She’s two steps ahead of you, @aratrea

Hello @rjk !! Very nice to meet ya. I’m Elizabeth, and I don’t know what I contribute to the forum except for talking a lot and occasionally turning into a dragon… (that’s a joke you’ll understand later) but I’m here, a lot, and always willing to talk if you need a writing buddy or moral support. *grins*…[Read more]

Sounds to me like you need to worldbuild a bit. Build a government, build the landscape, build the people that operate within the government. Once you’ve done that, you can create characters that live inside that world, that government, and then you can create their ideals, their views, their beliefs…

I feel like @daeus or @aratrea would have…[Read more]

Hm, hm, hm… This can be tricky.

I’ll use my current WIP as an example. See, back when Prison was just a tiny whisper of an idea, I had my main character, Kara, wandering around a random, nameless city, on the run from a random, nameless group of government affiliated guards. Probably. See, a lot of the details were weakly tied together, and…[Read more]

@perfectfifths “Y’all” is more of a southern thing, not everyone in the States uses it. But I do. A lot.

Okay, but who… *sighs* *hangs head and decides to submit to her lack of LOTR knowledge* @ethryndal

I’m confused. What’s going on in that gif? @ethryndal

My sincerest apologies. @dragon-snapper

*grins* Of course, dear! Who else will write alongside me after all these crazies go to bed? We might-owls must stick together–although I suppose it isn’t really night on your end… @jane-maree

*snorts* Please post something about that on your blog. @ethryndal

@Kate-Flournoy Help, I need motivation.

I just thought you all should know that in a recent conversation with my mother, you all were referred to as “my little Kapeefer friends”… @aratrea @kate-Flournoy @graciegirl @ethryndal @jane-maree @christi-eaton

*winces* well then.

Signing off.

Cool beans. @jane-maree @cloudy

@jane-maree @cloudy I’ll be here for 15-30min, y’all still here?

@Allison-grace Just a heads up, Josiah’s tag is actually @aratrea –if you look at his profile, you can find his tag. The same’s true for me– my tag is @that_writer_girl_99 (quite a mouthful, I know) but my username is just Elizabeth. Kinda confusing, but that’s how it works.

@kate-Flournoy Funny, kinda felt like I was the only one struggling with this very question…

*chokes* Okay @winter-rose I think I’m definitely with Kate on this one. I can’t take breaks either, try as I might. But you’ve gotta do whatever you feel comfortable with, in the end. The only advice I can give to you, if you choose not to take a…[Read more]
