You’re welcome, @sarah-h ! 🙂

That makes sense, @hannah-krynicki . Bossy bacon! 😉

I wasn’t confused by that, @daeus . It seemed to me (all things considered 😉 ) that things were going rather well, but if you thought it was contradicting itself then perhaps it was meant as hyperbole?

I don’t know, @sarah-h . Maybe you could tell the story…[Read more]

Hey, @hislittlerose , if you still want to join in, you can read the pdf of the book here. (Sounds like you’re too busy, but in case you get a chance and want to read it:)

Hey guys,

So I finally stopped procrastinating and began reading the book!

I do like how (I think @hope mentioned this?) the story is more told rather than shown. While I enjoy both styles when done well, this makes for a more comfy, relaxed read, which was just what I was in the mood for.

First of all, I’m glad Orwell didn’t make the…[Read more]

Say, whatever you do, guys, please don’t ever get caught in the 3 letter name trap with your characters like the new Star Wars movie did. (It has a name, but I refuse to use it until I have to;) It drives me absolutely bananas!

Seriously, Rey, Maz, BB8, Ben, Hux, Poe, Ren, Han, (not that I’m complaining about his name, but I mentioned it just…[Read more]

Thanks, @kate-flournoy , I will. 🙂

Hey guys,

I came across this while I was going through some of my old writings. At the time I wrote it I didn’t think it was a poem, but now I’m not so sure. What do y’all think? (Warning: Unedited version. Punctuation is basically nil;)

Thank you Lord for the bad days
When it doesn’t just rain, but it pours
When I feel trapped and…[Read more]

Cool beans! Thanks, @daeus 🙂

Hello! I have nearly no idea whatsoever what y’all are talking about, but somebody invited me over here, so … I thought I would investigate. Are we actually discussing endings?

If we are, maybe it would be fun if everybody named a book whose ending made them mad?

I’ll go first: Wives and Daughters by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell. It’s no…[Read more]

Hey, guys! Sorry I’m late! (Better late than never I hope 😉 ) So I just have one question (ish) @daeus , before I get started discussing, and that is: How fast are we supposed to be reading the book? Are we on chapter 2, 4 … or does it even matter? I just want to be sure we’re all on the same page. (No pun intended 😉 )

The rain … it had fallen endlessly at an angle, for … how long? Had it ever begun? Would it ever end? She might be tied to a chair, in a cinderblock, windowless room, with a hairy fur carpet that smelled funny and could have been genuine Wookie, but she could still hear the rain.

The metal screech of hinges announced the arrival of a…[Read more]
