Okay @Daeus— no problem! 😛 How did you do, @bluejay? I got 700 words.

@Daeus— sounds good! 9:30 then?

Perfect @Daeus— I actually was pretty focused. I liked it. 🙂 You wanna keep going?

Perfect @Daeus— I actually was pretty focused. I liked it. 🙂

@Daeus 537 words. 😀

@Daeus— I’m outlining. ‘Til 8:45?

Oh yes sir @Daeus sir, no breathing fire, of course not, sir, what a thing to say sir, why would you think I’d ever do something like that sir? Of course sir, no breathing fire.

Breathing fire. Hm… *goes off rubbing claws— ahem, hands— together, chuckling thoughtfully* Nope, no breathing fire.

Still, though…

That’s an awesome…[Read more]

No @anna-brie, that sounds just about right! 😀

*bows scaly head contritely, snuffs smoking nostrils* I repent me of my caustic tongue, and crave thy pardon, honorable sir, for thy fright. I am ashamed.

Wait @Daeus— you like that book? Wow. I… I’m just… I never would have guessed. 😛

*cracks claw knuckles, shakes out wings, narrows glowing dragon eyes*

Complain, sirrah? Nay, I did but query as to thy meaning, forsooth. I pledge mine honor, if heretofore thy word in question (verily) hath entered into my knowledge I knew it not, nor, methinks, should be held accountable.
Thus I plead my case to thee, sirrah— mind thy…[Read more]

Wow @zoe-wingfeather… I definitely was NOT expecting to get any potential customers at this stage of the book! 😛 I’ll be sure to tell you, though it won’t be published for quite a while…

Yes, @Daeus— Count of Monte Cristo is the perfect example of reusing plot points and characters. It’s so wonderfully complicated! The only thing I might…[Read more]

@Daeus— Verily, saidst thou? Pray, what is this verily of which thou speakest, brother? Methinks thou dost speak of some… some word of olden times, but alas! I have no skill in the understanding of such antiquated languages… thy ‘verily’ hath quite overcome me…

*claps hand over mouth, smothers hysterical snicker*

Sorry, couldn’t resist. 😉

I would just replace ‘on’ with ‘upon’. And the last line of that stanza… I’m not sure which would work better, or if either would work best at all. You might try saying something about a ‘dream’…[Read more]

Hey, glad it was helpful guys! I should just start a topic called ‘mistakes’ and post all the writing mistakes I make in that one. 😉

@Jadamae… well… I’ve got several lined up already, but I’m not about to turn anyone away if they’re interested… 😀 I just hate shoving my work off on other people so I don’t like to ask. 😛 😉

KeePers of the Kingdom? 😉

Grace, peace, and high word counts to you, my brothers! And… er… sisters.

*laughs hysterically*

That’s awesome, @Daeus!

Nope. Didn’t work. I’ll just give you the link. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/341710690457182648/

Love it, @bluejay! Looking at that prompt, I couldn’t decide whether it was a sword on his back or the pipes of a bagpipe. 😛 I ended up not mentioning it at all, and I guess that was fine. 😉

Now let’s see if I can figure out the ‘image’ setting so I can post the picture and you can actually see what I’m talking about. Here goes…
