Oh, no! @Hope used the only excuse I could think of. *racks brain for any more ideas* *isn’t able to think of one* *stares at floor with hands clasped* Ummm…hi.

I’m late.

Welcome, @ethryndal. When I grow up, I’m gonna be an elf…just like you! Seriously though, you sound like a pretty awesome person. Can’t wait to get to know you better.…[Read more]

You know you’re a writer when cleaning your room turns into a battle scene.

@dragon-snapper I have a bottle of fairie dust, and a bottle of poison. Green dyed water.

I read a story called Yellow Star about a Jewish girl during WWI and it was amazing how the author followed her thought process from a five year old’s persepctive of not udnerstanding the war, or what was ahppening, to a tween who was starting to understnd all the terror and horror. You should read it @kate-flournoy. I have to go too, that’s why…[Read more]

I’ve been thinking about it, and it’s amazing that we even have a thread like this if you think about it. And that we’re actually asking for prayer on the internet and praying for eachother. I thought about it because a few years ago I looked up a ‘Christian’ teen writing website to possibly join and I was absolutely appalled! They had terrible…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien Yeah, that says a lot.

You know you’re a writer when you have a bottle of pixie dust. (AKA sparkles in a plastic bottle)

@anne-of-lothlorien His name is Thranduil, but I probably just made you faint at the sound of Legolas’s dad. Unfortunately, I don’t know elvish, though I have taught myself ancient dwarvish. It’s quite nice to write notes to myself when I don’t want anyone else to read it. 😛

@dragon-snapper Um… maybe the fact that you think you’re a dragon? That might be a sign. Or the fact that you write. That’s a biggy too.

You know you’re a writer when you think about everything you like or love in the terms of ‘How can I put this in my latest book?’

@dragon-snapper That’s true about being innocent because they don’t know about the bad things yet. I noticed when adults are worried or sad, little children seem to notice it, and it worries them. Think of all the movies where the parent gets a message saying their spouse has died. The little kid climbs in the paretns lap and says in an adorable…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien Mhmm, definitely a writer. (I don’t know what makes me a writer yet…) 🙁

@ethryndal Yah, Legolas found me in wandering in the woods after I discovered the way to reach Middle Earth. I was babbling about how awesome he is, and how awesome Elves were, and how awesome Lothlorien is, and stuff like that so he offered to take me in and teach me how to live like an elf. He’s even going to show me how to defy gravity by…[Read more]

@anne-of-lothlorien I’ve noticed that little kids are cute as well as bundles full of energy. They don’t easily get mad or sad, and are always giving people the strangest things.
When I write little people, they usually end up making people realize what they want, or bringing up painful things that need to be brought up, and yet they are…[Read more]

@anna-brie

@jess Are you kidding me? That’s your search engine? One time I had ‘What is the most tasteless poison in the world?’ ‘Where the the world’s most venomous snake live?’ and ‘how long does it take to recover from an arrow shot to the left shoulder?’

@emma-flournoy I think we all know you’ve already lost it. We all have.
I have read the book, all of them, and the Hobbit. I wanted to…do something terrible to Tolkien too. I hated their deaths, but yes, they were better in the books. More honorable. But that still didn’t stop me from crying for twenty minutes at his heart-wrenching pounding…[Read more]

Yes I realize I just tagged myself #mindofaforgetfulwriter

You know you’re a writer when you’re so distracted planning a plot twist that you unwrap a Starburst, put the candy in the trash and the wrapper in your mouth. Then you spit it out and make a disgusted face, then morph into making faces that your MC could make when he’s poisoned.

You know you’re a easily distracted writer when you start out…[Read more]

Thanks for the input on titles. I think I will do Fourth Rule, etc. without the ‘the’ Sorry @the-bean. It’s a tough life.

23,316 words!!!!! I’m so happy! But I’m still behind. Guess who tried to write at eleven o clock at night and woke up on the couch?
