Hi all! I just wanted to take a second here to remind all of us Parimians to review/comment/edit/whatnot on our guild’s draft that the very talented ESJohnson and Darth Pen worked on. 🙂 I see a few of us have already commented which is wonderful; if you haven’t, please look it over so we can make it the BEST!! 😉 (In other words, we need you.…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14, yeah, it was okay, but they were really good. 😛
That’s neat. It seems to me that it’s easier to learn a language if you have someone to learn it with. 🙂

J.A.Penrose started the topic Lesson 27 : Raving About Pacing in the forum Annual Theme Discussion 7 years, 11 months ago
Hopefully by now, (sorry newbies) you have got a fair grip on Pacing and Suspense.
Today, you have a super easy task. Name one text, (try to use one that you haven’t before in these lessons) and show how it used pacing and suspense well. Try to be spoiler sensitive!
To help clarify, a text can be a book, poem, movie, song, play, video game,…[Read more]

ESJohnson replied to the topic Guild War…6? in the forum Announcements 7 years, 11 months ago
Okay, everyone, how about this? The first few paragraphs are coming together!
(And @silverclaw-bonnetfolly , I may be able to incorporate some of your ideas! WHEEE! 😊😊😊)
Father had always told him that there were only two things in this world–light and darkness.
When he dreamed he saw neither.He saw blood and skin and bones, porcelain s…

@anne_the_noob14 I was just about to say homeschoolers would take over the world, and then you beat me to it. xD
Chorkneys are giant ride-able birds from the Wingfeather Saga. I definitely would recommend reading them. Definitely. Just ask @j-a-penrose how often I bring them up during the guild lessons. 😛
I’d say…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 No no! Thanks for pointing it out! I’m pretty awful at catching anything that’s less than blatantly, horribly wrong with my grammar, spelling, ect. I appreciate any help I can get! 🙂
@j-a-penrose Thanks for the tips! I’ll be doing more of that now that you have pointed it out, though I’ll do my best not to go overboard 😉

I love the Princess Bride reference in your signature line. A very fine movie and highly quotable. 🙂
Some of the best people I know were and are homeschooled. One of them is a CEO and founder of a Marketing Firm in Dallas. Many millionaires and entrepreneurs in your group as well.

@anne_the_noob14 As long as criticism is constructive, it is accepted here! (Also, you may well like this little thread here.)
Feel free to do any of the lessons whenever. I’m trying to get back on top of things at the moment, and seem to be getting there, so I’ll be giving feedback more regularly.

@e-jo3 Sweet! Can you give a basic rundown of the concepts in Inception?
@julia Yes! That is so cool. I love all of K.M.Weiland’s things. So much. When I’m in doubt, that tends to be where I go. *nods* I approve.
@steward-of-the-pen Some great starting ideas! (And Daeus is judging this one.)

@calebonline Ooh, cool, I like the idea of having the mystery about what caused the dream! To clarify, when I said the dream should be realistic, I meant we should make the dream seem like a real dream, rather than like events in real life (which would not be a realistic dream). I think it’s important to make it feel like a real dream because,…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14 No offense intended =P And as Ariella said, homeschoolers (or previous homeschoolers) unite!
@obrian-of-the-surface-world Cool, I’m also of Irish ancestry! I’m actually one of only a couple hundred people in the world with a surname derived from Clugston, and I happened to meet another of them in a different writing group. I’ve…[Read more]

@write-owl Cool, I like The Lord of the Rings, too! (And of course The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. Particularly The Silmarillion, just because I love allegory and lore. It also inspired me to write a creation story for my first book series.) It’s hard to name my favorite book, but I can tell you my two favorite series! The Wingfeather Saga and…[Read more]

Hi @anne_the_noob14 ,
Only by ancestry – Scotch-Irish.
I am American and a Texan. The O’Brian moniker comes out of my online novel with an MC which is in some ways an avatar of sorts.A character name Begglar within that story, who is fiercely and proudly Irish, chastizes the main character named Brian for failing to render his dialogue f…[Read more]
