@winter-rose Well, I was working on editing my novel, but I finished editing the entire 1st draft, so yay!!!!! Then, I edited the short story for the contest (which I am open for critiquing if you want) Now, it seems that there is a very high demand for the Legend of King Daeus. Now that I’m not editing as much, I’ll work on that as soon as…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 aha, that dear old ugly monster of perfectionism. I’m still struggling with that too, but I am learning that it’s okay to fail. It’s when I let that failure keep me down and cloud my heart towards God that things become a problem.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 cheer up. Nothing is ever pointless. Our mistakes teach us by elimination. 😉 You know what doesn’t work now; that’s one more step towards what does.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 ah— the joys of introversion. 😛 I know what that’s like. Most of the time I prefer being by myself or with my family. Hanging out with friends (unless they’re kindred spirits) can be mentally exhausting.

@that_writer_girl_99 I’ve been reading what you and @kate-flournoy have been discussing, and while I didn’t actually read the Google Docs, I think you have a cool story going on. Elemental powers are a bit cliche, but I like the idea of a prison, with the Warden actually trying to protect the prisoners.
I know this hasn’t really been what you…[Read more] -

@That_Writer_Girl_99 um, great I think! ;P I’m wading through the latter end of the climax in my WIP, and though there’s a lot of work still to be done I’m very happy with what I’ve accomplished, which is a lot coming from a perfectionist like me. 😉
And life is… life. Very rarely will you catch me having a bad time of it… probably because…[Read more] -

@that_writer_girl_99, I like what you have so far. Honestly, to me, it sounds like a (long) short story or a novella/novelette. I can see what people are saying about cliches and things, and you have to be careful, but from what I’ve read, so far it seems pretty original. 🙂 I would add, you and @Jess have a habit of saying do not instead od…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 well, themes can certainly shift. It’s happened to me before. 😛 If you keep having that feeling, don’t be afraid to play around with it and figure out what’s off and whether you can fix it or just want to go with something else.
That’s great!
And no, it’s not. I’m sure this series is going to be awesome too, but what I…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 nope, looks great! I love the different facets of Matthias’ personality. 😀
As for Blake… I really think you want him inside the prison. That brings the battle directly to Kara where she is right now and sets the whole place in an uproar as conflicting beliefs and agendas collide all over about what to do with him. This…[Read more]

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I’m not a crazy LOTR fan, but I’ve read the books and seen the movies. I’m not a huge fan of epic fantasies, but I like elves, dwarfs, orcs, dragons, and that sort of thing. Also, I think the Shire would be an AWESOME place to live.
