@shannon  What’s the Baker Family Adventures like? I’ve seen @emily fangirl about them before…

@dragon-snapper @sam-kowal  Snapper & Stan: The terrible two…  😀

@silverclaw-bonnetfolly  Oh, thanks! That’s very helpful.

@lady-iliara  @0-0enyali0-0  I’m excited, too! Well, I reckon you’re going to have to wait, unfortunately…

@princessfoo  Nice glitter! What a party! *sneezes*

@dekreel  Thanks!

Hey, @overcomer! I am a complete stranger who stumbled upon the lounge… I’m guessing this is a lot like the Writer’s Corner? 🙂

@ingridrd  I’m a bit late, but that looked cool! I want to read the story! 😀 I don’t have any sage advice for you. Just what @emily said.

Last day! How are you guys doing? (I’m not doing NaNoWriMo, but I am feeling concerned for you guys 🙂 )

@nicolerivers03  Welcome to the Bestest Place in Cyberspace!! If you want to introduce yourself less subtly, you can go to the “Start HERE forum.” 😉

@perfectfifths  @daughteroftheking  @shannon  @dragon-snapper  Did anyone see mine? Just checking…

“75 percent chance of science!”

Jaclyn Fallows’ world has a history of turning upside down.

Like when she was suddenly able to create a small blue flame in the palm of her hand on her eighth birthday.  Or when she started having the same dream about the sister who vanished without a trace two years ago.

But now, at fifteen, Jaclyn is in for the biggest change of her life.  A m…[Read more]

@daeus  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  Wow, that flows so much better…I’m gonna rewrite it, using your tips.  🙂

@shannon Yeeeahh. That’s the problem about pansting. Along with a lot of other things…but it can be fun! There is funness to it… 😀

And I’m signing out now, having managed to write an extremely impressive 98 words.

@perfectfifths Completely random guess, probably wrong, but is it the Polar Express?

@shannon Pansting is fun–ah those good old days with no plot whatsoever. *contended and at the same time scared sigh*
And I’m writing my current novel, a futuristic utopian. Maybe I entioned this before, but the first ten chapters are never easy for me. It’ll get easier but I have to find my groove first.

@shannon Well, I was just about to quit for tonight, but I’ll stay if you’re here. Company is nice when writing is not cooperating. 😀 Whatcha up to?

@ingridrd It sounds like a good story! The one thing I’d recommend is cutting. 😉

It doesn’t need to sound like this, but this is to get your gears turning and point out what I think isn’t necessary. Remember, the point of a synopsis is not to explain a story, it is to sell the story. Information is only important when it is necessary. The only…[Read more]

@supermonkey42 I actually just beta read a novel where it was like this: the MC’s scenes in first person, and then other scenes in 3rd person. It rolled along fine and was very intriguing. So long as the reader knows who’s who, I’d say go for it 🙂

@ingridrd that’s great! I definitely want to read this one day 😀

Thanks, @lady-iliara 😀

I actually need to skedaddle myself…farewell!

(And to answer your question @shannon, I am not a “coffee hater” but I don’t drink coffee.  However, I absolutely adore coffee ice cream…especially Haagen Dazs.

Okay, I’m outta here.  😉

@audrey-caylin  Thank you so much!   Those are some great ideas.

@supermonkey42 @shannon @emily @daughteroftheking

Here is the new and (hopefully) improved version.

Fifteen-year-old Jaclyn Fallows’ world has been turned upside down—again.  That is about the only part of her miserable life she can understand.  The rest of it?  Not so much.  Sh…[Read more]

@shannon Howdy, friend!  *shovels ice cream into mouth*  *sighs happily*
