“You only ever show up to tell me things I don’t want to hear!”
This has got to be my new motto. xD Nicely done. I laughed while reading it.

@Aratrea The 19th won’t work, but the 21st, afternoon or evening would.

Analyzing other stories for theme lessons that you can apply to your own stories is an awesome course of action to take. Since last summer, I’ve kept an excel sheet of all the stories I’ve read/watched and the storytelling applications I can glean from them, and that’s been incredibly helpful in my own journey as a writer.

@jenali Awesome–thanks for making all that clear. Those look like good foils. I especially like the potential for interplay you have within the antagonists, specifically thinking about Manel and Tekal’s similar views on loyalty.

Thanks for letting me know what works for you all! Sounds like it’s harder to find a good date for everyone this time around. By any chance, would the 19th or the 21st at the same time work any better? If enough people say by Sunday night that one of those times would work better, we’ll do that. Otherwise, we’ll do the 13th or…[Read more]

@theliterarycrusader Interesting request. I shall be done, my liege. On the point of confetti, I already have a name for the farm: KeePer Confetti Farms.
@jess I like the disappearing thing. Maybe that’s how Josiah disappears and appears so quickly.

@Aratrea my future course? Since I’ve already gone through all my next ten ideas and mapped out their themes in excruciating detail, I suppose you mean more futurely than that… um… continue? XD Pick other stories to pieces and keep learning and applying as I do, hopefully.
Seriously. There are no words for how amazing this was. I am…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper A villain’s minions who are great shots. Also a petition to include @Michael-stanton as the evil overlord. And possibly give Josiah a brother who contradicts him at every turn and is obsessed with hair-styles (all kinds on everybody). XD

Maybe my obsession with psychology… or those of us who are devoted Kylo Ren fans as opposed to otherwise. :’D

@Dragon-Snapper I vote for a sequel! Ummm… I can’t think of anything right off the top of my head I particularly want, but I’ll let you know if I do. 😀
