*host site, not sight.
And do I need to download one? What did you use, @Daeus and @Ivyrose?

Hope Ann replied to the topic WordPress in the forum General Writing Discussions 10 years, 7 months ago
I’ve been looking up wordpress.org (I was on .com before) and apparently part of the difference is that I can make no sense of how to get started. How do I choose a host sight and what, in normal language, is a web server…how do I even start this? Help, please!

OK, I will. What is the difference?

I paused and crouched beside the remains of an old building. The loose rocks crumbled as my shoulder brushed them. I ground my teeth in frustration. This job needed absolute silence. The rain made things hard to see, but I knew that any further and I’d go over the edge of the cliff.
Quickly I scanned the skies for my transport. A flutter of wings…[Read more] -

Oh yes @Belegteleri and @Daeus, I do that ALL THE TIME. Especially the ‘being interviewed’ one— I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve done that and on how many different topics. 😛

@jadamae I saw in the comments to my story, Princess Tess and the Perfect Story, that you’d love to read the rest. Well, here you go. Enjoy!
Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful princess. Which is how all good princess stories should start. She was as gentle as a lamb, as graceful as a dove and as rich as, well, as rich as could be. She…[Read more]

Oh yes… *blushes embarrassedly* I talk to myself (well, not really myself) all the time. I also find I talk to my toy dog, who I have had for 16 years. He is very good at listening, always patient, never condemns me, or laughs at me, (like some people.) *glances around shiftily* And he does give some really good answers when he’s a mind too.…[Read more]

Also, I was looking at the top of this website…is one row of tabs pages and the other a menu? Or are they both menus? I assume if I make my menu the main navigation tab, only the things I put there will show up.

Thanks, @daeus. I’ve spent part of the afternoon messing around on WordPress and now that I see all the things I can do, I’m wondering why I didn’t start there. 😉 One question, where does one go to create a category. And do you know what exactly the portfolio tab does? Could I link books there?

I’m considering moving my blog from blogger to wordpress. Who here has a WordPress blog? Does anyone have some helpful tips as I try to find my way around? And does anyone know how the menus work, if you can create a linked page, and if you can post to individual pages or if all your blog posts go to the home page (like blogger)?

Reporting for duty. 😛
Yup, I talk to myself all the time. And this trick with colors is actually something I’ve known for a while. Only I usually don’t take it from the colors to the personality— I see the personality, and I assign them the color that fits them. Some can be quite complex mixtures of color, actually— and their color doesn’t…[Read more]

Yes, wes talks to ourself all the time, precious. 😉 Well, not out loud unless I’m alone, but I do think to myself. Yes, that’s a thing. I have whole conversations in first/second person, making myself laugh in the process. Is that crazy enough?
Love your color characters, by the way. 😉

“Ow!”
A pirates passing me had punched me right in the gut. Aye, I knowed ‘e was playin’, but it still hurt me feelings. And punches hurt! He didn’t even notice that I started a-crying–until he looked back o’er at me. Aye, I hed a bit o’ a reputation for being a “softy.” But, I ter tell yer the truth, I weren’t no softy.

@Daeus, Haha, great story!
@writefury and @kate-flournoy, I was laughing so hard when I read that the pet frog died and was then resurrected. XD

Great poem @belegteleri. And my mum would love you. She’s always trying to teach us the difference between to and too; your and you’re; its and it’s and so on. (I’m at least getting better. :))

That’s so fun, @Rolena-Hatfield! And @Writefury, if I was going to kill him, it’s only fair you make him come back. 😛
I’ll wait awhile and see if anyone else wants to do that prompt, Rolena, then do it myself if it doesn’t get a reply after a bit. 🙂 -

Enclave publishing has a list of Christian conferences that I found. Here it is if anyone is interested. I haven’t looked though them all yet, but am hoping to go to one this year. (I’ve divided up the link because it’s not letting me post it).
