@Aratrea @TheLiteraryCrusader okay, do either of you know what the last five buttons after img are for? They just seem to have done weird things with indents… any clue what the actual abbreviations on the buttons stand for?

No hurry. Just be good to know. 😛

@christi-eaton whoa!! Those are beautiful!

@emily ooooh yeah those… I won’t agree with Shannon that they’re the best, but they come in second place.

@ingridrd very good ones! 🙂

@emily what I meant is” what is the offending series shannon claims is better?”

@catwing *heart swells in delight* Zita the Spacegirl!!!!!!! I love those books! BTW his name is “Hatke” :-3
I follow the comics online – we don’t have newspaper either. 😉
What’s Mighty Jack about? I didn’t know he wrote anything else other than Zita.

@christi-eaton Howl’s Moving Castle is a book?! Who wrote it? 😀
OOOOH, A.S. Peterson! I didn’t know he wrote books! Isn’t he Andrew Peterson’s son? I might just check him out

@cloudy, Apologies for being a little late… Those are all awesome!

@christi-eaton you said they are “ink pictures.” Do they have to be drawn completely in ink, or could I like outline it in pencil, cause I like doing that. Or do you not know that? I like drawing too, so I wanna check this out…

@emily may I ask what the suspect series is??

@emily ooohh!! lovely!

@emily bye! I’m retiring now as well!

@emily ooh learning together (goes and see’s if there’s a KP article on killing a character for the first time….) 😛

@emily thanks! I didn’t think so but then I’ve never really written anything with death in it and I wanted to delicately handle it.

@Dekreel I don’t really have problems in this quarter because I’m very good at just ignoring all my horrible mistakes in a first draft. And I also enjoy rewriting the full novel because it’s fun seeing the massive improvement in it. xD But still, I have friends who struggle with this. Three things you can try:

1: (as Kate said) write in…[Read more]

@emily whattttt!!! How could she!

@Kballen so exciting that you’re doing NaNo!! (I am too.) Like the others have said, having an outline is very helpful, and so is having a group of encouraging buddies who can spur you on in writing. That was one of the things that helped me most. 🙂
K.M. Weiland has a bunch of great advice on NaNo (here’s a link if you want to check it out).

@ingridrd Oh yay! (Some how I didn’t see your post….)
Well thank you

@emily Yes I know but the story starts out with baby already having passed away so there’s not a whole lot of attach meant. Well is it morbid? I’m trying for it not to be.

@ingridrd Bye!!!

@ingridrd @emily can you guys give me some quick feed back?
Is this to weird, or morbid at all?

I walked to the cradle and gently lifted my daughter from it. She seemed so much more fragile in death than in life.
The baby has been dead a few hours at this point in the story. (Haha huge spoiler…)
