@jenwriter17 Cool.

Nope, no advice.  I’ve been looking over the plans you and others have suggested on this thread and thinking that if I ended up joining it’d be sink or swim for me, with a leaning toward sink. 😛  I am so inconsistent in my work!  Basically I mean, if I was able to keep up it would be just what I need to be consistent in my wr…[Read more]

WELL IT’S ABOUT TIME! Welcome back to the bestest place in Cyberspace, dude!! 😀 😀

I am seeing your face. I am freaking out. . . o.o Apologies, it’s just. . . Whoa.  Anyway, great to have you back!!

@rochellaine I sure am! 😉 I’m not sure when exactly the group would be formed though. I’m still researching how critique groups are run, how online groups meets, familiarizing myself with Google hangouts, etc. Did you have any advice?

You…don’t like Anne of Green Gables????  No.  Please, no.

I didn’t understand Anne of Green Gables until I became a writer, but I liked it even before then.  But, did you read it before you started writing?  If so, why not try it again? (and the rest of the series. 😉 )

POLLYANNA IS AMAZING.

I liked the What Katy Did series, but I don’t rem…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira I’m not going to give you a cut and dried answer here, because, like everyone else said, I don’t know if there is a specific answer.

One thing I will say, is that you would probably want to stay away from the curse words which include God’s name.  Other curse words can be debatable, and I know that it’s your character saying it and…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I read–or rather my mum read to me–Heidi many years ago. I don’t remember being particularly impressed by it and I kind of lumped it under Pollyanna/Anne of Green Gables/Elsie Dinsmore/What Katy Did and all the other girl books I didn’t like, but I should definitely try it again.

And yes, I’m currently reading it. (and referring…[Read more]

@seekjustice I usually look up any new musical you mention immediately and listen to at least a few bars, but I can’t right now because I’m waiting in the back while my dad gives a seminar.  (I love it when he gives seminars, because I get to sing while people are coming in. 😉 )  So, I’ll just have to ignore the “music” side of it for now and a…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Ah, my new favourite at the moment is The Secret Garden.

@seekjustice I’m going back to our old question: Have you listened to any new musicals lately? 😉

@xonos-darkgrate Well, if you’re here now, the normal question is “What are you working on?” to start things out. 🙂 So, are you working on anything at the moment? Research, outlining, planning, brainstorming, or actually writing count. 😉

@xonos-darkgrate Writer’s Corner is a free-for-all where we fangirl(boy) over things and argue quite a lot, usually over topics that have nothing to do with writing.

@rochellaine

That’s good. Well, I’m not writing anything yet…but hopefully I will be soon.

@seekjustice Hi!!  That’s okay.  I was too. 😉  How’s it going?  I’ve been desperately waiting for someone to be actually writing instead of just planning because I need to have some word wars.  My book isn’t progressing, and that’s the best way I can think of to force it to write itself. 😛

@xonos-darkgrate Seekjustice may be answering you alrea…[Read more]

@rochellaine Heeelloo!

Sorry I didn’t talk much over the weekend. I was crazily busy.

@xonos-darkgrate

Welcome back! I remember you, but I’m not sure that you would remember me.

@seekjustice @valtmy @dekreel @ariel-ashira @alia

I’m on now.  I’ll be off and on for a little while, probably.

@jenwriter17 Hey, I saw this topic and realized I never replied to it. 😮

Are you still planning on doing this?

@xonos-darkgrate Hi!  I remember seeing you around here, though I don’t believe we’ve ever directly spoken – er – posted to each other before. 😉 You know @dekreel don’t you?

(I have successfully posted a GIF…once…)

Anyway, welcome back to KP. 🙂

@xonos-darkgrate Nope.  I’m working torward it though.

@xonos-darkgrate Well, I love history, so research isn’t a chore to me. 🙂

Have you ever finished or published a book?

@xonos-darkgrate I write mostly historical fiction, but have some ideas for a dystopian.  Since I have so many I want to write, I try to just focus on a couple at once.

Do you write book length poems?  I write poems, but not book length.

@valtmy @dekreel @kaya-young @seekjustice @jenwriter17

Thank you!  This is helpful.  I also read an older article Reagan Ramm wrote about cussing in stories, which had some good thoughts.
