And I like that name: Ira Netzen

@Kate-Flournoy Yay!!! Oh, but how could dear, sweet little Evaleen possibly be a villain?! 😛
Actually, I can see it. I have what you might call a love-hate relationship with that girl. *glares at manuscript* 😉 We all have the ONE character that drives us bonkers.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I shall be wary. ;P

@Ethryndal Thank you so much!

@Emma-Flournoy Thanks. Yes, moms are the best, for sure!

@That_Writer_Girl_99 @Kate-Flournoy Thank you, guys. 🙂

Hi, guys. I’d like to put in a prayer request for my mother. The past two months or so have been really rough for her on an emotional level, and the stress of homeschooling three kids in the middle-school to high-school range isn’t helping. If you could pray for God to give her peace and strength it would mean so much. And for me as well. I am…[Read more]

@stewie-plotter I’d be down for that.

Welcome to the site, @lady_erin! Glad you found us. 🙂 Are you working on any stories at the moment? If so, what’s the premise?

Then she sees the young writers tumbling in slow motion from the roof. She whips her rope out from under her arm and throws it expertly up to the tower. It wraps around the spire, and she tugs. It holds.
“Grab on!” she yells to the other young troll-thingys. Miraculously they each grab the rope in mid air and slide safely to the ground.…[Read more]

A young lady leaps off the roof of the train, sweeping her wine colored cape behind her. She rolls and rises from the ground gracefully, sweeping off her plumed cap and extending her hand. Then she realizes no one is there. So she takes off at a run for the volleyball court.
“Hello, greetings, salutations, whatever spanish for hello is, and my…[Read more]

@lola-jane No problem. 🙂 Haha, makes sense!

@Elly A lot of Veritas Press’ stuff actually. My homeschool education was basically 90% VP recommendations, so my mom rotated through a bunch of their different Latin recommendations before I eventually moved onto Wheelocks with their online academy, and that worked out really well for me.

@lola-jane Haha, no worries. 😉 Is the protagonist a mermaid, or is this an advanced society where humans can live underwater?

Also, FYI, tags rely on usernames, and while most people here have the same usernames as their profile names, a couple of us are weird and don’t. =P If you go to someone’s profile, you’ll be able to see their username so…[Read more]

@elly Haha, got ya. xD I took Latin from I think 3rd grade through 10th grade… My first six years were very similar to yours, though! Wasn’t until 8th grade that I got a teacher besides my mom (who is awesome, but doesn’t really know Latin), and that was extremely helpful for my learning. All that being said, six years later, I’ve lost most of…[Read more]

Welcome @lola-jane! Glad you found us. What’s the premise of your current work-in-progress?

@elly Always nice to see classical references on the site. 😉 How many years of Latin have you taken? Fellow Plato-lovers are also awesome, though I waver between Plato and Aristotle in terms of who I agree with more. Anyways, welcome to the site!

Hello, @Elly! We have sort of met (and by sort of I mean the volleyball court), but we should be properly introduced. I am Anne Swiftblade, the often quiet pirate of the Kingdom. See you on the court!

Hello @lola-jane! My name’s really Sarah, but I’m known as Anne Swiftblade in the Kingdom. Welcome 🙂

Anne gasps as she watches the writers plunge through the air. She covers her eyes afraid to watch, but peeks through her fingers, unable to look away.
