@freedomwriter76 I have a pretty funny Thanksgiving story! At least, it was funny for us who weren’t my cousin!

So, our family has a tradition where, every year (It was supposed to be every other year, but who wants to wait that long!), we write down in a card what we are thankful for, put it in an envelope, and read the card(s) from the previous…[Read more]

I love questions like this! Okay, here is some info regarding surviving a fall.

1) First off, around 50% of the people who fall from 4 stories (48 feet) don’t survive. In your case it’s a 3 story building, so the chances would likely be relatively higher, but still . . .

2) In most cases of people falling from extreme heights…[Read more]

All I did was press the search button without typing anything into the search box, and up it popped! (No hacking. . . this time 😋)

Yay!!!

Weird Writers? 🧐 Are we truly weird, or was that comment a blatant falsehood created so that I may despise it with all my liverworts? If it is true, then why is it not well know? (Or perhaps my knowing just doesn’t know this truth, therefore it is unknown to my knowing.) Alas! Shall there every be an answer to this deep theological…[Read more]

@ava-blue Kinda. I actually have one giant playlist marked WRITING MUSIC. It’s almost all instrumental and ranges from classical, celtic, medieval, western, waltz, steampunk, VBS background music, ect.

@lrose5 As Freedom Writer said, find books. I recommend if you have a college near you, go to the college library. They will likely have more research material than a regular public library would. You probably won’t be able to check out the books (Unless you’re a student), but you can read them there.

1) Roman army ranks

2) Scientific word for mixed

3) Shag yarn

5) Egyptian cotton

6) Professional wresting holds

7) Slime pits

@hullofellowhumans sounds like an interesting plot idea. I also enjoy a good sci-fi/dystopian story here and there. What are some of your favorites?

A couple of ideas

1) 500,000 is kinda a low population for a planet. Say, we’re talking about one as tiny as Pluto (About half the size of the US), even in this case, every person would be able to…[Read more]

Ball caps! Oh, how I like them!!! 🧢🤪

@eaw24 You have provoked the attention of the Black Mongoose. Though this act in all likelihood was unpremeditated (All you did was post a short introductory bio regarding oneself) and based off of the directions given regarding the proper behavior of an individual lately enlisted in the KP corps, I have come to the conclusion that it has been a…[Read more]

Yep, High Sheriff Slate Protector, Guardian of Miska (a.k.a Granite Watch or, his not so nice names, Phantom and Black Death) is a C in my WIP.

Their we go! It’s now loaded up top. Here’s also a little pic I drew of Slate 

 

Here’s a mood board I did of Slate Protector

@samuel-p-robbins Could you allow comments in the doc? You don’t have to if you don’t want to, but it makes it easier to leave more specific feedback.

@wilder-w here’s a “love” poem

Dear Fallen Friend

my Heart is Torn

and Eyes do Burn

till the End

Beautiful Blood

Mixed in brown Mud

Thanks for your Life

how Much we Owe

to Guard us all

the Mighty Fell

 

Now we Must Fly

Look up S. D. Smith (The author of the Green Ember series), and scroll through his social media platforms (Try to go back a couple years) and website. He promotes his stuff through giveaways (Yes, bribes work), goals, and awesome quotes. I have watched his marketing over the past 5-8 year, and he has done very well.

p.s. Even though you might not…[Read more]

Kent
Kent had been staying in the background. Making sure that none of the other three got behind him or out of sight.
The oddly dressed ape-thing named Feathers was pointing out a door. “I think this is it.  Hesh, Dark Player, can either of you get it open?”
Now this would be interesting to watch. The door wa…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 This is an interesting conversation. I will admit that I kinda agree with @kathleenramm . Having a 20 year old female and a 16-17 year old male who are in a romantic relationship is kinda weird (Though, Shakespeare at the age of 18 married a 26 year old). I could understand if the ages were swapped That would still be very young…[Read more]
