@dragon-snapper That’s super exciting! 😀 Another friend of mine recently self-published a book of poems through Amazon as well.
I have a couple of questions before I possibly say yes:
1. What exactly are you looking for with the beta reading? Feedback, obviously, but are you also wanting things like grammar/spell-check and general editing? I…[Read more] -
Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic So I finally started a website. Feedback and suggestions welcome. in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 2 months ago
Ahh… I recognize this theme! Played with it a fair bit myself before switching to a different theme for my website.
I’ll second everyone saying that the heading letters are difficult to read. At the very least, I would make them larger. I’m not sure any color would show up well, against that background, so you may want to…[Read more]

Aaaand I know it’s just getting exciting but now I have to go to bed. Good night! Sleep tight! You can do this; keep asking questions. 😉

Oooooh! That could be… ooh wow. That could be powerful in a lot of different ways.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 ooh, good. And what happens if he… say… refuses?

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Brainstorming Zone in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 2 months ago
Good questions. I don’t feel like Kara herself has the drive to initiate anything at this point, but she could certainly blow up if anyone who does know anything at all lets more than is quite prudent slip… does she get mad at Blake for not taking the opportunity of being alone with the Warden to ask about Tam?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 that is a logical think. *nods* Where does she begin?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 good; you’re learning about yourself and how to hijack your creative functions. 😛
That’s a great question. Did you have any ideas? -

@dragon-snapper Really nice on both of them. The second one has a strong folky feel if that’s what you want, but I personally like the first one better.

@perfectfifths Not too late! 😀
I do have music for each. The first one is a bit slower than the second. I do plan to record them, I just have to get a half-decent mic. 😀Thanks for your input everyone! I do think I’ll be going with the first one, with the addition of a few edits to make it more organized, and straightforward. Also, good input…[Read more]

@hope @jane-maree Don’t worry, guys. I totally understand saying no. No is probably a more important word that yes is, don’t you think? 😀
Although, I will tag a few others…

@dragon-snapper Congratulationssssssssssssss! Unfortunately, I don’t have the time for beta reading. 🙁 Too much to do, too little time. But I wish you all the best and if you have questions about the publication process itself, I’d be happy to help. 🙂

@Aratrea The advantage of a follow button is that you’ll get followers that way who aren’t otherwise committed enough to actually sign up to a newsletter. Depending settings, they will automatically get an email when you post something and your post will show up in their reader feed. I know there are a number of blogs I follow because it just…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Maybe… How long is it?

Louise Fowler replied to the topic Songwriting Competition in the forum Music 9 years, 2 months ago
@dragon-snapper Sorry for a late reply! I like both songs, but I think I like the second one more. Do you have music to put to it, or is that not a part of it? I haven’t actually written a song myself (meaning, I haven’t written a decent song. I used to write songs a lot when I was little) but I would love to, and I think it’s great that you’re…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper dahhhh!!! CONGRATULATIONS AUGH I’M SO EXCITED FOR YOU HOORAY FOR CADET SNAPPER AND THE VALIANT FIRST ASSAULT!
I… would love to do this for you, except I’ve promised myself not to take on any more projects until I get two or three of my others wrapped up. 🙁 If it’s still up for beta-reading once that happens, I might be able…[Read more]

Yes.
Fellow Kapeefers…
The time has come.
The time has come for me to ask you for help.
But not in a melancholy sense.
This is good news.
I’m getting published.
Mmmhhmm.
My very boring sentences are my way of trying to contain myself.
Anyways….I am self-publishing a book of poetry on Amazon, and I need you all to help me! I need…[Read more] -
