Thanks for the links! I’ll definitely check them out!

@livgiordano

They’d probably be great friends. XD

Thanks! I’ll check it out.

Wish me luck, as I’ve got to have *something* ready for him tomorrow…

@Sam-Kowal

Don’t even talk to me about that chapter.

I’m still in feels denial.

XD

@sage-g  Since SeekJustice commented, I might as well comment, too:

Your sister is AMAZING! WOW! If I ever get around to those illogical children’s books that I started when I was thirteen, I am SO asking her to illustrate them!

@daughteroftheking  @ingridrd  I love those names!!!!!

@rochellaine  *talking to self* She likes Adric…. SHE LIKES ADRIC!!!!!!!!! Sorry, Adric is a Dr Who character’s name, and you know how we Whovians are……..

@rochellaine  Great idea!!!  I have a few…

Girls: Lenna, Mern, Andraya

Boys: Den, Boren, Remiro (rem-EAR-oh)

Kinda weird, but…*shrugs*.

@skredder  *starts chanting* Write it, write it, write it, write it…!  This has the makings of a brilliant story.  🙂

…….That was weird……..

TAKE TWO! *claps clapperboard*

Thanks @rochellaine!  I might actually use some of those for my novella! (assuming I ever get back to it……)

Anyway, can I drop in some names, too?

Girls (I got these from a book, mostly)

• Airow
• Aine
• Altair
• Ashe
• Vekka
• Cleo
• Dae

@aratrea  Yep, @rochellaine is right! Outside of the topic, before Rochellaine posted, it SAID I posted recently, but my post is gone!

Spam?! Hmmm, that makes sense, actually. It’s happened about three times, and all of those times, I remember that the posts were pretty long. This one was long, too.

If it helps, here is another place where it…[Read more]

@gh24682468999 I don’t recommend making your story short just to write a short story. Make the story as long as it should be. A story should be short when the concept, plot, etc are simple enough that a short story is all that is needed; a story should be long when the concept, plot, etc need more room to flourish.

Setting is important for any…[Read more]

@gh24682468999

Heh. You tagged me.

Welp, writing short stories is actually really difficult for me. The only thing harder than writing a short story for me is coming up with a character’s name. XD

But I’ll give you what advice I can from the few successful times I’ve written or read short stories.

So, if you do have a big story world, don’t…[Read more]

@waterlily  This does sound like a neat concept! The only thing that doesn’t quite make sense to me is how the seawyrms could have her family crest marked on them? Am I just misunderstanding? Of course, when you go to write this you can definitely explain in better detail. XD

@dekreel That sounds frustrating–sorry you’ve been running into that! Is there a recent forum thread you can point us to where you’ve had this issue? I’m wondering if for some reason the forum software thinks your comments are spam and is trying to remove them from public view.

Hello?? Anyone home? I’m writing for a while If anyone wants to join me. @seekjustice, @dragon-snapper

@seekjustice, not sure how I missed the notif for your last comment, but yes, I’m homeschooling. 🙂 You too?

@itisastarrynight  Here you go! I hope you don’t mind manga 🙂

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

@livgiordano I second what some other people said that I don’t think you can fully do this without mentioning Christ. That being said, I don’t think you need to fully explore a theme or provide a full message within a short story. As long as you explore several true aspects of the theme & message and are pointing readers in the right direction, I…[Read more]

@warrenluther04 I’d like to try Cole Avis.
