@Sarah-H I can’t remember where you mentioned this; I thought it was on the Prayer Requests topic, but I looked there and couldn’t find it. I think it was you who said it though…How did your brother’s online evolution vs. creation debate turn out?

@Sarah-H Oh, I know. That’s very inspiring.
How did Henty know he was right? I though there was very little known about Wallace—most of his history just came from a ballad?

URGENT: I believe many of the writers on here enjoy listening to the music of the Piano Guys. One of them, Jon Schmidt, is in desperate need of our prayers right now. On Wednesday, Oct. 19, it was discovered his 21 year old daughter, Annie, had not been seen since the previous Sunday. Search and rescue teams found her car parked at a trail head in…[Read more]

@winter-rose I’ve finished the letter and it was 699 words long. 🙂 And since I have no story idea in my head, I’m going to stop now. Let me know how you go. 🙂 Please.

I’ll be writing too, and I’ll be glad to join you, @winter-rose , or anyone else if they’d like to write with me. I’m going to be researching and writing notes/jibberish for an essay I have to write. I think it’s going to be about why the bees are disappearing. I’ll be writing for an hour.

@Sarah-H Nope, I haven’t read that one. I don’t like Henty all that well either. 😛 What makes it one of your favorite books if you’re not a Henty fan?

Heeeeyyy! In Freedom’s Cause, I’ve read that one. It’s been awhile, but I remember it being not too bad for a Henty.
High praise, I know. 😛And Scottish Chiefs is definitely worth reading. Not the best written in all aspects by any means, but I still enjoyed it quite a bit.

@sleepwalkingmk My understanding is that English is more focused on grammar and syntax and some of the more technical aspects of the English language, whereas literature is more focused on reading the great books and discussing/analyzing them. There’s a fair bit of overlap, though, between the two majors, but that’s the directions they tend to…[Read more]

Congradulistactions, @dragon-snapper!!! It is so nice to complete a novel, no matter how many years *coughs* I mean, months, follow. *smirks* I’m so encouraging, aren’t I? Seriously though, congratulations. 🙂 80,000 words is quite the achievement.

Snapper replied to the topic Fall and Winter Goals: Writing Club in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 10 months ago
Thanks @jess
It’s crazy exciting, this being my first novel.
For anyone who’s wondering, the first draft so far is about 80,000 words. 4 months. Thus begins the editing stage. -

@emma-flournoy It turned out really well, actually. There were two people who were attacking him and using bad language instead of logic to argue, but now they are actually on friendly terms, although they still disagree. I think he was more able to reach the others who were on the sidelines and weren’t really sure what to believe.
Oh, that’s really good!
