I’m posting here to knock this back up to the top of the forum. It’s been little while, but I think we have a good setup if anyone feels like continuing the story. 🙃

@elishavet-pidyon

Sorry to leave Wilhelm hanging! This must be remedied

@godlyfantasy12

ill totally need to come back and start brainstorming more on here, cuz I feel I’m missing that community again of writing. I’ve also joined Prowriting Aid’s community, but it’s not as tight knit as here so I miss yall. And yall know a lot about my project already!

I get that. I’ve actually joined Young Writers Workshop this ye…[Read more]

SHE’S ALIVE!!!

@elanor

Beautiful!

Whaley got 2 (very close with Robin Hood though. Same author)

Beth got 1 (Stabbish!!)

Power got 4 (Feeeeechiiiiiiiieeeee)

Shadow got 2 (so now Aragorn is in Dracula….hmmm)

Overall I am impressed by how many knew Screwtape, and y’all’s quoting powers. I didn’t pick easy quotes. Congratulations to all.

@Power, tag you’re it!

@whalekeeper @elishavet-pidyon @beth-torres @power @theshadow

Alrighty Y’all! Time for answers.

1. Elizabeth, Pride and Prejudice

2. Edmund, Prince Caspian, Narnia

3. Aragorn, The Fellowship of the Ring, LotR

4. Francis, Men of Iron

5. Halt, The Ruins of Gorlan, Rangers Apprentice

6. A Feechie, Secret of the Swamp King, Wilder King…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon HAHA lollll

On other news, Tolkien keeps stealing my character names.

real

although I steal names from everyone else so……

@elishavet-pidyon

Oh yes, Portals! I should read more of it. The bit I read was delightful.

@elishavet-pidyon

I probably should not be as comforted by that as I am.

Published authors have probably felt the same about their stuff. If that’s not comforting, I don’t know what is. 😛

And I spelled it differently, so there. XD

Problem solved

@elishavet-pidyon

What project are you working on?

@elishavet-pidyon

Good job, friend 👍

@elishavet-pidyon

What’s your favorite word biome so far?

I love collecting ideas from novels published between from the 1910s-50s. Mostly 40s and 50s. I keep notes from them in a notebook and I’ve done this for months; it’s a lot of fun. I often collect dialogue because there’s something very identifiable about fictional dialogue from that ti…[Read more]

Watching to make sure you’re held accountable 👀

@koshka
Here’s the ones I think have a chance:

1. Hmm, sounds like Pride and Prejudice.

3. Dracula?

4. My best guess is King Lear, although that’s a play and not a book. Still, the ‘Tom Fool’ sounds close to ‘Poor Tom.’

10. Is it Screwtape Letters?

Welp, I know some of them.

2) Edmund from Prince Caspian

6) One of the Feechiefolk from The Secret of the Swamp King

9) Morley the cooper from Sir Kendrick and the Castle of Bel Lione

10) Screwtape from The Screwtape Letters

@beth-torres

Hmmm, stabby. 😉

*brandishes pencil*

@koshka

I only know 8, because if I am correct, it is from one of my absolute favorite short stories. Is number 8 from The Wooing of Sophelia Stupe, said by Ollister Pembrick?

@whalekeeper

This probably isn’t even a wolf-focused story, but I’ll guess The Wolf Wilder because I want you to look it up and read it. It’s so good.

This is precisely why I picked vague quotes. Need good book recommendations. XD

Hmm, looks like you got a few right. I shall refrain from sharing answers for a day in case someone finds this randomness.

@koshka

Get ready for some random ideas

1. Pride and Prejudice (something tells me it’s from something else, but I might be right)

2. Sassy. Hmm. Is this the part in Fahrenheit 451 where Montag talks with Clarisse?

3. The only wolf story I can remember off the top of my head is The Wolf Wilder. This probably isn’t even a wolf-focused story,…[Read more]
