@christi-eaton Sorry. I like audiobooks, but prefer reading in paper or kindle.

@christi-eaton I’m afraid I can’t recommend any since I’ve never listened to audiobooks. 🙈 Being an introvert, I retain things better by reading rather than by listening. 🙂

@emily-d Maybe instead of using all the characters, she could just take her two favorites and incorporate them in a new story. Or she could create a new story with different characters but have the characters be similar to the ones in her abandoned story. 🙂

@rochellaine @jenwriter17 Love the quotes! ❤️ 🙂 Here are some Charles Spurgeon ones I like (they aren’t exactly writing related, but they could be applied to writing):
“Rome was not built in a day, nor much else, unless it be a dog kennel.”
“He is not the best student who reads the most books, but he who meditates the most upon them.”…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper @dekreel @catwing *whistling triple dent gum* Anger yells “No!” and pounds the control panel. Mind workers solemnly resolve never to forget these songs and decide to throw the memory of algebra into the memory dump.

@valtmy Wow! This sounds cool enough to give me a headache. lol
I doubt I can answer all your questions, but maybe I can help you with a few. Here goes.
#1 I agree that different people should have different powers at the same time of day. If you do this, there should probably be a governing rule. For instance, males and females are divided as…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Glad you liked it. 😀
Just fyi, if you want to tag more than 10 people, you’re supposed to get the permission of a moderator first (me or Rolena). I understand it’s an easy slip though.

@valtmy @supermonkey42 *snorts* Huh. Good luck trying to subdue me. As self-proclaimed Security Chief, I’d love to see you try to rebel against us.
@sam-kowal *whispers* Keep an eye for any suspicious activity. We don’t want them to know what we’re up to.

OH, just one thing typographically related—no typos that I could see, but on the very first page when you say ‘welcome to the better books survey’, it might be more proper to have it Better Books s(S)urvey, unless you don’t really consider that a proper title.

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic The Better Books Survey in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 3 months ago
@Daeus Really cool survey. I’m sure any serious readers to get their paws on it will be glad for a chance to rant. And it’ll be really interesting to analyze the results.

@WarrioroftheRealm The Count of Monte Cristo is a good historical fiction, with lots of intrigue though it’s not exactly political in nature.

I’m launching a new survey called The Better Books Survey that lets readers raise their voice about what they want to see in the books that they read.
If you have a moment, I think you’ll enjoy taking this survey. (And if…[Read more]
