I don’t have any specific goals (besides trying to write as much as I can), but I’d like to at least try to write a poem and short story a month. I don’t know how well that will work out, though, especially since I’m even more busy than usual in the next couple of months. 😉
*holds up sword* But I will fight for the right to write! 😛 -

@zcpeterson
I love your poem! Overall, I think the meter should be a bit more consistent (for example, in the last stanza), but other than that, it’s a great poem. 😉Or can hold every bird in it’s flight
That would be “Or can hold every bird in its flight.” Sorry, had to fix that. 😀
@sarah-hI’m not very good at critiquing poetry though; Kat…

If you live in the Northern Hemisphere…
Happy Autumn!If you live in the Southern Hemisphere (@bluejay….)
Happy Spring!
What do you all of you love most about Autumn or Spring?-
@julia-r Thank you. It’s really weird because, going by the calendar we have been in spring for 23 days. *calendars* 😛 My favourite thing about thing about spring is that the next season is summer and I loooooove SUMMER!!! 🙂 🙂 No, I like spring too. I love being able to head outside and enjoy the fresh air. It is a beautiful day out there t…[Read more]

Well, I’d have to say, unfortunately, that autumn is my least favorite season. I like autumn, but I like all the other seasons better. The part of autumn I don’t like is when after all the leaves have fallen off, and the world is all barren and wet and moldy, like around November. I love the corn maze, apple-cider, and pumpkin cookie part of fall,…[Read more]

Oops, @bluejay, I forgot to tag you! Read my previous post 🙂

Yeah, I have to say that’s a pretty dismal part of autumn. The colours are always pretty though. 🙂
Pumpkin cookies sound yummy. Yes, do post the recipe. 🙂 *yummy*
@julia-r-
Speaking of recipes, here is my favorite soft pretzel recipe. These are so delicious! A lady in our life group brought these once and they were gone in an instant!

Awesome. They sound very yummy. 🙂

Autumn and spring are actually my favorite seasons, so I like pretty much everything about them. Let’s see…I love that everything blooms in the spring; all the flowers are sprouting, and the birds are back from the south. *sighs happily* I love fall because of the weather (at least in Ohio): not too cold and not too hot. I also just love the…[Read more]

Whoops! Forgot to tag you. @julia-r 🙂

Ohio (as you might remember, I live here too!) has awesome weather. It gives you just the right taste of each season. Warm and sunny in spring, hot enough to swim in summer, cool enough for corn mazes and apple cider, and plenty of snow in winter. My favorite season is spring, because it’s just so beautiful, and my birthday is in spring :). We…[Read more]

@hope I kind of have a reputation for crazy dreams… and for loving the most dangerous ones. 🙂
I (recently) slept in a 3 1/2 by 4 1/2 tent with one thin blanket and my oldest pillow to see what tight confinement would feel like. 😉 I’m blaming that on being a writer. I needed the experience. 😀
Although it paid off in dream-land too, since I…[Read more]

I really like it! The rhyme and rhythm are really good, and I love the subject of the poem. 🙂 Keep up the great work! -

@Corissa-maiden-of-praise
I’m the same way, except leaning more toward an introvert! Some days I really want to socialize and have fun socializing and other days I just want to sit in my room and read. 😛 So I guess I’m an extroverted introvert. 🙂 -

Well hello and welcome (officially) to the bestistest place on the internet! 🙂 What are some of your favorite books? POETRY! Yes. I like poetry. 🙂 I think I remember one of your poems that was posted on the website. It was a really good poem, I remember. 🙂

You know you’re a writer when you decide something specific should happen to the characters you’ve been reading about, and then you finish all the stories and it doesn’t… so you dream about it instead. 🙂
Sherlock Holmes, anyone?

MBTI is fun… and confusing. 😉
I’ve taken the test a couple of times. I’m kind of both an ENTP and an ENTJ. I’m not sure which one is stronger. I’m barely extrovert thought; some days I’m quite certain I would be introvert. 😛 😉

I used to write poetry quite a bit. Not that any of it was any good, but… I was published once. (I don’t know whether any of you receive Clubhouse magazine or not, but that’s where it was.)

@BlueJay I’m baaaaack! *smiles* If my estimate is correct, it’s about 8:15 p.m. your time. So I can go to bed and get up between your lunch (is that what you call your mid-day meal?) and your bedtime! 😉
I’m sorry if this seems a strange question, but what does a typical day look like for you? I’m terribly curious about these kinds of things. 😛 😀
