Okay, here it is:
It’s only a little different from the original.
Let me know what y’all think.

@kate *salutes back*
@r-j-karas *fastclap, confetti, cheering, balloons, candy, and a pinata.* Good work! I did notice that you didn’t say it was a fish at the beginning. I’m glad to hear that was on purpose. No wonder there were so few visuals in the beginning. 😀
@rosemarylouise I’m excited too!
Thanks, @chalice, @samuel, @rosemarylouise, @se…[Read more]

*waves* It’s me. Your friendly neighborhood INFP. The crazy one. The one who writes books.
And… yeah. That’s half of the guild. XD
*coughs* Onward. To state it simply, I’ve been wrestling with a particular issue over the last year and a half and could use some prayer.
Why didn’t I say anything before? Well… that’s kinda the issue. 😛 I have…[Read more]

@cindy I am praying!! Hope she is doing better.

@kate Thanks for all the input, and for volunteering to submit the final draft.
I do think we should try and vote as soon as possible, so we can put as much work into the draft before we submit it.
For those of you who haven’t read them yet:

So, when I saw the suggestion Noah posted about a fishbowl, my imagination started spinning. I just had to try it, and found it to be tons of fun. 🙂 For me, the best way to learn is just to do it—er, try to do it 😉 Whether my prose is a worthwhile start, only you all can be the judge. Whoever’s rough draft we use, the experience is the point, r…[Read more]

Okay, everybody.
Epic reveal:
I could’t decide on the title Fish: Child, or Child Fish. Votes would be appreciated. Of if you have a better title suggestion, that would also be appreciated.
The human might need a name, too, but I’m not as worried about that.
Other than that, edit away. Which kind of scares me, but this is going t…[Read more]

Hey guys, sorry I’m late this week. I had a lot on my plate.
Better late than never though.
When it comes to character development, one of the stupidest things I ever did was ignore backstory. (Head, this is wall. Wall, meet head.)
I’m still not an expert at it though, so I wanted to ask: how do you develop a character’s backstory? Along the…[Read more]

@noahlitle Don’t freak out. Cindy is weird, when she says she has been stalking you, she doesn’t mean it in a creepy way, she just means “I have seen you around, but not actually met you yet.” And hello from me, by the way 😀
@cindy Quit freaking people out.

@wordsmith And Avensbeck shall make Rillumen rue the day they ever challenged the mighty champions! We shall be called Rillumen’s bane in every legend henceforth!
*Crumples in a fit of laughter*
I like writing fantasy. What about you?
@Cindy *dies laughing* We writers are allowed to do that.

Noah Litle replied to the topic Go crazy with prose in the forum Announcements 8 years, 2 months ago
@kate Exactly! Who said dragons had to die by the twentieth century?
@r-m-archer I like the horror idea. Creepy is one of the more fun atmospheres to emulate.
Having that said, I also agree with @gabbyj. I think we should focus more on how we tell this.
By the way, hi, @gabbyj. I don’t remember meeting you. Or @cindy.
Nice to meet you guys.

@cindy Ah. Yeah, now that I see it written out I can tell that’s right. All I caught looking at Daeus’ version was that the “i” was missing. 😛

Hey Saxon Scribes,
If you checked our guild war calendar recently, you’d know that this is the date for another story prompt competition. I know our story (and we as writers) will benefit a lot if everyone participates and shares their input.
Here’s the prompt for this guild war:
Write any story you choose with the most original and creative p…[Read more]

Saxon Scribes,
Lo, guilt is fascinating.
I totally love it. The Scarlet Letter, Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov. These are like butter on bread to me.
Guilt is something we don’t see a lot these days. About the only times it’s used in fiction, it’s used poorly. The guilt isn’t fully built up to, doesn’t feel authentic, and leads t…[Read more]

INFJ
I’ve heard that my type is rare. I guess it’s true–I don’t think I actually know any INFJs personally other than myself. I really like the mystical, mysterious, introspective stereotype, honestly 😀 It makes me feel like an awesome, bearded mentor on a mountaintop– sort of a Gandalf-ly person. I like to think I’m helpful and give good…[Read more]

1.Tea or coffee? (The world breathlessly awaits your answer.)
Both. Coffee in the morning and tea for the rest of the day. Coffee with heavy cream keeps me awake and chai tea lattes keep me happy. 🙂

How did I become a writer? uhhhhhhh. Let’s see. I remember writing little stories when I was tiny, but I didn’t…[Read more]
