possessing or showing courage or determination.”

Yeah… Sir Percy. 🙂

(First of all I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to respond to this.)

@r-m-archer, “I’m doing pretty well. Been a little busy lately. How about you?”

@corissa, “Oh, thank you so much! That’s so encouraging to hear. Yeah, I’m working on perseverance. It definitely doesn’t come easily, but I’ll keep pushing forward. Have you published anything?”

@eden-anderson, perhaps I should have said mild experimental cooking. Just like, “Hmm… I wonder what would happen if I put this in this…”

Yeah, I can be kinda disastrous in the kitchen too. Especially when I’m making something with my younger brother. It’s been a while since I’ve done anything really bad, but my brother and I did put six s…[Read more]

@eden-anderson, Okay, that does sound pretty bad. I love trying new foods from different nationalities! 😀 I just enjoy experimental cooking. 😉

@anne_the_noob14, That’s so cool that you can speak Italian! How long have you been learning it?

(Also, @i-david, I’m glad to know I’m not the only one here who likes pineapple pizza. 🙂 )

@eden-anderson, Aw, thank you so much! You’re so sweet and encouraging! 🙂

@bama-rose, Hope it all works out despite having a crazy week. 🙂 You go, girl!

@eden-anderson, my vote is yes! I think I’ll actually get my most writing done this next week, because I’m trying to finish the first draft of my short story before the end of November. Also I’m going to bump my word goal up to 600 words a day.

@the-fledgling-artist, advice for using Instagram? Hmm… the first thing I thought of is set yourself some sort of time boundary, for example: only getting on Instagram for fifteen minutes or half an hour each day (Or something like that), because it can be easy to get “sucked in” and spend hours on there. (*Sigh* Yeah, I know from…[Read more]

@pursuewisdom, he’s very specific. In each chapter he focuses on a different area of your story, for example: theme, characters, world-building, or plot. And then after you read through the chapter he has questions that you go through and answer and examples of answers from other stories.

@the-fledgling-artist, Haha, I totally understand. Because when people ask me, “How do you do that?” about my art, I always just kind of shrug, “I don’t know…”

And I agree that brushes have a lot to do with texture. Ah, now I’m all inspired to do some digital art. 🙂

@pursuewisdom, I would suggest going through the book, The Anatomy of Story, by John Truby. It has really helped me with my outline, deepening my characters, and figuring out my theme. I still need to finish going through it myself, though. 😛

@the-fledgling-artist, I think you did a wonderful job! I love how you did the sort of bubbly textures. (I’m still trying to figure out textures and stuff in my digital art. Any tips? 🙂 )

I do kind of feel like her left shoulder is slumped, but I don’t know whether you did that on purpose or not.

Those are just my thoughts. Take ’em or leave…[Read more]

@eden-anderson, How can you resist those chunks of sunshine? The sweet, juicy, goodness mingling with cheese and sauce. It looks like I’m out numbered though. 😛

Well… I made a pizza omelette a while ago that was actually pretty good. Kind of like lasagna with eggs instead of noodles. I also like dipping my french fries in my frostie, (on the…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14, Hey and welcome! Yes, I believe pineapple does belong on pizza. But I seem to like a lot of weird food combinations.

I like writing comedy too. My brother and I started writing a comedy (we thought it was hilarious anyway), but we haven’t worked on it in a while. 😛 Have you finished any stories?

@noahlitle, You go! Keep up the good work! 🙂

I got 1,786 words in this week.

@noahlitle, You’ll have to show me that video. 😉

@eden-anderson, Are we supposed to submit out word counts today or tomorrow?
