@kate-flournoy 😛 Heh, well, I’ll be back in a few minutes. Lunch shouldn’t take too long.

@daeus Ah, lunch sounds good. I edited some of that dragon story that I’m writing. The one where you banish me. 😛 I also added about 234 words to that and wrote 165 words to something else. I’ll be back later. Maybe I can finish that dragon story.

@Daeus okay well now I’m writing… XD When you come back, just tag me.

@Dragon-Snapper you still on?

@dragon-snapper Ok, I’m closing down for lunch. Got 449 written.

@daeus It must.

@dragon-snapper Sweet. The show goes on!

@kate-flournoy Sure.

@daeus I can join you.

@Daeus aaaahhhhh! I just stopped. 🙁 Lunch must be eaten. I will be later though. Do you want me to tag you?

@perfectfifths Btw, if you’re allowed to have outside input, I’ll volunteer to beta read. I think I can handle 1,500 words. 😉

@emma-flournoy Huzzah!

@emma-flournoy @ethryndal Thanks, guys! 😀 Normally I wouldn’t go for this since it’s such a small word limit, and I struggled to try one that had 1,7500 (2,500 more words than this) but the prize is… extremely generous and I do have something that I actually need it for. 🙂

Experiments in Living:
1. One is victorious if they are able to protect their family and friends.
2. One is victorious if they have control over all those who wish them harm.
3. One is victorious if they can gain the ability to live in freedom from physical tyranny and oppression.
4. One is victorious if they can serve others and…[Read more]

@aratrea While working out my experiments in living for the next section, I realized that victory would work better than either of the others options I had. So I’ve tweaked my question and message slightly to ‘what constitutes true victory?’ and ‘Victory is not measured by if we win or lose earthly battles, but rather in our relationship with…[Read more]
