Can I quit my job and just write for a living? XD *wants to force time to stop so she can actually write something*

Oh the other hand, I did spend like two days researching and outlining this week, so…that’s at least progress, right? I named a few characters, nailed down a few plot ideas, and even managed to come up with a solid theme/big…[Read more]

Nice idea! Wish I’d known sooner! I’ve been outlining and doing research all day, so at least I’ve been productive. Named three characters, have two professions, nailed down a theme, a few big questions, and some possible ways to answer those questions. Also threaded out ideas for my MC’s goal and potential plans she can try to meet it, because of…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting This sounds like such a great idea! Thanks for making me aware of it!

Yeah, I have boards of creatures that help me with world building and a few that are like picture prompts and one for character inspirations, too. Love this idea!!

@gabriellepollack

Wait, what’s your time @scribbles??

Finally made it home. It’s bedtime, but clearly my master has prohibited such behavior, so…XD But, sadness! I left my 50ish words that I hand wrote at work :/

@wordsmith Woof, that’s a little low (per our normal; in no way meant to diminish the amazing work you guys have all put forth!!!)…I wish I’d remembered the word war sooner. Sorry, guys! I’ll do my best to get on tomorrow and pound out at least a few more words.

@brandon-miller What’s our current total?

Guys, guys, guys! I just pumped out 1432 words in like an hour! I haven’t written that much since June! (on a fiction draft) AND, I’m kind of excited about some of the ideas that just hit! I’m hoping I’ll have time to add at least a few more words, maybe another scene tomorrow when I get home. I won’t get…[Read more]

@scribbles It is! It’s nice to hear him sound more like himself. He’s still living life and that comes with stress and disappointments sometimes, but he’s much more…engaged for lack of a better word, and I miss him! It’s good to hear from him.

You’re such a God-send! I love you, girlie!

@brandon-miller Wow, really?! I can’t imagine staying in one place my whole life. That blows my mind! And thank you for your prayers!

Oh rats! The Word War!! When does this end?! Tonight or tomorrow night? *bawls* I wanted to help out with this one!

@ajaj2000 Hmm…I don’t actually. Sorry :/ Have you looked at the Snowflake method maybe? I’ve never tried it, but it’s an interesting concept, I think. Maybe one day I will.

@pookiemonster

Oh my gosh! That sounds like this old cartoon I’m obsessed with the Sunshine Makers!!! I’ll have to find a link and add it for y’all to see! (It’s like 7 mins long)

Well, y’all got this covered! I love what @wordsmith and @happyholly_c said in their first two posts.

I really like the idea of having a founding story, but that’s not something I think we could come up with before tomorrow! Such short notice! I’d want something like that to be well done and thought out beforehand.

Memory: Maybe less a memory…[Read more]

Ooh, I really like this activity!! It’s got my wheel’s turning and my brain on search and analyze mode XD Hahaha!

Oh, wow! I just noticed that this notification was like two weeks old…ouch..sorry for taking so long! XD

@scribbles Actually! I just went to see him over my fall break last week in VA! We got to visit all of the monuments in DC and had a lot of fun. We really enjoyed the visit! Aanndd, I got to meet his new girlfriend. Now, I don’t mean to say that I think his life is void without a girl or that I’ve only been praying for a new girlfriend (cause…[Read more]

@scribbles I loved those too!! I can’t wait til you read the Hagenheim series! They’re amazing!!

Exactly!! It’s best as a complimentary component. But, Dickerson handles it so well! She adds mystery and intrigue and a Godly focus that makes the romance compelling. Frankly, it’s a total guilty pleasure! I love her romances!

Mr. Darker, what makes you so aggressive? You’re almost rude sometimes. Is that intentional? Are you attempting to sever all ties to be less emotionally attached to the world around you?

What made you choose this profession? Or did you choose it? What is your purpose and motivation behind being an enforcer?

You seem a logical person. I like that.

Do you miss him? Your brother, I mean?

You seem…huffy. I don’t mean that in a bad way, but you short of shut down when people ask you questions you don’t like. Do you prefer to hide your fears and insecurities behind the flashy military uniform and titles or are you just…abrupt of speech? (You use “yeah” and “like” and “I mean” quite a…[Read more]

@brandon-miller I had 502. I posted earlier in the thread, but I’m not sure where it needs to be for sure, so…here it is! 😀 Final word count for CET: a whoppin’ 502 XD Plus three blog posts for last week that don’t count.

Oh, and guys! All 502 are for that story I was telling you I wanted to tinker with! Though…I’m at another impasse…

@scribbles

@wordsmith

Thanks guys 🙂 I’m excited for the next round! I hope to have things a little more settled down here and be able to chunk away more!

@brandon-miller do we have an announced winner for the word war yet? Cause BAM! Rillumen brung it! ;D
