@freedomwriter76 Hehe but this math course is honestly more enjoyable than a lot of the other courses I’m in, haha.
And no, my life isn’t going well. I hope yours is though!

@freedomwriter76 Hahaha. There’s more algebra than I expected but yeah, it’s one of the main reasons I’ve been gone from the forum for the past few months.
@lydia-s Whoa, that’s awesome! I was debating on joining the Conservatory, haha, but my parents would kill me. Your novel sounds really cool; would love to read it one day!

@freedomwriter76 Lol wait till you learn about Linear Algebra (though you probably won’t, that’s my cross to bear).
Aww, thank you for the prayers! Yeah, nah, my friends are like that to me as well, except even more harsh, though I know it’s cuz they care about me.
Yeah, can’t wait to talk to you more too!

@felicity That sounds really good! I’d love to try it someday!
@lewilliams Eyyyyyyy there’s that familiar platypus profile picture! Good to see you too! Life is. Kind of a roller-coaster, I have a really busy semester ahead of me and I’m not sure how I’m going to balance writing with it, but we’ll see. How are you?

@power Eyy love to see that you’re still here! One of the core tenets of the forum.
@booksandbeakers Oo that’d be exciting!
@folith-feolin Eyyy Lovecraft is definitely something else! He has beautiful prose!
@felicity Nice to meet you! What are some of the desserts you make?

@sarafini Yes! Stories definitely get easier the more you do. Hey, novelettes and novellas are impressive! I’ve done very few of those.

@loopylin I believe horror has supernatural elements whereas thriller is more of a crime thing, like the difference between a ghost and a killer. The premise of your story sounds a lot like Bendy and the Ink Machine, but I would totally read it!
Aye, I believe you can also finish a book one day!

@loopylin Hey there! Another Lin! Yeah, Alice in Wonderland is definitely on the surreal side and is One of The Books Of All Time. Oo, you do horror too? I have some half-written short stories that try to be a bit on the horror side, but I feel like a lot of mine edge on thriller instead.
I do have several finished books, but nothing published…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings Lol yeah it’s something similar to Alice in Wonderland or something like that, where nothing makes sense.

@esther-c Whoa, that’s really long! I really struggle with writing long works, lol. I always barely meet whatever word count I want them to be.

@esther-c I’m pretty sure it’s a word, lol. Yeah, the family drama was always really emotional for me.

@mineralizedwritings Absurd comedy is basically a type of surrealism where the comedic part comes from the ridiculousness or unlikeliness of the situation. I’ve seen some great shows that are like that, but I’m not too sure how to implement it in writing yet, fufu.
@booksandbeakers Nice to meet you! Your WIP sounds quite interesting! Does it have…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 She’s tearing apart the WIP, haha. Looks like I’ll need to rework a lot of it.

@gracie-j I love the vibes from it! (Currently my sister is tearing it apart so I could use some encouragement…lol 🥲)

@mineralizedwritings Wow! You’re good at drawing! And your WIP sounds quite interesting, though I don’t think I want to live in that world, haha. I prefer giving critiques in Google Docs, so if you ever send it in that format, I’d be glad to look at it!
To be honest, I feel like most of my “slice-of-life” plots are full of just drama and sadness,…[Read more]

@esther-c Whoa, I love that aesthetic! The life of Jonah would be really cool to see, since it’s so vague what is given in the Bible! I’d love to see someone’s interpretation of it.
I’m not really one to write Biblical fiction, but the only one I’ve ever really wanted to write was the story of David and Absalom. Every time I read it in the Bible,…[Read more]

Hello, Mallory!! I guess I should introduce myself. I’m Esther: a volleyball-playing, violin-squeaking, dog-obsessed, homeschooled, God-loving, amateur writer!!
As for the short answer to your question: Great!!
Now for the long answer:
It looks like you haven’t been active for a while. I’ll tell ya, lots of new people have joined since…[Read more]
Hi, Esther! Thanks, I appreciate the welcome! 😊 I’m glad to hear the forum is so active these days. Volleyball is cool! What position do you play? I was homeschooled too. I have a variety of hobbies, but right now I’m into archery (total beginner), watercolor painting, and walking. And I like all kinds of animals, but maybe cats the most (because…[Read more]
I play setter! Though that may change since I may be joining a new team this year. Idk yet. 🤷🏻♀️
Ooooh! Archery sounds cool!! We went to this place for my brother’s birthday in where you shoot arrows (in a variety of archery games), but obviously they are foam on the end. I was terrible at it. 😂
Watercolor painting is really neat!! I’ve done it…[Read more]
Only the nice ones. I agree with you there! How are you doing these days?
I’m doing pretty good!! School’s over, so that’s really nice. XD And summer break’s been fun. 😊 I’m going to be participating in some really fun things in June and July and I’m really excited. 😄 Plus I have a summer job, so that’s been fun. 😉
What about you?
I’m doing good! I’m working a lot between my jobs as a photographer’s assistant and a clerk at the library, and writing in between. I’m working on finishing a draft of my WIP within the next three months and getting my blog up. I’ve been writing some poetry and song lyrics too. I’m also trying to do and learn as many new things as possible because…[Read more]
Ooooh, that sounds like fun!! 😄
When you start up your blog you’ll have to let me know! 😊
Sure! 🙂
