I’m doing some work on my novel/watching youtube. Anyone wish to join?

@merieshenanigans My retelling is of Beauty and the Beast! It’s contemporary fantasy, and I am actually handwriting it this time because that helps me get things done instead of stressing about what I’ve already written. So even though I still write slow, what I write stays there instead of getting deleted, lol.

Yes, being a TCK is always c…[Read more]

@merieshenanigans 你好! I’m Grace and welcome to the forum! I also enjoy fantasy, and my current WIP is a fairytale retelling 🙂

Your soon-to-be-named WIP sounds really cool. Can you tell me more of what it’s about?

Also I’m curious why you feel like you’re not an actual TCK… because I think it means different things for different people. Lik…[Read more]

I’ve missed our chats lately! I’ve just been so busy I haven’t had time for much writing, though I’m currently plotting a new novel and hope to make time to write during July Camp NaNo. How have you been doing? Is life normalish at the moment?

@jenwriter17 @seekjustice @alia @valtmy

Hey there!  It’s been forever!

I miss chatting with you all.  I see that none of us have been around for a little while, sadly.  I hope everyone’s doing well.

I’m going to see if I can appear here once in a while.  I have been neglecting writing lately, but I do want to get back to a somewhat regular pac…[Read more]

@leon-fleming This sounds like a great idea!

You’ve been tagging me in a lot of poetry-related things, haha… but I’m not sure I would consider myself a poet, except perhaps in the long-rambly free verse genre.

I think for this thread, I would caution that we check our hearts before writing, so that we’re genuinely glorifying God and not trying…[Read more]

@kathleenramm Yeah, I see what you mean about the incompetent hero being relatable. I think every person is fundamentally insecure about something, so having that played out in a book usually strikes a chord.

I like the forbidden love type (Romeo and Juliet, the song Rewrite the Stars, etc). I don’t know why exactly. It’s usually very feel-sy…[Read more]

I’ll be in and out on here for a while…Anyone on right now?

@seekjustice @rochellaine @alia @valtmy @michelle @selah-chelah

@kathleenramm

Ah, yes, mostly because they’re actual realistically relatable. 🙂  (I love tLotR as well, btw.)

Fav book by her? That’s tough. Probably the best two Scarlet Pimpernel books, The Scarlet Pimpernel and El Dorado. But they’re all so good…love Unto Caesar and The Hundred Days as well, among the rest. You? Or have you read any?

I have to leave now. 🙁 …

@michelle Hello! 😀 Sorry, I stepped away and didn’t see your message… What are you working on?

@alia @seekjustice @rochellaine @valtmy @michelle @selah-chelah @dekreel

I’ll be writing for a while…might be kinda in and out on here…Anyone on?

@michelle

Yeah, rather. XD

@kathleenramm

Story and character arcs in general, really. Chauvelin is such a malevolent, evil guy, but seems so sacrificial and kind on the surface. And he’s definitely gone down the wrong road, to get there. But he’s believable, realistic in the era and story, etc, which is rare for me and super awesome! That’s neat that you want to read it- I…[Read more]

@leon-fleming

XD Yeah

The Flash TV series. Actually, all of the CW TV series (Arrow, Supergirl, Gotham). I’ve watched all of them, and didn’t really enjoy any of them ( stopped watching Supergirl and Gotham because the content was awful). But I watched the Flash in particular almost obsessively because for some reason, even though logically I knew the plots were awful…[Read more]

@alia

Yes, I will, thx!

@michelle

XD Well, great job!
