I’ll do that. 😀

Well who says you can’t be a medieval belt and cloak person and an elf hat and poncho person at the same time, @writefury?

I am.

What kind of hats do elves wear, anyway? 😛

Okay, yes, you did say that— sorry. My bad. It sounded like you were saying you would be posting excerpts from your work on your site, and would be glad if other people would do that with their own work on their own sites. But I read it wrong.

I have a cold.

What? That’s not a fit excuse? 😛

Welcome, Joy! I’ve only been on KP for a short time, but from what I’ve seen so far there’s an awesome community of Christian teen writers here. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have!

As I’ve told my sister, I’ve not come to a final decision about the cloak…I’ll talk to Mom about it first. But it’s as much fun to scandalize Joy about things I’d like to do as it is to actually do them. 🙂

Aw come on you guys… have a heart. 😛

Yeah, looks like you have some great storylines going there @joy-schmidt!

With your story, did you mean, @Daeus? Or are you tired of all the excerpts posted on this forum? 😛

Your story doesn’t sound bad at all, Joy. One thing I noticed right off is that you seem to have only two or three MC’s— and that’s good. I really admire that… because I seem physically unable to do a story with less than five or six. 😛

@Joy-Schimdt— I would trust Hope. She has my vote of confidence. That’s the nice thing about having another writer in your family— you can always ask each other for advice, whether you do it across the room or computer to computer. 😛

@Daeus— your book sounds fascinating. I’ll beta read it for you— really I will. I owe you one, after all.…[Read more]

Except…I really liked that book. Well, as much as I knew of it anyway. 🙁 Write another story using the same theme and characters.

And why am I writing this to you when you’re sitting across from me talking to me and distracting me from writing this to you?

Of course publishing for free counts. That’s what I’ve been doing here. 😉

Is it a crime? Certainly not! If you can’t find anything at all worth pursuing in it, just let it go. But you need to be certain there’s really nothing of worth in it— don’t just determine that by how you feel about it right now. Here’s a really good article that may help with this— Awesome Writing Article

Well, I like this. Overall it’s very good. 😀

Daeus got most of it, but I just wanted say I was a little confused about when Connor starts talking to Mal. First we see Connor talking to the guide, and are taken back to when Connor had been listening to the boring receptionist. Then we have

That last one perked up my ears and I’d glanced over a…

Hello, Joy. Welcome regardless of how often you write, or whether or not you understand just exactly how crazy real writers can be. 😛

If you hang around this site long enough, *cue evil laugh* you will begin to find yourself understanding more and more… falling deeper and deeper into the pit… becoming a real writer yourself, even! Horrors!…[Read more]

How about ‘I am just weird and so I want to wear the cloak to see everyone’s reactions?’

That depends on the definition of writer. You only write as a hobby every month or so instead of sticking with something and doing it. And I want to read your stories. 🙁 Also, you don’t understand my writer excuses for things. Like me wanting to wear my homemade cloak to the finals of our theology class. 😉
