@mnvalentine  I like the cover for Catcher in the Rye 🙂

@gh24682468999  Hi!! I’m writing the KPA again

Oooh, I love haikus! Have a collection of them myself. Had you ever written haikus before?

@rochellaine  @supermonkey42  @aislinn-mollisong  @dragon-snapper  @catwing  @winter-rose  @jenwriter17  @warrenluther04  @anyone

I’m writing!

*crosses fingers* I’d better make progress…

Wow. Guys, I am literally tearing up  X’)

@jane-maree

God doesn’t make mistakes.

So true. It’s easy to take for granted how we’re all masterpieces. Thank you for the reminder!

@that_writer_girl_99

As I was reading your reply, I started praying “Thy will be done.” I shouldn’t expect myself to be something. Who says God will make everything “r…[Read more]

@Dekreel basically what has already been said. I struggle with this too. Especially recently. I found an author whose skill in my chosen genre is so crazily far beyond my own I don’t dare dream I’ll ever reach it.

And much as I hate to admit this, that thought drives me absolutely bonkers.

It’s not that I’m jealous of him, just that I loathe…[Read more]

@dekreel God’s writing a story right here, right now.

When I’ve doubted and struggled (which happens all the time), the only where I can turn is to my favorite (and, tbh, sometimes least favorite) author and say, “I trust you to write this story till its final, marvelous end.”

Now that I’ve done the popular thing and given the best advice I can…[Read more]

I’m probably going to regret telling you that…

@That_Writer_Girl_99 Sadly, that is also true. 😂 Though I’m not sure if you people have realized yet that you’re actually fueling aforesaid heartlessness… There is nothing more rewarding for an INTJ than being noted for their stone-faced psychopathic heartlessness. We take immense pride in it.

If you really want to annoy us, call us cuddly…[Read more]

@Dekreel *buries her non-poetic head in pillow and groans* I’m working on it… 😛

@That_Writer_Girl_99 *contemplates all the INFPs she knows* That’s… sadly true. I don’t know how you guys survive.

@Dekreel Oh honey. I feel ya. I’ve been dealing with self-doubt myself over the past few months, and the conclusion I’ve basically come to is this:

You can’t be better than your best.

We look around at other people’s writing and beat ourselves up because we’re not as good or as ambitious as them, but we can’t even remedy the problem because…[Read more]

@Dekreel

Hey. Look. I’m not going to say you’re an amazing writer, but I am going to say that if you like writing and if it’s something you enjoy then it’s a gift. It’s a gift from God.

He’s blessed you with that gift and you don’t have to be a higher standard, a better writer, as good as ‘so-and-so’, because He’s given you the gift in exactly…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollisong  Well, here’s Amber.  😉

Oh whoops I didn’t see that @dekreel was already going to…*shrugs*  Can I draw her anyway?

@aislinn-mollisong  *facedesk*

@aislinn-millisong  I will do her!

@aislinn-mollisong  YES I WANT TO DRAW EMBER! WOOHOO!

Ahem, sorry. *sheepish grin*  I’d like to give it a shot 😀

Ohh, unless you want Ari to do it…

@daeus  Ahhh, Oops, my bad X’D

Well, it’s still a good idea XD

@supermonkey42  I’m impressed by you going through all of the archives! Do you read every single post?

@sage-g  *gasps*  You are really talented.  She looks great!!!!! 🙂  And thank you.
