@waterlily I’m writing cheese and crackers and eating my western…
…I mean the other way around. 😀 Though that might actually be interesting.
Have you ever pushed someone off a cliff? I’m about to try it for the first time.

@waterlily Hi there! Welcome back. Haha, I just got a snack too. What are you eating?
And of course, what are you writing?

@jane-maree *laughs* Oh, I didn’t think of that, but you’re so right! 😀
@jenwriter17 Something that I realized I should be thankful for is the fact that we don’t have the “King’s ring=irreversable law” rules anymore. Those seem to be very inconvenient, and we see the same problems in the book of Daniel. It’s nice that Esther and Mordecai fo…[Read more]

I’m still here! Does anyone want to join me? Or am I “all alone wif my foughts?” *doubles over in laughter at a reference that no one but me understands* 😀

Bobert’s bored and wants people to talk to, so take pity on him, please!

@mnvalentine Don’t worry. You’re safe. I like squirrels as long as they don’t eat the birdseed. But I still can’t disbelief real things. Only imaginary creatures. 🙂
@dekreel Upon a reread I suddenly realized that you let me do the Spock-eyebrow!! I actually did teach myself to raise one eyebrow by careful training and practice about five…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Okay, goodbye! Do come back later and challenge me to a write-off. You’ll be sure to win, but I need the work. 😀

@dragon-snapper Yup, they live in the future. It must be weird for @seekjustice to post a message and then realize I read it the day before she posted it! 😀 Time travel!
Oh, do you like cliffs? They’re very convenient dropping off points. 😮

@dragon-snapper Oh, what an unfeeling character! 🙂 😀
*whoop* I think I’ve almost gotten past the bridge part and to the excitement! I do believe one of my characters is about to fall off a cliff.
@seekjustice Good morning Australia! Have you got that idea figured out for me today? (Don’t worry too much about it, though, since I’m working on…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Ack! Sometimes it’s like a knife they’re sticking into you:
“What do you mean, I wasn’t consistent?!”
“Well, in the last scene they drove here in a car, and now they’re walking back home.”
“Are you serious?” *runs to look it up* “Aaaah! How could I have done that?”(Fortunately, that one was a pretty easy fix, as all I had to…[Read more]

@ethryndal Thank you! Yes, it’s basically all about timing now. We want the kids to be able to come home as soon as possible, but have to finish all the extra paperwork first. 🙁
It’s so amazing to know all these prayers are with us!

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@dragon-snapper Well, of course I get ideas and plan in my head for my books, but I’ve never really written more than a paragraph-long synopsis of my plans before starting to write. And plans often change during the process of writing.
It worked really well for my kids series, but I think my time travel novel could have used a little more…[Read more]

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@dragon-snapper And even though it’s really boring to write, you can’t let the readers know you’re bored! 😀
I’ve preferred typing to handwriting for a long time, but I also never have planned out or outlined any of my works before, and am just deciding that I need to do at least a little bit of that to make my western turn out well. So while I…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 I think @catwing did something similar with her WIP, Firebird, so she might like to talk about it. 🙂

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@dragon-snapper When I get to a place in my writing where I’m on the roll and can write several pages in a row I write very fast, but when I get to a “bridge” place in between interesting sections I sometimes will pout and leave the work entirely alone for a really long time. Which practice is not at all conducive to completion of my stories!

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@dragon-snapper Actually, that’s a great idea since I have a huge problem with buckling down and focusing on one project. 😮 🙂
If I wasn’t working on the ministry website I would definitely take you up on that, though I would probably lose. 😀

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@dragon-snapper And I guess it’s my place to ask: What way is that, exactly? 😀

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@dragon-snapper Oh, that’s not what I meant. 😀 It’s just a joking excuse that we use when we get too distracted. We always come on here with the intent and purpose of writing, but when we get distracted we’ve got to have a reasonable excuse. 🙂
Because like you said, getting distracted here is way too easy!

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@dragon-snapper I’m just getting started updating my parents’ ministry website, and in between that (because I like working on multiple things at the same time) I’m working on my western.
We definitely get distracting here! But I’ve come up with a solution to that question, which I shared with a couple of others and they liked it: This is…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Hi! I’m here.
This may sound funny, but I’m wondering why you tagged Daeus? I’ve never seen him on Writers’ Corner. 🙂 (To be fair, I’ve not been on KP for all that long, though.)
Are you working on your sci-fi novel again?

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #14 in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 1 month ago
@alia Okay, let’s see… 😀
I completely understand about trauma issues with adopted kids, obviously, since we’ve adopted so many. My parents run a ministry counseling adoptive parents, and have written over 40 books on parenting and adoption, so what I’m saying is mostly what I’ve heard them repeat over and over. (I hope I get it right! :)…[Read more]
