@dekreel Amen, sister.

I wonder when I’ll stop doing that. Because I’m always doing it. Sometimes, I make myself higher than others, and sometimes I have to bury my head in a pillow.

*instead of petting you, offers you a non-melted chair*

Just remember, that God made you unique, special and loved. Writing does not become your identity. It’s…[Read more]

Wow… that is a hard life. 😛 One of my characters used to be like that… no wait, there still are some.

(Of course! Once I edit those, but I’ll probably want people who’ve already read the first book. @dekreel You too)

@Dekreel basically what has already been said. I struggle with this too. Especially recently. I found an author whose skill in my chosen genre is so crazily far beyond my own I don’t dare dream I’ll ever reach it.

And much as I hate to admit this, that thought drives me absolutely bonkers.

It’s not that I’m jealous of him, just that I loathe…[Read more]

@Dekreel

Hey. Look. I’m not going to say you’re an amazing writer, but I am going to say that if you like writing and if it’s something you enjoy then it’s a gift. It’s a gift from God.

He’s blessed you with that gift and you don’t have to be a higher standard, a better writer, as good as ‘so-and-so’, because He’s given you the gift in exactly…[Read more]

@daeus Thankee. *bows* Well, I tried incorporating small ‘good’ things and it’s been a lot let dismal lately. I think I just let Ike gnaw on dismal’ness’ for too long. XD

@sarah-anson I really like the italicized bit you said there. *nods* I agree. Thanks!

@rochellaine oh yeah, if you could PM it…. I had a spelling error I tried correct then it didn’t repost… And it took me 20 minutes to type since I was using the phone. Yes I do have it saved on my non internet laptop. 😉

Also consider your self tagged to. 😄

@sam-kowal *is honored that you think me a hero in dragondom*

@sam-kowal

To Stan: No, I’m still a dragon. I can still melt chairs. This is just the human me. Worry not, Stan. We’re still dragon friends. *offers you a melted chair*

To Sam: 😛 (XD Still a dragon. Once a dragon, always a dragon.) I wrote 1144, so I’m signing out now. 🙂 Good luck on your new book!

@sam-kowal *nods* XD

Turns to Stan: Why aren’t you talking to Sam? I thought you two were best buds?

@sam-kowal *hands Stan cough medicine* Why, what’s wrong with him?

@sam-kowal Sweet! 😀 I should be on for another 20 minutes or so…

@that_writer_Girl_99 @winter-rose @catwing @skredder @dekreel @jane-maree Anyone on?

@Dragon-snapper I’ve recently started up a facebook page too, and I’m just learning the ropes. I normally share all my blog posts on there, and some updates on my WIPs (though I should do that more). I’m thinking of doing a ‘Saturday Snippets’ sort of thing where I share a piece of writing every Saturday, etc.

Other than that, I also second…[Read more]

@winter-rose Thanks! 😀

@catwing … I think if I successfully create a poem from that I will have set a record. 😂……….. This is gonna be tough. 😬

@rochellaine haha yeah.. hmm… Wellll… It’ll probably a few days just for warning. 😂

@catwing @winter-rose just to be clear. I AM NOT leaving. Shannon and Emily are. Shannon messaged me to tell me a few things we’d talked about and asked me to tell anyone who asked/tagged them.

I’ll still be around though not as often as before. 😉😊
