You’re welcome, @belegteleri ! I hope your projects work out. 🙂
I second that! Y’all are the best! 😀Awesome, @daeus . I’m not doing much writing yet myself. I still have a lot of note organizing and a little more plotting involved, but I’m trying to do a little writing in between. It helps keep the inspiration rolling at any rate.

My writing goals for this Summer are to get a jumpstart on my fantasy novel’s first draft, work on my poetry, finish a short story about a park fountain, and maybe even write a few book reviews. @hannah-c 🙂

Brave goals, @hannah-c ! You go for it. 🙂
@daeus , did you say, “semi-dystopian time travel save the world story.” because, you had me at “time travel,” and possibly even at “semi-dystopian.” Please write it now! 😀 (Warning: That is my crazy excited face, a good sign you should take a break from this forum and ignore all of my future tags if…[Read more]

Where do y’all go for dragon inspiration?
I went to the library yesterday and loaded up on books with pictures of crocodiles, snakes, birds, etc., to help me draw my own dragon for the book I’m (supposed to be) writing. I already had some features I liked, eyes, basic snout structure, and nostrils, (that I came up with by drawing from my…[Read more]

That’s cool, @hannah-c . 🙂
The challenge starts today! Which reminds me … I wasn’t sure whether to create a separate club for Summer project stuff, so I did it anyway. Should be fun! 🙂

Hey, @hannah-c , do you want to continue our conversation from Writer’s Corner here? I’m worried we might get on the nerves of the more serious-minded writers on that forum topic, but I want to ask your what the age group for your story is … 😉

You’re welcome, @hannah-c . 🙂
I really don’t know … not super young, but old people are welcome to read it too. 😉 I think I’ll evaluate it once I’ve got a first draft complete. I’ve already figured out the style, (through prewriting) which is sorta humorous and quirky. I think really young kids wouldn’t get all of the humor, and might…[Read more]

For me, what makes a story re-readable is the right combination of humor, allegory, description, friendship, terrific characters, action, satire, wit, adversity, and a good cause or purpose … whatever Chuck Black’s Kingdom Series has. I have re-read, re-read, and re-read those over the years, and the story only gets better with time.
