@missfaeriekaiti, SADNESS. But also family in town is cool!
@corkybookworm, NICE. Both on last weekend and tonight. Keep up the good work.
@happyholly_c All I saw was your post and your signature and I was like… optimist indeed. 😛 It’s a good look.

@missfaeriekaiti, cool. And when can I expect the five point essay?
(jk)
But cool, snarky narrators can be hard to pull off (but are super common, esp in middle grade and YA), so it’s cool that Jackson worked. I might have to pull one off a shelf some time and look into it!

@missfaeriekaiti I never got around to reading the Percy Jackson books, but I know a lot of people liked them. Could you say what it was that drew you into them, or was it just kind of… generally a good series?

Hey guys, this week our weekly discussion is from Brandon Miller.
(oh. me.)
How and What to Read as Writers:
Okay so, we’re all writers, right? We weave words and spin tales and generally have a good go at reality. For most of us though, our love for stories started on the other side of the experience — as readers. Now that we’re writing, it’…[Read more]

@corkybookworm Work is going well…? It finally thawed and we started working three weeks ago. Those last three weeks have been 60, 50, and 53 hours for me so it’s busy to say the least. but I still love it
Beta Sun is coming. Very. Very. Slowly. But it is technically coming. Thanks for asking!

We’re glad you found us too and stuck around even through the dark months of Christmas and the Great Forum Silence. Hopefully you are able to keep learning from us (and us from you bc of how community works etc etc) and write more in the future. Also, I’m glad you found YWW, I’ve heard that’s a fabulous site!

@Rolena-Hatfield @graceabounds2129
New plan. Or maybe, old plan, newly applied. I’m going to work on this every morning before work, which means getting up @5:30. If you feel like it, ask me on any old day if I spent my half hour of writing in the morning.

Hey guys!
Have you ever struggled with trying to find time to write? Yeah, me too. Thankfully, Faith Blum has some pointers to help us get the most out of every second of our day (without killing ourselves doing it).
24 hours. 1,440 minutes. 86,400 seconds. That’s how much time we have each day. And yet, it seems like we never have enough h…[Read more]

So the deadline was actually Monday, so don’t worry about trying to find another story. (And don’t worry about missing it, either.) Thanks for your work on it and we’ll give it another go next month.
Thanks again!
