@Audrey-Caylin What I tend to do, is write out a list of the problems and then write out ways that I’m going to fix those problems. Sometimes I do that on paper, or a doc, or whatever. But I do it with a dot-point list. Kind of like…
- Fred’s character arc is terrible
- Big plot hole in chapter six onward
And so on. Then there’s the list of…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper For your information, A.) You just melted the hologram of a chair, not the actual chair, B.) I don’t have a phone, and C.) my sarcasm is indestructible, especially by children such as yourself. Take that.

@ethryndal Ummm…did you say fork?
Well, my dragon fire is specially engineered to withstand chairs that withstand dragon fire. Ha! Joke’s right back at you! 😀
*melts chair, whether you like it or not, and when that fails, melts phone, and when that fails, melts sarcasm* Now what? 😉
@mariposa Xd Don’t worry. Dragon’s honor, I don’t eat people. 😀

@Audrey-Caylin Well, my editing has never been what you’d call “Organized” so I’ll leave this one to the professionals. Except to second what’s already been said and say that comments on the document are always lovely. 🙂

@Mariposa This brought tears to my eyes. A true masterpiece.
@Dragon-snapper *brandishes fork* HA, joke’s on you. My chairs are specially engineered to withstand dragon fire. *inspects fingernails and flicks a speck of dust from her shoulder* Better luck next time, my dear.

Excellent Question!
*pay attention, D.G., you might learn something*
*cough*
Anyway, here are a few suggestions.
If you’re organizing by an electronic device, I would just use comments in the exact section you want it int.
If you’re organizing by paper, you could organize by page number. So if your ‘scribbled’ note 😉 is…[Read more] -

@epicaddie2 Regrettably, I have not seen it…yet! “I will never be satisfied” until I see it. 😉
Oh, man…favorite songs are probably Yorktown (the World Turned Upside Down), One Last Time, Non-stop, Satisfied, Wait for It, and It’s Quiet Uptown. (It’s so hard to choose just one!!!)
Angelica is definitely one of my favorites, though I li…[Read more]

@audrey-caylin I organize my editing notes with the comments feature built into scrivener, google docs, word, etc. So, whenever a beta reader leaves a comment, if the fix is too much to handle right then as I’m reading through the beta reader’s comments, I’ll copy it over to my personal copy of the document. I’ll do the same thing if their comment…[Read more]

@alia *gasp* The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin!!! I love that boooook!
@dekreel You know, surprisingly for the writer I am, I read so little. I really only read the Magic Tree House, but I love them. All of them!! They were great! And are, may I add. But yeah, I’ve always had a problem of not reading much. I’l admit I didn’t read the Chronicles…[Read more]

@catwing Man. I missed the Incredibles party.
“Mr. Incredible calling for help? Help me! Help me!”
But this is a quote for you all: “He stayed at the drive-through till sunrise. He may have dozed off once or twice.”

@dekreel And because I don’t have any weaknesses whatsoever (none that would be helpful to you, leastways….) I’m going to make one up. Anger issues. I melt stuff, don’t I? How ’bout I get angry when people argue with me and when my stories aren’t working properly. K? If not….which one of those weaknesses does no one else have…?
