Ok, just curious, because I don’t agree on the necessity of physical baptism for salvation… what is your view of what happened with the thief on the cross then?

“One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him, saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!” But the other rebuked him, saying, “…

I really liked this piece of writing! The characters came across as realistic and I felt sympathy for Taylor. I especially liked how you handled the worldbuilding of the powers Taylor has–you allowed the reader to pull on the context to grasp the full extent of what was going on so that is wasn’t at all info-dumpy. Your prose were well done;…[Read more]

Best of luck, Wren! You got this!! < 3

Ari

Ligjt streamed in through high arched windows. Dustmotes drifted in the scattered rays. Voices hummed and bubbled as students slid into seats. Perfectly climbable shelves lined the entire far wall–although the school would likely not agree with that assessment. Ari hovered just inside the door.

The teacher’s smile…[Read more]

@writingwren

That sounds like a great plan! Hoping it goes well and praying you get motivation to stick with it!

Reading the last two pages while brushing my teeth would have been a horrible idea. Good thing I got distracted. *snickers wisely*

@writingwren
Hmm. Yeah, I had a similar thing going on for a bit. Your response, here are a few things I’d suggest:
First of all, I second (third? fourth?) what everyone else has been saying about finding your own process style. Once you know what to expect from yourself on the first draft, a lot of pressure can be taken away. For example, when I…[Read more]

@loopylin

Oh my word. Yes that’s a typo. Why do the ‘d’ and ‘f’ keys have to be next to each other?? XI

@beth-torres

Glad it gave you joy. I shall go fix it, thank you. You may resume maturity.

@loopylin @whalekeeper

I would like to point out to Ellis that Ari has not said he was going to class.

Ari

After another moment of hesitation, he finally managed to stepntowards the door. Perhaps walking with Moth would be enough. At the least, he knew where the chemistry classes were held. They wouldn’t be lost to the tangle of ordered…[Read more]

*Drowns in laughter*

I love them. Poor Lucien. I like that kid. And that is exactly what Ari sees.

@writingwren

Ooh, okay this is a really good question, but I think I might be able to help!

First of all, take the pressure off of yourself to find “that project.” Several years ago, when I was just starting to take writing seriously, I heard another writer call her project her “heart novel,” or something along those lines. That put in my mind…[Read more]

He jumped on the last sentence with a mix of delight and pride. “Our house has long stood for honor and we have fought to uphold it in all lands! Do you uphold honor as well?”

@esther-c

Thank you so much!

@whalekeeper @ellette-giselle

Let’s see if I can get a quick RP in before crashing or inventing insomnia for the millionth time.

I have no idea how coherent this will be.

Wilhelm

He looked back from the arming sword he had found. Wolfgang was glowing golden in the sunlight. His smile wreathed his face in pleasure at… what? His father’s…[Read more]

@loopylin

XD HAHAHA.

That is splendid.

I just loudly guffawed in my dorm room, forgetting my door was open. It is past sound curfew. I am not as sorry as I should be. XD

@writingwren

First off, here’s some applause for some impressive work you have already put into your writing! *applause*

I’d like to echo what Koshka just said. I’ve been where you are… ok, honestly, I feel like I am pretty much where you are but in a different boat. I have a series/epic saga that I love to pieces, but I finally realized that…[Read more]

@writingwren

First of all, you’ve been writing for two years and have worked on 6 drafts? That’s a lot of writing in not very much time, even if you didn’t finish or get far into some of those drafts. There’s a ton of ideas to work through and develop.

What you may be experiencing isn’t a lack of good Story. It might be a lack of understanding…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

yes we were totally taking over her intro post 🤭 thanks for moving it over here!

Haha I love that!

Oh yes, that’s a very good start hehe 🙂‍↕️ That’s so sweet though!! I hope everything goes smoothly with all the planning and such!

Wolfgang 

He let out a cheerful laugh. “Been to war! How do you think i am?! my papa went to war though, and he was a highly decorated hero before being honorably discharged for combat wounds. He fought in the Great War! I’ll go to war someday too I’m sure. If there are any wars,” he added with a grin.

@whalekeeper

oh yes! I forgot! I was going to RP and totally spaced it when I realized I hadn’t finished wedding programs. People could make memes about my life right now. 🤣
