Joy replied to the topic You know you are a writer when… in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
You know you’re a writer when you hear or read someone say “legit,” and your Perfect Grammatacallion self just wants to pull your hair and strangle them and scream, “That’s ‘legitimate!!’ ‘LEGIT-IMATE!!!!!'”
(No offense to anyone here who likes saying that)
@emily… Even though you’re on a hiatus 😉

Hello, I’m here if anyone wants to join.
@seekjustice Are you back yet?
@dekreel you were here around the same time last night…

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #12 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 7 months ago
Bye! I might see you later.
@winter-rose I must disappear too. My time is up and I must knuckle-down and write a few character charts!

@winter-rose @seekjustice I’ve got to go watch President Trump’s State of the Union Address with my family. I’ll probably be back here in a couple of hours, at my usual time. 🙂

I know, I’m terrible when it comes to getting distracted!

@winter-rose @seekjustice I’m here too! Working on a semi-short story, the beginning of which I posted somewhere on this forum a while ago.

I know right? I’ll probably leave in half an hour without having done anything at all! Nice!

I’m here, simultaneously crafting a blurb, catching up on some bloggerly stuff and making a collage. What are you working on?

Person: How was drawing today?
Me: Good. Ike actually let me draw him today. I had so many conversations with him, trying to convince him to let me draw him–because he never does–and finally, I got ONE picture of him. Out of the twenty I’ve done. That boy…
Person: The men in white coats will be here shortly.
This actually happened,…[Read more]

I sometimes read my books aloud to my siblings, but whenever my mum or dad walks in, I stop and awkwardly try to make conversation about something totally random until they go away. I don’t mind my mum reading my stuff, I just hate it when she hears me reading it aloud. Whereas all my small brothers and sister think I can do no wrong in the r…

SeekJustice replied to the topic Infant and Child Characters in the forum Characters 8 years, 7 months ago
Putting a baby in a box, even well padded, does sound potentially dangerous. However, if what they’re running away from is super bad, the ends probably justify the means in this case. It would likely be a risk worth taking.
A Â few things worth mentioning to you.
- Babies all have different personalities. Some people just see “cute…

@skredder Oh, haha. 😀 Yes, we Americans do tend to think of our country as the center of the universe. Why would anyone else need an East Coast? Our East Coast is fifty times bigger than the East Coast of England, right? 🙂
(No offense to the British people here. I’m being sarcastic.)

Its a dystopian and she’s pretty  poor, so her clothes are  quite raggedy, but they would be simple and practical too.

Thanks! I think her hairstyle would be something practical and simple–a bun or a ponytail I think.

Simply wonderful, @gh24682468999! As a former MK, this all makes total sense, and is precisely what I went through. Learning to accept and move forward, to see the bright side, to trust that God really does do all things for the good of those that love Him, is extremely difficult, but not impossible. With God, ALL things are possible. You covered…[Read more]

Rochellaine replied to the topic Contemporary Western Novel in the forum Novel Idea Critiques 8 years, 7 months ago
@skredder Haha, yeah. I read one of my little sister’s books which was set in England, and the story was about a little girl who was sad because her grandmother or something lived far away on the coast, and usually they spent the summer with her, but couldn’t this year, so she missed her.
I looked it up, and turns out they were about two hours…[Read more]
