Curiosity has overtaken me once again…*flashback to the Mind of a Writer* *gulps and dons protective cloak* Okay, I’m ready.
What, may I ask, A writer’s biggest fears? Any Fears, or what a writer finds courage in? It can be anything, tangible or intangible: writer’s block, failures or success, ladybugs? -

@Kate-Flournoy Cellphones, is it? Not something exciting like a sword? *scowls* Ah well.
You get a voicemail on your phone. Someone is pleading for help and you can hear your own voice yelling in the background. When you check the time stamp, you see it is dated five years in the future.

@graciegirl Progress is always better than a step nowhere, right?
*bows* Glad to be of service. -

@graciegirl I’ve finished my poem, and the editing of it, so I’m going to stop now. How’d you do?

@graciegirl I full heartedly agree. 😀

@daeus Coolio, thanks for writing!

@graciegirl Great!I forgot to mention, that whenever we leave, we post the progress we made and say our farewells (if you want to 😛 ). That way no one keeps writing for a million years waiting on the next Tolkien for a progress report. 😛

@graciegirl Basically, the Writers’ Corner is a thread where someone posts when they are writing something (anything) and someone else can see that and write at the same time. Daeus and I are writing at the same time, and it gives us an accountability factor. Protection against dilly-dallying on the internets and stuff like that.

@daeus Great!
…though I’m using the term ‘copyediting’ freely. I wrote something on paper and I’m typing it and editing it at the same time. 😛 -

@daeus @kate-flournoy @northerner @winter-rose @ethryndal @anyone else I’m going to be copy-editing (or something like it) if anyone would like to join.

@Daeus and @Kate-flournoy you are in danger of becoming unoffensive due to a lack of opposition. Cliches are so much fun. 😀 I like twisting their endings, not actually using a complete cliched scene or idea, but starting with cliches and then making it turn into something else is a very useful technique.

@aratrea Ah, right. Sorry.
His experiment in living is that man’s value consists in his name, and his name consists of his actions. Everything he does, he does with his name into mind. In his mind, if he fails, then he loses his name, and if he loses his name, he loses his worth.
The focusing question is: Of what does a man’s worth consist? T…[Read more]

This is a positive arc for a character in a fantasy novel of mine.
Characteristic moment: Shows protagonist discriminated against because he doesn’t have a family name. He is struggling to gain a name through his own actions.
Mash 1: Being told he has a name. He feels he didn’t earn it and doesn’t deserve it. He hasn’t proved his worth and m…[Read more]

@Kayla-Joy Hello. Pleased to meet you. *sweeps bow*
And trilogies… those little things. *chokes on insane laugh* I’m currently working on a futuristic/dystopian trilogy. 😉 I’d love to help, if I could. Google docs or email would probably work the best… I don’t get on here as much as I used to, to check things, for time reasons. 😉
