More than I did @daeus, but I did have to do some research on kittens and stuff… 🙂 So I got 465.
@anna-brie are you continuing till 11:30??? (I am.)

Oh! Oh oh oh, I remembered something else I was going to say. There’s a way to take an ending that would be completely bitter and add an element of sweet into it without reducing the bitterness.
I’m thinking specifically of one of my own novels here, but there have been countless others to employ this tactic. ToTC, to name just one.
The trick is…[Read more]

@daeus I’m here and ready. @anna-brie I can go till 11:30 if you want. That is half an hour more than what Daeus is going to do. (9 for them is 11 for us)

Okay @Daeus I will grant you those are all very valid points. I actually do agree— the ending of tLotR really doesn’t have near as much meaning by itself as it does if you read all the trivia and history and world-building that made that departure significant. Which is too long to go into here… 😛

A good example of the bittersweet (actually…[Read more]

There are no words for the awesomeness of this topic @Daeus. I can finally unload. *rubs hands, chuckles evilly*

Actually don’t worry, I don’t think I have just tons and tons of stuff to dump off on you yet. 😉

Just a few points for now. The first being that it has to be unexpected. It has to be in some way different than the reader was…[Read more]

Hmm, not sure that made the most sense @his-instrument. the b makes things bold. the i italicizes (just make sure you highlight what you want changed. and b-quote is if you are quoting what someone else says. Maybe that is explained a bit better. If you want to know anything else, I’m sure there is someone else out there more experienced than I am. 🙂

(I can’t figure out how to italicize…sorry!)

When you are typing a post you have the options for b i link

b-quote

Does that help?

@hope @gretald Yes I have seen it. In fact I posted that question just after I watched it. I haven’t seen Fireproof or Courageous as of yet, but I’ve seen the first two. That movie makes me CRY LIKE CRAZY!!!! It was very well done. And there are some very VERY VERY funny moments in there. And a great battle plan. PRAYER!

@ingridrd and @bluejay we must be twins with different ages and different parents. 🙂

Haha There’s a story idea for you. Only we’d have to be triplets, not twins.
Oo I love Emily Elizabeth Black’s music too. I can play one of her simple songs on the keyboard, but my younger sister is much better than me.
🙂 😛 😀

Literally laughing out loud when I read that. 😛 @spradlin

Hey, welcome @winter-rose!! I play piano too (and violin). What type of fantasy do you read? LOTR? I draw too! Mostly animals. Have you tried acrylic or oil painting? That’s always fun. Oh cool! Another archer! 😉 I have a compound bow, but I’ve always wanted to try a recurve bow. Someday I’d really like to try bow hunting.
Again, welcome! Glad…[Read more]

Will do.

I got it. Sounds great!

Sounds good!

Haha @spradlin 😛

I’ve dug my book out. Ready and reporting for reading.

Combinations transform into emoticons, but I only know some of the simple ones. : ) (with no spaces) gives you 🙂 for example. ; ) gives you 😉 and : P gives you 😛 Beyond that, I’m not sure though you can look up online guides for all kinds of things.

@Daeus Yes! Can’t wait to start. 🙂
