@rose-colored-fancy,

Aww, thanks so much!!! I totally didn’t deserve that and it made my day. 🙂

(Also… very excited for this new piece you’ve posted… :))

@anne_the_noob14,

Yahoo, I can’t wait to hear from you! And best of luck on your exams. 🙂

@anne_the_noob14

Ahh, the dreaded monster of exams! I hope the exam doesn’t stress you out too much and that it goes well! <3

@obrian-of-the-surface-world

I like the new questions! I must admit, I’ve always been fascinated with the recurring numbers in scripture. 40, 7, 8, and 12, for example. I actually started using it in my WIP XD Seven main…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14

That sounds great, Livi!

Remember, the exercise only requires one scene, but if you want to do more, the file size might take longer to upload and share. Totally up to you.

Thank you for giving it a shot.  As for the questions, these are what one or more of us will answer for you regarding your submission.
But you are welcome…[Read more]

Per request, I have updated the Scene Questions below to include Rose’s suggestion (@rose-colored-fancy) …

…AND I have added one additional question that goes to the value of this fun exercise. 😎  12 Disciples – 12 Tribes of Israel – 12 Gates in the Heavenly City – 12 – Eggs in a Dozen… (Okay, I’ll admit I got carried away with this last…[Read more]

Hi Joelle,

Whew! It has been a long and busy week.
Trying to catch up on responding to posts.

So, let me clarify a little.  These snippets of scenes are extracted from anywhere in a longer work, so they will often be introduced without context or backstory.  We are just looking at the intrinsic value of a single scene, which m…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14,

Aw, thank you!!! I honestly had no idea what I was going to do with the prompt I got. XD

(BTW… you should submit a story of your own! I’ll listen and critique it…)

@anne_the_noob14

I’m in the middle of yours now. I’ve gotta pause and continue it later, but I absolutely love it! And your accent as well! And I agree with those who’ve said you read it beautifully. I find that your accent (and any nervousness that came through as you read) only added to the narration. It feels real. Feels dangerous. Feels…

@anne_the_noob14,

Awesome, thx for the feedback!! I may go over my questions again and try and make it more accurate. 😉

(And ha, you do seem like a good Lytt. It also seems like most of the writers who’ve taken the quiz got Valent, for whatever reason…)

And go ahead! If you have the time, let me take it. *begging puppy eyes*

@anne_the_noob14,

Aw, thx!! Welcome to the itsy bitsy community of yours truly. 😉 XD

*goes through everyone’s names ok Emily’s @millennium and @skylarynn was here for a while so Peter is…@CRAZYWRITER I THOUGHT YOU WERE A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
Oh uh HI @ANNE_THE_NOOB14!!! *bowls over with hug*

@anne_the_noob14,

LIVIIIII!!! WELCOME BACK FOR A VISIT!!! *tackles you with hug* And yes, we have some new peeps! *introduces Cathy (IDK if you met her), Neasa, Peter, and Emily*

Basically what has happened is a lot of characters were switched out and around, a few more people left, more people came in, the castle threw a lot of nasty stuff at…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14,

*thumbs up*

Thanks, I wanna critique of my WIP but I think I’m gonna wait first and do lore or random ideas (whichever hits me first) for a bit then and maybe get to my WIP eventually.
Ooh, that sounds awesome! My sister loves everything Middle-earth Tolken wrote, I’d love reading what spun off from that! <3

Welcome(ish?) @anne_the_noob14!

Welp…random thin…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14

Okay, did some more research! Here’s the new plan!

I haven’t found a single instance of a plant being its own antidote, so I changed it a bit. It’s fairly common for poisonous plants and antidotes to be close together. Jewelweed and poison ivy, or stinging nettle and plantain.

So, I’m going to use that so my characters can…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14
It’d been fun writing with you I’ll miss you, can’t wait to hear from you again <3 *bowls over with a emphatic hug*
@kimlikesart
I FOUND YOUR CANE!!! XD *immediately whaps someone with it*

@kimlikesart,

Ooh, I know that feeling. Ouch. (Where’s your cane? XD)

@anne_the_noob14,

We’ll miss you, but I totally get it. Thanks for playing along with me as I worked through Lytt’s question. 🙂

@anne_the_noob14,

Yay, hello! We are reigniting this forum. 😛 I’ve found it very helpful when I started something similar on a different website, and I was thinking perhaps you might too (but I also read your thing about Character Castle, so don’t be obliged to). Basically we all post stories/parts of stories that we’re working on and get…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14

Good it’s in a good way!

You will be missed as well, and I will eagerly await your occasional hello. <3

And aye… oy… I am. 😶

@anne_the_noob14

Thank you for the help!

Antidote from same plant: My immediate reaction to that is one of skepticism. I’m not sure how the flower and the root can be opposite and cancel the other out. But I don’t think it’s totally outside the realm of possibility. (I’m also not a botanist.   )

I’m going to put some more research into that! Tha…[Read more]

While Alessio asked permission to jump onto the first step, Isaac vanished before their eyes.

Nithel’s lips parted in silent shock, his caramel eyes wide as he glanced to Alessio. Then his shoulders straightened, and his gaze hardened on a form behind the youth. Dark in the haze of orange and red.

Zounds. He stared harder, brows lowering. Either…[Read more]
