@Winter-Rose Well, the Emotions Thesaurus is my favorite, but you already have it so kudos to you. Positive Traits one is pretty awesome as well, particularly for developing the nitty-gritty details of a character.

@Mariposa This is just as great the second time as it was when I first saw it. I love how loyal we Keepers are. It’s like this downward spiral of corruption; once you become a Kapeefer, it will affect your life forevermore, and your family will be officially convinced that you’re crazy. It’s beautiful.

@Winter-Rose Well I basically agree with everything they’ve already said, so… yeah. *thumbs up* In all honesty, I seriously want to read this story. It sounds hilarious.

Only complaint is this:

But when the prodigy is anonymously–and specifically–requested to protect Amy Slate, the only daughter of a wealthy family of Telir, he is forced to tak…

@dekreel It’s pretty cool, though I haven’t done anything with group boards yet. #plansforthisweek 🙂

@daeus  Congrats! That’s some great advice 🙂  How are you liking Pinterest so far?

Okay, I actually did this thing. 😀 I’m now on Pinterest posting writing tips.

Hmm. I don’t know who would be interested in this. Here are some random tags. 🙂

@emily-d  *pursues* *growls ferociously*  …Just kidding ;P  I see what you’re saying about the weirdness and stuff. Personally, I like it because of the action, and because it was interesting seeing what Meg was learning.

I hear there’s a new movie coming out, so maybe that one will be better. Although, it’s a Disney movie, so… I don’t kn…[Read more]

@emily-d  I got through like a third of the book before I… got bored of it. It’s intriguing, and very well-written, but there’s barely any action, just talking. And talking. And talking. Is suppose if I read the rest of it I would change my mind…… But it’s been awhile, and I think I’d have to start over at the very beginning.

So…[Read more]

@inkling-for-christ

Yeah, what @sam-kowal said. 😛

All KeePers and Kapeefers alike, I can also seriously recommend this course. Click it. Sign up. Do the thing.

@Winter-rose perfect. 🙂

@inkling-for-christ First person and third person really aren’t that different. Mood setting descriptions, body language, sensations — they all still work. If you have trouble telling in a first person story, it seems you have a telly-y narrator. If your narrator is constantly telling how he/she feels or giving too much information about the…[Read more]

@winter-rose eh… close enough. ;P

@jenwriter17 well first of all, I must have somehow missed your introduction cuz I don’t remember saying hello. Hello, and welcome. 😉 I’m an old timer here, but I haven’t been around much lately due to crazy life. I’m so pleased to see new faces filling in.

Writing goals… *whimpering laugh*

Oh boy.

1. FINALLY get the third draft of the book…

@Winter-Rose nineteen this coming March… how close are we? 😛

@eamily I’ve yet to read it, but my friend loves it, and none of her recommendations have fallen short, so I have good reason to believe I’ll enjoy it. 🙂

By the way, thanks for including me in these books discussions. I love talking books! 😀

@emily I think I’ll have to read it again. I don’t remember much of it, but I do think I know what you mean about not connecting with the characters. But I think it was a fun read, very different to stuff I’d read before.

Also, let me try Mariposa’s tag… @mariposa

@inkling-for-christ Haha! 😀 I don’t think I’ve ever seen a “show don’t tell” review before. Good job.

@mariposa *blinks* Stop torturing me.

@Winter-Rose ooh I love it. The others have said my thoughts basically, but I would echo that yes, my first impression was that it was a little long, so if you could cut down some of it, it might be better.
