try to get that out first?

Oof…having similar content, haha…I don’t read…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 It’s been going pretty good! I’ve been keeping up with my new schedule of 5 pgs per day, and I’ll be finishing this a lot quicker than I did before.

I started my other small WIP, but haven’t got very far yet, but I did plot the whole thing! So I’m excited.

I also finished a short story during CWW! Very happy even though I cried…[Read more]

@e-k-seaver Ayeeeee! (Of course, if we weren’t in a forum setting but somewhere like Discord, you might think different XD)

@joy-caroline I don’t know anything, but I was also thinking about this, and I think I’m gonna try to publish a 30k work before a 180k work. Hopefully someone else can provide some insight!

@e-k-seaver I got ISTJ, which is quite interesting. I remember that was the one my dad got. I’ll have to wait and see if I can relate to it.

@kathleenramm XD I was kind of overwhelmed at first too but after like two or three chapters that no longer became a problem. I should read some of her other stuff too…

@ugroza Every time I take the thing I get something different, but I usually get INFJ, INFP, or ISFJ. I like writing fantasy, crime, slice of life.

I read Summer of the Swans a couple of days ago. 1970 middle-grade children’s fiction about a girl during puberty and her autistic brother. I thought it was a sweet, quick read. I haven’t touched a book like that in literal years, so it kind of brought me back to when I was a kid.

@godlyfantasy12 That looks lit! I’d love to find out more about her!

@kathleenramm (Realistic!) Ooh, I read the first book of All the Wrong Questions a long time ago. Never got around to the others, though.

@lewilliams Professor Layton! Never played but I do know about him.

@abigail-m She’s my dad’s favorite English author! I highly recommend And Then There Were None!
