What are you planning?

@r-j-wordsmith Coolio, I’m working on planning.

@dragon-snapper Still here. Working on chapter eleven.

@graciegirl Hahaha! That is too funny! I remember Marisi now. That one was good. 🙂 Too avoid too much confusion, I usually spell their names how they sound, unless of course, that looks terrible (too often). The problem is that I usually envision my books as movies.

@graciegirl @winter-rose @kate-flournoy @ethryndal @whoever-else-wants-to-join I’m going to be on here for a bit.

@graciegirl Most of us are in EST, but we are spread across the globe. Just include your time zone in your post, and you should be fine.

@dragon-snapper Good set of focusing questions and answers there. I like the diversity of answers. I presume you’re defining pride slightly-differently than most definitions in order to defend a positive use of it?

@winter-rose Poor alpha reader. Alright. See you around.

@winter-rose Here. Have some lemonade. *hands you barrel*

@winter-rose Hmm. Hopefully bittersweet, not just bitter?

@winter-rose Yep.
