Oh, i need to get some writing done so I will definitely be participating. Maybe I’ll write today and then wait a day or to for the soreness from today to go away before posting XD it looks like you’ve already had a workout here

@loopylin

XD painfully relatable is what I was going for! Yep, he needs his bestie.

Mind if I add my two cents about God in stories?

Writing God into a story is really really hard, and it’s not something I would want to mess up. It can go well, or it can go badly. A lot of you here are familiar with the wingfeather saga, which was written by a Christian, but I…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @freed_and_redeemed

I love this😭😭 so well put and so true.

That’s part of the reason why I write such deeper, even darker stories too. I think it’s something that needs to be addressed more. Cheers to you, girlie💖

Awww thank you guys 😭😭💗

@whalekeeper

Of course! By the way, I didn’t mean to sound like I disagree with anything you said. When I said you touched nerves, I meant those thoughts felt very applicable to second-hand pain I have… kind have gone through? Through empathy? Your experience is ten times more direct than mine 😅 I’m thankful to hear your perspective.

@whalekeeper

Ok, That’s alright. You know I’ll always give you my honest opinion and we can’t possibly agree on everything.  Thanks for being kind about it.💗

@ellette-giselle

Oh yes!! I think I’ve seen the quote ‘through darkness, the light shines brightest’ in a couple of kp signatures, which is kinda what you’re saying.

I think I like writing things that can be dark because it’s relatable. I find that some of the Christian places I’ve known in the past aren’t willing to deal with the idea of…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Our Last Hope sounds really cool!!! Yeah, why is it that the darker plots are more intriguing? lol. (Well, I know why they are to me, but no need to branch off on random topics.)

Thank you! I don’t work on it really often but it’s kinda my pride and joy as far as projects go XD

Hey, branching off is what we do here. I’ll listen…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

You and me both girl XD isn’t the point of writing to do something different?

Yesss! Atoh is my priority but I really enjoy my other one.

Yeah, it’s rough. Well, maybe I can help you see another perspective on your mom. I know her chronic illness is different than mine, but depression is common to a lot of chronic illnesses.

One…[Read more]

@lightoverdarkness6

Awww yess I made you melt! Or well, Tauren probably did XD
Thanks girl!

@whalekeeper

That sounds really cool! Yeah, I think I tend to plot the most for the climax and not do as much for the rest. XD

I feel like a ending that depends on the rest of the story is the best. Anyone can make a generic ending, but having one like that makes it more special.

Y’know it doesn’t feel too alien even though it’s really…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Really?? That’s so cool! I can’t imagine how that must feel.

I’ve been thinking about my secondary project (Our last Hope) for a bit now and I’ve almost completely gotten the beginning figured out. I’m actually finding that writing a tight plot is easier than a loose slice of life style (My story with Tauren). There are distinct…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

Aww Tauren😭😭 He’s so adorably awkward I just wanna give him a hug <3

And I can completely relate…I’ve had interactions like that before as well😂

And ahhhhh girlll the scene you posted before this one was sooooo cuteee, I literally melted🥰🥰

@esther-c

I’ve made it a point in the past year or so to make eye contact when I’m listening to someone, but sometimes I start thinking of ways I’d describe their eyes in a book and stop paying attention to what they’re actually saying. 🫣😂

XD I used to trace people’s faces with different colors and try to figure out the dimensions of their face. L…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @loopylin @freed_and_redeemed @lightoverdarkness6 @anyone else

Guys do you want to read a really awkward scene

Btw I have had some social interaction almost this bad bc this is how my brain works XD I hope it pains you deeply

Tauren meanders around the side of the dance floor, watching as Lesli takes her turn with somebody…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

We’re talking about a different movie XD

But I do hope to watch your rec too

@esther-c

Yeah it was really good!

@felicity

Oh my goodness hey!!!

Oh, good luck with that! Sounds like fun and uh stress… lol.

Aw thank you 🥰🥰

@mineralizedwritings

Oh my goodness it’s been ages since I’ve been on here (yes you were right. been busy with college prep actually :0) and I randomly popped on today to find this!! Thanks for the tag! I love reading your writing! <3 My favorite part of this scene is Lesli treating Tauren like a kid and him calling her “mom” lol. 🙂 Keep up the…[Read more]
