@Jane-Maree One sitting?! 😮 *hands you lots of pizza*
SO MUCH EPICNESS. And the feelz.

@Northerner That’s so wonderful. 😀 Great.

@Jane-Maree YOU’VE READ IT TOO EEP I’M SO HAPPY.

@Kate-Flournoy Mmkay, I thought it must’ve been that. 😛

@Dragon-Snapper *chokes* W-well, I guess… thank you?? 😛 *cough* I’m sorry… perhaps you can write one, eh? *winks**chuckles*

@Emma-Flournoy heh… *grins* I popped up unannounced in her google doc and opened the chat and said hi. 😀

@Kate-Flournoy Welp, had to be honest. *nonchalant shrug* Besides, I told her you weren’t active yet. 😉
@Rolena-Hatfield You and me both, sista. 😀 I know she’s got lots of awesome stuff planned.
And indeed you should catch up on BM.

Glad to be of service. 🙂

Btw Kate, what did you do to @That_Writer_Girl_99?

@kate-flournoy

‘Hey, why are you cleaning the fridge?’
Bob slapped his soaking rag down on the floor of the fridge, twisted his head, and glared up at her over his shoulder.
She gave a little grin and shrugged. ‘All right…’

Nuts. Now I want to write a story completely based off of that.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 there’s a button at the top of the document with a word bubble on it, where it shows who’s logged in. Just click it. 😉

@That_Writer_Girl_99 *hysterical laughter* It was too good of an opportunity to pass up.

@Emma-Flournoy sneaky! XD I wasn’t ready yet…

@Rolena-Hatfield I like a variety of stuff—I wouldn’t like it all to be only on one subject. Not even writing. 😉 I love the philosophical musings sort a ton; the occasional story; and OF COURSE the bloggers whose blogs are personal.
@Ethryndal‘s blog is my current favorite; this is another one but she‘s not very active yet. Finishing school…[Read more]

@Anne-of-Lothlorien This sounds very ignorant, but—what’s a root canal? Is it some sort of tooth thing?
And yeah, I’ll be praying. 😀

@That_Writer_Girl_99 oooh— cool flashback! I love it. *grins* Good job.

@Holly-Nelson-Gray yeah… what they said. 😉

This may be a somewhat random tangent of this topic, but I’ve found that a lot of times body language can be used to replace dialogue and automatically include more description. Instead of ‘Hey, why are you cleaning the fridge?’
‘Because it’s dirty and needs cleaning and I’m disgusted about it, that’s…[Read more]

@brandon-miller There’s a sci-fi month!!! AAAIII!!! I can’t wait!

@holly-nelson-gray Aloha!
Dialogue I think is probably more important than description, though description is definitely important. Dialogue shows how the characters interact with each other, and it can also add a bit of setting as well. As for description, you can have some, just be sure to avoid info-dumps. I always skip those.

@jadamae Haha! Yes, I know what you mean. “In Which I Fall in Love” isn’t spoilery at all, is it? (I’ve read a book with that exact chapter title.)
