@dekreel Have you seen the latest poems on the CP tag topic?

@dekreel Okayyy, but it’s really late here, so I might wait for that discussion until morning. 😀

It was originally intended to be set in the 60s, but I think I’m moving it back to the 50s.  Do you ever write historical fiction?

@dekreel @ariella-newheart *realizes I missed a WHOLE DISCUSSION of Star Trek* *cries*

Anyway, to clear things up, you’re both right. 😀 Captain Jean-Luc Picard was written to be French, but the guy who plays him is Patrick Stewart, a British actor.  So, he usually speaks with a British accent, though he speaks a few sentences of French several…[Read more]

@dekreel  The plot is in place?  That’s always a good thing! 😀

I’m trying to work on writing my his-fic short story and not get distracted. 🙂

I’m also staying up purposefully, not distractedly, waiting for my brother to come home from the airport. (Remember I told you I couldn’t ask him about the Star Trek episode because he was out of s…[Read more]

@dekreel Wow!  Hello!  *accepts high-five with great pride at being a night-owl*

Whatcha doin’?

@jenwriter17 Haha!  And I’m not a bit ashamed!  Being hooked on writing poems is not a bad thing…unless you accidentally reveal to a logical, unimaginative person this strange topic and let him read the poems, and he looks at you like you came from another planet before stalking out of the room.

(No, I didn’t do that.  I don’t know anyone li…[Read more]

@kaya-young Sorry I didn’t get back when I planned.  I got tied up. But I hope you’ll be a frequenter of this topic from now on!

That does sound interesting.  One of the things I like best about sci-fi is when it’s well thought out and researched.  In one of the Tom Swift Jr. books Tom makes a zero gravity machine by making a huge box with di…[Read more]

@seekjustice Congratulations! 😀 😀

Thanks, and hope to see you again by Monday! (that means Tuesday, in Australia, though.) 🙂

@kaya-young Cool!  Glad you finally joined us here.  It’s a lot of fun.  I’ll be dropping out for about half an hour and then I’ll be back.  If you’re still here later I’ll see you.  What are you working on?

@daughteroftheking 😀 😀 Someone should write an argumental dialogue between a person and her (personified) Sanity.  At the end Sanity decides it isn’t appreciated and leaves, and the the person can’t do anything anymore and has to beg it to come back…

@kaya-young You’ve never been on the Writers’ Corner before???

Or did I read that wrong? 🙂  I have been known to do that…

@kaya-young That’s exactly how it works. 😀  I wasn’t here when you posted, and I’m sure you left long ago, but I’m here now.

You can either just announce that you’re writing and hope someone is around to see it and join you, or you can get to know who is around at what time, or check the list of who is active on the forum and tag people to ask…[Read more]

@kaya-young I didn’t really see anything you did badly in the passages you have there, but I do like what @daeus said about defining your characters.

Each character should have a slightly different voice.  So, whereas one person says “I don’t know,” maybe the second person doesn’t like contractions, and says “I do not know.”  (I have a sister w…[Read more]

@sam-kowal Thanks!

Thing One and Thing Two prancing through the halls with pots of blue dye meant for JJ

That is a most intriguing idea. 😀

@jenwriter17 That’s your first time?  Wow.  I love it!  And I read it to my sister, and she loved it too.  It’s hilarious.  But what happened to Charlie when you fainted? 😀 😀 😀

@supermonkey42 I love the…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I was actually about to say the same thing. 😀  So goodbye, and we leave an empty Writers’ Corner for someone to fill.

@seekjustice Okay, bye!  will you be on again at three or four pm your time like you usually are?

@ingridrd Oh, byeeee!  See you later!

@ingridrd Okay, all good!  Haha!  So I guess if I ever do write a poem that I post on the forum for critique you want to be tagged…

But right now everything I’m working on is prose. 😀

Now that I’m finished with my poem I’m going back to my his-fic short story.  How’s your brainstorming coming along?

@jenwriter17 The Cat in the Hat is amazing.  He can do so many things, can’t he?  Except, of course, control Things One and Two…

Yes!  That is exactly what I meant.  A ball attended by octopi.  Have fun storming the brain!  (You think it’ll work?)

You get ten more points if you can recognize and answer my quote with the last line of it. 😀

@ingridrd Um…I already tagged two people, but if you go over to the topic and ask to be tagged the next person to write a poem will tag you.

Sorry I missed you! 🙁

@jenwriter17 Sounds great!  I think this is going to be fun and interesting.
