@emily-d I have no idea if we use weird slang all the time, because to us it wouldn’t be weird slang, it’d be normal, everyday speech! XD
I know we (and by we I mean my family and the people I know) don’t use a lot of slang, and probably don’t “sound” very Australian compared to what Americans might expect. But I have briefly met people who are…[Read more]

Hi Bethany! I’ve been using that journaling technique in my Bible time, and it’s been really helpful! Thank you for suggesting it. 🙂

Okay, that’s fair enough. Please let me know when you have the time. 🙂

@emma-flournoy I just read your analysis on my brother’s MB-type XD I find it hilarious how you said he’s not very blunt, because, in a way, it’s sooooo true. He beats around the bush so badly, we’re like “Spit it out!” But also sometimes he’s too blunt XD

@leumeister But proximity doesn’t determine who you choose as an accountability partner 😛 Mine is half-way around the world.
I saw someone on Y-Dubs ask for one like asking for a room mate 😀 They requested a certain age (which I think is fair enough) that they like the same genre, which makes sense, and stuff like that.

Well, I figured since we’re usually in the same room together…. 😛

@leumeister Why me specifically?

Leumeister replied to the topic Aquila in the forum Sci-Fi 7 years, 4 months ago
Oh, Okay… :/ Fair enough.
That’s a good idea about an accountability partner. Should I do it with @perfectfifths, someone else, or with a bunch of people? I’m on the Young Writer’s Workshop Facebook Group, should we all keep each other accountable?

Is anyone else interested in Alpha- and Beta-reading my stories? I’m really needing some feedback, critiques, and encouragement. I’m only really writing on weekdays during the school weeks, rarely writing during weekends and school holidays. I’m not sure I’m motivated. :/
I’ll tag those who’ve already replied to this topic, not counting those who…[Read more]

@countryjournalist2002 Welcome to the bestistest place on the interwebz! Is there a shorter name we can call you besides your tag, because it is a bit of a mouthful 😉
That’s great that you’ve finished a manuscript! 😀 What’s it about? And I love historical fiction, though I don’t write it (yet?) I mostly stick to fantasy. And writing about the…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 Or scary, depending on the context 😀

@that_writer_girl_99 I like all things weird too (to a degree 😉 ) I like it enough, but I just haven’t an idea that’ll stick. Yet… 😀

@corissa-maiden-of-praise Aha, that’s rhyming slang 😀 I don’t know it all, but from context, I’m guessing “billy-lids” means “kids.” So that sentence says “I’m taking the kids on the road with my wife.”
*Looks it up to make sure I’m not misinforming you* Yep, that’s it 😀 And here’s a resource for your enjoyment…[Read more]

@emily-d @dragon-snapper Well, I don’t hear kookaburras very often, so when I do, I think it’s cool 😀 And I’ve ever had one snatch a saussie off the barbie 😉
