Hey guys! You’ve all done awesomely and I’m so proud of you! I have to call this as a time’s up, though, and send it through for submission.

Great…[Read more]

All right, I finished the last bit. Guys, we have one day left to edit! If you can, please pop onto the doc and read through it, leaving your suggestions. Here’s the link:

@steward-of-the-pen @christlover I’ll see what I can do to finish it.

@christlover That’s okay. Thanks for starting for us!

Would anyone be able to pick up where @christlover left off? I won’t be able to because I’ll be gone almost all day tomorrow, but I can hopefully help edit on Sunday.

We can do this, guys! *hands out mugs filled with everyone’s favorite motivational beverages*

@steward-of-the-pen

Thanks for the heads up! I’m going to read through what we have right now.

@christlover I’m dittoing Steward’s question about where this story is heading. 🙂

@christlover Do you have a plan for the rest of the plot? If so, could you outline it briefly here? If not, could we start brainstorming ideas to help you finish it? We’re drawing near to the deadline, so it would be good for us to tie up the story so we can focus on editing for the last couple days.

@christlover Yep! What Steward said. (If ever in doubt, scan over the instructions I put waaaay back at the start.) Also, I would assume you can describe other characters the same way you can for any other tense. Not going into their heads, but just writing them, yeah.

@pursuewisdom Oooh, also a cool idea. *adds to notebook*

Originally I was going to propose writing “You” to be the hero of an author’s story… basically the voice of the story giving “You”/the hero a pep talk… bordering on humor/fantasy. But it looks I’m behind and a lot of you here have established the author to be “You,” which is a great idea but beyond my current abilities, so I’ll just pop this…[Read more]

@christlover

(Disclaimer – I’ve never written anything good in 2nd POV :P)

Hmm… Since “You” is now established to be the author, I’m not sure how to describe other people from 2nd POV without being confusing. Perhaps you can give me an example? Because the voice of the story is addressing “You, the author” so I’m not sure how the voice of the…[Read more]

@christlover That’s the way the document is always set up. You can go ahead and work on it in suggestion mode, and @j-a-penrose will accept the suggestion as an edit later. It’s mostly set up that way so that she can keep track of what changes are being made, and so that the editing doesn’t get out of control. (Because we don’t always agree on…[Read more]

On that note…

If we haven’t started on a draft in 24 hours, I’m probably just going to start writing. Just so that we definitely have something to hand in. *fingerguns* Ideally, I let you guys write the first draft so that you can practice and grow, but having something happening is the no. 1 priority.

Volunteers,…[Read more]

As Christlover has said, guys, I reckon it’s time for us to get writing!

For all of you old-timers, (You’re over a year old, some of you. Yikes!) you should be pretty familiar with the routine, and it would be great if you keep things going smoothly through the rather chaotic drafting process that’s about to ensue.

The doc we’ll be writing in is…[Read more]

There you go! More than 24 hours, but it’s there. 😀

@christlover

@coggleton Knock yourself out!

@christlover Sweet! Give me 24 hours and there will be one waiting for you. 😀

@christlover Second person only. Don’t want to risk getting disqualified.

@christlover Yikes! But I’m glad it’s over.

He said that?? Wow… I missed that. O.O

Yeah… I do not agree with that.
