“Um..him?” The girl drops the hand of the terror-stricken man.

No, not him. I didn’t know you were holding hands.

“Oh, I was talking about that guy.” Great. Now she’s annoyed. Really annoyed. And she’s going to take it out on her boyfriend.

“uh, neither, I guess?”

Say something. And not ‘I know how you feel’. People say that all the…[Read more]

pain shot up and down his right leg, overwhelming the other emotions that bombarded him. He categorized them almost unconsciously.

Anger, resentment,…[Read more]

My regular joke has never worked this well. Mara looks as though she’s seen as ghost. Usually, people just laugh and ignore it for the rest.

”Isaias always talked about miracles. He said they were still possible, but I didn’t believe him. But —“ Mara’s eyes are wide with shock as she gestures toward my legs. They still ache, t…[Read more]

Just did it 😄

That’s a good idea, thanks! I shall go investigate the plotting forum…

*enthusiastic hand clapping* Your writing in here is good, btw 🙂

@e-n-leonard I have determined to write my WIP and risk failing. I can always rewrite it when I’m a better author.

@calidris sounds good! Also, can’t wait to see your blog!

@emily-waldorf thank you so much!  I might actually end up using a combination of the two, depending on what need help with XD

@emily-waldorf

I want my WIP to be absolutely perfect, and I’m scared that if I write it, it won’t be…I know, not the brightest philosophy, but there it is. I love plotting stories! Let me know if you ever think another brain would help– though I’m sure you can figure it out yourself.

Same here… I have this lovely WIP I’m crazy excited over,…[Read more]

@Calidris

@everyone btw, would you like to have the characters go down one at a time, or get separated into groups?  Because I figured there could be some…rather entertaining backstage interactions (kind of like the ballet, for those who remember) XD

@calidris I didn’t explain myself well (a usual problem lol). To uncode the email address, remove the spaces and change the obvious words–dot and at– to appropriate symbols.

@calidris we could have them all together. Voltemand will refuse, and Tul doesn’t have any possessions, per se.

Here! My email address is emily waldorf 2021 at outlook dot com ( I coded it so robots don’t steal it.) Go ahead and shoot me an email. Or, if you’d rather, we could do it in SE. 🙂

@calidris @emily-waldorf (yep, that’s me!)

CALIX:

“The room’s shrinking!”

The scream scared me so bad my flinch sent me crashing forward and I bumped Val. She stumbled, which yanked me forward as the crowd thickened and squeezed us.

The walls in front rolled back, splitting as everyone left the room. The darkness in the new room as so thick…[Read more]
