Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Novel Excerpt (Feedback Welcome) in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 4 months ago
@That_Writer_Girl_99 well, any backstory you might want to fill in. Hints at the Warden’s involvement with the Elementals. (Which could also double as foreshadowing). Stories about the Catastrophes… little pieces of silence to fill in the things that Matthias knows, as a spy of the Warden, but isn’t allowed to tell the others. Just to deepen the…[Read more]

@I-J-Anderson It is beyond me how anyone can be so stinkin’ good. WOW. Your talent is unbelievable.

@Graciegirl Oh yes, I shall certainly pray for her. Moms have a hard enough time as it is, with out additional stress to make things worse. And I’ll be praying for you too; I know what it’s like to watch your mom struggle, and have to stand on the sidelines, unable to do anything to help.

@GracieGirl Oh, definitely. I’ll be praying. Aren’t moms amazing though?!

@GracieGirl NO! MINE. *snatches and glares*
XD Okay… I guess… *reluctantly gives her to you* Take care of her though… and if she acts weird on and off, don’t worry, because for me she’s a villain. :’D

@GracieGirl ah, yes. Homeschooling, as wonderful as it is, can definitely be stressful at times. I’ll be praying. 🙂

The nose too. If you’re brave enough to snarl at yourself in a mirror, notice how the nose humps in the middle and wrinkles at the bridge.

@Alia *chokes* Erm… haha… XD Well, don’t be afraid to draw it crooked and off center. Sometimes the impression is more important than accuracy. Also don’t overdraw the mouth— a few well-placed lines are better than the whole outline, which can sometimes look static and lifeless. As for snarls in particular… quick hint. More than half of a…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 she could approach Matthias about it… but it would be better, I think, if you did end up having the sparring scene, and as she’s walking in she overhears something, and then tries to get the info out of him while they’re sparring. His continued avoidance will only heighten her curiosity, giving you a great opportunity to get…[Read more]

I just realized I butchered that title. You know you’re a pathetic creature when you can’t even remember the title of your own blog post that you just looked at five minutes ago. XD

@Alia *nods* Yeah, I’ve read that, it was pretty good. XD
@That_writer_girl_99 But deep down inside, aren’t we all just a little afraid of Kate’s dragon breathe?

*rushes in late* Story? What story? OH, that story. Ahem. Yes. Here you go. @Daeus @That_writer_girl_99 And I’ll tag @Kate-Flournoy just in case.

@stewie-plotter I’d be down for that.

Welcome to the site, @lady_erin! Glad you found us. 🙂 Are you working on any stories at the moment? If so, what’s the premise?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 okay. That’s fine. It’s good to know your limits. We don’t want you burning out. 😉
Wellll… since you want to stick to Kara’s pov, maybe she could overhear some guards talking about what happened? Or perhaps she hears Matthias talking to a guard, receiving or giving a message from/to the Warden. This gives her suspicions…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 again, my apologies… *clears throat meekly* Telepathic dragon in the making here; I was practicing and got it wrong. *mysterious wink*
Moving on now.
No, you’re right. That’s not enough to drive an entire chapter. Unless something important happens in the sparring room, I would say cut it entirely. Writing is about change,…[Read more]

Anne of Lothlorien replied to the topic Introduce Yourself (AND VOLLEYBALL!!!) in the forum Stewards of the Pen 9 years, 4 months ago
Then she sees the young writers tumbling in slow motion from the roof. She whips her rope out from under her arm and throws it expertly up to the tower. It wraps around the spire, and she tugs. It holds.
“Grab on!” she yells to the other young troll-thingys. Miraculously they each grab the rope in mid air and slide safely to the ground.…[Read more] -

A young lady leaps off the roof of the train, sweeping her wine colored cape behind her. She rolls and rises from the ground gracefully, sweeping off her plumed cap and extending her hand. Then she realizes no one is there. So she takes off at a run for the volleyball court.
“Hello, greetings, salutations, whatever spanish for hello is, and my…[Read more] -
