@ellette-giselle sounded like it!

I recognized “ace” from an Australian book series about dogs; the main dog character calls his mate that once or twice when he’s talking about her, implying that she’s the very best. It stands to reason that’d be a British thing too, and it certainly sounds like somethin that’d come out of the WWI time period.

@keilah-h

what?!? google is dumb. lololololol.

That’s OLD British slang. (came about in WWI)

It means “awesome.”

@the_lost-journal

I knew you would say that 😂

What can I say? You know me.

There should be more people named CARROT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe look up words meaning carrot in various languages, that might work.

Where exactly is the link again? I seem to remember it was on an external document or something rather than being posted directly on KP.

@ellette-giselle haha!!

Not as familiar with that one, and google search brought up nothing, but I’m guessing it means that’s good.

@savannah_grace2009 yay!

@keilah-h

yes, actually!!!!!

I think I have a couple more chapters since you last read it!!!

Cracking Ace!

@savannah_grace2009 yep!

Got any more of your story yet?

I haven’t been checking, sorry.

@keilah-h

aw yesss

@ellette-giselle I love it. You can use British and Aussie expressions around me whenever you want!

@savannah_grace2009 yeahh!! it’s always great to have that sense of community.

@whalekeeper

That’s alright, no worries. I get that a lot.

It;s not a bad thing! I love interesting people.

(I hope you didn’t take that wrong. when people say that to me it’s always in a not nice way. Sorry if I came across like that!)

@keilah-h

I feel like I always write the most when I post on KP or when I know people will read it…

It’s so cool to see writers supporting other writers <3

@keilah-h

I love the word cricky, and it was the first thing that came to mind. I was going to substitute it with a more American option, but then realized you would be someone who could appreciate a good British/Australian exclamation, so I left it.

A little if both I would say.

@whalekeeper lol

@ellette-giselle I’m glad.

And I’m over here wondering if your cry of “crikey!” was just the first thing that came to mind or if you specifically chose it cause you thought I’d get a kick out of it.

If the second is the case, your presumption was correct.

If it’s the first and I’m over thinking it, ignore that.

@savannah_grace2009

I also just want to know that people are reading it, because it’s hard to write when you don’t know if people even care or are interested, if that makes sense. When I know people are reading it, it gives me so much more motivation!!

yessss this happens to me too. The I worked on for over half of 2024 and was the first fan…[Read more]

@liberty

Ah, so it is.

I forgot they had the same name! lol.

@whalekeeper

Heeyy Sara, I’m about a third through your story right now! What kind of critique do you want? Any specific concerns, stuff like that?

Ummmm

Let me think lol

I think I’m just worried about pacing, flow of the story, and if it’s at all interesting lol

And character development ideas would be helpful too!!

I also just want to know t…[Read more]
