I’ve only ever seen TFA, but I want to see the rest. And I have had episodes 1-6 quoted to me by my brother. (every line, went for a whole day.) And the music. The music was played at the right times. So, I’ve heard the whole lot?

HAAAA! XD He must’ve seen it a few times.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 Did you pass?

@alia Yup. 🙂

Guys!!! *flails*
I just found something awesome!
Have you ever heard of 4thewords?
It’s an awesome online writing video game! So basically, it gets you going on this ‘rpg’ game, where you fight monsters and go on quests and do cool stuff. To fight the monsters, you are timed and have to write a certain amount of words within that time. Usually,…[Read more]

@Daeus Congratulations. The world could use more of those. 😉

@allison-grace Have you heard the song Journey into the Star Cluster?

@jane-maree @seekjustice I’m headed out now. I finished editing a chapter, and sent off a whole lot of story-related emails that needed to be sent. Bye!

@jane-maree PIZZAAA!!! Sweet. Thanks!
@seekjustice You are wise. I should have done the same. *nods sagely*

@seekjustice Ah…wish I’d done that. XD Some of the silly mistakes–I had three names for one character.

@seekjustice I’m editing my novel, Sector One: Insurrection. You?

@seekjustice I’ll join you if you’re on, and to anyone else, I’m editing.

@bethanysinkyroses that would be @sierra-r and I have forgotten Cindy’s as well. 😛

The first thing that strikes me as I read your summary here is that you’ve focused a lot on symbolism.
That’s a good thing. But it can also be a hindrance. In my experience, when I focus too much on the symbolism of a thing, it comes out one-dimensional as only…[Read more]

Brutally honest post

A four. It’s sprawling and epic and boring. It seems like you want to tackle too many things at once. I wouldn’t worry about weirdness. But if you (personally) believe the story is as you described above, then I think it’ll be too big to handle. You can still keep (probably) all those elements, but if you think that’s what…[Read more]

Only if you make it cliche. Cliche means it’s overdone. It’s something the audience has seen before. It’s predictable. So, sure, go ahead and start with a “cliche” premise. But as the story progresses make it unpredictable. Then those surprising moments will be what the audience will remember. Not your “cliche: premise.

@warrioroftherealm no character is ever cliche if they are approached as a person with a logical reason for being who and where they are in life. It sounds like this woman has a very good reason for being ‘strong’.

At the same time, I think ‘strong woman’ is frequently misunderstood or misinterpreted. A strong woman is not a masculine woman. A…[Read more]

@kballen Hi! Are you joining me? 😀
I’m working on my WIP, on a very slow and very annoying sequence on scenes. It’ll pick up eventually, but these humps are…hard to get over. 😛

@salome01w4g @jessi-rae @epicaddie2 @anyoneelse I’m on.

@livylynn This sounds so awesome! If I wasn’t so busy, I would definitely read it. 🙂

@catwing @Emily @epicaddie2 @salome01w4g @anyone I’m working on my science fair project, and then hopefully on to writing!
