Jenna Terese replied to the topic To edit or not to edit… in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 5 months ago
I’d recommend editing it before you move on to book two, because sometimes with editing things change around with the plot and characters and it’d be easier to have those things at least somewhat set in stone before moving on to the next book than to have to do even more editing with the second book. It may have been confusing the way I…[Read more]

Jenna Terese replied to the topic Writing and Jobs in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 5 months ago
That’s a really good question… As much as I want to write full-time (which is pretty much what I do now), I think having other jobs is a good way to gain experience in different areas.

Thank you! Oh wow, a country song? I’m intrigued. 😀 That’s awesome that you’re getting back into writing again! Yup, I’m working on my sequel. I made some pretty good progress yesterday. 🙂 Abbie Emmons is hosting a virtual ‘writing retreat’ during June with writing livestreams every Wednesday, if you’re interested.

To @Lydia-S,
Okay, this is the real message to you. 🙂
Again, that’s neat. What school do you go to?
My all-time favorite book character might be Jo March because I feel like I can deeply relate to her. (Actually, my older sister feels like she can deeply relate to Meg, as well. We’re two peas in a pod, aren’t we?)
My top three authors? Hmm.…[Read more]

Whoops, I am so sorry! @Lydia-S, the first question was for you. @kathleenarmm, the rest was for you. I got a little mixed up, and I started looking at the wrong message after the first paragraph! *bows repeatedly quoting ‘many apologies’*

That’s neat. What school do you go to?
Wow; Korean and Japanese?!! That’s amazing! How did she get around to learning those? What languages are you planning on learning?
Thank you so much for that! I could really use the prayer 🙂 Is there something I can be praying for you about?
Thank you for the warm welcome!

I hope you have better days soon. You’re in my prayers. Congratulations on the job offer! That’s wonderful! 😀 I keep feeling it’s kind of weird that we’re all grown up now… 😛 do you?
I’m doing great. Settling in well to married life. 🙂 It has been strange living so far away from my family now, but they visit pretty…[Read more]

Lin,
It’s nice to meet you, too! I’m curious; where is the quote at the bottom of your comment from?
Yes, I have a fun family. How many siblings do you have? But it’s a joyful (most of the time) chaos. I wouldn’t trade them for the world!
That’s neat. I’ve heard Japanese can be a very difficult language. Are you enjoying it?
Some of my…[Read more]

Thanks for the welcome! Oh, and in case anyone else is reading this comment, I’m sorry to all of you that I took so long answering.
I like milk chocolate best for sure. But… dark chocolate is good too. Oh, that’s neat! When did you learn Spanish? I’m not very far in my Greek journey, but my uncle is teaching me, and I’m loving…[Read more]

Jodi,
That’s neat! I haven’t read much in the dystopian genre, but I love fantasy and historical fiction.
I don’t really know. Each language is unique and beautiful in it’s own way: in Koine Greek, I can discover the hidden truths in Scripture, in German I’m learning a language I’ve wanted to learn for forever (and that’s fun to listen to), and…[Read more]

Welcome back! I’ve not been very active here myself, but if you’re hanging around again, that’s more motivation for me too 😀
I’m drowning. It’s been more stressful lately since I’m being scheduled for a transfer (where to is not known yet). There’s no end to work, but hopefully things will look up after that.
I’m continuing to…[Read more]

Hey there!
I miss chatting and writing with you all. I’ve been finding time to get back into reading lately, which means I should be able to start writing again as well. Hooray!! Anyway, it’s been forever since I’ve been around here, so…how’s everyone doing?

Jenna Terese replied to the topic Synopsis and Taglines! in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 5 months ago
I REALLY like your tag lines! The synopsis is good too; my one suggestion would be to briefly mention why the main character and her friend are being sent off to this circus land. But great job! 😀

Hiya! I’m Faith, and I just joined… (hope I did it right…)
I’m a 16-year-old homeschooler. I have 7 siblings and counting. I am a great lover of ellipses (the grammatical, not mathematical kind. I am not a lover of mathematical anything.) I love chocolate (and my birthday is April 4th, in case you’re wondering). 🙂 I adore languages, and…[Read more]
