@Daeus me.

@devastate-lasting super cool! Thanks for tagging me @Daeus.

The primary reason I use notebooks is so I can have something to jot notes in when I’m not at my computer, but this looks like an awesome program for organizing stuff, which I need lots of help with, 😛 so I’m going to check it out!

@Sam-Kowal perfect. 😀

@Sam-Kowal ooh I really like it! Super cool concept. I think I’d definitely pick it up and read it.

On a more writerly note, the synopsis itself is well written, but it does seem a little choppy in places. It may simply be a case of too many fragments. Also, this is bugging me a little and it’s probably just me. But the voice is inconsistent……[Read more]

@Bella-D *salutes* Happy to be of service! 🙂

@Bella-D it would appear I have been summoned. Thank you @daeus.  🙂

Let me see… there are a number of potential answers to this question. The one that ended up being the answer for me isn’t so much about changing the side of the character that is reserved, brooding, and unresponsive, but about developing a second side to balance it— the one…[Read more]

@Sam-Kowal I know! Crazy. I love it. 😛
