Ha. Anything, of course. 😉 No limit.

Yes. Besides reading, there’s almost nothing that can better prepare someone for writing than rewriting. Which may sound a bit counter-intuitive, but it’s true.

@Dragon-Snapper awesome handle. Is there a story behind that?

Oh yeah— welcome to the Realm of the KeePers of the Kingdom. There are *ahem* a few dragons on this forum, myself included… it would be greatly appreciated if you refrained from doing any… erm… snapping? 😉

Where do you hail from?

Glad to have you here. *salutes* Captain. 😉

@dragon-snapper *stares at post with open mouth. Reads command at the end and obeys* **Applauds**
Welcome to Kingdom Pen the bestistest place on earth.
*Gasps* *I’ve always wanted to fly* Dreams do come true.
So…tell us about you. How long have you been writing? Favourite authors? Genre?
And I’ll say it again………..welcome. 🙂

Yes, Lord of the Flies is really good. Very powerful. And concise. I really admire powerful concision. *chuckle* *snicker* *choke* They make it look so easy! *wails*

@Daeus I’ve read Monte Cristo… 😉

And @Hope I’ve read Lord of the Rings… 😉

*coughs* Okay, let’s see if I can add anything to this discussion. Fahrenheit 451, anybody? (That’s got to be in my top five favorites. Not kidding.)
Lord of the Flies?
North & South?
A Christmas Carol?

@daeus Sorry, missed your post. 🙁 So I ended up editing my stop motion instead.
But at least we were both being studious. 🙂 I’ll try tomorrow maybe.

@Daeus the rotten tomatoes have eaten me alive. I’ve been picking since six— my apologies. They’re really starting to come on now, and anyone is liable to instant conscription from here on out. 😉 Tell you what. If I get a night I’m available, I’ll tag you.

@daeus Are you writing? Cause I can join you for 20mins if you are….

Has anyone read “Frindle”???? 😉

@jadamae Yes, that’s the book. It’s it terrible. A combination of happy and sad and every other feeling in between. I have just read it and I could NOT stop crying. *For anyone who hasn’t read it, you should.*
And @hope, it might sound familiar because it happened in Indiana; you’re from there aren’t you? The crash took place on the 26th of April,…[Read more]

@Daeus my apologies for the late response— I was sorting tomatoes. 😉 I will be writing, but probably not for very long now.
I should be available tomorrow though.

I’m sorry Gabrielle, I haven’t either. I do think it’s more a program for beginning novelists than anything else, though.

@clairec; @sarah-h Yes today was the right day. I really didn’t get much time to read and when I did I almost fell asleep as I had a busy day yesterday and not enough sleep.
But well done to both of you. Great work.
@hannah-c Did you do it today?

@Daeus okay. Thanks. 🙂

That seems about right, @Daeus… though I can’t say for certain because I don’t think I’ve ever been seriously offended. I might be too shocked to do anything at all coherently. 😛 But women are definitely more ones to talk over a problem and see if they can get it worked out that way than ignore it and move on, pretending (to themselves or…[Read more]

@Daeus every thought is a categorical statement? Whew… lucky you. 😛 For my part, though my brain is more or less categorized (think computer browser with a million tabs open in a billion windows), I jump so rapidly from category to category it’s really difficult to keep a steady thread of thought sometimes. I digest information more…[Read more]

@Daeus oh. *disappointed sigh* Alas, it was not to be. 🙁 😉 🙂 😀 You could do that with a sequel though…
