Oh wow @Hannah-C! You are blessed! That is so awesome! 😀

@kate-flournoy On the other hand, I don’t think most writers like to tell other people they are writers, so there’s probably more out there we just don’t know of.

As for the revision, if you could get it done before next year, I would be impressed.

@Daeus that would be lovely, thank you. It won’t be ready any time soon— possibly not even until next year. It depends on how good I get at this whole rewriting thing in the meantime. 😉

Yes, everyone’s projects sound fascinating. Isn’t it strange to think what a perfectly writer-oriented community we have here? I mean, for my part, I…[Read more]

It’s neat to see what everybody’s doing.

Btw, @kate-flournoy, I can beta-read for the revision if you want.

@kate-flournoy I guess some things needed to be rewritten. I wouldn’t have said the whole book though. I also don’t know much about your series, but I suppose you would know when something needs to be changed to make it fit. So maybe you’re right, but I still suspect you’re being too hard on yourself.

Anyways, have fun. I’ll be having fun with my…[Read more]

@Daeus I am anything but un-extreme. 😉 Fact is, when I wrote that, I had literally zero clue that it wasn’t going to be a standalone book. Now there are ten more books to follow it. So first of all I need to make it so it leads into its sequel, and secondly— well— the whole thing stinks. I know, I know— extreme. But it does. Compared to the…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy A whole rewriting? That sounds kinda extreme. I thought it just needed some plot tweaks here and there and a couple more passes at editing. And of course, I’m always right.

Ok, everything but the last line.

Editing my WIP, and then *takes deep breath* I have finally decided to start rewriting my WIP’s prequel. Which I should have done the moment I finished it two years ago. It needs it. Majorly. 😛
I’m also planning to do a bit of work on a retelling of Snow White called The Mirror— just a novella, but fun nonetheless. @Hope got me hooked on…[Read more]

@gretald heehee… 😉 Thanks for the votes. I’m still wavering on the fence, actually. :/ I’ll figure it out one of these days.

It is fascinating @Hope, I’ll give it that. 😉 One favorite quote (can’t remember who said it) is

‘There’s nothing difficult about writing. You just sit down at a typewriter and bleed.’

As far as I’m concerned, that’s pretty accurate. 😛

*wracks brains for other awesome quotes lurking just beyond reach* I know they’re there somewhere… I’ll…[Read more]

I’ll be starting a semi-dystopian time travel save the world story. I don’t plan to do a whole lot since my main goal is to edit my existing books this year and I’ll have to go through several revisions at least. I think I can get at least five chapters written though. I need to do some more studies on the time period though and study up on my…[Read more]

@bluejay yes, I want to, but unfortunately I can’t. 🙁 Thanks for the invitation though. 😉

@bluejay, love to, but I got stuff to do tonight.

WOW @Daeus, very impressive!

Oh my goodness, what are the odds!? 😛 That is so funny. Like, there are no words for how funny that is. And it’s okay. I think I can imagine the super squeaky voice just fine. 😉

WOW @Daeus, very impressive!

@kate-flournoy I WAS DOING AN AMBUSH TOO!

I said that in a super annoying squeaky voice, but you can’t tell that because the forum messes up the air waves.

Halloooo Peoples! 1,029 edited. That makes about 2,500 for the entire day which I’m happy about. I could edit my book in month at that rate.

@Daeus @bluejay I got 852. *wrinkles nose* Ambushes are fun, but as with any war-scene they take a bit of strategizing. 😛

@bluejay JimbereeO! See you then.

*Dances jig*
