@emily no its not actually over until the 30th, but I’ve already got 50k words which is the target, so I finished early.
@sam-kowal its basically a thread where we complain about our WIPs as we write them and encourage each other. Sometimes have word wars and sprints and that sort of thing.

@silverclaw-bonnetfolly Actually they meet Dekreel because he lives there, and the riddler specifically wants Time Lords (don’t ask why) which is why the Fifth is there too. He basically lured the TARDISes to the planet.
@that_writer_girl_99 The Thirteenth that I’m using is not the same one as Jodie Whittaker’s Doctor. This one is my Doctor. I s…[Read more]

Silverclaw Bonnetfolly replied to the topic Writing Letters Within a Book in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago
Going along with what @sam-kowal said, if letters took forever to get somewhere they might also write the letter for a week or so just to get everything into the letter as they aren’t going to write another one for a while.

@inkling-for-christ Thanks for the advice! I should probably check out that book. I’m guessing the Inklings is the inspiration for your username right? — really cool.
@sam-kowal Thanks for sharing! Could you clarify, though, what you mean about fantasy being a good genre for sharing the truth?
Personally I feel that as fantasy is usually…[Read more]

@shannon, I would add more but I think @sam-kowal pretty much covered it

@dekreel I think that’s a super cute name for an alien 🙂
@dragon-snapper Better late than never! Thank you. And I’m terribley sorry about that. May you never run out of chairs, then. We wouldn’t want you melting through the floor, now would we? 😉
I have a couple of space operas tucked away, though they’re not current WIPs. Maybe someday I’ll…[Read more] -

@Sam-Kowal thank you. I granted you access. 🙂
@Emily it’s no worry. 🙂 I understand.

Joy replied to the topic A Keeper Adventure in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago
@catwing So far it’s going well. I have made a list of about ten characters, and I’m attempting to plan a map of the world, including Taranar (Where I live), Ranger’s forest (or something like that… where @epicaddie2 lives), the capital city (I forgot the name… @emily, @daughteroftheking and her tiger, @sam-kowal and his dragon, and a few…[Read more]

@sam-kowal Oh cool!! Right now I’m reading Left Behind: The Kids series over again, and it’s really great. For normal books, I like the Narnia series and Emma of Winds! 🙂
@dekreel Haha, thanks! And sure, why not? What exactly is it (the Keeper adventure)?

Joy replied to the topic A Keeper Adventure in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 5 months ago
@catwing Yeah you’re probably smaller than that. Size proportions isn’t my strong point when it comes to drawing. 😛
Catwing, @daughteroftheking, @emily, @sam-kowal, @lady-iliara, @others-who-have-submitted-characters  Thank you! Putting all of your characters on my list!
Anybody else?? *whistles a hint-hint tone*

Emma Flournoy replied to the topic Hey Everyone in the forum Start HERE 8 years, 5 months ago
@Sam-Kowal Yup, I like to study things too. Studying things is good. *nod*
Oh yeah, sort of. ;P
Unless your family is just as crazy as you are. And even in which case, you’d still rather be alone when you break down. XD
HA, exactly! A titanium steamroller. That’s perfect. No, neither Sanderson nor Hugo are kind to their characters.
But that’s…[Read more]

Okay, I am making good progress with finding characters! Most of whom I have tagged here have told me that they wanted their characters to be in the story. So, could you please describe your characters? There are a couple of you who already have, but desc…[Read more]

@daeus @winter-rose Haven’t read that yet! I’ve heard about it…
*reads LOKD* *comes back* Nice job, @dragon-snapper! OOOH! Daeus, where’s the sequel???
@sam-kowal Is Stan your dragon? Hmm, I believe that he’s story-eligible! Does he have any special powers? Talents? Loves? *braces self for giant dragon footfalls*

Hiya lovely KeePers! Yep, it’s me. Poking my head out of the cyberspace of nonexistence again… and this time I have a favor to ask.
There’s been quite a bit about the Rooglewood Press fairytale contest floating around, and I’m here to add to the mayhem by letting you know my entry is complete… and I would really appreciate some…[Read more]

@sam-kowal 210 words an hour doesn’t sound too bad, except for the fact that I’d be up till midnight 😉 As long as I get it done, though.
That’s definitely not too in depth. Not for me, at least. I like science, so it’s all good! I never knew that physical exercise helps your brain function, although that kinda makes sense. It makes your blood…[Read more]

OOH! I love this! Ok, here we go. INSPIRATION STRIKES!!!!
So, basically everything @sam-kowal just said, but then this. So, the messenger (Kirin or Jax?) loves learning history. So when they hear about the Valar, he really wants to see them, even if it’s dangerous. He also dreams of finding the Prince’s Sword and being a hero. The…[Read more]

@catwing Great advice! Thank you! *decides to go outside and watch clouds* *realizes it’s dark out* Oh well. Tomorrow will have to do, I suppose.
@sam-kowal Thank you! *hands you a toothbrush* Erm, for the great advice. You could use it for Stan…?
@emily You should take @catwing‘s and @samkowal’s advice, then. 😉
