Well guys… it’s over.  :'(

BUT WOW NICE JOB!

Y’all did great.  (Especially shoutout to @wordsmith bc wow)

And to go ahead and third the things that have been said.  Win or lose (hopefully win) I’m really proud of the way so many of us participated.  Whether you got a few hundred or a few thousand words in, it was really great to have so man…[Read more]

I just got a quick 500… hopefully more will come this evening.

And to the rest of you Lumenites… If each of you wrote 1000 words this week, that would be a total of 14000 words. If each of you only wrote 2000 words this week that would double. And I could go on forever…

The p…[Read more]

Actually there is an exception for poetry, @pookiemosnter, so let your poetic self carry us to victory!  (Also, nice work doing the writing thing!)

@wordsmith

Productive night much?  Give yourself a round of applause!

I finished the first draft of the backup story I’ve been working on. The second half especially needs help, so please please, comment! I want to put the whole thing into a unique and creative voice. I want to make the story itself more subtle. And I want it to be beautiful. Will you have it and help me?

@aster Yeah, plotting… *nervous laugh* *tries to sink into the floor without being noticed* Plotting isn’t my strong suit. But, as I wrestled with the lack of plot in almost all my stories, I noticed a few habits of mine that were slowing me down. First, I would get a new plot bunny and immediately file it away as “some other story I’ll write…[Read more]

Rillumen! On the doc I revealed the secret work. We need help with it… I gave plenty of detail under the link. So take it away. Make the script lovely…

@aster  :O I love this story idea! So many beautiful themes (that if you did decide to turn into a novella) could be explored in more depth.  (Plus I’d love to know what else happens to Ace and Raven!)

My opinion is that it is great as a short story, but could be turned into a novel or novella is you so desired to explore their story more. :…[Read more]

@Wordsmith is right!  Time to circle the wagons and get moving.  Y’all have had some really good discussions and you’re working up a few great story ideas.  Time to pick one and start writing.  I’m not going to post a weekly activity so that we can get this knocked out.

Here’s the document we’re putting tog…[Read more]

Rillumen! I’d like to remind you that we have one week left to finish the prompt.. Let’s get this well underway! I’m working on a second person writing style… and I think that’s what we should go for. Please tell me your thoughts.

Also, something tells me Avensbeck is not lagging. We really need to pick up the pace!

RILLUMEN! ILLUMINATE THE…[Read more]

Okay, @aster! So, I’m not too familiar with those genre’s plots, but I think plot twists would help. Make it seem like the story is finished, then suddenly it’s not and there is more that happens. example: If there’s a villain, he seems like he was beaten, then suddenly he wasn’t and is ready to beat the MC with more power than ever.

@aster, what genre is it and maybe I can be of some help. It’s really cool you finished a novel!

Lumenian Warriors! I am on the doc, putting some stuff up… Please join me there if you can.

Lumenian Solders! We have the prompt:

‘Your prompt is: “Write any story you choose with the most original and creative prose you can.”’

Hahaha! This is interesting. Let’s brainstorm…

Here’s a doc for us to lay our thoughts down on: Rillumen Writing Prompt Worktable

Just hop down there and start laying down prose. Test your ideas, stret…[Read more]
