I love both drawings so much.

Ah, I forgot to respond to your questions on my novel excerpt page… hang on. *flies away* @kate-flournoy

@Christi-eaton You know what? When I saw this, I realized that the girl in your drawing actually looks like a character from my current WIP. I love it! The tattoos on her arm are so unique.

@kate-flournoy Kate. The sketch is AMAZING. Oh my goodness! You are wayyyyy talented! The look in her eyes is spot-on. I can almost sense her shyness and the…[Read more]

Thank you, everyone.

It gives me a joy just to read that. I need to remember it more often. The problem is that I forget my purpose in life, and so any sort of failure seems like a defeat, but really, I’m just here as a tool, so I just need to do my best and God will make it worth while.

You and I are definitely running on the same wavelength h…[Read more]

I’m signing off as well. I didn’t actually do anything but berate myself for not doing anything, but there you go. @jane-maree @audrey-caylin

Hi all. I had a rough day today. Feeling very discouraged. I struggle with low self-confidence and grapple with loneliness. A lot. And struggle with introverted-exhaustion (I’m constantly around people) and a bit of depression as well.

All in all, I’m very overwhelmed at the moment, so I could use some prayer. I feel like God is calling me to…[Read more]

*pauses* *thinks for a moment* In all honesty, I think all the different terms and elements (no pun intended) being thrown around is really distracting me. Can we talk about plot? And character arcs? But relating to Kara and no one else?

I’m very, very overwhelmed right now. By everything you’re saying…by my complete lack of knowledge on this…[Read more]

Howdy. @jane-maree @audrey-caylin

It’s…a little vague, to be honest. I feel like I’m slowly falling into a sea of ideas and forgetting how to swim in the process. @kate-flournoy

I’m a little daunted by the fact that I have absolutely no ideas when it comes to the actual plot. Like, I get that plotting the MC’s character arc, and the ones that come alongside it, are important,…[Read more]

Er, anyone on? I’ll be writing for the next half hour or so.

@kate-flournoy Do you think you could draw Kara?

Hang on–if we’re the same age, that means you’re graduating this year too, right? @kate-flournoy

That makes sense. I really struggle with outlining, honestly, but I think I’m getting better.
Can we talk about that, actually? I can’t figure out how I want the story to end, which means I don’t know what needs to happen in the middle…

That’s awesome! I prefer sheet music to tabs, too, although playing tabs is still fun. @dragon-snapper

@dragon-snapper You play guitar too? Awesome! How many years have you been playing?

Also, don’t feel bad–I primarily use sheet music too, although I can play tabs if needed.

@clairec Thanks for making this!

@kate-flournoy To answer your original question, I have several years of vocal training–a mixture of singing lessons, different choirs over the years, and me testing my voice. I’m a second soprano, but I can drop down to alto as needed. I love testing my voice.

Thanks. @kate-flournoy

So…how does one go about planning/outlining an arc like this?

@kate-flournoy Yeah, the 99 in my user-tag stands for 1999. I was born on February 26th, though.

I’m signing off! Planned a little and wrote down some questions to ask Kate tomorrow…

Sweet. I’m not alone! @jess

Now to figure out the notes @kate-flournoy left for me…

Congrats@ @daeus

Bye…*cries*

@jess @daeus Are y’all still on?
