@jenwriter17 Indeed it would. *quickly fixes that up*
Also, can everyone pleeeeeease be sure to swap over to suggestion mode when editing. I’ve made you all direct editors so that @sam-kowal can get that idea sorted.

*casually drops in the working tags for you* Mostly they only actually will tag if you type them out individually… so that’s a bit of a fault in the system. @jenwriter17

@j-a-penrose Oh, thanks for the reminder! to be honest, things have been so crazy that I’d forgotten about the war! O.O
So like I said, I don’t think I’m the right person to do this( the writing part) , but I’ll be here to critique, etc. @aislinn-mollisong was it you that wrote a piece along with me and Audrey that one war?

Okay guys! I’m going to be ducking in fairly regularly for a while to make sure you get some things started! *cheers* I’ve quickly whipped up a doc for you to work on, but for now I think ideas are needed. After all, we want to make sure your guild does awesomely, even though your actual Guildmaster isn’t here. I mean, if you don’t do awesomely it…[Read more]

*Speaks into a megaphone* Welcome to the third guild war!
For the next two weeks, you guys will be putting together a piece covering this prompt:
Write the most emotionally impactful death scene you can.
Now, I can’t help you at all on this one. I can’t even see the ideas on this thread, because I’m the one who’s going to be judging all the sce…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollisong I seem to have all my brilliant ideas right before I go to sleep… then I can’t fall asleep and end up staying awake for hours, tossing and turning, and thinking about them. In the morning I usually wake and then realize that they weren’t good ideas after all. Go figure. 😛

How does his past affect his reaction? Does his reaction spring from a specific event in his past, or is it the outcome of a certain u…[Read more]
