Me and my sister will get DnD supplies soon! 😄 I found several friends to play with irl as well. None of us has experience, so I’ll have to learn the DM role by myself.

@beth-torres

A list of suggestions, because lists seem to help me. :]

1. SLEEP.

2. Think hard to see if there are any emotional problems holding you back. Maybe you’re comparing your work to other people too much. Maybe you struggle to connect with your first draft because it doesn’t have the same punch you expected it to have.

Then, if there…[Read more]

I might just try this. I’ve been wanting to do a music challenge for a while.

I already know one of them! (cue groans from my siblings who have to bear with me crying every time I hear it now. XD)

@the-lost-journal

Okay, but don’t you think it is a little… robotic…? to just say: “the Bible and C.S. Lewis told me so!” Or a little childish? Well, of course if the Bible tells you something you should probably listen to it (obviously) but don’t have your own opinion on the matter? Like WHY does the Bible and Lewis say that?

I would be careful…[Read more]

@keilah-h

The last one, but I love endings.

@keilah-h

AHHH! That movie is the best!

@koshka

I know. It’s so bad.

Rory

Rory watched in fascination while Leo worked. As the older boy began wrapping his knee, he spoke. “Any profession you ever wished to work in?”

Rory swallowed and blinked. “I… I don’t really know what that means.”

@theducktator

🤣

@keilah-h

I know. 😢

@keilah-h

Cool!

Rory’s having trauma. again. He may not make it to the dance.

@koshka

Her huff of frustration nearly blew his eardrum. He winced.

*Dies laughing*

Rory

Rory stared at the cloth Leo had given him. He wasn’t exactly sure what to do with it, so he folded it into a neat square and set it on his knee. Then he wiped the tears from his face with the back of his sleeve. Reaching out, he picked up the water…[Read more]

@koshka

L-E-O IS THE BEST!!!!

Rory

Rory regained his breath enough to reply, “As soon as we can.” He scrubbed the tears from his eyes with the back of his hand and swallowed hard.

@theducktator

Exactly. XD Although, I’m really glad to look back at my old stories now. It’s great for a few laughs.

I have often said that the first story I “wrote” was a picture book about a fairy that looked like a banana peal. I was between 6-7 at the time, I don’t remember.

My actually “written” stories include several I wrote for school, and some I wrote just for funsies. I found a folder of them recently, and laughed till I cried.

One was about a girl…[Read more]

@koshka

GIRL!!! You’re gonna make me cry! ‘

Rory

Rory hung on to Leo, pressing his face against the older boy’s shoulder. For a time he wept, and the relief was frighteningly sweet. At last he forced out in a choked voice, “Leo, I… I want to go back to the church.”

@koshka

Rory

Rory swung his foot against the floor and sniffed hard. “Two years ago. I… I was fourteen.” He rubbed his scared arm again. “I couldn’t go near planes again. I knew they would kill me, but I’d rather die then go up there again. I thought they would find out… but then i was transferred to another base. I don’t know why.” He…[Read more]

Some things never change

@koshka

Poor Rory. I actually feel bad.

Rory

Rory hoked back another sob and sucked in a shuddering breath. “My navigator was injured. The fire got him across the right side of his face, neck, and shoulder. He…. he broke down and started crying, and I held him. He was just a kid, Leo. We all were! It was the first time I had ever seen one…[Read more]
