Excellent point. @daeus

Ugh. I’m trying to write, but my brain is full of ideas and I can’t quite make sense of them all. Kate, dear, are you on? @kate-flournoy

I thought you’d come back already. No apparating inside of Kingdom Pen, @Daeus !

I LOVE IT. @kate-flournoy

Aw…poor @daeus …feeling left out, are we?

The wonderful @kate-flournoy has graced the Writing Corner with her presence! *cue applause*

Of course, Kate. Anything for my favorite Force-wielding telepathic dragon.

Wow. *jaw drops* Is that a snippet from your WIP? @kate-flournoy

Alright. @daeus

Me too. @daeus

Boom. Kate wisdom. Love it. @kate-flournoy

*looks over your shoulder* Where can I buy one of those guides? @graciegirl

On a side note, I’ve decided to start calling you Jedi-Master Kate. @kate-flournoy

Not really.

I…*sighs* Have you ever seen the animated TV show “Avatar: The Last Airbender”? The “bending” on that show is based off of four different forms of Chinese martial arts. That’s how I’m picturing the Elemental powers–what they’ll be like–will be used.
Kara uses fire as an extension of her body. It’s a part of her she can’t even…[Read more]

Is it bad if I know who my “ONE character” is, even though he hasn’t entered the story yet? @graciegirl

Also, their conversation would be a great way to say a lot of things about the way things really are in the prison by not saying them. Good dialogue illuminates what people are not saying, I’ve heard it said, and I agree. There’s more in what’s not said than what is.

Huh. Good point, but…things like what? @kate-flournoy Also, thank you for s…[Read more]

Kate, I’m popping over to the novel excerpt forum to read your reply. I had work this morning, so I couldn’t answer when you commented. @kate-flournoy

I’d be careful if I were you. If Kate’s character is anything like her maker, she’ll be mischievous… @graciegirl

Praying! I know it can be hard. My mom struggles with the same thing, and I get what you mean about feeling like you aren’t able to help her in any way. But Gracie, trust me, prayer is powerful. More so than you can know! @graciegirl

Yeah. *places fire extinguisher beside laptop in case of sudden combustion*

Okay. I like that. I definitely think that idea deepens Matthias’ purpose.

Alright, so…Kara is walking back to her cell. All of the other Elementals are supposed to be in their own cells, which means that Matthias talking to one of the guards would be very…[Read more]

Telepathy. A favorite ability of mine. To write, I mean. Not that I’m…actually telepathic. @kate-flournoy

Uh. Okay. At this point…I’m planning on just doing Kara’s POV. I don’t think I can manage to incorporate a theme into my story, balance multiple characters, plot out different arcs, and switch POVs. That’s too much. This story holds a lot…[Read more]

That’s too much. This story holds a lot of firsts for me, and I don’t want to overwhelm myself.…[Read more]
