So…was there anything that people didn’t like about this story? (And I’m ready for whatever people have to say!!! 😛 )

BlueJay replied to the topic Boiled Potatoes from Blue Sky in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 8 months ago
Probably. Still, I think it would be nice. 🙂 Maybe just not as a book.

A world where everything is perfect. *Sigh* That would be nice.
Rather boring, think you not? 😛

A waterfall that wants to settle down and become a quiet lake.
Love it @hope.
A dragon who needs glasses.
A spy who likes playing with paper clips.
A baby who can speak from the moment he/she is born. (Not my idea. I read a story like that once and it was brilliant)

@hope Do I need to become a member to post comments on your blog? It looks great, BTW. And is it only Americans allowed to do the Captions Challenges or are overseas people welcome too? (That is what I’m most interested in.) 🙂 Keep up the great work!

Oh perfect, @bluejay, perfect! 😛
@Daeus— great. 🙂 😉 🙂 😉 🙂 😉 🙂 😉 😛 😉
And thank you, @writefury, @hope, and @bluejay. All of those are very good suggestions. And I do that too, @hope— the contradictions thing. 🙂 I didn’t use to do it as much, but now I do, and it’s crazy fun. -

There you go @daeus. That is the best I can do for an upside-down-tongue-out-emoji

@kate-flournoy. I find I ask myself (when I’m writing about girls) “what would I do in this situation?” Anna (Anna’s Savanna) and Tess (Princess Tess and the Perfect Story) are based on my views and opinions, and yet I still don’t feel like they are me.

w/o any good knowledge on this, I will proceed to ramble – not because I have stuff to say, but because I am wondering what I’ll say. I’m not sure. Maybe I’ll learn something from myself and then I’ll know it betterer.
I cannot tell you how many times I have done that. 😛
That test thing idea is a very good one— I may have to try that. Hm.…[Read more]

Okay, so this is a kinda dumb problem for a GIRL to be having, but I really struggle sometimes to give my female protagonists distinct personalities without either making them too weak and helpless or too strong and overbearing.
