@Aratrea The 19th won’t work, but the 21st, afternoon or evening would.

Analyzing other stories for theme lessons that you can apply to your own stories is an awesome course of action to take. Since last summer, I’ve kept an excel sheet of all the stories I’ve read/watched and the storytelling applications I can glean from them, and that’s been incredibly helpful in my own journey as a writer.

I’m always thrilled to…[Read more]

@jenali Awesome–thanks for making all that clear. Those look like good foils. I especially like the potential for interplay you have within the antagonists, specifically thinking about Manel and Tekal’s similar views on loyalty. Does Manel take a similar course of action to Tekal (giving gifts) to obtain loyalty, or does he use a different tack?…[Read more]

Thanks for letting me know what works for you all! Sounds like it’s harder to find a good date for everyone this time around. By any chance, would the 19th or the 21st at the same time work any better? If enough people say by Sunday night that one of those times would work better, we’ll do that. Otherwise, we’ll do the 13th or…[Read more]

@jenali Detailing those physical consequences there helps to clarify the poetic justice on that front. Looks good!

@jenali Ah–sorry for not seeing this before! Thanks for the tag. Both of those look great!

@jenali Got it. Thanks for the feedback!

@dragon-snapper Sequel!!

And about @daeus suggestion, there are heaps of Aussies on here – maybe they have their own “exclusive” circle of knights, or a bunch of rebels that they encounter or something *shrugs* Just throwing stuff out there 😀 Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

@dragon-snapper, @jane-maree should be a super stereotypical Australian with neat Aussie way of saying things.

@dragon-snapper I am actually very excited to see how this new short story turns out. 😀

@gideon-sowdon Kind of, I think…… It seems that he’s suggesting that the only type of writing really worth doing is a gig type thing where someone needs sales text and you provide it. …Which is really weird for someone on librivox. The part “as for that other kind of writing: that’s not how it works. Good luck” makes no sense to me, unless…[Read more]

@theliterarycrusader Interesting request. I shall be done, my liege. On the point of confetti, I already have a name for the farm: KeePer Confetti Farms.
@jess I like the disappearing thing. Maybe that’s how Josiah disappears and appears so quickly.
@hope Haha! @michael-stanton If you read the previous story which this entire thread is about,…[Read more]

@audrey-caylin Thanks!

@audrey-caylin Great!

@daeus @winter-rose @that_writer_girl_99 @jess @jane-maree @graciegirl @ethryndal @audrey-caylin I will now proceed to write.

@audrey-caylin True, we are partnered. I guess I’ll go talk to them about it. Thanks for the info about Go Teen Writers.

@Aratrea my future course? Since I’ve already gone through all my next ten ideas and mapped out their themes in excruciating detail, I suppose you mean more futurely than that… um… continue? XD Pick other stories to pieces and keep learning and applying as I do, hopefully.

Seriously. There are no words for how amazing this was. I am…[Read more]
