Grrr….I’m trying to do this via phone cause our Internet on our computers is down. Not easy.
So it should be “how to make quotes”

Can someone tell me how the makes quotes look like quotes. Mine just look like I’ve rewritten them.

A book where nobody dies.
Now that would be freaky.
Why? None of my characters ever die.

A prince who is selfish (and decides to leave the princess in the tower
Love it @gretald

*good. Not go

So true @anna-brie. So true. I don’t know how many times I’ve written something that I think is so go only to have my mum or sister tell me is so uninteresting or not needed.

A maiden in a tower as the villain.
I like that one @anna brie Do you mind if I use it in a story? 🙂

A handsome young villain with evil butterflies wielding time sabers ready to rule the world.
Hmmmm…this is getting interesting! 😀

oops! get rid of the y beside the 100. (Grrrr…..)

Like this @hope ?
A 100y year old little lady who is a complete tech savvy. 🙂

Wow! I have rels in Canberra. Yeah. It is so cold here. It was drizzling as we played a game of cricket and was overcast and not very summery. 🙁
Yes! Daydreams are great for short stories. @kate-flournoy has been telling me that everything has a story in it. You just have to think creatively. And it’s working for me. Last night I had a headache…[Read more]

@anna-brie You might get this today, cause our time will be closer than America. 🙂

@anna-brie Hello. And no you’re not the first Australian. I signed up a few weeks/months ago. I am quite new to story writing and I certainly don’t write novels. 🙁 Scary!!! The most I’ve written is around a 5 page story. 🙂
Where about in Aus are you? I live down in Victoria almost on the border. Isn’t Australia a great place to live??? (Sorry…[Read more]

@Sarah-h – No, book 5 is not the end one. Book 6 is. But I have read 1-4 miss 5 and then 6, so I know how it ends. I haven’t read The Young Underground so it wasn’t too sad. 🙂

@Sarah-h – Carry On, Mr. Bowditch is about Nathaniel Bowditch’s (a real person) journey from his modest beginnings, to his first sea voyage, to his rigorous self-education, to the triumphs of his fine-tuned mastery of navigation and eventual publication of his famous work, The American Practical Navigator (also known as the “Sailor’s Bible”).…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy – Yes lunch. (Which I have had now. It is actually 12:54pm) And if it was 8pm over here I’d be heading to bed. Which sounds nice cause I had a late night (got to bed at 1am) cause my sister had her engagement party. But no, I still have the whole afternoon ahead of me.
@daeus – You’ll probably find that you skim read it cause you…[Read more]

Oops sorry @daeus. (My fingers are way toooo fast for my brain and I’m hungry for lunch so my head isn’t focused.) 😛

You were right @writefury. It is the fear of long words. (Thank you Google. 🙂 ) I like your idea too @deaus

Yes! Yes! Yes! Normally I hate maths (I have a soon to be brother-in-law who can’t understand how I can dislike it) but Nat makes me wish that I had a better brain and I sometimes feel like learning Latin and Greek too. 🙂

I have no idea what they do as I’m Australian not New Zealand. I found it in a book and loved it ever since. 😛
