Wyoh was being mean to me. : (

@theducktator

How many siblings do you have? I have five, and this is quite accurate. XD

I only have three, but I’ve been around big families and have been in houses with lots of children running around. XD I’m glad I’ve succeeded 😂

Ours is named Fluffy the Beast. XD

No way, that’s…[Read more]

Bruh…

Ok we’re gonna try this again.

Chapter 4

“I haven’t seen Antonio all day… He must not be a sophomore.” Hallie stood on her tiptoes, peering over the heads of the students who roamed the cafeteria.

“You trippin’? I thought you didn’t care that much.” Jennifer pl…[Read more]

@hybridlore @esther-c @theducktator

Thanks y’all!!

@whalekeeper @loopylin

Praying 🙏

@theducktator Yay! Im glad you’re feeling better. A lot of my friends and family have been sick lately as well. I’ve been pretty lucky that I haven’t gotten anything yet. Tis the season, I guess.

“Cookies?” Liko raised his eyebrows. “Who doesn’t?”

He paused, trying to remember what he was forgetting. His thoughts had drifted off to…[Read more]

But in six months he’s moving to Florida for college…..😭😭

At least I have a little brother <333 I love him to DEATH…I literally love him so muchhhh

That is so funny that your MC is named Hallie because (I know I’ve told you this before but Imma say it again hahaha) my little sister’s name is Hallie!!! so it’s just…

@ellette-giselle @theducktator

Okay, good. Thanks!

so, does this mean you’re gonna start posting chapters?! 😃

Not quite. Now that the core is taking shape, I’m getting ready to move into a more structured outline, and need to decide which of all the middle events I have planned will suit the story best. I also still need to figure out some of t…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @theducktator @ellette-giselle

Okay, I’m starting to make some refinements to my ideas, starting with some guiding principles. That involves pinpointing a one-sentence premise and pinpointing the theme of the story, as well as thinking about the arc I want Alan to go through. This is supposed to be a document that I can reference to…[Read more]

@theducktator

Ok! That will be something I’ll add to my notes. 👍

@grcr

Yay! Thank you!!

@savannah_grac2009

Girllll, you’re so sweet!!! 🤪🥰 Seriously, your reaction really means a lot. 😊

That was actually kinda my goal—I wanted this story to be someone’s comfort book, because I loosely based a few aspects of it off of my comfort books. (I’m no…[Read more]

Announcing the winners!!!!

First, like the previous judges, I will go over each story.

Shadow:

What a short, sweet story! You are sucked right into a conflict,…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @theducktator @ellette-giselle

My progress today. I wrote down on sticky notes everything I knew so far about the plot.

Pink notes are what I already had planned from Alan’s perspective when I started this. Green is Martha’s Perspective. The blue and yellow at the top are some alternative ideas I had for the beginning. All the…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Thank you!! 😊

@theducktator

Thanks!

Ummm… sort of??? I mean, I based it loosely off of my relationship with my older brother—we tend to get along for the most part and rarely, if ever, actually fight. Of course we do goof off, but half of what we goof off about would look so weird in a book. XDD

I know what you mean though, and I d…[Read more]

@theducktator

Yeah…I’ve never had someone directly mock Christianity. That’s the only experience I’ve had like that. Sheltered homeschooler here.  It shocked me.

I am also very sheltered!  lol. (I didn’t know how babies were made until last year. 9TH GRADE HERE!)

@theducktator

Only God has the power to forgive sins, and I don’t think it matters where sin is confessed, as long as it is confessed and the person repents. But if you have sinned against someone, then you should confess to them too.

???? I think everyone knows that. Even in the Bible when Jesus forgives sins, the pharisees say that only God c…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I doubt I’m any help right now.

No worries. I usually write without outlining as well. I’m just trying to speed up my writing and thought I would give outlining a try to see if it would help me out.

@theducktator

My “outlining” consists of writing random notes all over the margins of my paper as I write and forgetting about them.…

Hello again everyone! I have a question about some stuff today!

1. What are your thoughts…

@whalekeeper @theducktator @ellette-giselle

Just an update for you all so you know I’m still working on this.

I’m currently trying to explore further for my outline and have switched to paper. Right now I’m trying to get everything I know about the story onto paper. I’ve started and stopped this a few times now, but feel I have fallen into a…[Read more]

Chapter 1

“Why is it so hot?” Hallie Woodbury tucked a loose strand of ginger hair behind her ear.

“I only have two words that can answer that question: New. Mexico.” Easton straightened and tossed his light brown locks off his forehead with a quick shake of his head.…[Read more]
