I believe both @michael-stanton and myself graduated from college this year. 😀 The biggest thing I learned during my time at college wasn’t related to academics at all but was on the more personal level of what it means to live with a focus on pleasing God rather than other people around me. Still have a bunch I need to learn on that front, but…[Read more]

Hurray! I cannot tell you how happy I am that summer is almost here. *starts dancing*
I will be entering 10th grade in the fall…kinda scary.
Yes, congratulations to all seniors! Go forth and conquer! The world awaits your awesomeness! 😉

I’ll be writing for a bit.
@daeus @that_writer_girl_99 @ethryndal @kate-flournoy @jess

@that_writer_girl_99 @graciegirl I’m headed out now. I edited 2 and 1/2 pages. Thanks all!

@dragon-snapper gotta go! Happy writing!

@graciegirl Hello! 😛 Glad you like it; when @jane-maree mentioned math, I couldn’t help but think of it.

@jane-maree Good luck!

@that_writer_Girl_99 @jane-maree @daeus @jess @jenali @winter-rose @ethryndal @graciegirl @northerner I’ll be editing, and I may do a little bit of brainstorming and or writing….I’ll be doing something. 😛

@bethanysinkyroses I’ll second what Daeus said about the importance of characters who journey from darkness to light. I’ll also say that I dislike the current trend in fiction where parents are incompetent and merely obstacles in the protagonist’s path. =P

That being said, I don’t think writing perfect parents is a good solution to that problem…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy The question is whether you prefer Rogue One or The Force Awakens?
Has anyone seen The Secret Life of Walter Mitty?

@daeus Thanks! Just wanted to make sure.

*glares over consolation ice cream as she licks it* Consider me teased. I am very much teased.

@northerner Yes–it will be recorded. 🙂 We’ll be sending out a link sometime after the webinar Monday or Tuesday.

The normal price of Theme Mastery will /probably/ be $147 (we’re still ironing down the details), but we’ll be running a sale where it’s only $97 for the first week of its release.

I’ll second Woodland Quill and Helping Writers Become Authors. Storymonger is also good and is run by a guy who used to write for KP 4-5 years back, but the site is no longer being updated so you’ll need to read the archives: http://thestorymonger.com/ Similar thing with Bryan Davis’ website; he’s still posting critiques, but to get his writing…[Read more]

@jess @graciegirl @daeus @winter-rose @jenali @that_writer_girl_99 @northerner @ethryndal I’ll be editing.

@winter-rose I can’t actually figure out why I didn’t feel a connection. =P Her thoughts seemed to be a bit generic at times, but it also may just be that some characters don’t click for everyone, and this was just a case where the protagonist didn’t click for me. So I don’t know if it’s necessarily the fault of the book.

@winter-rose I never felt emotionally invested in the protagonist, so the book didn’t move me as much as it did for other people here. :/ That being said, the book didn’t annoy me, and given that most dystopia books and most Christian fiction books annoy me, that caused this book to stand out. I also appreciated Brandes’ gutsiness in making Parvin…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy

‘Hey, why are you cleaning the fridge?’
Bob slapped his soaking rag down on the floor of the fridge, twisted his head, and glared up at her over his shoulder.
She gave a little grin and shrugged. ‘All right…’

Nuts. Now I want to write a story completely based off of that.

@Jess Alrighty, see ya!

@jess I’m here! I have an email I have to get sent out today, so I will be working on that. 🙂
