@Sam-Kowal ooh I really like it! Super cool concept. I think I’d definitely pick it up and read it.

On a more writerly note, the synopsis itself is well written, but it does seem a little choppy in places. It may simply be a case of too many fragments. Also, this is bugging me a little and it’s probably just me. But the voice is inconsistent……[Read more]

Let’s see if I can get more writing done… Care to join me?

@sam-kowal Oh, it’s not a set rule.  Tell Stan he should revive himself, because I do believe in dragons.

I prefer realism to fantasy, but I did enjoy Chuck Black’s Kingdom and Knights series, as well as Frank Peretti’s Cooper Kids books.  Dystopian isn’t really my thing, either.  For future imaginings I like Star Trek where Earth is fine, almost…[Read more]

Congratulations, @epicaddie2, you have created a ten-page trend!

@aratrea  @jenali  @sleepwalkingmk  @gh24682468999  @notawriter  @daughteroftheking  Thank you all! XD

N.C., very obsessive and observant binge-watching

@sam-kowal  I have made a topic for that before, actually XD

@sam-kowal My automatic response to “would you read it?” was no, when I saw that it was fantasy. 😀  But as I read the synopsis I felt drawn into the idea, and it does sound really interesting.  So, would I pick up the book from a shelf?  Probably not, because I don’t to fantasy.  But would someone who was into fantasy like it?  I’m sure, yes.…[Read more]

@notawriter Oh, by the way, I don’t think she’s really going to be in a relationship.  Derek’s more the “love interest” than the boyfriend.

And her relationship with God will be developed too, so don’t worry about her friends having to fix all her problems.  Some of the counseling from them will probably have to do with how to grow closer to Ch…[Read more]

(I think there are some organizational issues with this post, but I hope it’s not to hard to read. 🙂 )

@notawriter He is a problem that Chara has to work through?  How do you mean?  If you’re talking about a huge emotional debate about whether or not he’s good enough for her, I really wouldn’t like that. 😀

About a relationship fixing is…[Read more]

I looked up this Forum thread for something that happened to me today xD

So I was world-building on this whiteboard and I drew this blob as an outline for my country/city, and my brother, joking the blob was meant to be a head, gave it a face and a stick-figure body, and I decided to do further world-building in my notebook and my notebook only 😀

@dekreel That’s perfect!! So funny 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

@valtmy The “obvious” thing might actually be a pet peeve of mine… but overall to eliminate it I suppose you’d make the two people who are destined for each other be indifferent to one another, but they never really consider each other in “that” way.

And for the sensitive/artsy guy with the strong female protagonist, I guess it might be a trope…[Read more]

@seekjustice Bye!

@seekjustice We used to sing “So Long, Farewell!” almost every time guests left our house.  😀

Um, yeah, me too.  I’d probably be horrified for two seconds, and then realize the joke and laugh.  🙂

@seekjustice Speaking of not liking dead things, I read a book once where a snobby girl wanted to get into a girls’ club at her school, and she asked one of the latest pledges what the initiation was like.  The pledge knew how snobby that girl was, so she decided to tease her by saying something about how they “Gave us some dead animal to eat!  B…[Read more]

@seekjustice  “Brains exposed”  Ooooooohh….! 83

@rochellaine  Hi! Glad you could join us!

I gotta split now. Got distracted reading comics XD

But I wrote something! See you guys later

@seekjustice @clairec @dekreel Hi-lo!  I’m here now!

@clairec  A bull’s eye?! Cooooool 8-D

Now I really want to dissect an eye…

Have you ever dissected an owl pellet? I did it in middle school. It was cool! Most of the pellets were mice, but one of my friends had a bird!

@seekjustice  Whoa, that’s cool!

What languages do they speak in Australia other then English? Spanish is by far the most common, after English, where I live in America
