@rolena-hatfield My story is about a ten year old German girl who is in England at the start of WWI.

@emma-flournoy Yes! I once read a book that I thought was based completely on historical events, and then there was a note at the end letting me know that the main characters were both fictional and yes this one person was real but not everything happened exactly the way we had to portray it in this condensed setting… and it’s just like,…[Read more]

@writefury
YAY! You’re back!!! Glad to have you on the forum again. 🙂 🙂 🙂

@writefury A BM topic would be AWESOME. Maybe then some of the people on here who’ve been missing out would finally get curious enough to check it out. 😀

@dragon-snapper I think it’s because it’s something we haven’t personally experienced, but that sounds enthralling. A sense of adventure, like you said. Just as the idea of unknown lands magnetized explorers like Leif and Columbus, so the idea of mythical things captivates us today. We’ve discovered our entire planet (well, we don’t know…[Read more]

YAY!!! YOU CAME BACK!!! 😀 😀 😀

Oh, wait, I’m technically one of the “new people,” aren’t I? 😉

So, here’s a re-welcome to the bestiestest place on the internet! 😀 It’ll be fun to have you around again, even if it is only off and on. 😀

And thanks for the ice cream @Daeus! 😀 *takes ONE* Don’t worry, @bluejay, no tummy aches today. 😉

6,097 words total at the moment. I managed to write 3633 words today so I’m pretty please with that.
Thanks for the encouragement @rolena-hatfield 🙂

@overcomer I got 2550 words written. I’m very pleased with that and I love where my story is heading. Thanks for writing with me. 🙂 Normally I don’t get to write with anyone on Wednesdays as I am out in (my) morning.

@overcomer Are you still writing?

@overcomer Yes, I am. Hopefully for some time. 🙂 I need to get my word score up.
@jess Thanks for writing with me. Yes, it’s grapes. (We don’t have crazy plants here in Australia) *dignified sniff* just kidding. We actually do have some weird plants and I’m sure I haven’t seen half of them. 🙂

@overcomer & @jess I can write too. 🙂

@hannah-krynicki
I actually was just in England this summer! I have some British friends, who I’m sure would be happy to help you out. Also, I do know a bit about British culture and accents (I’ve done British accents for some plays before), and I’d be happy to answer any questions that I can answer. 🙂

@Emma-Flournoy Indeed. 😀 I still won’t swim in the ocean though; I’m a bit paranoid about sharks. Not really technically afraid of them, I think I’d be willing to swim with them in an aquarium, but I’d much rather stay out of the ocean where I might be accidentally mistaken for a meal. 😉

@dragon-snapper: Read scripts! You can probably find some online. Like @mark-kamibaya said, learn the format, and create an outline. I know most movie scripts are center-justified, instead of left-justified, like a play script or novel. I would recommend starting by writing a short film, to familiarize yourself with the format and process of…[Read more]

@Emma-Flournoy Not quite… 😛 We have access to a decent indoor pool at a nearby hotel, and when I was younger we went over there quite often. Now, life prevents us from going very much, but we still go every once in a while. 😀

I got about 979 while you wrote with me. I had started earlier and so I end with a grand total of 1440. Can’t wait to read the ‘youknowwhat’ 🙂 Thank you for writing with me. I’m glad we were able to do so. @sarah-h
