@feedingmygoldfish welcome! Did you draw your profile picture? I really like it. 😀 Have you read “Anne Of Green Gables?” You seem like someone who would enjoy her. 😀

1. I don’t outline. Nasty habit, I know. But it just doesn’t seem to work for me yet. I need practice. But the faucet of ideas just doesn’t flow until I start writing. So I can’t help on that topic. SKIP TO THREE
3. I use google docs. And I haven’t tried scrivener so I have no opinion. But I love google docs.
4. I would research…[Read more]

So I took a 6-day intensive on taming of the shrew. It ha quickly became my favorite Shakespeare play. So I wrote this blurb that would probably be stuck in the middle of the story somewhere:
The knight ride to the mouth of the cave. The afternoon light fell on him, dappled through the trees. The cave for which he had been seeking for o long…[Read more]

I’m bad with meter. I’m not done with the poetry curicculum and mom lost it like, two years ago. 🙁 But what meter would you suggest? I’ll look it up and try to tweak it. @daeus

I know I need to fix the narration. That’s why it’s in here! Thanks for the input! I’m glad you liked the ending. @jess

@winter-rose you’ll probably be done by the time I can write, but once I finish baking bread this afternoon, (I have to start by 2:00 p.m.) since the weather is spectacular, I’ll be in my favorite spot mapping out my children’s story. 😀

Today I reviewed Matthew 6:1-4. It’s funny how when I first memorized that small passage, it took me about half an hour but now it would take me about 10 minutes. Memorizing just gets easier and easier guys!

Tears trace themselves across his face,
His eyes, unmoving, staring into space.His heart feels dead inside him,
His heart turns cold and dim.His heart that once flamed with passion,
Now, is grim and ashen.His soul, though, still flames on,
And brings in him a new dawn.A flame of rage ignites his soul,
And he discovers his newfound…[Read more] -

Are any of you on all poetry? It’s a great free poetry platform. You can see its list of great features on their website, and I highly recommend it. (Also, btw, they offer a paid membership that is $2 ea. month) I recommend it in this area of the forum because you could get several good critiques out of it. And I’ll read whatever you post XD. I’m…[Read more]

*confetti and pats you the back and shakes your hand vigorously*
1. How do you write extended outlines? — Usually, I write a three point outline, beginning, middle and end, and off of that I’ll write it chapter by chapter. While I’m doing the three point outline, many ideas for scenes will pop into my head, so I just write them down on…[Read more] -
Kina Lamb replied to the topic The Legend of King Daeus in the forum Short Story Critiques 9 years, 5 months ago
ah, @dragon-snapper, I just had an idea. Daeus loves to sing, he’s always singing, and he sings really well. He loves symphonies, too. Oh, he loves symphonies! (Did I mention he wants to write one of his own?) If you could capture his love of music in your story, it would be really accurate. 😀

@dragon-snapper I absolutely cannot believe that I didn’t see this earlier!!! Wow, this is great! Although…. I do have to say that Daeus isn’t like how you pictured him. He really is very kind and not at all controlling or desiring of power… 😀 But I do have to say, the part when “As they marched into the armory, Daeus conldn’t help but say,…[Read more]

@ethryndal @emma-flournoy I think that if they had kissed at the end it would’ve messed up the scene.
