@ClaireC Oh, cool! I noticed that you spell it “theatre”, not “theater”. Americans spell it the second way, apparently to accentuate our separation from England, but I much prefer your way. Musical theatre sounds like fun! I’ll ask Mommy to look up that song; my brother really likes Andrew Lloyd Webber’s music, and so do I. Have you seen Phantom…[Read more]

@jess: superpowers is such a trending movie/book topic right now. Because, let’s face it: superpowers are great, and we all wish we had them. (Oh, and according to several quizzes I’ve taken, I have the ability to create ice, force fields, and can make myself invisible. Yeah, it comes in handy.) And, because that genre is so popular, and so many…[Read more]

Looks like you’ve got it almost figured out, @jess! @emma-flournoy, good points. Maybe, the reason for having only five descendants is a one-child-per-family law sort of like China, to ensure a steady birth/death rate and to prevent over-population and famine. Your world reminds me of The Giver, by Lois Lowry. Not saying you can’t use that world…[Read more]

@ClaireC Oh, fun. I thought maybe your Internet was down or something. I missed you. 🙂 What were you auditioning for?

Oops, @jess, I forgot to tag you in my last post…

If you’re asking if you should use Alexa or Alexis in your book… that’s tough! Then there’s always Alexyi or Alexi or Alixis… the variations are unlimited! Look on websites or in books for baby names… they often have numerous variations and alternate spellings for a “normal” name.

@jess: I think Hazel was used in the Percy Jackson books, but I might be wrong. I like the name Dalton a lot. Your book sounds amazing! Although, you don’t want the government in your book to end up like Syndrome (a.k.a. Buddy) from the Incredibles: killing off people with powers because they are jealous of their gifts. I like the idea of the kids…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper: LOL you sound like you’d be handy on camping trips! I’m sure your claws make typing a little difficult.
I ended up having to order The Art of Big Hero 6 from inter-library loan, so if you can’t find it at your local library system, you may have to search abroad. When you do get your hands on that book, look for Jin Kim’s artwork…[Read more]

@ClaireC You’re back! I hope, anyway 🙂 How have you been doing with the Bible Challenge and everything?

@bluejay I forgot to say earlier, but thanks for writing with me! It was a lot of fun, and I can’t wait to do it again! 🙂

What do you guys think about blogs? Do any of you have blogs?

I’ve been sorta considering creating one … only I’m not entirely sure what it would be about …

What do you guys think about blogs? Do any of you have blogs?

Maybe the fact that their parents are missing has something to with their powers being looked down upon? Maybe the parents were once part of some government experiment to create enhanced peacekeepers that shut down due to complications. Maybe the effects of that experiment affected the kids … or maybe the kids were the experiment and none of…[Read more]

Sure thing, @jess ! 🙂

I did alright … I discovered that most of my poem stinks and that editing is going to be harder than even I anticipated, but … that’s writing for ya. 😉

Let’s go! Allons-y! 🙂

That worked out, actually, @jess . I had a few things to do myself. Are you ready to start now?

Awesome, @jess ! You ready to start in 10 minutes, and write for about 30 minutes?

Does anybody want to write in 15 minutes? (I have a few things to do first)

@bluejay Oh, cool. I am very curious indeed. 🙂
