@BethanySinkyRoses welp, the resources you already have are great. I learned the hard way— trial, error, and observation 😛 — so I don’t have any others to suggest, but let me tag a few of our more *cough* knowledgeable members and see if they have any suggestions for you.

@Aratrea well sign me up after all, I guess. 😛 If my camera decides it wants to work, I shall try my hardest to get a video. No promises, but I’ll try. ;P

@graciegirl As long as it isn’t the full name of any famous person (whether living or deceased), overly abstract or silly, a penname is fine. 🙂
@bethanysinkyroses Yes–that would be fine! Ideally we’ll have people from all over the spectrum–some who have been here for a while and some who have joined recently, so that would be no problem.

@bethanysinkyroses Thanks for that conference recommendation! As Michael mentioned, we’ll need to talk as a team about how much of an investment it’s worth to attend these conferences, but I’d definitely love to attend more of them if we can make them financially feasible for us. I’ll add that convention to our list of potential conferences next year.

@sleepwalkingmk Good set of answers there. I might slightly alter the “family/parents” answer to focus more on the value of family than an un-nuanced approach to obedience, though. Whether you choose to always obey your parents or not seems to be a different issue than if you view them as the most important thing in your life.
How would you…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 welcome to the club. 😉
Remember, my dear— if it’s plot that’s got you down, let the characters take over and write the story for you.
If it’s discouragement and doubt… let God. He can write a story, remember? Surrender is easier said than done, but once done it’s so worth it. Because as long as it’s your story you’re…[Read more] -

@Aratrea dah! I would love this but my webcam camera setting is broken and I don’t have a phone. 🙁 🙁 🙁

Hey all,
One of our goals for this year is to better cultivate our forum community. Part of that has to do with re-organizing forum topics and finding a better forum software that’s mobile-friendly and offers other benefits like a list of active topics. But part of that also has to do with getting more people on the forum, as we’d love to watch…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 hmmm… yes. Writing can be a ticklish business. 😛 As always, I’m here if you think there’s anything I can do to help, but I really do have faith that you’ll be able to figure it out on your own.

@Timothy-Young errgg. *comical grimace* I’m sorry, force of habit. 😛 EiL stands for Experiment in Living— a term that now dominates my thematic brainstorming because of KP’s amazing Theme Mastery Course they released recently and that absolutely changed my life and that every serious writer ever should always and forever get and learn from…[Read more]

@winter-rose Love it! Collages are so much fun, though it’s been a bit since I’ve made one.

Hope Ann replied to the topic Handout for Distribution Among Friends: Brainstorming Needed in the forum Stewards of the Pen 9 years, 2 months ago
Yes, the logo, site address, and motto. The name and tagline could be at the top, a few bullet type mentions below that, the address at the bottom, and then the back could be free for notes. What do you think, @bethanysinkyroses?
