R. J. Wordsmith

@R-J-Wordsmith Neato.

@r-j-wordsmith I would like to add that even before knowing what condemned meant, I kind of liked it. It felt ominous, especially not knowing what it meant, which I think is what you were trying to get across, so I wouldn’t stress too much over it. 🙂 Also, after rereading, I noticed this bit at the end:

Oh well, perhaps a letter will arrive…

@r-j-wordsmith Really? Wow, I didn’t know that! I wonder if he was thinking like Lewis when he came up with the idea of a time-travel book to be like Narnia (of course, Tolkien never intended it to be allegorical) I like the Hobbit better too, but that’s probably because it is my favorite book. 😛

@r-j-wordsmith
Fantasy is lots of fun, especially if you get lots of world-building ideas.
Two of my novels are part of a series (that I will likely never finish since it’s my first and I didn’t plan anything out) while the other is just a random practice novel. =P

Awesome, thank you! I think that whenever I manage to get the con…[Read more]

*chokes* Well that was unexpected. @Emma-Flournoy

And I love that @R-J-Wordsmith. 😀

@r-j-wordsmith *shudders* I’d melt if my book was hidden beneath others.
@kate-flournoy Indeed. I’ve been trying for months to regain what I had been able to do before, write what I love, but I’ve been so caught up in trying to make it world-worthy that I’ve forgotten what I’m actually doing. I read through my old work, and in comparing it to…[Read more]

Yep, what @Ethryndal said, even though I didn’t know what it meant. @R-J-Wordsmith

@r-j-wordsmith There’s nothing so tragically wonderful as a sad story, and boy, you’ve written a good one. I have nothing further to add to what has already been pointed out, but I will say that I agree with you about the condemned sign. (Even though I didn’t know what it meant either. 🙂 ) If the house goes for sale, readers would be left to…[Read more]

@r-j-wordsmith
What are you trying to do? Make me cry my eyes out??? *blows nose and wipes away tears*
This is so simple but beautifully written. I did notice some spelling and punctation errors, but other than that, it’s really good. I see now from your post above what the “Condemned” sign means, but maybe you could make that a little clearer.…[Read more]

New topic.
Potatoes.

Nice to meet you too, and thanks! =D
I’d say my favorite genre (both to read and write in) is some kind of mixture of fantasy, sci-fi, and speculative, though I appreciate a good story in any genre. What about you?

This should totally be a children’s book. With the right illustrations it would be perfect. I love it. As Emma pointed out, a few errors as far as punctuation and spelling, but otherwise it’s lovely. Good work, @R-J-Wordsmith.

@R-J-Wordsmith Ooh, I like that. It’s nicely short, but you still made it interesting and fit the story in.

*sniff*

I’m not sure I caught the meaning of the ‘condemned’ sign though; she died, but I don’t know any better than the mailbox what the sign means. 😛
Also I noticed a few missed words and letters, and punctuation errors—several…[Read more]

that if my work can impact just one life for Christ, I’ll have succeeded.

@R-J-Wordsmith Yes.

@R-J-Wordsmith It’s good. 😉

These are so awesome guys!

@Emma-Flournoy… and sis. Seriously. You need to write a book.

Hi @R-J-Wordsmith! You sure fit here. 😀 Have you read Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis?

@R-J-Wordsmith welcome!

@r-j-wordsmith
Hiya! Welcome to the bestistest place on the internets! I have only one question to ask you…have you read the Lord of the Rings?… Oh, man…don’t even get me started on figuring out what to work next. I am in the midst of that predicament. Too many ideas.
