I love coming up with names! What I usually do is take randomly long words from the dictionary and take out random letters from them. I.E. Peradventure would make Paventra. @aelle

*trudges through sand dunes.*
I can write, I have no idea what to write about, but I’ll try. I’ll have a short break at some point, but it won’t be long.
@kate-flournoy @daeus
*Sand everywhere* Any suggestions of what to do….? -

But to cheer you all up…….
THE HOBBIT.
@daeus Can you please find out where people can get the book if they need a copy. Everyone else get your copy and start reading the first two chapters. You’ve got a week to read them and then on the 9th of September we’ll start.

@sarah-h I took a photo of the poem and then pretended that I was changing my profile pic. That allowed me to get a link and post it here. 🙂

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic May I ask for some help? -World Naming- in the forum Fantasy 10 years ago
Not silly at all @Aella. Actually, I just take words and twist them up and see what I can make of them. Often it’s chance. Once I spelled ‘riveting’ wrong due to tangled fingers, and ended up with ‘Ivreton’. 😛
It also depends on what image you want to evoke with the name. Dignified? Try Eliandor. Fairytale-ish? Phantasmornia. Cute? Bellesmere.…[Read more] -
Greta replied to the topic Why We Do This in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years ago
I actually wrote a poem about why I write:
Words of Life
Words are nothing,
Unless I make them something.
Words speak love or hate,
Bring people together or isolate.
Words hold the power,
To help people stand or cause them to cower.
Words force some into a hole of depression,
And leave them alone in this cruel condition.
Too many works…[Read more]

@Jess That doesn’t sound bad at all. It’s not a sin to be depressed. I have a cousin who had depression for a while, and she’s a Christian. Following Jesus doesn’t mean that we aren’t going to have hurt and hardships in our lives, so I don’t think it’s “wrong” to be a Christian and be depressed. Jesus didn’t look down at you and think, “Why is…[Read more]

@Bluejay Unfortunately, with school starting and everything, I’m going to have to sit this one out. 🙁 And you’ll do great as the club manager, so don’t worry. 😉

@Jess that’s not terrible at all. I’ve never really struggled with depression, but I completely understand how writing could be an escape, and that’s okay. It’s good to get away now and then. Even if it’s only a virtual vacation. 😉
Not to mention writing can almost be therapeutic— as @Spradlin said, if I haven’t written for longer than normal…[Read more] - Load More
